The BBC have confirmed that filming for the next series of Doctor Who is due to start on Monday 20th February, read on for further details:
It's almost time. New monsters are
becoming real, old friends are returning to Cardiff and somewhere in
Wales, a tweed jacket is being taken from its hanger and lovingly dusted
off. It can only mean one thing - filming on the new series of Doctor
Who begins on 20 February, 2012!
The first director
to shout 'action' will be the award-winning Saul Metzstein whose
previous credits include Micro Men (starring Alexander Armstrong and
Martin Freeman), the critically acclaimed Late Night Shopping and BBC
Wales' Upstairs Downstairs. For the very first time, Doctor Who will be
produced at the new BBC Roath Lock Studios in Cardiff, which officially
open in March. The production team includes Steven Moffat (executive producer and lead writer), Caroline Skinner (executive producer) and
Marcus Wilson (producer).
The new series will see Matt Smith return as the Doctor in what
Steven Moffat has described as 'the biggest, the best and the most
ambitious season we've ever made'. Karen Gillan (Amy) and Arthur Darvill
(Rory) are both back, for what will be their final voyage with the
Doctor - a thrilling rollercoaster ride which will culminate in a
heart-breaking farewell to the Ponds. But there will be more shocks,
surprises and adventures to come when the Doctor meets a new friend, in
the last very place he could ever have expected...
And yes! We've been promised the return of some old monsters, but some new and terrifying ones lie in wait for the Doctor...
We'll be bringing you all the news about the incredible new series as it emerges, so stay tuned for some big surprises!
