As soon as the Doctor, Amy and Rory have faced off with every Dalek ever, their thirsts for adventure will be in full force one more, and they’d better be ready for what’s next…

Episode 2 of Series 7’s called Dinosaurs on a Spaceship and we think what it’ll feature is pretty self explanatory from the title!

The BBC will shortly announce an “iconic star” who will be guest starring in Series 7 of Doctor Who!

The identity of the actor/actress will be confirmed tonight at midnight. It’s likely they will appear in this year’s Christmas Special, as the read through took place last week (below).

Matt Smith recently described this year’s seasonal outing as “magic”. It’ll be the first episode to feature Jenna-Louise Coleman as the Doctor’s new companion.

Already confirmed guest stars for the series include David Bradley, Mark Williams, Diana Rigg, Rachael Stirling, Dougray Scott, David Warner and Rupert Graves.

So, another midnight announcement to look forward to (we’re really being spoiled at the moment)! Which iconic star would you like to see cast? Share your best guesses below…

Two more Series 7 episode titles were revealed during the Doctor Who panel at Comic Con yesterday!

First up, Episode 2 of the new series is called Dinosaurs on a Spaceship. It’s written by Chris Chibnall and directed by Saul Metzstein. Funnily enough, the title of the episode was previously confirmed by the Daily Star back in May.

The episode is followed by A Town Called Mercy, penned by Toby Whithouse and also directed by Saul Metzstein.

According to a press release issued today, the dinosaur adventure required “one of the largest sets to date”. It guest stars Mark Williams as Rory’s father, Brian, and Rupert Graves as Riddell, “a big game hunter”. The Western-themed episode, meanwhile, was filmed on location in Spain. It co-stars Adrian Scarborough and Ben Browder.

“Dinosaurs On A Spaceship – what more do you need! The Doctor will come face to face with some of the most monstrous creatures evolution has ever produced, on some of the most monstrous sets we’ve ever built,” Steven Moffat said. “We took one look at Chris Chibnall’s brilliant script and said to ourselves ‘We’re going to need a bigger corridor’. And Toby Whithouse’s A Town Called Mercy takes us into a genre Doctor Who hasn’t attempted since the Sixties – it’s a full blooded Western. We knew from the start we need some serious location shooting for this one, and given the most iconic American setting imaginable, there was only one place to go – Spain.”

The new series is expected to begin on BBC One next month. In the opening episode, Asylum of the Daleks, the Doctor will face off every Dalek EVER – rather him than us!

Rupert Graves has revealed a few teasers about his Doctor Who role in a recent interview with his official website.

The Sherlock actor will be appearing in Series 7 as Riddell, and described the character as “a big game hunter”. He said: “He’s in Africa, and there’s some kind of history behind him and the Doctor, although it’s never fully explained what. So he’s there to help the Doctor.” He also reveals that he’d never want to play the Doctor himself, explaining: “Once you get attached to one character, you never get peace.”

Other confirmed guests for the next series include Mark Williams and Dougray Scott.
