Yeah, that would be good.

At least they resemble Sontarans, rather than Russell's blue meanies, in the upcoming episodes.

It was an amazing experience, the best of my life. Matt Smith, Arthur Darvill (who played Karen’s on-screen husband Rory Williams) and I were all young and new to it, thrown into this perfect storm. We were like three puppies and they remain really close friends.’
