Later, the duo encountered the Eleventh Doctor, who would star alongside the pair in the film The Flying Deuces. They would perform a dance routine together in the film.

At some point, Hardy's brainwave patterns were secretly scanned by the KaaDok, in order to create a perfect walking, talking android wax replica of the actor. The imprint of Hardy's mind onto the android was unsuccessful, however, due to the technological limitations. (PROSE: )
