So far, Amy Pond has run across the Weeping Angels, the Silurians and the Daleks in her journeys with the Time Lord known as the Doctor. And while there could be other classic monsters and menaces on the horizon, actress Karen Gillan says there’s one particular monster she’d like to see on-screen–the Loch Ness Monster.

“The Scots are taking over. I said to Steven that we should do something with the Loch Ness Monster in Inverness,” she tells Digital Journal. Gillan is Scottish and lives in the town near where the mythical monster is rumored to preside. And she thinks that the Doctor and company meeting the famous monster would be a great idea. (Apparently she’s never seen “Terror of the Zygons” which features the fourth Doctor taking on the Zygons, who have their own version of the Loch Ness Monster.

    That was the episode “Terror of the Zygons” (which is stated in the article, by the way).
