Doctor Who is set to go before the cameras again this month. And Steven Moffat has given a small hint as to what's in store...
Filming is set to start this month on the seventh series of Doctor Who since its 2005 revival, with Matt Smith reprising his role as the Doctor.
Steven Moffat has also teased one or two more details about the series, and, if you don’t want to know anything about them, you should look away now.
Over in Australia at the moment, the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra is performing the Doctor Who Symphonic Spectacular. And Mr Moffat has written a few words in the programme for the performance.
Specifically, he had this to say about what we can expect from series 7…
“Doctor Who's 50th anniversary is coming. In Cardiff, we're gearing up for the biggest, the best and the most ambitious season we've ever made. There will be shocks, surprises and heartbreak - the Doctor is about to say goodbye to his very best friends, Amy and Rory.
And then he's about to say hello to someone very different - the Doctor is going to meet someone very new in the very last place he could ever have expected...”
Sounds intriguing, although that’s all we’re getting for the time being.
