And, despite previously slamming David Yates' intentions to reboot the series for cinema, he says a movie version may yet happen.
"The thing that I would find intolerable is that you get a film instead of the TV series because the TV series is more important," he explained to Vulture in a recent interview.
"I don't think any showrunner or future showrunner of Doctor Who would tolerate the idea that David Yates was talking about, of rebooting it and having a second continuity.
"That's just nonsense. Absolutely insane and a straightforward insult to the audience. We'd never, ever do that. The question would be how could we do it without delaying or harming the TV show?"
The Moff went on to admit that he likes the idea of the Time Lord making the transition from television.
"I think it could be incredibly exciting to see that Tardis fly on the big screen. It would just be how do we arrange it?" he said.
"And how do we make sure we have... no offence, but you suddenly take American money and they expect to tell you what to do and all that. I wouldn't be happy with that. But it will happen someday, I'm reasonably confident."
Doctor Who will return to BBC One later this year.
