Peter Capaldi thanked fans
The Thick of It star Peter Capaldi has taken to Twitter to thank Whovians and lovers of good sci-fi following his regeneration in Doctor Who's Christmas Day special, The Time of the Doctor.
Capadli who will take over the role next year, burst onto the screen looking in pain and said "kidneys" as he clutched his stomach.
He then asked sidekick Clara, played by Jenna Coleman, if she could "fly this thing" while pointing at the TARDIS controls .

He tweeted: "Thank you for all your tweets tonight, glad you enjoyed my small part in tonight's special. Stay tuned for the new series! #petercapaldi x"
