Matt Smith Discusses Future After DOCTOR WHO with Craig Ferguson

It's almost the end of Matt Smith's era as the Eleventh Doctor on Doctor Who...and he's trying to prepare for the moment.

Days after showing up for the Doctor Who panel at San Diego Comic Con, Smith returned for his fourth appearance on CBS' The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson.  Last night's segment opened with a clip from the Doctor Who Series Seven finale, "The Name of the Doctor," showing the cliffhanger of John Hurt introduced as "The Doctor" that teases the upcoming 50th Anniversary Special.

Smith entered wearing a rather dapper grey Christian Dior suit and still sporting considerably shorter hair that was cut and shaved for the filming of Ryan Gosling's movie How to Catch a Monster.  He and Ferguson briefly discussed their time at the Doctor Who panel, which Ferguson moderated, and how the crowd of 7,000 people "went mad" for the 50th Anniversary Special trailer that was shown exclusively at the convention.  Smith mentioned that the trailer has yet to be leaked online, because showrunner Steven Moffat asked everyone not to, but the rest of the panel can be seen HERE.  Ferguson brought up the considerable fan ire from Whovians that weren't able to attend the panel and have been prevented from seeing the trailer, so Smith and Ferguson apologized on behalf of the panel.

When asked if he was done filming Doctor Who, Smith confirmed he comes back for one more episode, the 2013 Christmas Special that will feature his Doctor's regeneration scene into the Twelfth Doctor.  Smith thanked Ferguson for having the miniature TARDIS replica on his desk, which Ferguson replied "That's actually the outside of this studio" in a nod to the TARDIS being bigger on the inside (or smaller on the outside).

Ferguson asked Smith if he plans on moving to America to become a film star after leaving Doctor Who.  "I'll try," Smith responded, "I'll move to America and have a go."  Smith also mentioned that he would rather live in New York than Los Angeles, if only because he hates to drive in Los Angeles.  Smith then name-dropped his friend Firefly and Castle actor Nathan Fillion, saying "I just turned up at his house, he made me some lunch and he was like, 'Do you wanna borrow my car?'"

Ferguson brought up the subject of Smith having no privacy in Britain, which Smith shrugged off.  "Well, I don't know about that," he said.  "Listen, the closest I'll get to being a rock star is Hall H in San Diego."

Asked if he was nervous about leaving the role of the Doctor behind, Smith responded, "I'm sad, but you know, one has to move on.  You can't do it forever."  Ferguson cheekily suggested it was time for Smith to do some slasher movies or maybe porn.

During a few times in the interview, Smith kept accidentally touching Ferguson's leg with his hand, which caused Smith to recall a game he used to share with former Doctor Who actress Karen Gillan.  "It would be the first day on set for any actor, it could be (Michael) Gambon, it could be anyone, and they come onto set and every day and it's called The Uncomfortable Touch."  He then described how you take the hand of the eager guest actor/actress, start casually talking to them, and see how long it would take for them to pull their hand away.

Smith later brought up that he "had no idea that William and Kate (the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge) had a baby...until just now" when he discussed the subject with Ferguson's makeup people.  "You're the worst British person in the world," remarked Ferguson.  Smith mentioned that he recently met Prince Charles, who stopped by the Doctor Who TARDIS console room set with his wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall.

Ferguson closed the segment by telling Smith how excited and proud he was of Smith's tough decision to leave Doctor Who.  "Listen, because you've been so nice to me and you've got the TARDIS on your desk," said Smith, "and you've always supported the show...If I ever, you know, come into any success and fame and win an award, I'll come and see you first."

"Well, you'll regret saying that," replied Ferguson.

DOCTOR WHO's Jenna-Louise Coleman Chats with Craig Ferguson

As if we needed another reminder that Doctor Who continues to move on, actress Jenna-Louise Coleman, who plays enigmatic new companion Clara Oswin Oswald, appeared last night on CBS' The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson.  This was Coleman's first appearance on the late night talk show, as part of her week in the United States to promote Doctor Who Series 7B that begins on Saturday, March 30th on BBC America.

