A brief but brilliant clip from a pre-Doctor Who Capaldi as foul-mouthed spin doctor Malcolm Tucker from _The Thick Of It_ [happily and hilariously deconstructing Star Wars.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cg-pnGFbwMQ) Language extremely NSFW.

I would pay much money to see Capaldi play an extremely grumpy Jedi master.
