Good! I recently finished my re-watch of S5-9, and appreciated Capaldi even more than before (though some of the scripts annoyed me). He really is a fantastic actor. My only complaint is that I'd have preferred the S8 characterization.
He better stay on.

I'm quite pleased with Moffat's comments, particularly as it relates to how he views his departure. Ultimately, RTD's handling of his departure was very alienating to far too many fans and I do NOT want to sit through another "The End of Time."
Oh and I am absolutely excited for another season of Capaldi! I will be really disappointed if he decides to leave at the end of Series 10.

In the minority here, but slightly disappointed tbh. Nothing against Capaldi, under a good writer I think he could have been my favourite Doctor but I just didn't enjoy Moffat's run (in fact, I gave up half way through Series 9 and still haven't caught up). I was hoping that Series 11 would be a completely fresh start like The Eleventh Hour, although I see why that wouldn't be practical considering how Moffat felt about writing that episode. Ah well, I'm sure Chibnall will do brilliantly either way.

I'm glad it looks like Capaldi will be sticking around for a while longer. He's an absolutely brilliant actor.

Now, don't all get over excited, or relaxed! Is Moffat confirmed as the Christmas 2017 special writer? Moffat said he doesn't think he will be writing Capaldi's regeneration, but thats different than saying regeneration STORY! Even if Moffat is writing the special, Chibnall may write the last ten minutes. We don't know.

He'd either go while Capaldi is staying on to do more or he'll write up to the regeneration like RTD did.
I still think Capaldi and Moffat will leave together though.

So, basically, what I said. Moffat will write the last story, just not the regeneration part!

No! Just not the POST-regeneration part.

i do hope that Capaldi does end up doing at least one season under Chibnall and that the stories are kick ass

For the simple reason that we haven't yet had a Doctor under two Executive Producers (since 2005), I'd like Peter Capaldi to stay on for Chibnall's first series, just to see two different approaches to one Doctor. Having said that, Capaldi's Doctor has changed a lot under Steven Moffatt since 'Deep Breath' all that time ago.

Fingers crossed that Peter stays on. There's still so much of his life to explore, new stories to experience and a new approach to liven him up, I don't think we've seen nearly enough of him yet.

Hoping that this is true! Capaldi is great, and I'd love to see a New Who Doctor last more than just three series. Here's hoping to many more years of Capaldi.

Even if Moffat is writing the special, Chibnall may write the last ten minutes. We don't know. What he said in DWM was "I have no reason to suppose that I'm writing out a Doctor. Peter is loving the role, and long may he do so." That suggests to me that Moffat believes that Capaldi will be staying on the show under Chibnall.

Moffat could be wrong, but he seems to believe that Capaldi will be staying.
