Missy is “very naughty” in Series 9
Michelle Gomez has revealed that fans can expect Missy to be “very naughty” in the new series of Doctor Who.
The actress will be reprising her role as the renegade Time Lady for the Series 9 two-part premiere, The Magician’s Apprentice and The Witch’s Familiar, and recently told the Daily Record that even she “was a bit shocked at her level of disdain”. “She has no boundaries that girl,” she teased. “Obviously I can’t tell you much, because I’m too much of a fan of the show to spoil the fun, but I can tell you that she’s up to no good.”
The character has been a huge hit with fans since she was introduced at the end of Series 8, so much so that she’s getting her own action figure which will be released soon. Michelle said: “The doll is on order. I’ve seen the prototype, which was a surreal day. She’s a funny looking thing. It’s exciting to be an action figure. Not bad going for a lady of a certain age.”

I only wish Missy hadn’t been The Master. I would have been much more open to her as a new Time Lady villain, but in Series 8, I was waiting to sense that she was The Master, but she’s so different that it didn’t happen.
I could have accepted Missy, but not as The Master.
