Into those mad times, came a mad man with a box. In April 2010, Matt Smith made his debut as Doctor Who’s Eleventh Doctor, with new showrunner Steven Moffat in tow. There were cracks in the universe and Rory dying and Vincent Van Gogh and James Cordon and a Pandorica. The Tardis exploded. A lot.

It was an unusual moment, and a great one. Matt Smith certainly looked like he was enjoying himself.
