As Nardole becomes a fully fledged companion in this year’s Christmas Special and for the 2017 series, Matt Lucas chats to DWM in a rare and exclusive interview…

“Some people say, ‘I quite liked Nardole, but why does he need to come back?’ Well, there is an answer. I can’t tell you why he needs to come back, but I can tell you that he does need to come back. There’s a job that needs to be done, and it’s not a job that the Doctor can do on his own. Nardole is there to help him. It’ll all become clear.”
