Royal Visit - Reactions
Matt Smith said:
It was great to welcome The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall to set today. Showing them how to fly the TARDIS was a real treat and something I never thought I would be doing when I first took on the role. The Prince of Wales said he remembers watching the show when he was 15 and seemed very knowledgeable on the Who history, so it’s nice to think they are watching.
Jenna Coleman said:
Meeting The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall today was such an honour. The Prince was particularly interested in the mechanics of how the TARDIS works and the storyline for the upcoming 50th anniversary special, but I didn’t give too many secrets away
Steven Moffat said:
I haven't thought about how I could weave a meeting between the Doctor and the royal family. But Prince Charles's attempt at being a Dalek was great. There would be a part in the show for him if he wanted it.

Collinson PLC have been awarded the contract to build the new home for the Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff. The building itself will contain the main exhibition hall, a first floor mezzanine. Additional two storey section will contain a reception, cafe, classrooms and offices.
Company Director Daniel Collinson said:
We are thrilled to be working with Cardiff City Council and the BBC on the Dr Who project. To be part of creating something imaginitive and extraordinary is always exciting for us. We’re confident the finished result will not only impress visitors to the exhibition, but we hope it will inspire people think creatively when it comes to the materials and design that can be utilised in constructing public buildings.
The construction is a joint project between the BBC and Cardiff city council, a spokesperson said:
This attraction is set to bring millions of pounds into the city’s economy, and the benefits to Cardiff will be immense in terms of tourism.
