The countdown clock is ticking and the BBC has continued the pre-series buzz by releasing their official press interviews with Peter Capaldi, Jenna Coleman, Michelle Gomez and that other bloke called Steven Moffat.

As you can imagine, there’s lots to be said about this year’s series premiere, a “dark, terrifying and funny” two-parter which the Twelfth Doctor star promises will contain “some special surprises”, although remarkably they all manage to get through their questions without revealing anything too major. Which is so unlike them.

They’re all still worth a read, though, so be sure to check ‘em out! The new series kicks off with The Magician’s Apprentice on Saturday 19th September and you can watch the tantalising teaser trailer for the episode in question here. It’s going to be epic, we can tell!
