Over a year since his swan song as the Fifteenth incarnation of the Time Lord, the Scottish actor has received an honorary doctorate from the University of Glasgow.
The university said the individuals selected have had "a profound and positive impact within their professions and wider society."
Prof Andy Schofield, the principal and vice chancellor at the university, said: "Honorary degrees give us the opportunity to recognise individuals whose achievements have had a profound and positive impact within their professions and wider society.
Sharing the news on his Instagram yesterday (Friday 26 June), Gatwa wrote: "Just the most lovely day. An immense honour to receive an honorary doctorate from The University of Glasgow last week.
"I think the official title is “Doctor of the University”…a lady at the drinks ceremony afterwards said they missed a trick by not saying Doctor of the Universe and I can’t help but agree…"
"I could write FOREEEEVVVVERRRR about Glasgow. Best city in the world (even though I’m an east coast boy) and some of the best years of my life spent studying there….fun fact…The Doctor studied at Glasgow Uni..as in the actual Doctor is an alumni of University of Glasgow. Mad. Absolute madness."
Gatwa starred as The Doctor for two seasons, alongside Millie Gibson and Varada Sethu as companions Ruby Sunday and Belinda Chandra, before exiting the series in The Reality War.
Although causing great excitement at the time, it's now incredibly likely that we may never find out why the face of former companion Rose Tyler appeared.
The broadcast also officially cancelled the forthcoming Christmas special, which would've undoubtedly explained The Doctor's unusual regeneration.
Taking to Instagram he wrote: “And so GOODBYE from me to Doctor Who but HELLO to a big new future for the show, as the BBC announces it’s putting the show out to tender.
“For the record: there was no script, I never wrote it, and no actor was ever approached to play the next Doctor,” he added.
“Now I’m as excited as anyone to see what comes next! Will they keep the theme tune? Will they lose the blue box? Will they bring back the Drahvin?! It’s all up for grabs, which is so Doctor Who, exciting and unpredictable and new! Here comes the future, vworp vworp.”
