Karen Gillan talked about Amys future in Doctor Who with Graham Norton on BBC Radio 2 this morning, revealing how she will “welcome the new companion with open arms”, but also says her character will be back next year alongside Rory, but she’s “not really sure when”.

“I don’t really know what’s going on, I think that’s all up in the air at the moment. I know I’m going to be coming back, but I’m not really sure when. But I know that the time will come where Amy and Rory have to leave. It’s inevitable and sad, but that’s the nature of the show, and I’ll welcome the new companion with open arms. I think it’s important to do other things and establish myself in other ways.”