Ferguson introduced the segment with a brief clip from the opening episode "The Bells of Saint John," featuring Clara and The Doctor riding a small motorbike across Westminster Bridge in present-day London.  He then remarked to Coleman about how she is in the series as Clara.  "You're the sauciest of all the Doctor's companions, if you don't mind me saying so."  He then added, "And by saucy, I mean, I don't just mean, you know, 'Oooh lovely, look at her, she's saucy.'  I mean, like saucy as in you've got a bit of yeah, a bit more moxie."  "She's not afraid to ask why," replied Coleman.

Ferguson then complimented Coleman on her accent, observing that she was from the north in England.  Coleman confirmed that she was from Blackpool, Lancashire, which Ferguson described as "The Las Vegas of Britain, sort of, a little bit."

He then shifted the conversation back to Doctor Who, but mispronounced the series as Doctor Hugh, which encouraged him to explain as "It's like Doctor Who except it's Hugh Laurie."  Coleman remarked that Hugh Laurie was a doctor as well, so Ferguson followed up with "Well, he played House, so it's like Doctor Hugh.  He doesn't travel through time but he goes to the hospital and back again to his house."

Ferguson then mentioned the small TARDIS replica he keeps on the corner of his desk.  "I didn't just put that there for you," he said to Coleman.  "I'm a big fan of Doctor Who and that one there is bigger on the inside."  When Coleman asked to look inside, Ferguson initially rebuffed her because she wasn't his companion, but soon relented.  "But you need to update it.  See, we have a new TARDIS now," said Coleman, pointing out that the TARDIS interior was recently changed in the Christmas 2012 episode "The Snowmen."  "Well, this one will be fine," Ferguson replied.  "It gets the job done.  Thanks for criticizing my TARDIS, new girl on Doctor Who."

When asked if she watched Doctor Who when she was little, Coleman said that she didn't because it was never on.  Ferguson realized this was during the years between the series being cancelled in 1989 and its eventual return in 2005.  "I was denied that privilege as a child," said Coleman.  Ferguson noted, "So you won't know what to look out for -- Daleks, Cybermen, the statues that when you blink they kind of come at you..."  "I know about them (The Weeping Angels)," replied Coleman.  "Steven (Moffat) has one in his garden."

Ferguson finished the segment up with a traditional awkward pause, which Coleman remarked was one of her biggest fears growing up because awkward silences make her twitch.  "Really?" asked Ferguson ominously.  "Then's let's lean into it a little more, shall we...?"  After more awkward pausing, Coleman slightly whimpered, "I feel so uncomfortable."  Ferguson smiled and replied, "Then you've finally arrived at this show."

Karen Gillan Shares Life Post-DOCTOR WHO with Craig Ferguson

Karen Gillan may be gone from Doctor Who, but it looks like she'll always have a place on CBS' The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson.

On her twenty-fifth birthday, the actress returned for third appearance on the late-night talk show to promote the Doctor Who Series Seven, Part One DVD set that was recently released.  A clip of her final on-screen appearance in the episode "The Angels Take Manhattan" was shown, which featured the sad graveyard scene where Gillan's character Amy Pond allows herself to be touched by a Weeping Angel and disappears back in time.

As Ferguson displayed the DVD set to the audience, Gillan remarked that star Matt Smith complained about her being too heavy for him for the set's cover image of the Doctor carrying an unconscious Amy Pond.  "He's a thin gentleman," quipped Ferguson with a cheeky smile.  "I mean, very attractive but he's kinda got that 1970s David Bowie thing going on."

Gillan then shared what was going on in her life since leaving Doctor Who.  After filming Oculus, a "kind of horror" movie, in Alabama, she's obtained a legal visa to remain in the States and has moved to Los Angeles.

The actress later sang a Gaelic song with Ferguson's robot sidekick Geoff Peterson and was warned by Ferguson about the Los Angeles sun affecting her pale skin.  "Yeah," replied Gillan, "I'm gonna get more freckles and then they'll join up and then I'll be completely ginger."

Matt Smith Makes Bowler Hats Cool on Ferguson's LATE, LATE SHOW

Matt Smith wears a bowler hat now.  Bowler hats are cool.

