‘Doctor Who’ Matt Smith: ‘The Doctor is selfish’

Posted By on August 18, 2011

Doctor Who star Matt Smith has expressed his belief that The Doctor is often inconsiderate of his companions feelings.

Smith explained that The Doctor doesnt give enough thought to how his companions lives are affected by traveling with him through space and time.

Hes such a nomad, and he does his thing…. He doesnt quite engage in the way that other people do. Hes his own man, the actor told SFX.

Smith added: When you think about it, hes actually quite selfish. Because he picks these people up – often hot women – and then cruises around, drops them off, and goes, See you later. Someone elses turn!

The star also revealed that he has several favorite Doctor Who episodes from his tenure so far, saying: I love the [Weeping] Angels episodes, The Time Of Angels. I love The Eleventh Hour, I love Day of the Moon, I love The Big Bang, I love Vincent And The Doctor? Its so tricky. I love them for so many different reasons because I have so many memories associated with them.

Smith recently insisted that Doctor Whos 50th anniversary in 2013 must be an event.

Doctor Who returns to BBC America in the US on August 27 and will air on the same day on BBC One in the UK.
