Peter Capaldi Interviewed in The Big Issue
Philip Bates is a writer at Kasterborous Doctor Who News and Reviews - All the latest Doctor Who news and reviews with our weekly podKast, features and interviews, and a long-running forum.
You’ve not got long to grab the current issue of The Big Issue, which features a Peter Capaldi interview about Doctor Who and Glasgow School of Art.
Issue #1115 is available from licensed vendors across the UK now, but be fast – the next one goes on sale Monday! The magazine, priced £2.50, boasts:
Ahead of his much anticipated screen debut, Peter Capaldi tells Adrian Lobb how he’s waited a lifetime to play the Doctor, on how it feels to have two culturally defining roles in his career and on Glasgow School Of Art’s place in creating Doctor Who.
There are about 2,000 vendors across the nation, selling roughly 82,000 copies a week. It’s a really great cause, helping people to get themselves back on their feet after nights on the streets, so if the Doctor cropping up on the (very cool) cover sells a few extra copies, that’s certainly a good thing!
In the mag, Capaldi says he’s annoyed at how the UK government treats the country’s youth. “It may sound nightmarish to some people now, but the government paid for you to be educated, because they believed it was a civic responsibility,” he says, recalling his days at the Glasgow School of Art. “I certainly would not be here, being Doctor Who, if they hadn’t done that.”
Peter Capaldi was also interviewed in Shortlist last week, and it’s nice to see the press as excited by the new Doc as us Whovians.
Lend a helping hand by buying Big Issue #1115 now.
