Arthur Darvill goes from Doctor Who to Doctor Faustus
Arthur Darvill, best known as Rory in Doctor Who, talks about secrecy on the show, his new stage role at Shakespeare's Globe and why he spent his childhood surrounded by puppets. For Arthur Darvill, last Saturday's mid-season climax of Doctor Who came as something of a relief.It means he can finally talk about the big revelation that Tardis companions Rory and Amy Pond are the parents of the enigmatic River Song, played by Alex Kingston.
"I forget what I can and can't talk about, so I end up talking about nothing for hours - which has become quite a skill," laughs Darvill when we meet two days later at the Globe theatre on London's South Bank.
“My mum sent me a text straight after the episode saying: 'Does this mean I'm Alex Kingston's grandmother?'”

Headless Monks
The Headless Monks were a religious order who believed in listening to their hearts rather then their minds, to the point of having themselves beheaded.
As they were headless they did not register as living beings. The monks were also supposedly incapable of being fooled. Despite their lack of heads they seemed to be able to see well, or at least were able to detect where other beings were. They could also fire energy from their hands.
They could also be killed just as easily as most other humanoids, in this case with energy blasts or sword wounds.
The Headless Monks were very religious, although it's not explicitly stated what deity they worshipped. They believed in listening to their hearts rather than their minds, so they beheaded themselves with an unnamed, box-like device. If another group allied with the monks, they were expected to provide at least one of their number to join the monks.
The group followed an apparently female entity known as the Papal Mainframe. Although the monks considered it a heresy to reveal their headless state to outsiders, they were apparently able to do so under the orders of the Mainframe.
The monks apparently had many chants, including an attack chant. The Headless Monks were present at Demons Run when they fought the Eleventh Doctor and his allies. (DW: A Good Man Goes to War) The Delirium Archive was said to be their final resting place. (DW: The Time of Angels)
