“The thing about the Doctor is, he’s very inclusive. He doesn’t see the alien in aliens. And I love that about him. And also the fact that’s never at home. He’s a Time Lord, and he’s always always always falling through the Universe. And when I thought about that, I thought I could play that. There’s a kind of a loneliness to it, as well as all the charm and the wit.”
—Christopher Eccleston, on BBC Radio 4/30/2011 (via flapperorslapper)
