John Simm has revealed that he is keen to return to Doctor Who to reprise his role as the Master.

Speaking previously about the likelihood of coming back to the hit BBC Drama, Simm had been quite reserved stating that he would, “consider it”.

When asked on Twitter yesterday if he’d like to reprise his role on the show under Steven Moffat’s leadership the actor responded more positively saying, “Of course! Mr Moffatt is a brilliant writer”.

Simm also used the popular social media platform to address fans who were less impressed with how the Master was portrayed saying, “For those grown ups ANGRY about how the Master was written/portrayed…please don’t tell me, tell someone who gives a f**k. Therapist?”

The enthusiasm from Simm to return to the show will be welcomed by many Doctor Who fans who would love to see the Master and the elventh Doctor united on screen for the first time. What do you think – would you like to see the Master return?