Making his third (Third!) guest appearance on CBS' The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson last night, Doctor Who star Matt Smith returned to the late night talk show under the pretense of promoting the upcoming release of Doctor Who Series Six on DVD and Blu-Ray on November 22nd, the day before Doctor.  Of course, Smith was in town to accept the Best Sci-Fi Actor award at the Spike TV Scream Awards held on October 15th at Universal Studios, but does it really matter?  I think not.

This time, the featured Doctor Who clip preceding Smith's introduction came from the Series Six finale, "The Wedding of River Song," showing the Live Chess match between The Eleventh Doctor and Gantok.  Smith arrived wearing a black bowler hat and discussed his acceptance of the Scream Award, saying that after he accepted the award on stage, some show representative took the award away from him backstage and told him they would engrave it and send it back to him later.

Smith also mentioned that he had just finished filming the untitled 2011 Doctor Who Christmas Special and once again brought up the campaign to get Ferguson to appear on Doctor Who at some point.  Ferguson shrugged at the subject, remarking "I'm too busy, so they (the showrunners) can say 'Good.'"  The host also fretted that Whovians will be mad at him if he's not good.

After flashing the Series Six DVD to the camera for a very brief second, Ferguson ended the segment with offering Smith a Big Cash Prize of $50 if he answered the question of whether the traditional "Jack and Jill" nursery rhyme is actually about Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI of France.  Smith said that was false, but Ferguson said that it was true (even though this is only a possible theory and the rhyme's true origins remain unknown).  Regardless, Ferguson gave Smith the $50 anyway, but as the show ended, Smith gave the $50 to a pair of visiting Swedish women that were featured at the beginning of the program.

Matt Smith Returns to Ferguson's LATE, LATE SHOW

Well, better late than never.  Of course, "late" is a very relative concept to a Time Lord...

Doctor Who star Matt Smith finally returned to CBS' The Late, Late Show With Craig Ferguson last night after a scheduling delay that pushed the airing of his recorded interview back to Friday from four days earlier.  Looking considerably more relaxed than his first appearance on the talk show last November, Smith was introduced to Ferguson's quick impression of the Doctor Who opening credits with the miniature TARDIS replica and a clip from the first Oval Office scene of the first episode of Series Six, "The Impossible Astronaut."

The interview opened with a brief discussion of Smith's recent appearance at the San Diego Comic Con and how Doctor Who is gaining more mainstream popularity in America.  When asked to describe the show to an American who had never seen it, Smith remarked, "It's about a man who time-travels through the universe, saving different races that live on sort of different planets, and sort of sweeps up hot companions and takes them on the way."

Smith then turned the tables on Ferguson, asking him how he would describe it.  "I would describe it in the form of a song," Ferguson replied.  Smith proceeded to start beatboxing a rhythm, resulting in the following song:

My Who main man is Doctor Who
and he goes from a planet that goes to you
He comes down and sweeps up your hot companion
and takes them off to...a place in your area

As Ferguson brought up the subject of a Doctor Who film, Smith commented, "Yeah, you know...I think one day...I think these things take a long time.  And they'll probably cast Johnny Depp...I'll probably be dead or something like that."  Ferguson argued that casting an American in the role would probably be as popular as casting an American in the role of Sherlock Holmes...except for Robert Downey, Jr.  This exchange led to the subject of accents, giving Ferguson's robot skeleton sidekick Geoff Peterson the opportunity to go "Exterminate!  Exterminate!" in a quick impression of the Daleks.

Ferguson later remarked that he wants to appear in a Doctor Who episode, something which I personally feel should happen considering everything Ferguson's done to promote the show in America over the past year.  "I've decided I want to make that happen, too," said Smith, "and guess who's here?  The executive producers are backstage."  Smith then remarked about having a conversation about this, mentioning that Ferguson doesn't get much time off.  Replied Ferguson, "But you put me in Doctor Who, I'll (Censored) quit this."  If the producers were indeed backstage, I have to think there was some genuine discussion about letting Ferguson appear on Doctor Who, if only in a cameo similar to Meredith Vieira's upcoming appearance.

