I've been wanting a western episode for awhile, so I'm excited to see this coming series. I noticed that he's wearing a badge when the show him in front of the clock tower. How Back to the Future of them. And fighting a gun toting Borg? And Egyptians? And Daleks? Ron Weasley's Dad playing Rory's Dad? And Amy and Rory coming to an end against the weeping Angels in Manhattan? Could be an amazing 1/2 season! Could be more Curse of the Black Pearl too tho... But I'm excited either way.

Anybody see the best of series 5/6 special that BBC America just ran? Kind of weird to see our favorite free agent, Hugh Douglas, is a big Dr. Who fan.

Nope.

'I don't even know her name!' Doctor Who's new companion Jenna-Louise Coleman talks about landing the coveted role

A few days ago she was revealed as the new Doctor Who companion who will take over from Karen Gillan.

But actress Jenna-Louise Coleman has said that her casting has been shrouded in so much secrecy that she doesn't even know her name.

Eagle-eyed viewers will recognise Coleman as the first class servants' maid on the Julian Fellowes's adaptation of Titanic, which started on ITV on Sunday night.

And last week she was confirmed as Matt Smith's new assistant who will join the Tardis later this year - but she said the whole process has been very secretive.

Speaking to the Radio Times, she said: 'I wasn’t allowed to say it was Doctor Who at any point - not talking to my agent, not when I arrived at the audition, and I certainly couldn’t tell anyone at all what I was up to next.

'When she was auditioning, Karen Gillan had been given a codename - Panic Moon, which is an anagram of Companion - so I worked out that Men on Waves is an anagram of Woman Seven, because this is the seventh series.

'Weirdly, seven is my lucky number and this is my seventh job.'
And she said her audition was like no other she had even been to, adding: 'Normally you’re just reading in front of a camera, but with this, it was so physical. We were using props and running around so it felt like playing - and like a partnership straightaway.
The interview with Jenna can be seen in this week's Radio Times

'I have an idea of the story, of the character and of a few surprises, but I don’t know her name or where she’s from. I just told Steven [Moffat] and [producer] Caroline Skinner, "Don’t tell me anything until I need to know it".'

Coleman, who is best known for best known for playing Emmerdale’s Jasmine Thomas and Waterloo Road’s Lindsay James, begins filming her scenes in May.

And she said she's so happy she doesn't have to keep it secret any more.

She said: 'When you keep a secret this big – I’ve kept this one for six weeks – the temptation to tell is all the more irresistible, especially as I live with three schoolfriends.

'With girl politics the way they are, I couldn’t tell just one friend. I had to phone one of them on the way to the press conference to tell her that I’d borrowed her shoes, in case she saw them in photos.'

And she is also delighted that she is no longer out of work because after starring in Emmerdale and Waterloo Road she was rejected by Rada and didn’t work for a year believing she'd been labelled a 'soap actress'.

'It’s very easy for people to put you in a box, and I’ve been fighting very hard against that.'

She doesn't do anything for me.

While its probably time for Amy Pond to move on, I'll miss looking at Karen Gillan.

I agree on that point.

The girl in the staged modelling shoot is generally always going to win over the girl candidly shot in public. Let's see how she looks on the show, and more importantly, how she acts.

She looks really young.

There. Still better.

Then again there is this. But most people have been there at least once in their life.

New Doctor Who series 7 pictures tease Daleks

Simon Brew
Some new pictures from behind the scenes of Doctor Who series 7 have popped up, and we've got them here...


Appreciating that the return of the Daleks has already been announced and widely publicised, we've left the spoiler tag off this story. But if you don't want to know more - not that there's much to know yet - then it's probably best we part company here, temporarily of course.

To business, then. A new update at the official Doctor Who Facebook page has been teasing the previously-announced return of the Daleks. At first glance, you might think there’s nothing too much to the images that have been released. But look closer, and it appears that Daleks of all flavours are set to appear in the new series, both classic, and the multi-coloured variants.

As the accompanying text reads: “Here are some sneaky pictures fresh from the set of Doctor Who where the Daleks are being wheeled before the cameras once again. But which design? The answer is ALL OF THEM!”

Does this mean we could have Dalek factions fighting, a la Remembrance Of The Daleks? Now that would be fun…

Holy carp! Where is that Karen Gillian photo from. Was she a fetish pron star before DW? LOL!

Yeah, I saw that Hugh Douglas interview on BBCA about a year. I found it frustrating that they only focused on the new stuff though. Hugh was pretty funny tho... almost made it worth watching.
