Quotes

Russell T Davies (Showrunner): "There's an unusually high number of stories dovetailed through this season. With the title 'The Legend of Ruby Sunday', you've got that foundling story reaching its peak. Millie plays it beautifully. I'm delighted with the way it all dovetails."

Bonnie Langford (Melanie Bush): "Mel is still working for UNIT and is on a mission to find out more information about an enterprise they're a little concerned about. Mel is trying to infiltrate and do a bit of spying. She tries to get all the intel and report back to UNIT and the Doctor. It's very layered. I was so excited to read the scripts. We also have Ruby's story unfolding. As we know, she is so desperate to find those missing pieces of the puzzle when it comes to her birth mother. The Doctor is trying to stay away from it because he doesn't want to mess things up. So there's a lot happening and a lot of twists and turns for the viewers."

Lenny Rush (Morris Gibbons): "A standout, funny moment for me is when we were filming an emotional scene, and in the scene we are having pizza. It was like an emotional dinner... So when it was my turn to say my line, I couldn't say it and had to ruin the whole emotion of the scene, because I had a mouthful of pizza and couldn't get my words out!"
