SFX MAGAZINE: Doctor Who “A Town Called Mercy” Writer Toby Whithouse Interviewed

The Being Human creator takes the Doctor, Amy and Rory to the Wild West in the third episode of Doctor Who‘s new season

by Richard Edwards
September 10 2012


Q: Was it you or Steven Moffat who came up with the idea to send the Doctor to the Old West?

Toby Whithouse: "It was Steven’s idea – he said he wanted to do a Wild West episode because this year, certainly for the first half of the series, it’s these big kind of movie marquee ideas. The pitch he gave was just, “There’s a town that is being terrorised by some kind of robot.” It was much the same as when I did “The God Complex”. Steven’s pitch was that the Doctor, Amy and Rory find themselves in a hotel where the geography keeps shifting and it’s like a maze. And in that instance my first thought was, “Okay, a maze, that kind of reminds me of the story of the minotaur.” And with the robot terrorising the town, I thought about what it was in the town that the robot wants. What if it’s a person? Then the idea kind of fell out from there..."


... Q: Was it exciting to get an international sci-fi star like Ben Browder in there?

Toby Whithouse: "Absolutely. It’s amazing that Doctor Who can attract these international stars. He was fantastic. I was really, really pleased that we got him because it’s an odd part, that character Isaac, and you need somebody who has ... Ben has this rather beautiful innate nobility that he manages to just convey, very simply and very economically. It was absolutely how I saw the character, so I was really thrilled with him, and delighted with his performance..."

THE GUARDIAN (UK): Doctor Who: Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill on life with the timelord

The actors who play Amy Pond and Rory Williams are shortly to wave goodbye to Matt Smith, Steven Moffat, the Daleks et al. But first they materialise in the Guardian office to nick some CDs

by Julia Raeside
Friday 14 September 2012


.... It was April 2010 when the Doctor first crash-landed his Tardis in Amelia Pond's back garden but it seems like longer ago, probably because so much has been packed into the two-and-a-half years since (and also because time has no meaning in Steven Moffat's infuriatingly fluid universe). Amy (her grown-up name) is mysteriously without parents, utterly self-sufficient and ready for adventure. She is also impossibly foxy and totally unafraid. Rory, meanwhile, has his work cut out to prove himself more than a timid fiance who lives in the shadow of her obsession with the Doctor. They will soon be leaving in "heartbreaking circumstances" after one final encounter with evil, time-sucking effigies the Weeping Angels. When they finally go, both say they'll be gone for good.

Since the show's reboot in 2005, the Doctor has had three other permanent companions, played by Billie Piper, Freema Agyeman and Catherine Tate. But none have quite caught the public attention like Amy and Rory. Amy's not in love with the Doctor, unlike Rose (Piper) or Martha (Agyeman), which means she can get on with the important business of running down spaceship corridors in Doc Martens, casting glib one-liners over her shoulder. Rory's not just along for the ride, either.

amy_pond_karen_gillan1

Amy did make one attempt at seducing the Doctor, but Karen insists their relationship was "more a deep connection with someone from childhood. Someone that you look up to so much and have obsessed about, so it's more than just fancying him."

Arthur says this actually made it harder for Rory, because the other man wasn't just a bit of a looker. "How do you compete with that?" he asks. "But I think Rory did compete. And he won."

"Won?" Karen gasps. "It's not a competition."

There's smirking: "Yeah, just for the sake of argument, he did..."

With a title like that, you know this isn't the Disney version of the story. Kandyse McClure ("Battlestar Galactica") and Noam Jenkins ("Rookie Blue") lead the cast of this cheese-tastic twist on the Arabian Nights tale, in which the hero must stop the genie -- who's evil here -- from wreaking havoc. Hmmm, so just wishing him back into the lamp is out of the question?