An "awkward pause that shifted through the space/time continuum" took place minutes before the traditional close of Ferguson's interviews when Ferguson brought up how Smith had failed to call Ferguson.  "It's like time and space have gone nuts," said Ferguson.  Because of the earlier awkward pause, Smith opted for the mouth organ close to the segment, sharing a harmonica duet with Ferguson.

Karen Gillan Returns to Ferguson's LATE, LATE SHOW

CBS' The Late, Late Show With Craig Ferguson just can't quit Doctor Who...or is it the other way around?

Currently visiting California for the Doctor Who panel at last weekend's San Diego Comic Con, actress Karen Gillan made her second appearance on The Late, Late Show last night under the pretense of promoting the Doctor Who Series Six Part One DVD release.  A clip from the upcoming episode "The God Complex" was shown, showing the same "Don't talk to the clown" footage that debuted at the Comic Con panel.  When asked about attending Comic Con, Gillan remarked that she "didn't expect the scale of it."

And once again, Craig's miniature TARDIS replica that he keeps on his desk found its way into the interview.  When Gillan started listing from side to side from laughter during the conversation, Ferguson began playfully mocking her actions and then brought in the TARDIS replica to simulate the image of the TARDIS being buffeted by the time vortex or what have you.  Gillan, apparently forgetting about her previous encounter with the TARDIS replica, oohed with interest as Ferguson joked about it being "bigger on the inside."

The actress also mentioned that she's staying in Los Angeles for a brief time, expressing an interest in surfing (although she claimed to be scared of ocean waves) and trying out the recent fad of hydro-powered jet packs.  Also, the subject of the porn name game came up. where you take the name of your first pet and the street you grew up on to create your fake porn star name.  When asked, Gillan said that her porn star name would be "Fuzzy Springfield Gardens."

When given the show's traditional choice of ending the segment by either depicting an awkward pause or playing a mouth organ, Gillan opted to let Ferguson choose, which resulted in a grateful (or perhaps somewhat opportunistic?) hug.  Gillan once again showed her comedic skill giving a slightly awkward pause, followed by a brief random set of notes on the harmonica.

The delayed return of Matt Smith to The Late, Late Show that was originally planned for Monday, July 25th is now currently scheduled to air on Friday, July 29th, while poor Arthur Darvill sits at home and twiddles his thumbs...

Neil Gaiman Shares DOCTOR WHO Memories With Craig Ferguson

Appearing on CBS' The Late, Late Show With Craig Ferguson last night under the pretense of promoting the tenth anniversary edition of his novel American Gods, writer Neil Gaiman instead spent most his 14-minute segment talking about the world's longest-running science-fiction series, Doctor Who.

Gaiman, of course, wrote the recent Series Six episode "The Doctor's Wife," which featured the soul of the TARDIS being downloaded into the body of a woman called Idris.  Ferguson, who has proven to be quite the Doctor Who fan in recent months, admitted that he hadn't seen "The Doctor's Wife" yet but that the episode was on his DVR.

The two gushed over Matt Smith's performance as the Eleventh Doctor.  Gaiman remarked, "He's wonderful.  He actually plays this thing of being nine hundred years and eleven at the same time."  He also mentioned Smith's considerable chin and gave Ferguson the small spoiler that there was one chin joke included in his episode.  "It was a feeling of such peculiar power getting to write Doctor Who."

Gaiman then reminisced about watching classic Doctor Who as young as the age of four, recalling how other kids at his nursery school would bend straws in their bottles of free school milk and go around saying "I-will-kill-you.  I-am-a-Da-lek!"  "I don't know what this is..." said Gaiman, with Ferguson finishing his sentence, "...but I have to be a part of it."

"And three weeks later," Gaiman continued, "I'm watching it from behind the sofa, because there was a shared children's knowledge that they couldn't see you if you were behind the sofa.  We knew that the television was a window and monsters could look out of it, but if you were behind the sofa, they'd just think, 'There's nobody there -- It's just a sofa.'"

The writer also mentioned that the first mythology he ever loved was Doctor Who and that for him, he's always preferred the Daleks over the Cybermen.  After a brief discussion about his beekeeping hobby, he ended the segment by opting to go with the very British awkward pause but asked that the TARDIS model on Ferguson's desk be included in the shot.

