10 Doctor Who Scenes Where Actors Weren’t Acting
3. The Doctor Kisses Rory
The lips of the Doctor have kissed some pretty memorable people over the years. Madame de Pompadour, Captain Jack Harkness, the ghost of Kylie Minogue. He's had them all!
One of the most unexpected smooches in the show came during the Series 7 masterpiece Dinosaurs on a Spaceship - unexpected by the audience, and by one of the participants too.
After getting tangled up in a plot involving dinosaurs and missing Silurians, the Doctor and his team must work out how to deflect a series of missiles heading straight for them. While brainstorming, Rory suggests looking into the ship's defence systems. The Doctor loves this idea - so much so that he plants a great big kiss on Mr. Pond's lips.
In the distance, you could hear the servers of Tumblr start to explode.
Arthur Darvill had no idea Matt Smith was going to do this, so his bewildered reaction to the lip lock is totally natural.
Don't be too upset though, Arthur. There are people out there who would pay millions to have Matt Smith kiss them at random.
