a glasgow accent and an ice cream name

"I'm clothes shopping in Selfridges. On my own. (Something I do very rarely on account of being organised enough, some years ago, to marry a woman who does it all for me.) Which is dangerous, as I often make very big mistakes, thinking I can 'carry off' something when I can't. Like when I bought the Vivienne Westwood combo of sexy high-waisters and 70s style tank-top." run by drumstyle and richelieus

Peter Capaldi to leave Doctor Who

BREAKING NEWS! “It (the new series of Doctor Who) will be my last… I feel it’s time to move on,” says actor Peter Capaldi. Peter confirms he’ll be stepping down in Xmas 2017, but “I’m still Doctor Who! We’re doing epic stuff! I’m not done yet!”

Mr Capaldi shocked fans by making the announcement during a BBC Radio 2 show with presenter Jo Whiley. He said he will leave Doctor Who at the end of the year. "I feel it’s time to move on,” he said.

The 58-year-old Glasgow-born star became the 12th actor to play the Doctor in 2013.

”And it was sad. Although, you know, I still see Jenna- she’s not out of my life- I think when the characters say goodbye to each other, doing those scenes sort of becomes a conduit for expressing maybe the peoples’ affections for each other. But hopefully I’ll work with her again at some point.” (x)

He recently won praise from female fans for insisting that it would be “creepy” to add any sexual element to his on-screen relationship with his much-younger sidekick, Clara, played by Jenna Coleman. “It’s ridiculous that we get these old guys with young women draped round them. When I started Doctor Who and we were doing photoshoots we’d be asked if Jenna could just lie down there while I, you know” — he leaps up and acts out a young woman sprawled coquettishly about while he gets to stand and look powerful over her. “I had to say, ‘Look, that’s just not what we’re about. The relationship between my Doctor and his companion is one of deep love. But it’s a strange sort of platonic bond. It becomes clearer and more moving as this particular series goes on.” Capaldi saves his most Tucker-esque sneer when discussing sexism in the industry. “Of course it’s sexist. Most of my peers have partners their age, so if we have a dinner party with a bunch of actors, the wives or partners are largely the same age. Then you see your friends on screen and they are suddenly with some extraordinary young lady who wouldn’t be at the dinner party. It’s ridiculous. “It is true that women reach a certain age when people decide that they’re not useful anymore as actors. There are a few significant theatrical roles that they might be viable for. That’s not fair, it’s not right, it’s not a proper reflection of what goes on in life.”
