Speaking at a Q&A that followed the premiere of Season 10, Episode 1, Moffat said they didn't know there would be all the fuss.
"And in a way, there shouldn't be," he added. "That's kind of nonsense. So just to be clear -- I've been saying this a lot today -- we are not expecting any kind of round of applause or pat on that back for that.
"That is the minimum level of representation you should have on television, and the correct response would be: 'What took you so long?'"

"You don't want young kids, who regard themselves as boring and normal and happen to fancy their own gender -- we don't want to make them feel as though there's some kind of special case," he said. "Because that's frightening."
When asked if she had anything to add, Pearl Mackie agreed with Moffat.
"I think Steven's covered it really," she said. "I mean, people are gay."
