从粉丝到主演新一任“神秘博士”登场 The Doctor Is In (He’s Aged) 来源：纽约时报 2014-08-28 07:41:58 THE passage of time is perhaps not so acute to the centuries-old alien at the heart of the BBC’s “Doctor Who,” the shape-shifting hero known simply as the Doctor, who has had more than 50 years of adventures across dimensions known and otherwise. 对于一个几百岁的外星人来说，时光的流逝或许不算什么——他是BBC《神秘博士》(Doctor Who)中的核心人物，会改变外型的主角，人们只知道他叫“博士”，在已知或未知的时空里已经做了50多年的冒险。 But time and its measurement have become especially crucial to Peter Capaldi, who will make his proper, full-length debut as the latest actor to play the Doctor when the new season of “Doctor Who” has its premiere Saturday on BBC America. 但是对于彼得·卡帕尔蒂(Peter Capaldi)来说，时间与时间的度量却显得分外残酷。周六（8月23日——译注）BBC美国即将播出《神秘博士》新一季第一集，作为最新一任博士的饰演者，他将在这一集中真正完整地首次亮相。 It has been just over a year since the BBC announced that Mr. Capaldi would succeed Matt Smith, who was a 26-year-old relative novice when he was chosen to play the Doctor, and, after three seasons of putting his frantic, whirling-dervish stamp on the character, disclosed his departure in June 2013. 一年前，BBC宣布由卡帕尔蒂接任马特·史密斯(Matt Smith)饰演博士，后者最初被选为博士的饰演者时只有26岁，算是新手，三季之后，他给这个角色打上了自己的印记：一个旋转起舞的疯狂托钵僧。2013年6月，他正式宣布离开剧组。 Since then, Mr. Capaldi, 56, has spent several months filming “Doctor Who” in Cardiff, Wales, trying to bring to the role his own personal take, which he says is more sardonic and elusive. 之后，56岁的卡帕尔蒂在威尔士的卡迪夫拍了几个月的《神秘博士》，试图为这个角色赋予自己的个人特点——冷嘲热讽，难以捉摸。 Still, as a lifelong “Doctor Who” fan, he could not quite contain his giddiness, all this time later, that he had actually landed the part. 不过，作为《神秘博士》的长期粉丝，过了这么久，竟然还有机会饰演这个角色，他也不免难掩兴奋之情。 “I just didn’t think that they would be going in this direction,” Mr. Capaldi said in a gentle, stately voice with only traces of a Scottish accent, on a visit to New York last week. Asked what he meant, he answered with a laugh: “Well, I guess, older. And more like me.
