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.

24 year old Aneurin (represented by Ken McReddie Associates), won an Olivier award in 2010 for best actor in a musical for his West End debut as Melchoir in musical Spring Awakening after graduating from RWCMD in 2008, and has since had a busy couple of years with roles in Hunky Dory, starring as David Bailey in BBC4's We'll Take Manhattan, and he will next be seen in Elfie Hopkins, out later this month.
Casting of Mariah's younger brother Felix, and hotel maid love interest Sacha is still to be announced.

River Song In New York!
The Doctor Who team arrived in New York for filming on the fifth episode of Series 7 this week. And yes, if the title wasn’t a big enough clue, River Song is expected to return for some of the action.
It’s hardly surprising news. It would have been a little strange if Amy and Rory left without some sort of farewell to their daughter in their final episode.
A casting call has gone out looking for a photo double of Alex Kingston, but Kingston herself will reportedly be on the set for scenes very soon. The double is also required to drive.
Of course River already has a bit of a history in New York, having regenerated as a little girl at the end of Day of the Moon. Just another coincidence?

Keeley Hawes: This Week I'm... (The Telegraph)
Watching
Modern Family, a genius satirical comedy about three families. I tried out one episode on a flight and I ended up watching five more in a row.
Reading
The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. It’s about a magic circus that appears overnight. It’s beautifully written.
Eating
Peppered chicken. The very best version is at Lupa, a little Italian restaurant in New York that also does great peanut brittle. luparestaurant.com
Listening to
Women wailing! I’m really into folk at the moment – Laura Marling and Birdy – but too much in one sitting can be a bit depressing.
Drinking
Kir royales at the Delaunay. It’s a fantastic place for pre-dinner cocktails, although once I’ve had one I can never remember very much after that. thedelaunay.com
Buying
Linen towels from Manufactum, an amazing website that sources the best materials from across Europe. manufactum.co.uk
Browsing
For antiques in Sunbury Antiques Market at Kempton Park Racecourse. It’s on twice a month and has about 700 stalls of furniture, silverware, jewellery, pottery and more. sunburyantiques.com
Visiting
The Riflemaker Gallery in London’s Beak Street. I was there recently for an exhibition by my friend Stuart Pearson Wright and it’s a great space. riflemaker.org
Keeley is ambassador for the P&G Capital Clean-Up, a series of clean-up events from March-June to ready the capital for London 2012
Keeley was speaking to Lily Middlemass.
