The girl who waited has made us wait long enough, but finally Karen Gillan has broke the silence and spoken out on her return as Amelia Pond in Matt Smith’s final scenes as the beloved 11th Doctor.
Gillan said: “It was a surreal experience, because those were three very important years of my life on that TV show and then to go back and be on someone else’s TARDIS was a really weird sensation.”
Gillan originally left Doctor Who late 2012 with a tearful farewell but, to much delight of fans, had a cameo in The Time of The Doctor.
Being good friends with co-star Matt Smith, Gillan said: “It was just really interesting experience and important to me that I was there for Matt’s final moments in the character.”
This proved to be very emotional for Gillan: “Everyone was crying! Everyone! Me and Jenna [Coleman] were hugging, Oh my God.”
Smith and Gillan were united once again however. Gillan was promoting her new movie Oculus in which Smith accompanied her.
