Actress Neve Mackintosh has revealed that the Paternoster Gang will return to help the new Doctor in series 8.
When asked about the often rumoured spin off series Neve replied:
"The sexual themes in Doctor Who should be talked about more and embraced more. It could be edgier and more dangerous. We can do so much in Victorian times, it’s got that steampunk edge to it. Think how freaky that era was with the Elephant Man and all that and just add us into the mix, with time travel and all sorts of weird, wonderful stuff."
