Doctor Who star Matt Smith has again confirmed that he has no immediate plans to leave the show.
Last month, a tabloid report claimed that the 29-year-old was quitting the sci-fi drama, but Smith later spoke out to deny the claims, insisting that he is "not leaving any time soon".
"There are absolutely things I'd like to do," he told the Radio Times. "I'd love to go to the States and do a film, but for the moment, I've more than enough to keep me busy, and it's work I love."
Smith, who has played the Eleventh Doctor since 2010, described his role on Who as "an amazing, extraordinary job".
"I don't think there's any point in concerning yourself with what you might be doing if you weren't doing this," he argued. "It would be madness - total madness - to be wishing it away when it's such a gift."
Smith's Doctor Who co-stars Karen Gillan (Amy) and Arthur Darvill (Rory) will exit the series in this Saturday's (September 29) episode, which Darvill has described as "exciting" and "emotional".
New companion actress Jenna-Louise Coleman will then join the show full-time at Christmas.
