The BBC have today revealed the name of the actress who will be playing the 11th Doctor's companion in the fifth series of Doctor Who next year and they have also released some new promotional pictures of her standing by the Tardis. Karen Gillan, who is currently twenty one years old, will play the part of The Doctor's main companion for series five of the show and at the moment, the name of her character is unknown. She auditioned earlier this year along with many other people who were hoping to get the role and quotes from Karen Gillan, Steven Moffat and Piers Wenger can be viewed here on this site below;

Karen Gillan: "I am absolutely over the moon at being chosen to play the Doctor's new companion. The show is such a massive phenomenon that I can't quite believe I am going to be a part of it. "Matt Smith is an incredible actor and it is going to be so much fun to act alongside him – I just can't wait to get started!"

Steven Moffat: "We saw some amazing actresses for this part, but when Karen came through the door the game was up. Funny, and clever, and gorgeous, and sexy. Or Scottish, which is the quick way of saying it. A generation of little girls will want to be her. And a generation of little boys will want them to be her too."

Piers Wenger: "We knew Karen was perfect for the role the moment we saw her. She brought an energy and excitement to the part that was just fantastic. And when she auditioned alongside Matt we knew we had something special. It is a partnership that is ready to take on the universe!"

Karen Gillan has previously appeared in many programmes and these include; New Town Killers, Stacked, Harley Street, Coming Up, Rebus and The Kevin Bishop Show. She also recently appeared in The Fires of Pompeii, the second episode of Doctor Who series four, as one of the Soothsayers and will star alongside James Nesbitt in the forthcoming film Outcast.

According to Lizo Mzimba, BBC Films have now confirmed that they are working on a script for a Doctor Who movie that will possibly air sometime in the future. Lizo Mzimba, who is a BBC entertainment news reporter and fan of Doctor Who itself, recently revealed this news on his official Twitter page but informed other fans not to get their hopes up at this moment in time as it hasn't been guaranteed that a Doctor Who movie will definitely be made. The BBC are currently considering making one and are developing a script but they may decide not to commission the film for various different reasons. If BBC Films do decide to make a Doctor Who movie and it goes into full production, it should be noted however that it will be quite a long time before it is released due to all of the filming and preparation that needs to take place. More information about the possibility and official BBC consideration of a Doctor Who movie will be posted here on this site as soon as it becomes available. What do you think of this Doctor Who movie news?

The BBC have today published a new press release about the upcoming third series of The Sarah Jane Adventures and the article reveals some interesting information about some of the aliens that Sarah Jane and her team will encounter. We now know that the Judoon, who were first seen in 'Smith and Jones' and most recently seen in 'The Stolen Earth', will be making an appearance in one of the stories and the full press release can be viewed below;

Doctor Who fans are in for a treat this Autumn as David Tennant makes a special appearance as The Doctor in CBBC's hit drama series The Sarah Jane Adventures with a starring role across two episodes.

Investigative journalist Sarah Jane Smith, one-time companion to that strange wanderer in time and space known as The Doctor, is reunited with her old friend as The Sarah Jane Adventures is back for a third series of alien-busting adventures on CBBC this September.

Elisabeth Sladen, who plays Sarah Jane, says: "When I heard the news that David was going to be joining us I was absolutely over the moon. Not only has it made my day but it will also make the viewers' day.

"It's fantastic news that Sarah Jane is going to spend some time working with The Doctor again and is testament to just how successful this CBBC series is."

Russell T Davies, Executive Producer of The Sarah Jane Adventures, adds: "Viewers thought they may have to wait until November for the next full episode of Doctor Who, but this is an extra special treat.

"And it's not just a cameo from David – this is a full-on appearance for The Doctor as he and Sarah Jane face their biggest threat ever."

The series includes 12 weeks of brand new adventures featuring a new alien race, the reptilian Veil and their enemies the Judoon, alongside an extraterrestrial girl that can make people play games against their will.

