Dr Who, The Crown and House of the Dragon star Matt Smith is a lifelong follower of Blackburn Rovers, thanks to his dad who was born and raised in Blackburn.
He was a special guest for our 2-0 win over Luton Town alongside legendary former player Morten Gamst Pedersen and took time out to sit down with RoversTV and talk through his love of the club.

😂😂😂 great interview
Always been a big fan of Matt Smith and this makes me love him more. Come on boys ⚽️👊🏻
He sounds like a genuinely lovely fella, and a proper Rovers fan too.
Love that he loves the club 💙🤍
Never seen much of his acting work but seems a sound chap..future owner.
WHO is he ?? UP the ROVERS
Top Man ! He's so sensible, He supports a real cool football club.🤩
He could play Mowbray in the movie of our rise back to the top!
Smithy Smithy Buy The Club!
Smithy, buy the club!
Smithy smithy buy the club!
Smithy, buy the club!
From cork in ireland im rovers all my life
9:35 I completely agree with Matt. City vs United was not entertaining besides the last 5 minutes.
"Dr Who is Blue and White
He hates Burnley"
Right, so he's now definitely my favourite actor 😂
Seems a really nice bloke and a genuine fan superb stuff all round COYB🔵⚪️🌹👍
It is amazing to know, that he is a Blackburn Fan since childhood❤ i am italian and i love and support our Rovers so much as i can, it is and will be forever my favourite Club!
No way me and matt smith have the same screensaver… always knew he was my favourite Doctor😂
I totally get this 100%, I'm a brummie… BUT… my dad, my grandparents, all that best side of my family are Rovers, probably since the club formed, so it was never in question.
Wow T-5000 is here 😁and nice to know he's a fan of Chris Sutton too 👏
Him and MGP kinda look like brothers when he's wearing his beanie hat 😂😂
It’s hard enough watching Rovers sometimes with one heart, but it must be harder having two hearts.
He lived in Northampton, always thought he was a Cobbler! 😅

Thrilled to see I have fond memories of going to a game with my grandmother and hope to get to a match with my cousin and young son. The same cousin played when he was a kid with the Blackburn programs.
Not a rovers fan but top actor Matt Smith
I wish Matt Smith gets to see me again.
🐴
Plays a Targerian who shags his Niece 😂
Always be my doctor
There’s a funny story about him and Noel Gallagher about Rovers
Up the clarets
I've never seen him this animated whenever he talks about his acting gigs
Genuine question, What’s with the hair cut?
The last good Doctor Who.
He was about to mention his fire stick 😅😅 lol
Lucky bloke can still grow hair for film roles for me 11th Doctor is top 5
Matt 💙💙💙💙
This was a fun interview. I’d love to see him do some football related vlogs.
ROVVVERS
Interesting hair, wonder what role it’s for
Despite being a Celebrity. Footy is 'in the blood' haha SAFC fan here, proper clubs and the fans 'aren't made of plastic'
Really?
I had no idea the former Dr Who actor was a fan of Blackburn Rovers.
They are having a pretty decent season so far, might be worth a small bet for a playoff position.
In otherwords, finishing in 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th in the EFL Championship, however realistically I think it's a bit soon for the Ewood Park side to be thinking about a return to the Premier League.
But 3 or 4 seasons… and you just never know.🤞
Rovers should be up in the Prem! that's a proper club for his league
Im a soton fan born and bred but my mum side of the family are from lancashire and even my 2 oldest siblings were born there. Still got distant relatives in blackburn. Proper football club. And like matt, when my team wins, it makes my weekend, and when we lose, it ruins my weekend. Had many bad weekends thus far.
Just because I love Matt smith I now like Blackburn that little bit more.
He looks well 'ard
I’ve heard him in interviews sounding MUCH more posh than this 😂
Best ever Doctor 💙
Who? 😉
Sad him putting on his local accent that isn't even real. He has never spoken like that.
Who is this?
