Tom Baker has no advice for new 'Doctor Who' star Peter Capaldi on playing the character.
The 80-year-old screen legend - who portrayed the Fourth Doctor from 1974 to 1981 - insists every actor who steps into the TARDIS has to find his own interpretation of the Time Lord and believes 'The Thick of It' star will bring his own energy to the role.
When asked if he had any tips for Doctor-in-waiting Peter, Tom said: "No I don't have any advice for anybody and certainly not somebody taking over 'Doctor Who'. He's a very accomplished actor, I've seen him do lots of mean things, you know swearing into his mobile phone. I'm sure he'll be good. Nobody has ever failed, have they? So they you are, he'll be all right."
Tom made a return the BBC sci-fi show for the 50th anniversary special last November appearing in a mysterious scene opposite former Doctor Matt Smith in 'The Day of the Doctor'.
The veteran actor thoroughly enjoyed working with Matt, 31, and appreciated the help he offered him on set.
Tom recalled: "Going to Cardiff on a winter's morning at 4 o'clock couldn't possibly be fun, but Matt was nice. I didn't understand the cameras any more because of the HD, so I was a bit uneasy, but Matt Smith was a charming young man. We did this little scene that people liked a lot."
Tom has always been very proud of portraying the Doctor and he quipped it's only been in recent years that's he allowed himself to accept that another 12 actors have played the role as well.
He joked: "It's only recently that it dawned on me that were other Doctors, I don't know them you know and I've got no desire to know them and of course I never watched them, I thought it was only fair never to watch them because I never watched myself, all I wanted to do was do it ... But me and the other Doctors nod to each other at conventions."
Tom will be seen on TV screens as the Doctor once again as The Horror Channel is airing adventures from the classic series starting from today (18.04.14).

Laurie Brett will return to 'EastEnders' in September.
The 45-year-old actress - who plays Jane Beale - will leave the BBC One soap this summer following the death of her on-screen step-daughter Lucy Beale (Hetti Bywater), but she admits she'll be back in the autumn after she's finished her filming commitments at 'Waterloo Road'.
She said: "I'm on screen until the funeral and then I do have a job commitment but then I will be back in September once I've finished off 'Waterloo Road'."
Viewers have seen Jane reunite with her ex-husband Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt) in recent months, but it is believed the couple will grow even closer following the murder of Lucy, which sees them share a passionate kiss, and could lead to them rekindling their romance in the future.
Speaking to Soap Squawk, an insider teased: "Was it a one-off or the start of something big for them? Wait and see!"
Laurie bowed out of 'EastEnders' in 2012 to play troubled teacher Christine Mulgrew in 'Waterloo Road', but she made a two-episode comeback for the first time earlier this year, before rejoining the soap for a short stint last month.
Meanwhile, the BBC has axed 'Waterloo Road', which will conclude next year after 10 series, as it's though it has reached the end of its "lifecycle".

Don Gilet has teased his character Jesse Law is set to cause a stir in 'Holby City'.
The actor will grace screens later this month when his alter-ego makes his mark in the hospital after being employed as the new consultant anaesthetist.
He told Inside Soap magazine: "Jesse loves to be controversial. A couple of things happen where you question if he is dangerous or stable. I like that element because it is very ambiguous.
"He's very flirtatious as well. People try to put him in the box of lady-killer, player or heart-throb, but he's not that two-dimensional."
Meanwhile, Don is known for playing serial killer Lucas Johnson in 'EastEnders' until 2010 when his alter-ego was arrested for his gruesome crimes.
However, the hunky star admits it's been nice to take on a different type of role in 'Holby City'.
He explained: "Jesse couldn't be more different from Lucas. It's been a lovely transition.
"Lucas was convinced he was doing God's work, whereas Jesse believes in himself and his skills, not in a higher power. Luckily, no one ever thought I was a real serial killer, though I do wonder whether someone might now think I'm a real doctor and expect me to save their life!"

Helen Flanagan doesn't think she's taken seriously as an actress.
The 23-year-old model, who starred in 'Coronation Street' from 2000 until 2012, is struggling to secure acting roles after her stint on 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!' in 2012 because bosses think she's better suited to reality TV.
She told OK! Online: "I've got a few projects coming up. Reality TV ... I trained as an actress but because I went into the jungle I think sometimes it's hard for people to take you seriously as an actress.
"I'm really open-minded but I am actually a natural born actress, it's my character. But it's because I've done reality TV, and I do enjoy my modelling work. I just like to do things I enjoy, I live for now, I don't think ahead too much."
Helen, who has also appeared on 'Celebrity Wedding Planner' and 'Celebrity Super Spa', is reportedly being eyed up for this year's upcoming 'Strictly Come Dancing' as BBC bosses are keen to add some "glamour" to the show.
A source said previously: "'Strictly' needs some glamour for the next series and Helen has it by the bucketful.
"She was a huge success on 'I'm a Celebrity' and there is no doubt that she will pull in lots of viewers if the BBC do manage to get her signed up."