There will also be a living painting, the inhabitants of a supposedly haunted house, monsters who want to infect Earth with a strangely aggressive weed and a chance for Sarah Jane to find personal happiness with someone who could be the perfect person to complete her family.

Alongside adopted son Luke, Sarah Jane's team is made up of Luke's streetwise pal Clyde Langer, their schoolmate Rani, who lives opposite and has aspirations to become a journalist like Sarah Jane, and Mr Smith, their Xylok supercomputer up in the attic, plus Sarah Jane's robot dog, K-9.

The Sarah Jane Adventures series three is currently being filmed and it's expected for transmission on BBC One in Autumn this year. Elisabeth Sladen will reprise her role as Sarah Jane Smith and David Tennant will make an appearance in two episodes as the 10th Doctor. Thomas Knight, Daniel Anthony and Anjili Mohindra will also return to play their respective characters; Luke, Clyde and Rani. More information about the third series of The Sarah Jane Adventures will be posted here on this site as soon as it is announced and becomes available.

It has recently been revealed in this month's issue of Doctor Who Magazine, which will officially go on sale this Thursday, that David Tennant will be starring as the 10th Doctor in two episodes of The Sarah Jane Adventures series three later this year. Russell T Davies has confirmed that The Doctor will play a major role in the episode rather than just make a cameo appearance and we also now know that David will star in one of the season's two-parters which involves K9. The Doctor will join forces with Sarah Jane, Luke, Clyde, Rani and K9 to face the team's biggest threat yet and the scripts for both parts of the story will be written by Gareth Roberts who has previously written many episodes for the show. David will star in episodes five and six of the series and Russell recently revealed that 'the wedding of Sarah Jane will be a day for everyone to remember'. The Sarah Jane Adventures series three is currently being filmed and it's scheduled for transmission on BBC One this Autumn. More information about the series will be posted on this site as soon as it becomes available. What do you think of this news?

It has recently been revealed and confirmed that a new animated series of Doctor Who is currently being made. The series will be titled 'Dreamland' and it will be written by Phil Ford and directed by Gary Russell. There will be a total of seven episodes in the series and each episode will have an approximate running time of six minutes which means that the story will have a total running time of forty two minutes. In the series, David Tennant will voice the character of The Doctor, Georgia Moffett will voice a character called Cassie Rice, Lisa Bowerman will voice her well known character Bernice Summerfield and David Warner will also voice a character whose name is at the moment unknown. The series is expected to air this Autumn and it will transmit on BBC One as part of the channel's CBBC segment. Dreamland will be the second new series Doctor Who animated adventure to be made and it will follow on from The Infinite Quest which was broadcast in weekly parts on CBBC's 'Totally Doctor Who' programme a few years ago. The Infinite Quest is currently available for purchase on DVD and more details about Dreamland will be posted here on this site as soon as they become publicly available.

As previously reported, a specially recorded Doctor Who scene starring John Barrowman as Captain Jack aired last night as part of Tonight's the Night's final episode. David Tennant also made a cameo appearance as himself in the mini episode which was created to star Tim Ingham, the winner of the programme's alien talent search competition. The scene is approximately three minutes long and it can be viewed below;

A special behind the scenes look at the making of the episode follows the scene in the above video and you can view last night's edition of 'Tonight's the Night' here on BBC iPlayer. The special Doctor Who scene was written by Russell T Davies and it was directed by Alice Troughton. Tim Ingham was the winner of the alien talent search competition and he therefore played his own creation Sao Til in the sketch. More information about this scene can be found here on the BBC's official Doctor Who website. What do you think of this sketch?

