The Eleventh Doctor talked with his [[hand]]s and calculated with gestures, a gesticulation that was outside of his control and often distracted him. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Day of the Doctor (novelisation)|The Day of the Doctor]]'') Indeed, it was rare for the Doctor to go long without wringing his hands together, ([[TV]]: ''[[Cold Blood (TV story)|Cold Blood]]'', ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]]'', ''[[The Big Bang (TV story)|The Big Bang]]'', ''[[The Doctor Drops In (TV story)|The Doctor Drops In]]'', ''[[Time (TV story)|Time]]'', ''[[Night Terrors (TV story)|Night Terrors]]'', ''[[The Great Detective (TV story)|The Great Detective]]'', ''[[The Doctor Appears (TV story)|The Doctor Appears]]'', ''[[Hide (TV story)|Hide]]'', ''[[A Night with the Stars (TV story)|A Night with the Stars]]'') keeping them clenched just below his lapels, ([[TV]]: ''[[The Eleventh Hour (TV story)|The Eleventh Hour]]'', ''[[Cold Blood (TV story)|Cold Blood]]'', ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]]'', ''[[Time (TV story)|Time]]'', ''[[Day of the Moon (TV story)|Day of the Moon]]'', ''[[The Girl Who Waited (TV story)|The Girl Who Waited]]'', ''[[The God Complex (TV story)|The God Complex]]'', ''[[Closing Time (TV story)|Closing Time]]'', ''[[The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe (TV story)|The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe]]'', ''[[Good as Gold (TV story)|Good as Gold]]'', ''[[The Angels Take Manhattan (TV story)|The Angels Take Manhattan]]'', ''[[The Great Detective (TV story)|The Great Detective]]'', ''[[The Doctor Appears (TV story)|The Doctor Appears]]'', ''[[The Bells of Saint John (TV story)|The Bells of Saint John]]'', ''[[Cold War (TV story)|Cold War]]'', ''[[Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS (TV story)|Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS]]'', ''[[The Crimson Horror (TV story)|The Crimson Horror]]'', ''[[Nightmare in Silver (TV story)|Nightmare in Silver]]'', ''[[The Name of the Doctor (TV story)|The Name of the Doctor]]'') or randomly clapping them together.

([[TV]]: ''[[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|The Time of the Doctor]]'') He even used his habitual twirling as a dance move, dubbed the "[[drunk giraffe]]".
