Seemingly getting more attention on Kasterborous than many of our wives this week, new Doctor Who co-star Karen Gillan appears in the Observer today, apparently explaining what it’s like to be envied.
Described by journalist Euan Ferguson as “truly and annoyingly, a lucky, pretty, talented, happy, smart, leggy, ordinary, honest, laughing girl, from a very loving family,†Gillan – who will play plucky Amy Pond to Matt Smith’s Eleventh Doctor from Easter Weekend – reveals that when attending her second audition she had to tell the BBC receptionist that it was for a show called Panic Moon, so secretive was the casting.

Hardly surprising – he was probably wondering how he came to be interviewing such an utterly beautiful, charming, talented and intelligent young woman.
