Clues: The End of Time

• In The End Of Time, we will meet a new type of Ood. Russell T Davies revealed this in the Q&A after the press screening of The Waters Of Mars. And little else, apparently.
• Check the trailer below to see some of the the returning cast which includes Bernard Cribbins as Wilf, Catherine Tate as Donna and Jacqueline King as Donna's horrible mum Sylvia.
• Expect to see a lot of Bernard Cribbins the specials.
• As you no doubt know by know, John Simm returns at last as The Master with Alexandra Moen as his wife. The Master will it seems be even more unhinged. Then again, he has been dead.

• The End Of Time also features Jessica Hynes, (Human Nature/Family Of Blood) two-parter. Other returning names include Billie Piper as Rose Tyler, Tommy Knight as Luke Smith, John Barrowman as Captain Jack Harkness (can you see him in the clip above?)and Elisabeth Sladen as Sarah Jane Smith.
• Timothy Dalton has been seen in photos dressed in the style of a Time Lord (Omega?), but so far he has only been heard - as the voiceover on Comic Con release of The End Of Time trailer.
• The first clip of the Christmas episode will be shown as part of the BBC Children In Need transmission this coming Friday, 20^th November. The scene is apparently around three minutes long. (Ed's note - this clip won't be available on the BBC website)
  
• Part two is apparently 75 minutes long - as revealed by RTD in Doctor Who Magazine, this makes it the longest single episode since the show returned to our screens.
• The End Of Time is apparently the title of the second of the two Christmas specials. The name of the first episode has yet to be confirmed and we'll find out what it#s called on Christmas Day; part two is expected to be screened on New Years' Day.

Appetite whetted yet?

New End of Time Snap

Two legends of Doctor Who - Bernard Cribbins and David Tennant - are snapped above in a scene from The End of Time. But what is that the Doctor is holding?

On first glance it might appear to be a really large packet of Marlboro - but this would of course be most uncharacteristic for the Doctor!

According to Den of Geek, the book the Doctor wields is called "Fighting the Future", by Joshua Naismith. Joshua Naismith meanwhile is a character in The End Of Time, played by David Harewood (Tuck in Robin Hood) eagle eyed fans will spot in the trailer.

Meanwhile another book by this Naismith character appears on an ad on the side of the bus in Planet Of The Dead... The plot thickens - especially when we consider earlier photos taken by fans while certain scenes in a bookshop between David Tennant and Jessica Hynes (Human Nature) were being recorded...
