In an interview with Den of Geek, Doctor Who executive producer, Brian Minchin, said a lot of praise on how actor, Peter Capaldi, handles his new role as the Doctor in Season 8.

Minchin described Capaldi' portrayal of The Doctor as "dangerous" and "unpredictable," and that the audience will reciprocate well because the "danger is real."

"We did want a Doctor who was more unpredictable and had a bit of danger to him. We've had lots of brilliant, brilliant Doctors who you always felt very safe and trusted with, but I think with Peter's Doctor, you're never quite sure which way he's going to turn," Minchin told Den of Geek.

Minchin went on to describe Capaldi in an ecstatic manner, enumerating his qualities that made him the top choice for the highly-coveted role.

"It's really hard, because you've got to be really funny, an action hero, have a mystery and an edge to you... Peter's immensely funny, he loves the show and he's kind of ageless. He's got such energy to him," Minchin revealed in the interview.

When asked whether Capaldi thinks that not all actors can do that, Minchin only had one thing to say.

"I think only Peter Capaldi can do that," the producer said, before saying something off-record.

"I don't want to say 'all actors are rubbish compared to Peter', don't print that!" Minchin jokingly added.
