Jack’s back!

April 29th, 2009

john_filming_29th_april_09It will come as no shock to most of you to hear that John Barrowman has been spotted filming on location for David Tennant’s last episodes!

This means Captain Jack can be added to the list of Companions Returning For The Tenth Doctor’s Regeneration, along with Donna (Catherine Tate), Sarah Jane (Elisabeth Sladen), Wilf (Bernard Cribbins), as well as Luke (Tommy Knight) and Sylvia Noble (Jacqueline King).

Meanwhile, Russell Tovey was also seen on set earlier today, confirming that he’ll be reprising his role of Alonso Frame from Voyage of the Damned.

As well as that, the Slitheen and Graske, and red and white people and men dressed as monks, were about, sparking rumours that the scene being filmed is set at the Shadow Proclomation, a scene that was originally written for The Stolen Earth but was cut out due to budget reasons.

So that just leaves Freema Agyeman and Billie Piper, and with every other member of the Children of Time already confirmed to be returning, and with just over 3 weeks of filming left, will we be seeing any exterior shooting with Martha and Rose on set? Only time will tell…

Thanks to Scooty of the Doctor Who Forum for the Barrowman image!

    This is looking to be one of the finest episodes to date!

    Is this just going to be Journeys End pt. 2?

    Sounds like the cut scene from JE to me…. but how does Jack end up at the Shadow Proclaimation?

    Definitely TSE. And, if it is, that means Adult Adipose – whoo! Well, that was the highlight of my day. Guess I’ll go watch Who.

    I remember reading about that scene in A Writer’s Tale and hoping that it would be in a future episode. Should be awesome, and yay for Jack!
