The new Doctor Who returned to his alma mater to give some encouraging words to students
NEW Doctor Who star Ncuti Gatwa told graduating students at the Royal Conservatoire to “roll with the punches” as he returned to where he studied acting to collect an honorary degree., paid tribute to those graduating from RCS in Glasgow, hailing them as “artistic superheroes” after they completed their studies during the pandemic.Gatwa graduated with a BA in Acting from the RCS in 2013, and returned on Thursday to collect an honorary doctorate.
While Gatwa said there was a presumption he would use his address to pass on “wisdom and knowledge” to others, he added: “All I’ve learned in life thus far, is that you have to roll with the punches and figure it out as you go along.” “These qualities will serve you so well in life. What today signifies is that you are artists. Period.”
“I’m willing you on, I want you all to succeed and I know you will. Dream big and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. I cannot wait to see what you all achieve.”While Gatwa and Heughan were given honorary doctorates by the RCS, Biffy Clyro frontman Simon Neil collected an honorary Doctor of Letters from Glasgow Caledonian University.
