While discussing the origins of the series and previewing the finale, which Davies described as "carnage", conversation naturally turned to Jemma Redgrave's Kate Lethbridge-Stewart, head of UNIT, who has been a Doctor Who mainstay since her introduction in 2012.
"It's lovely to see her really be pushed to the limits," she added, before asking the pair to talk us through her journey to date.
"It's very hard to give Kate more to do when the Doctor's there, because he knows everything and does everything," he explained. "So it was a great opportunity for her to spread her wings in this, and off she goes."
"But it's just great to be able to invest so much more time in that character... and watch that journey. It's an amazing journey that goes right to the very end of the series."

"And the very end of her wits," chuckled Davies, as he referenced the scene in episode 5 when she meets with her psychiatrist.
Davies also revealed that the romance between Kate and Colonel Christopher Ibrahim, which was teased in Doctor Who, was always going to be developed further.
While details about what you can expect in the finale have been kept firmly under wraps, Redgrave has teased that there could be some serious jeopardy in store for Kate.
"But I've had a most extraordinary time and journey with this character and through different series of Doctor Who and now through this series. And every time I get the call, it feels like another gift. Long may it last."
