However, it turns out the episode wasn\u2019t just a fright-fest for viewers at home, but the actors also had to contend with some real-life scares on set.<\/p>\n
Speaking in this month\u2019s issue of Doctor Who Magazine<\/a>, Morris Gibbons<\/a> star Lenny Rush revealed that he and other cast members heard Gabriel Woolf as the voice of Sutekh on set, but he hadn\u2019t known that was going to happen.<\/p>\n He explained: \u201cI was acting, then this deep voice came on and I was like, \u2018OH MY GOD, THIS IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING?!\u2019 The editors will be like, \u2018Wow, he\u2019s really good at acting scared,\u2019 but I actually was.<\/em> Of course I was.\u201d<\/p>\n In the interview, Rush also teased that Morris\u2019s Segway \u201chas some secrets\u201d that may help him in the finale, Empire of Death<\/a>.<\/p>\n Rush spoke about his experience living with spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita, saying: \u201cI think realistically, and brutally, there are some things that, because of my disability, I can\u2019t do. On the other hand, there are many things, because of my disability, I can do.\u201d<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n Rush explained that he got his role in Jack Thorne\u2019s Old Vic adaptation of A Christmas Carol in part because they were looking for \u201ca kid with a disability\u201d, with this later leading to him playing the character again in Steven Knight\u2019s 2019 TV adaptation.<\/p>\n \u201cNone of that would have happened if I didn\u2019t have my disability,\u201d he explained. \u201cA lot of life with a disability is just making adaptations. I love living with my disability. I love it.<\/p> \u201cI get a lot of people, particularly on Instagram, messaging me like, \u2018My child has dwarfism,\u2019 or whatever disability, \u2018and watching you makes them so happy,\u2019 and honestly, that means so much to me. To know that I do that. I don\u2019t know what I do, but to know that I make people feel like that, I feel very, very lucky.\u201d<\/p>\n Rush was originally meant to play a different character<\/a> in Doctor Who season 14, voicing the space baby Eric, but after an impressive readthrough performance, showrunner Russell T Davies took the opportunity to cast him in the larger role of Morris.<\/p>\n THE ONE WHO WAITS\u2026 WAITS NO MORE\ud83d\ude31\u23f3 ![\"Sutekh](\"https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2024\/06\/Sutekh-Doctor-Who-d3e911a.png?quality=90&resize=620%2C413\" "\\"Sutekh")
