The 415th issue of Doctor Who Magazine was released across the UK today (Thursday), and it is jam-packed with lots of Waters of Mars content to pass the time left until it hits our screens this Sunday!

Actress Lindsay Duncan, who plays Adelaide Brooke in the episode, speaks exclusively to the magazine about her time working on the show, and mentions what it was like filming alongside David Tennant.

“His energy levels are so high,” she said. “You think, oh God! In terms of my character, but also in terms of myself, the actor, I desperately wanted to keep up with him, but I have to admit it - I can’t run as fast as him! But I gave it a good shot. I didn’t want Adelaide to drop the ball. I didn’t want her to show any kind of weakness…”
