=== Career ===
Matt Smith appeared opposite [[Billie Piper]] (who played former companion [[Rose Tyler]]) in ''The Ruby In The Smoke'', ''The Shadow In The North'', and ''Secret Diary Of A Call Girl''. On stage, he was nominated for a Laurence Olivier Award for That Face in 2008. At twenty-seven years of age, Smith became the youngest actor ever to have played [[the Doctor]] on television (a record held for more than a quarter-century by [[Peter Davison]]) and the first to be born after the death of the [[First Doctor]], [[William Hartnell]]. Following the conclusion of contract negotiations around [[Christmas]] [[2008]], Smith's casting was formally announced during [[The Eleventh Doctor (CON episode)|a special broadcast]] of ''[[Doctor Who Confidential]]'' on [[BBC Three]] on 3 January 2009.

Further roles came as he appeared in ''[[On the Shore of the Wide World]]'' before then moving on with co-stars [[Thomas Morrison (actor)|Thomas Morrison]] and [[Steven Webb]] to [[Alan Bennet]]'s ''[[History Boys]]''.

Early life[[edit] | [edit source]]

Smith grew up in Northampton (located in the East Midlands of England) and attended Northampton School for Boys, mocked for having a face "with elbows".[3]. He originally wanted to be a footballer but had to give up this ambition after a back injury. He excelled at sports in school.

Following the conclusion of contract negotiations around Christmas 2008, Smith's casting was formally announced during a special broadcast of Doctor Who Confidential on BBC Three on 3 January 2009. Smith began filming his first full episodes as the Doctor in late July 2009.

The exact date of when Matt was cast is uncertain. It is known that Russell T Davies was informed on or just before 10 December 2008[5], but during interviews conducted in March and April 2010 to promote Series 5, Smith repeatedly stated that he had to keep quiet about being cast for three months before the announcement, suggesting he may have been cast as early as October 2008. Smith announced his departure from Doctor Who on June 1st, 2013, being replaced with Peter Capaldi as the Twelfth Doctor in The Time of the Doctor. However, a scene was filmed during his final episode which shows the Doctor phoning Clara in the near future concerning his next incarnation; through this scene, Matt returned as the Doctor one last time in a brief cameo appearance at the end of Deep Breath.

Since being cast as the Doctor, Smith has also starred opposite Eva Green in the science fiction drama Womb (released on DVD as Clone), and has starred as the writer Christopher Isherwood in the BBC television film Christopher and His Kind. Beginning in 2016, Smith plays Prince Philip in the Netflix original series The Crown.
