'Doctor Who' News: Peter Capaldi Speaks On When He'll Have To Give Up The Role of Doctor
The next season of the cult favorite show 'Doctor Who' is set to arrive later this year, and actor Peter Capaldi has had the pleasure of reprising the role of the Doctor yet again.
Fans would all agree that his take on the role is widely enjoyed, however in a recent interview with Mirror, the actor spoke on how his home life and life on set are completely different.
"I still watch the shows on my day off," he said. "It's great because I phone the office, ask for an episode, there's a knock at the trailer and it's presented. They don't think I am an iconic character at home. That's the difficulty. When I go home on a weekend I still have to make my own coffee."
He went on to express how much the show has become apart of his life, and how it can become sentimental at times.
"I live near where they record the music," he continued. "The first thing they said was, 'This is your theme'. I got all teary. I know I'm over the top but I never thought I would hear that. I use music to get into character sometimes including precious Doctor Who soundtracks."
Capaldi also addressed the fact that he won't be the Doctor forever, as it is a revolving role for the actors placed in it.
"I sort of enjoy this position I am in with a kind of deep Scottish melancholy because I know it has to end one day. I will cross that bridge when we come to it, which may be sooner rather than later."
It's unclear if the actor is hinting at this being the last season of him in the iconic role, but it does seem that he doesn't have many more ahead of him.
'Doctor Who' returns to BBC1 on September 19.
