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.

Rupert Graves to appear in Who Series 7!

It has been confirmed that both Rupert Graves (Sherlock) and David Bradley (Harry Potter) will be staring in the new series of Doctor Who. Rupert Graves will be recognisable to many Who fans as Lestrade in Moffat's other show, Sherlock, and although David Bradley will be known to most as the Hogwarts caretaker, it isn't actually his first appearance in the Whoniverse as he previously stared as the voice of the Shansheeth in The Sarah Jane Adventures. 

In relation to Keelex, if you're a fan of Rupert Graves, you can see him alongside Keeley Hawes in The Blonde Bombshell (1999), Ashes to Ashes (episode 1.2) and Death at a Funeral (2007).
