Arthur Darvill won over Doctor Who fans last year playing Amy Pond’s devoted boyfriend, Rory Williams. The pair are now enjoying life as newlyweds aboard the TARDIS and returning for his second season, Arthur reveals in this BBC America Press Q & A how his character has grown, what being married to the feisty companion is really like and how filming on a pirate ship made his childhood dreams come true...
... It appears Amy’s swashbuckling skills could come in useful this season as Arthur hints that the monsters are scarier than ever before. “The ambition of the show has grown, there are a lot of surprises this year,” teases Arthur. “It’s not necessarily a big monster on the screen, but ideas that are presented in episodes one and two that keep building throughout the season.” One monster stands out in particular for him. “I think The Silence are really going to blow people’s socks off. They’re terrifying,” exclaims Arthur.
Rory and Amy may be settling into the routine of married life, but the honeymoon period definitely isn’t over for Arthur when it comes to the show. “Everyone cares so much about it, which is what makes coming to work such a joy every day,” says Arthur.
Season six of Doctor Who premieres on Saturday, April 23rd at 9/9C on BBC America.
