While the nation prepares for the passing of another fantastic Doctor, and the inevitable introduction of a new one, we're not the only ones taking a minute to appreciate the sheer brilliance of Matt Smith's tenure as the Time Lord.
The Eleventh Doctor's latest companion, Jenna-Louise Coleman paid tribute to her co-star, saying she felt "privileged" to have worked alongside him.
"I could not have imagined coming into the show without Matt as my Doctor, holding my hand, really, quite literally. I totally lucked-out in having a creative, generous, clever, and lovely fella to work alongside day after day," Coleman said.
"I feel so privileged to have been part of Matt's reign, to have to been companion to what is and what I think always will be one of our greatest Doctors.
"He is so in love with the show, he works tirelessly hard, surprises me every day, always creating and discovering something new about the Doctor. A true gent, a leading man and a very special friend.
"I know it will be a very difficult goodbye for me, but I for one can't wait to see where his career takes him next.
"Of course with the same welcome I was brought in with, I look forward to welcoming the next Doctor. But it's not over 'til it's over. See ya at the big 5-0!"
We will indeed, Ms Coleman. And we're looking forward to it immensely.
Doctor Who returns to screens on November 23 for a 50th anniversary special starring David Tennant, Billie Piper and John Hurt, before Smith bows out in the festive episode.
