Peter Capaldi wont be handing over the keys to the TARDIS anytime soon, according toDoctor Whoshowrunner Steven Moffat.
But dont expect a similar situation when Moffat pens his final episode.
I have no reason to suppose that Im writing out a Doctor, Moffat toldDoctor Who Magazinethis month.

Peter is loving the role, and long may he do so.
The writer isnt the only one who expects Capaldi to remain onboard the TARDIS.
In May,Capaldi toldRadio Times, Ive been asked to stay on [by the BBC].
I want it to feel like a brand new show.
I want it to feel like episode 1 of a new series, he toldDoctor Who Magazine.
I want to leave like its all just beginning.
Next season,Pearl Mackie joins the series as Bill, the new companion to Peter Capaldis Twelfth Doctor.
Doctor Whoreturns for its annual Christmas special later this year and a full new season in 2017.
