BEHIND THE SCENES

REAL WORLD PROP

According to Peter Capaldi, a pair of the distinctive underpants were on set during the shooting of The Zygon Inversion. "“I’ve got to say, they were actually sitting in my trailer on the day I made that remark,” he said when asked by a fan at the 2015 Doctor Who Festival. “Whether or not I put them on is a Doctor Who mystery. I’ll leave you guessing.” [1]
