What a hero.

When Peter Capaldi got a  letter from 9-year-old Thomas to tell him that he'd recently lost his grandmother, the good doctor was quick to record this heartwarming message back to his young fan. "Sometimes sad things happen to us... so it’s nice to know that here’s somebody out there who’s on our side..." Capaldi says on the message, which the Radio Times reports had a profound effect on Thomas as he coped with the loss of his nanny. http://youtu.be/AZuNA8zMeSE
