Matt Smith discusses when it finally hit him that him and Karen would no longer be working together….nice save Matt….
“Well, I remember this moment… We were filming in Neath Abbey [in December 2010, for The Almost People/The Rebel Flesh], and Arthur looked at me and was like, ‘Shall we just-?’ I went, ‘Yeah, let’s do it.’ And then we told him. It was kind of like a love thing. Matt was weirdly, like, ‘Oh my God.’ I think it was a real mix of emotions for him.”

#so basically the reason matt was extra stupid in this confidential episode #was because he’d just found out karen was going to be leaving #TAKE MY HEART

“Well, that hair, those limbs, that surprising brain. It’s like she’s from another planet. She’s a true eccentric. Karen provides my funniest moments on a daily basis. Seeing her run. Seeing her move. Seeing those limbs extend. When she opens her mouth, it tends to be funny – unwittingly, but funny. But underneath her mad exterior, she’s sharp. She’s just perfectly Amy Pond. People love her. She’s hilarious.” - Matt Smith
