Alex to star in the opener of Doctor Who Series 7?

The Doctor Who team returned to shoot more scenes for the series 7 opener this week.
They have been filming behind closed doors in the studio, however, some Daleks were sighted.
A pic shows the New Paradigm Daleks alongside the Russell T Davies-era models. We knew they were coming back, but it’s good to see some visual evidence.
With Alex Kingston recently back on set, there have also been rumours that River Song might be making an appearance in the opener, as well as episode 5. Perhaps the Daleks be begging for mercy once more?
The next filming block will start shooting soon with the Chris Chibnall-penned fourth episode expected next. New companion Jenna-Louise Coleman will also shoot her very first episode in May.

Another pic of Alex Kingston filming Doctor Who!

Alex Kingston spotted filming Doctor Who!

As our exclusive picture shows, the Tardis has definitely landed in Llanelli!
Following a hot tip that there was a Time Rift in the Llanelli area, our intrepid reporter was sent to investigate. He didn't have to travel far, just up the road to the Box Cemetery.
There he found the battled damaged Tardis and the Doctor and companions busy trying to save the planet!
The Tardis, Matt Smith as the Doctor, Karen Gillan as Amy Pond, Arthur Darvill as Rory and Alex Kingston as River Song are filming part of the new Doctor Who series in the cemetery today.
So who is the Doctor battling in this episode?
Look at the picture, but be careful not to look away, as you can just about make out the body of a Weeping Angel. Sadly, the storyline just like the Weeping Angel was being kept underwraps but we all hope the Doctor triumphs again.

Doctor Who Series 7.

As most of you will already know, filming for Doctor Who Series 7 has begun today in Cardiff. The series is predicted to air in the Autumn and possibly continue into 2013. As usual, it will consist of 13 episodes and a Christmas Special.

CAST: So far we know that Matt Smith will play the Doctor for the whole series. We know that Amy & Rory are gue to leave at some point during the series and a new companion will join the series, although it has not yet been announced who the new companion will be. We also know that Alex Kingston will reprise her role as River Song, although it is also unknown how many episodes of the series she will appear in.  There are also rumours that various popular characters such as Jack Harkness, The Master, Craig Owens, Madam Vastra and Canton could return during the series.

MONSTERS: Producer Marcus Wilson stated that a few classic monsters from the 60's and 70's will return but that they will have 'moved on' a bit. One of the monsters rumoured to return is the Yeti, which first appeared in an episode with the second Doctor in 1967; The Abominable Snowman. They also came appeared in another episode a year later called The Web of Fear.

WRITERS: So far, Steven Moffat has been confirmed as writing five episodes for the series. Mark Gattis and John Fay have both been confirmed for one episode each.

EPISODES: Moffat has claimed that the first episode will be a bit like the movie Die Hard and teased that the title was 'Spoiler of the Spoilers'. It is yet unknown as to which episode Mark Gattis will be writing but he confirmed that he originally pitched the story idea for the episode to Moffat in late 2011. he also revealed that his episode contains the words 'Meat', 'Klaxon' and 'Vienna'.

FILMING SO FAR: Today filming has taken place inside house on Church Road in Penarth (Amy & Rory's street). Arthur Darvill and Karen Gillan were both spotted on location. Actor and Comedian Mark Williams (Arthur Weasley in Harry Potter) was also spotted on the set and there have been various (unconfirmed) rumours that he could be playing the part of Rory's dad.

(NOTE. I will continue to keep you all up to date with information about the new series of Doctor Who, so check back for more info soon.)

Alex Kingston: 'River Song could return to Doctor Who'

Alex Kingston has hinted that River Song could return to Doctor Who.

The actress, who will appear in the new series of Upstairs Downstairs, told talkshow host Graham Norton that she may resume her Who role.

"You may see her again. Who knows?" she teased. "Let's just say, Upstairs Downstairs and Doctor Who don't film at the same time."

Kingston also admitted that she had known "for a very long time" that her character was secretly the daughter of Amy Pond (Karen Gillan).

"I knew... for the whole of the last series," she confessed. "[The other actors] didn't know and they were constantly trying to get it out of me. They discovered it in that episode ['A Good Man Goes To War'] when they read the script."

Karen Gillan will exit Doctor Who alongside her on-screen husband Arthur Darvill (Rory) mid-way through the next series.

Series star Matt Smith recently indicated that he currently has "no plans to leave" the sci-fi drama.

Doctor Who will return to BBC One in late 2012. The Graham Norton Show - featuring Kingston, This Means War star Reese Witherspoon, comedian Reginald D Hunter and British indie band The Musgraves - will air on Friday at 10.35pm on BBC One.

It has already been confirmed that Alex will be returning for the 7th series of Who and starts filming really soon (see earlier posts).

Alex 'more than likely' to return to Doctor Who!

Upstairs, Downstairs’ along with ‘Holby City’ are now working out of the BBC’s new studios in Cardiff, down by the Norwegian church.. So most of it is filmed around there or Bristol.Alex’s character is a cousin of the family who has spent most of her life in India. She’s a bit Tomboyish and wears clothes more suited to safari than the Savoy. She’s no-nonsense and has a talent for organization. Not surprisingly, she has made a friend of Art Malik’s character. That’s all I can really tell you as I only had access to the script of the episode I was in. They are already making plans for a third series however, so it should keep Alex occupied for another year or so. I did ask her if she would make a return to ‘Dr Who’ and she said that it was more than likely.
Regards from your spy at the BBC.

Photo Of The Day

I realised that none of the pics from the 'Photo of the Day' posts have been from Doctor Who, so I've chosen one from Doctor Who Confidential, basically because I absolutely love this little 'moment' between Matt & Alex.
'Ooh I could just kiss you all day!'


'And I you Miss Kingston!' <3
