Дайри умерли, а я ещё нет.
Из интервью Стивена Моффата летом 2008 года.
UTR: Do you think that we’ll ever get to see more of The Time War in sort of flashbacks or anything?
Moffat: Not on my watch. I mean, and I don’t think on anyone who knows their stuff’s watch. That’s nonsense to do that. The Time War is exciting, precisely because you haven’t seen it. It’s exciting because it’s just this mythic thing and you can imagine it. It’s like in the original Star Wars when they mention The Clone Wars and that was so exciting, finally when they turned up, it was just a bunch of meetings, you know what I mean? You want it to be mythic, this mythic thing that you did not see. And I think Russell has done a genius job of just tossing in little references to it.
UTR: Definitely. Do you think The Doctor will travel to other countries outside of the U.K. more? I guess it’s dictated by the story, I suppose, but can you envision doing like, obviously, they had Daleks in Manhattan and a few stories in America, but most of them have taken place…
Moffat: It depends if there is value to be gained in that. This is a British series, and markets itself as a British series. When we do London, we do proper London with red buses and Big Ben. I always think it’s a slightly odd thing to say, “Oh how exciting, we’re going to do an adventure in America.” He can go to Skaro, he can go to other planets. Who gives a toss about the fact that he can do what I can do, is get in a plane and go to America. Yeah, if it suited the story. Our default condition is always going to be the U.K., because frankly we open the door and there it is. Yeah, the question is: Is it worth the money? Very often the answer would be: No.