It has recently been revealed that John Barrowman, who plays the role of Captain Jack Harkness in both Doctor Who and Torchwood, will be starring in the West End theatre production of La Cage Aux Folles later this year. He will take on the role of Albin, who has previously been played by Roger Allam and Graham Norton, and will play the role from the fourteenth of September to the twenty eighth of November at London's Playhouse Theatre. La Cage Aux Folles is based on a 1973 French play by Jean Poiret and it tells the story of the relationship between two men who are happily in love. The play has received many awards since it first begun back in 1983 and you can view more information about it here on the production's official website. John Barrowman has appeared in many theatre productions over his acting career and most recently played the lead roles in both Robin Hood and Aladdin. Will you be going to watch John when he stars in this play?

Make sure you don't forget that John Barrowman's new talent show, Tonight's the Night, will come to an end for it's first series later today on BBC One. As well as creating the show, John also presents it and performs a song at the start and end of each show. He also takes part in some of the programme's activities and the aim of this show is to help make people's performance dreams come true. The first episode aired five weeks ago and tonight's episode, which is the sixth and final episode, will feature guest appearances from; James Jordan and the casts of the West End theatre productions 'High School Musical' and 'Lord of the Dance'. It will air at 7:20pm on BBC One and the previously reported Doctor Who scene featuring John Barrowman as Captain Jack will also be shown as part of tonight's episode. The specially recorded scene will be set inside the Tardis and the winner of the programme's alien talent search competition will also star in the special sketch which has been written by Russell T Davies and directed by Alice Troughton. A special behind the scenes look at the mini episode will be available on the BBC's official Doctor Who website after the scene has transmitted and the complete sketch will hopefully posted here on this site tomorrow. Will you be watching this later tonight?

Russell T Davies, the current head writer of Doctor Who, recently took part in an interview with the news programme 'BBC Wales Today' and spoke about his feelings regarding the recent wrap of filming on this year's special episodes of Doctor Who. The interview took place at Upper Boat Studios and it aired on Thursday evening. It is approximately three minutes and fifty one second long and it can be viewed below;

Along with David Tennant, Russell T Davies will be leaving Doctor Who to move onto different projects when he has finished completing his final touches on this year's remaining three specials. Russell was the man who brought Doctor Who back to our screens in 2005 and you can view a list of all of the episodes that he wrote for the programme here on the Internet Movie Database. Filming for this year's specials was completed yesterday and you can view more details about this news here. What do you think of this new interview?

Filming for this year's remaining three special episodes of Doctor Who has now been completed which means that at this moment in time, David Tennant has now filmed his last scene as the 10th Doctor and Russell T Davies has finished making script amendments for his last episode of Doctor Who. During post production, changes may however be made and new scenes might have to be shot to coincide with any errors that may have occurred during filming. As with any programme, Russell may one day return to Doctor Who to write a new episode in the future and David Tennant always has the possibility of returning for a multi-doctor story, charity sketch or he may even play a minor character in a future episode. There's also the possibility of the human Doctor, who was last seen at Bad Wolf Bay in the parallel world, returning so it's not out of the question that either of them may return one day to play their roles once again. I'd like to take this time to thank both David Tennant and Russell T Davies for their consistent hard work over the past few years and would also like to wish them the best for the future. The next three special episodes of Doctor Who will air later this year and more information about all three of them will be posted here on this site as soon as it becomes publicly available.

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts have recently revealed the results of this year's Craft and Cymru Awards and we now know that Doctor Who won a combined total of six awards at the two ceremonies. At the BAFTA Craft Awards, The Mill won the visual effects award for their work on 'The Fires of Pompeii' and Phillip Kloss received the editing award for his consistent hard work throughout the fourth series of Doctor Who. Russell T Davies was also nominated for the writing award at this ceremony for his work on the episode 'Midnight' but unfortunately lost out to Peter Moffat who was the writer of Criminal Justice. At the BAFTA Cymru Awards, Doctor Who won the award for Best Sound, Russell T Davies won the Best Writer Award, Euros Lyn won the Best Director Award and Phillip Kloss won another award for his editing work. I'd like to take this time to congratulate all of the winners and all of the nominees for their success and hopefully, Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures will be able to win the awards that they are nominated for at next year's ceremony. What do you think of this recent award news?