Craig Ferguson Chats Up DOCTOR WHO's Karen Gillan

At last, the holy trinity of current Doctor Who stars appearing on CBS' The Late, Late Show With Craig Ferguson is now complete.

First, it was the Eleventh Doctor, Matt Smith, followed shortly by Professor River Song, Alex Kingston.  So the next logical choice to appear on the talk show was Amy Pond, played by actress Karen Gillan, as she joined Ferguson last night to help promote the Series Six premiere of Doctor Who on BBC America.

Gillan was introduced after a brief clip from the episode "The Impossible Astronaut," where the Doctor tries on an astronaut helmet and geeks over how cool it is.  Immediately, she became exicted that Ferguson had a miniature TARDIS replica on his desk and Ferguson, a fellow Scot, knowingly smiled and remarked that yes, he was aware of Doctor Who.

Mentioning that "The Impossible Astronaut" was partially filmed in Monument Valley, Utah, where part of the movie Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade was also shot, Gillan confessed that she has only seen the latest of the four Indiana Jones films, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.  She then said she has been receiving some flack for it...and rightly so, I'd like to add on a personal note.

Gillan discussed growing up in Inverness, located in the Highlands of Scotland, and even claimed to have seen the Loch Ness Monster at one time.  Of course, longtime Doctor Who fans already know that she wasn't the first companion to see the Monster.  She then remarked on currently living in Cardiff and London during filming for Doctor Who and that she had to audition for the role of Amy Pond.

Other brief topics of note during the interview included discussion of whether there could be a female or an animal Doctor and Gillan's mum being a major Whovian, right down to owning some Dalek Bubble Bath.

So when is it Arthur Darvill's turn to appear on the show, Craig?

Ferguson's LATE, LATE SHOW Goes to Gallifrey 22

CBS' The Late, Late Show With Craig Ferguson is becoming mandatory viewing for Doctor Who fans.

First, the late-night talk show had "Doctor Who Night" with current Eleventh Doctor Matt Smith, then Team Ferguson followed that with an appearance by Professor River Song, played by Alex Kingston.  So what better place to go next than Gallifrey 22 in Los Angeles, one of the largest Doctor Who fan conventions.

In a segment titled "Who's Who??" that aired on last night's episode, frequest Late, Late Show guest and fellow Whovian Chris Hardwick and Craig Ferguson's assistant Bridger went to Gallifrey 22 and recorded some footage from the convention hallways.  Dressed as the Tenth Doctor, Hardwick introduced non-fan Bridger to the weird and wonderful world of Doctor Who, briefly meeting convention director Shaun Lyon along with others dressed as a Weeping Angel, Amy Pond starting to transform into a Weeping Angel, a couple more Amy Ponds wearing the sexy policewoman uniform from "The Eleventh Hour," a vampire bride from "The Vampires of Venice," the Eleventh Doctor, a baby Eleventh Doctor, and the aged Tenth Doctor from "Last of the Time Lords" who was introduced as Larry King.

And of course, there was a short encounter with a Dalek, giving Hardwick the opportunity to recite the classic line used by multiple Doctors, "When I say 'Run,' run!"  The segment ended with Bridger, now fully embracing Doctor Who fandom with an Eleventh Doctor fez and a Fourth Doctor scarf, emerging from the TARDIS along with several costumed convention attendees as shown above.

And thanks to Flydalenorth, the woman above who was dressed as a nicely obscure "Bubble Wrap Zoe" from "The Five Doctors," here's the actual segment for your enjoyment...

DOCTOR WHO's River Song Reveals Spoilers to Craig Ferguson

Craig Ferguson, host of CBS' The Late, Late Show, reached out again last night to what has to be a growing amount of viewers that are also Doctor Who fans by finally airing his now-legendary musical rendition of the Doctor Who theme that he was unable to show last November.  The cold open was to be featured as part of "Doctor Who Night," which featured an appearance by current Eleventh Doctor Matt Smith, but was unable to be shown because rights to use the theme music had not been properly cleared with the BBC.  Thankfully, though, the cold open not-so-mysteriously leaked onto the Internets a couple of weeks later and received quite a bit of love from Whovians worldwide.

