Doctor Who Series 9 Set Report 3

As filming for Series 9 draws to a close, Special Agent Chamberlain 006 has been out and about in sunny (yes, I was surprised too) Cardiff, tracking down the production crew to their not-so-secret location of ‘Eddie’s American Diner’ on Mermaid Quay. Here is what he found…

Suggestions are that this is filming for the final episode/episodes of the series, though it is also possible that these scenes could fit in anywhere. I guess we will all know by Christmas!

Thanks again to Agent 006 for the images…

Deep Breath Screening Live Tweet

Well we are less than 24 hours away from the premiere of Deep Breath tomorrow in Cardiff.  Several of the admins from the Doctor Who Missing Episode Discussion Group on Facebook, and good friends to boot, procured tickets for the show a few weeks ago and will be at the screening. They will be doing a non spoilery live tweet of the events taking place before, during and after the screening .

So if you are like me and unable to make it out to the screening, but you want to get all the news as it’s happening, (non spoilery of course) give them a follow on twitter and stay tuned because it all starts in less than 24 hours.
