WHAT'S ON TV (UK)?: Matt Smith: 'Meet my sexy new companion Clara'
Matt tells us what he thinks of Doctor Who’s latest assistant, played by Emmerdale and Waterloo Road’s Jenna Louise Coleman...
... Q: Assuming the Doctor feels guilty about the way Rory and Amy departed, would you say he uses Clara as a distration?

Doctor Who's 'The Snowmen' airs in the US on BBC America on Tuesday, December 25, 2012 at 9/8C. In the UK, the Doctor Who Christmas special screens on BBC1 on Christmas Day at 5.20pm