And as if that wasn't enough to make a Whovian's aunt giddy, there was also an appearance by none other than Alex Kingston, the actress who plays the enigmatic River Song...



Kingston was introduced with a great clip from the Doctor Who episode "The Big Bang," where River chides the Eleventh Doctor about wearing a fez and then, with the help of companion Amy Pond, proceeds to blast the fez out of existence with a energy pistol.  From there, Kingston and Ferguson bantered about such topics as Kingston's curly hair and a rather cheeky and flirtatious digression on Rampant Rabbits.

Eventually, the interview returned to Doctor Who, where Kingston mentioned that the production team have normally been able to work in secret away from prying Whovians, but ended up being found during the show's recent filming in Utah.  When asked about which Doctor she grew up, Kingston smiled and said she "loved Jon Pertwee," who portrayed the Third Doctor from 1970 to 1974.   She also managed to work in her "Spoilers" catchphrase into the conversation and confirmed that the upcoming Series Six will examine who River Song really is.

Craig Ferguson Leaks the Doctor Who Night Opening Number

Craig Ferguson, host of CBS' The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson, has officially earned a cherished place in Doctor Who history.  Earlier today on Twitter, Ferguson posted the followed message:

@CraigyFerg  http://tinyurl.com/2bos8gq oh no, the Dr. Who clip leaked! I'm furious! When I find out who did this... #leaktheclip

Yes, it's the opening musical number that Ferguson had originally planned to show during his recent "Doctor Who Night" episode on November 16th that featured an appearance by current Doctor Matt Smith.  At the time, Ferguson was prevented from showing the recorded number because his staff had failed to clear the legal rights to use the Doctor Who theme music in time for the broadcast.  However, he also mentioned what a shame it would be if the opening somehow found its way onto the Internets...

...and so it has.  Thank you so much, Craig!

Doctor Who Night on THE LATE, LATE SHOW WITH CRAIG FERGUSON

In a gleeful fit of what can only be described as surreal madness, Craig Ferguson devoted an entire episode of CBS' The Late, Late Show to "Doctor Who Night."  Yes, for one night only, insomniacs all over mainstream America were introduced to the wonder that is the world's longest-running science-fiction series, Doctor Who.


All did not go as planned, however.  Ferguson opened the episode with a disappointing apology that his original plan posted on Twitter about a special musical rendition of the classic Doctor Who theme complete with dancers in costume and puppets had been cancelled because legal rights to use the theme music had not be cleared in time for the studio recording.  Yes, once again, William Shakespeare was proven right about lawyers.  Personally, I blame The Valeyard.

Still, Ferguson pressed on, making jokes about how the movie Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure ripped off Doctor Who, comparing the concept of the Doctor's ability to regenerate his body into a completely new form to Cher, and suggesting an Odd Couple-like TV series starring his prop sidekick Geoff the Robot Skeleton and a Dalek that was positioned next to Geoff in the studio.  The Dalek, naturally enough, would be the Felix Ungeresque neat freak. 

Actor, writer, comedian and apparent Whovian Chris Hardwick was also on hand throughout the episode beginning with the tweets and e-mails answering segment.  Hardwick and Ferguson bantered on various subjects, including the hotness of current Doctor Who companion Amy Pond (as played by actress Karen Gillan) and Hardwick later offered up his girlfriend to Matt Smith simply because he's the Doctor.

Just over halfway through the episode, current Doctor Who star Matt Smith finally appeared following a clip from the episode "The Vampires of Venice" featuring the Eleventh Doctor encountering the Calvierri girls and demanding that they tell him their entire plan, which of course, fails to work.  An odd choice of a clip, in my personal opinion, considering Smith's more memorable performances in episodes such as "The Eleventh Hour" and "The Pandorica Opens."

Ferguson seemed more interested in goofing around with Smith than actually interviewing him, but Smith did mention Doctor Who's filming in Monument Valley, Utah for 2011's Series Six and that he was taking his run as the Eleventh Doctor "a year at a time" while hinting that he may return in 2012.

All in all, though, a very entertaining hour of television even without the Doctor Who theme musical number.  So Craig, how about having another "Doctor Who Night" with Karen Gillan to promote Series Six airing on BBC America in 2011?
