Samuel Anderson would like to return as Orson Pink

Samuel Anderson would like to return as Orson Pink, and has an idea on how that could happen.

Speaking to the Radio Times, Anderson said: “I do remind them that Orson is alive. #BringBackOrsonPink.”

Looking back on the demise of Danny Pink, he said: “Steven Moffat put me away in style. I’ve lost a few jobs in my time, but never gone out in such a blaze of glory!”


He went on to share his ideas on how he could return: “Maybe in an alternate universe? I wouldn’t mind approaching [Danny Pink] in a different way. Or maybe just come back as Orson Pink, because then it changes the dynamic between him and the Doctor.

“If it’s Orson Pink, I think the relationship would be totally different because instead of a soldier – which is the kind of person the Doctor can’t bear – you’ve got another scientist who could be quite interesting with their relationship. And then instead of it being a love interest with Clara and Danny, it would be a family affair with grandmother and grandson but at the same age.”

Danny Pink may no longer be around, but Anderson believes the character won’t be forgotten in Series 9: “Steven is very clever with the arcs that he writes, and I suppose that the relationship with Danny and Clara was integral to how the relationship with Clara and the new Doctor was going to go. I imagine there will be something [in Series 9] for sure.”

Doctor Who Series 9 begins on Saturday, 19th September on BBC One.
