Sad news! On 30 January, Peter Capaldi announced live on air, on Jo Whiley’s Radio 2 show, that the 2017 series will be his last as the Doctor. Here’s some of your reactions…
NOOO, PETER!
■ LAURA HUGILL (22) LEEDS I am writing on the day after the shock news of Peter Capaldi’s departure. I am sure the next actor will be great, and the show must go on, but Peter was born to play the Doctor. His passion for the show shone throughout every episode! I know there were doubters, particularly over the Twelfth Doctor’s temper in his first series, but personally I loved every second. From his quirkiness in The Zygon Inversion, to single-handedly carrying an entire episode in Heaven Sent, Peter blew us away with his brilliant acting abilities. He truly made the part his own.
