In Doctor Who Magazine 408, DWM recounts the tales of what happened when the Doctor Who team filmed in Dubai... and catches up David Tennant, as he looks forward to his final adventures the Doctor.
Does David reckon he'll be sentimental on his last day as the Doctor? “I don't know how I'll feel when I get there,” he says. “It'll probably be very scrutinised. I don't know if the last day will be anything like the last in story terms. Usually you're so out of sequence that your final scene is something very unimportant – walking down the street or opening a door – so time will tell. But it's – what? – 12 weeks away, so I'll cope. I'll find ways of coping.”
