As we reported yesterday, Matt Smith appeared on Sky News earlier this afternoon on a video link live from London’s Wembley Arena as the last minute touches were being put to the Doctor Who Live proceedings!

The arena tour kicks off at the venue tonight and the Eleventh Doctor actor will be taking a seat in the audience to watch its first ever peformance! He told Sky News that “the audience are the third character” throughout the show and that he hopes it will be ”very frightening” for them.

If you missed it or want to see Matt again, you can watch a clip of his interview on the Sky News website, in which he is pressed on how long he intends to stay in the role.

He explains: “As an actor, everyday is a privilege and an adventure, because the sets are constantly changing, the types of actors you get to work with are constantly changing and are really high calibre, so I’m taking it year by year, but I’m very happy in the role, and I think I’ve got a long way to go in it. I think I can get better and I’d like to realise that, but I don’t know. How long is a piece of string? It’s impossible to call – but I don’t want to give it up any time soon. It’s a thrilling job!”
