next-time-nightmare-in-silver

This weekend Series 7 will continue with the return of one of the Doctor’s most iconic and persistent foes. It’s those metal monsters we just love to hate, the Cybermen!

And if their comeback wasn’t exciting enough, the episode in question is written by Neil Gaiman whose first contribution to the series was 2011’s acclaimed, and Hugo Award winning no less, The Doctor’s Wife – what’s he got in store for the Cybermen then? Well we’ve been told they’ll be “deadlier” than ever this time round…

“What Neil’s done is write the Doctor in conflict with the Cybermen in a new way,” said exec producer Caro Skinner back in March teasing: “So it’s a huge episode for Matt.” Its next time trail – below – definitely vouches for that! It all kicks off when the Doctor and Co journey to Hedgewick’s World of Wonders. It’s definitely going to be a roller coaster…

Nightmare in Silver airs on Saturday 11th May on BBC One at the later time of 7pm…

Are you looking forward to the Cybermen's return this Saturday?

next-time-the-crimson-horror

This week, when Series 7 continues, there is trouble at’ mill for the Doctor when he encounters The Crimson Horror.

In Mark Gatiss’ latest episode, there is something quite odd about Mrs Gillyflower’s Sweetville mill with its perfectly clean streets and beautiful people. But what’s even stranger is the bodies that keep washing up in the river… When the Doctor and Clara go missing, it’s up to Vastra, Jenny and Strax (uh huh, they’re baaaaaack!) to rescue them before they too fall victim. Diana Rigg and Rachael Stirling guest star.

The Crimson Horror airs this Saturday 4th May at 6:30pm on BBC One. Watch its trailer:

series-7-the-finale-title-iconic-poster-revealed

The BBC have today teased us with details about the highly anticipated Series 7 finale, written by Steven Moffat.

While this episode, which is to lead directly into November’s 50th anniversary special, has been shrouded in mystery, it has now been announced as The Name of the Doctor.

The intriguing title will no doubt erupt more speculation from fans, especially as we know the “phenomenal” climax will jeopardize the Time Lord’s “greatest secret”

Additionally here is the finale’s epic poster which will be used to promote the episode. It confirms the return of Alex Kingston as River Song in the adventure, which will feature “something that you might always have believed to be impossible” – any guesses, folks?

Series 7 continues tomorrow night in Hide on BBC One at 6:45pm. Watch the trailer!

New Series 7 posters have surfaced today which offer us a tantalising glimpse into the very near future.

Since the Doctor burst back onto TV screens at Easter we’ve had wi-fi woes, perplexing pyramids then underwater warriors, and after this Saturday’s chilling ghost tale it’ll be all hands on deck for 4 more epic adventures. The action continues in Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS which is followed by The Crimson Horror. Next, the Cybermen return as the Doctor faces a Nightmare in Silver.

After that it’ll be time for the big finale, but it’s currently being kept under lock and key…


The Doctor has 30 minutes to save the TARDIS in this story by Stephen Thompson.


Mark Gatiss is back – and so are Vastra, Jenny and Strax – for The Crimson Horror!


The Cybermen are “deadlier” than ever in the originally titled The Last Cybermen.

next-time-hide

This weekend we’ll reach the halfway point of this series but this in no way means we’ll be halfway out of the dark.

In Saturday’s episode Hide we’ve been promised “a really old-fashioned scary episode” and from what we’ve thus far been told, we don’t doubt those words! When the Doctor and Clara land at Caliburn House they meet a ghost hunting Professor and a gifted psychic searching for the Witch of the Well whose apparition appears throughout the history of the building. But is she really a ghost? And what’s chasing her?

Find out when Hide airs this Saturday at 6:45pm on BBC One. In the meantime, though…

next-time-cold-war

We’ve had aliens in the wifi then sacrifices at the Festival of Offerings so what comes next? Maybe the return of an iconic enemy would fit the bill…

In this Saturday’s adventure Cold War, the Doctor’s in for a blast from the past as the Ice Warriors get a long overdue comeback to our screens. When the Doctor and Clara arrive on a damaged Russian Submarine in 1983, it spirals out of control, with an alien creature loose on board. With a cargo of nuclear weapons in tow, humanity is at stake.

Cold War will air on BBC One on Saturday 13th April at the slightly earlier time of 6pm.

50th-anniversary-filming-at-the-tower-trafalgar

Filming for the highly anticipated 50th anniversary special (it’s in 3D, you know?) continues as the cast and crew move down to London to make a moment of TV history!

So far this week they’ve been shooting scenes at two of the city’s iconic locations, the Tower of London and Trafalgar Square. Jenna-Louise Coleman was joined onset by Jemma Redgrave who is reprising her role as Kate, the Brigadier’s daughter, at the Tower, which is used in the series as UNIT’s headquarters. But you didn’t hear that from us…

Also getting in on the action on the north bank was another guest star Ingrid Oliver, but don’t just take our word for it. Check out an on set video below. Loving the scarf, Ingrid!

And here’s Strax with an intelligence report. If you’re in London keep watching the skies!

The “momentous” episode will be shown on BBC One and in cinemas this November.
