Doctor Who star Peter Capaldi wrote a touching letter to a young fan who was dreading saying farewell to his favourite Time Lord.
“The letter was just so magical, the envelope it came in, Peter Capaldi drew a Dalek on it and it said my name on it,” he added.
David told the BBC that the letter, which he opened alongside his presents on Christmas morning, left him “speechless and surprised”.
It’s always an emotional scene for fans, but Capaldi took the time especially to reassure 9-year-old David McGilloway, from Londonderry, whose father posted the actor’s letter to his son on Twitter.
