Michelle Gomez has revealed that Missy is “up to no good” again in the new season of Doctor Who.
The Scottish actress returns as the latest incarnation of the Master in the opening two episodes of Season 9, ‘The Magician’s Apprentice’ and ‘The Witch’s Familiar’.
Gomez told Daily Record: “I can’t tell you much, I’m too much of a fan of the show to spoil the fun but I can tell you she’s up to no good.”
She teased: “Even I was a bit shocked at her level of disdain this year. She has no boundaries, that girl; she is very naughty.”
Gomez also confirmed that an official Missy action figure is being produced: “The doll is on order, I’ve seen the prototype, that was a surreal day. She should be in the stores soon.”
She commented: “Funny-looking thing – she and me. It’s very exciting to be an action figure, not bad going for a lady of a certain age.”
The Bad Education star also joked that her five-year-old son is also a fan: “My son is still a bit young to get the whole Who thing but he does seem determined I should have my own spin-off, he calls me Missy Who.”
She added: “He’s also determined Missy should meet The Queen. Of course, I support both these ideas wholeheartedly.”
