Doctor Who Series Six Is Seven Episodes Long

The nine-month filming on Dr Who has finally taken its toll and...

Well, unlike the Sun's 2008 report of the show being axed, Series Six is half-length.

Oh well, it will be folowed by Series Seven in Autumn of the same year - but never fear, I'll be on holiday early this year so I'll STILL miss two episodes' coverage!

As Mr Moffat points out, this leaves us with a maximum of a few months until a Doctor Who episode at any point in the year.

What do you think of this scheduling? Please comment below.

Is Toby Whithouse writing for Doctor Who Series Six Or Was It A Slip of the Tongue?

Writer of both School Reunion and The Vampires of Venice Toby Whithouse was questioned at the San Diego Comic-Con as to whether he and Paul Cornell (Father's Day and Human Nature) would be writing for Series Six replied, 'We're contractually not allowed to say.'

Fellow panelist and novelist China Miéville then said, 'We can apply a bit of detective work here. If Toby’s contractually advised not to say anything, that must mean he’s under contract.'

So...will he or won't he? Only time will tell....