BBC newsreader George Alagiah has been diagnosed with bowel cancer.
The 58-year-old presenter, who has fronted the 'News at Six' since 2003, will be taking a break from his TV duties while he undergoes treatment for the disease.
A statement from the BBC said: "George Alagiah has recently been diagnosed with bowel cancer and will be off air for a while as he undergoes treatment.
"He is grateful for all the good wishes he has received thus far and is optimistic for a positive outcome."
It added: "George asks that he and his family are given the space and privacy they require whilst he recovers.
"Our thoughts are with him and his family and we send them our very best wishes during this time."
The corporation will find a replacement for George, who also presents the 'News at Ten' and 'GMT' on BBC World News, until he is well enough to return to work.
The statement read: "Until such time as George is well enough to return to work the BBC 'News at Six' and 'GMT' on BBC World News will be presented as usual by familiar faces from BBC News."
George first joined the BBC in 1989 as a foreign correspondent where he reported on events such as the conflict in Kosovo and the genocide in Rwanda, before going on to pursue a presenting career.

William Roache will return to 'Coronation Street' in August and become involved in the Tina McIntyre murder storyline.
The 81-year-old actor - who hasn't been seen in the soap since last April - will reprise his role as Ken Barlow this summer just after the beautiful barmaid (Michelle Keegan) is tragically killed off by a fellow resident.
The upcoming murder is set to be a traumatic time for the Barlow family as a number of Ken's relatives - including his son Peter (Chris Gascoyne), adopted daughter Tracy (Kate Ford) and daughter-in-law Carla (Alison King) - are all high suspects in the chilling case.
An insider told The Sun newspaper: "Ken's return coincides with one of 'Corrie's biggest-ever plots and he will have to face a number of people closest to him being implicated in the murder."
William was written out of the soap last year after he was arrested and charged with four counts of sexual assault and two counts of rape against girls under 16 between 1965 and 1971.
However, the star was cleared of all charges this February and is looking forward to filming again in June.
The insider explained: "It has been a long time coming. He has had an extended break following his court case and can't wait to start filming."
William's comeback will also coincide with the return of Charles Lawson, who has agreed to reprise his role as Jim McDonald for a three-month stint.
A source said: "'Corrie' bosses are really looking forward to Charles Lawson coming back for a short amount of time -- and his character Jim will play a key role in the drama surrounding Tina's death."

Helen Flanagan is set to have her own reality TV show.
The 23-year-old model, who is dating footballer Scott Sinclair, is being lined up to have her own fly-on-the-wall programme, which will focus on her life as a WAG and her attempts to launch her own underwear range.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Several satellite channels are keen to work with her on the project.
"Helen has been trying to focus primarily on her acting, but it seems she can't escape reality TV.
"Bosses are beginning to think she's ready to accept this may be where her real future lies.
"And she puts most of her life online anyway so letting cameras in should be a piece of cake."
Meanwhile, the former 'Coronation Street' beauty, who left the show in 2012 insists she won't be reprising her role as Rosie Webster on the ITV soap anytime soon.
She said: "I'm not going back. Well, not that I know of. I mean, maybe I'd like to go back in the future but it's not actually been that long since I've left.
"I'd obviously love to get back into acting and I really do enjoy my modelling."

EastEnders' Ian Beale is consoled by enemy Phil Mitchell following the death of his daughter Lucy.
The distraught father - played by Adam Woodyatt - is comforted by unlikely friend Phil (Steve McFadden) after the 20-year-old businesswoman (Hetti Bywater) is brutally murdered this week, and the whole cast were left sobbing just listening to the actors film the emotional scene.
The BBC One soap's producer, Dominic Treadwell-Collins, said: "Grief changes people and changes relationships. It changes Ian and Phil's relationship. Ian and Phil are the biggest enemies in the world. Phil Mitchell hugs a crying Ian Beale and starts to cry himself."
Adam admits Steve broke down "twice" and he didn't realise he was crying until after they'd shot the heart-breaking scene.
He explained: "We couldn't even read the script, we couldn't do a line run, some scenes I don't even think we rehearsed for."
Laurie Brett, who plays Ian's ex-wife Jane, revealed she was moved to tears listening to Adam and Steve.
She said: "Myself and Leticia Dean [Sharon Rickman] were in the kitchen part of that set while Steven and Adam were doing that scene.
"We couldn't even see it but we could just hear it. The emotion ... we were crying and we couldn't even see it. It's the one that put me right on my a**e, quite frankly. It was just brilliant."
Lucy will be found dead in tomorrow night's (18.04.14) episode, and Adam has compared the storyline to TV crime thriller 'Broadchurch', which gained 9.3m viewers during its finale in April last year.

Rylan Clark has auditioned for 'The Xtra Factor'.
The 25-year-old comedian and presenter Laura Whitmore, 28, are being lined up by producers to take over hosting duties from Caroline Flack and Matt Richardson on the 'X Factor' spin-off show later this year.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "It's a pretty stressful time, because Laura and Rylan have been screen tested but obviously, that makes it look like Caroline and Matt could be for the chop.
"The final decision isn't made until the last minute - Olly Murs [who hosted 'The Xtra Factor' from 2011 until 2012] only found out he had the job just days before he started filming. So it's quite tense, as it's a big deal."
Rylan, who shot to fame after appearing on 'The X Factor' in 2012, impressed bosses after taking over from Emma Willis on 'Big Brother's Bit on the Side' last year.
Meanwhile, Laura made her mark after taking over presenting duties from Caroline on the spin-off show 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! NOW!' in 2011.
However, Caroline and Matt could still make a return to the ITV programme later this year as no firm decision has been made as of yet.
A production source explained: "We're looking at what this year's series will look like but it is far too early to say what changes might be made.
"Matt and Caroline are great presenters and could still return as we haven't made any decisions yet."
