...And So It Begins Again!

Filming on the next season of Doctor Who has started once again in Wales, as of today, in what is becoming a great new annual tradition in July, one that I could get used to. It’s incredible that it was just a year ago that we got the first pictures from filming of the new series, almost instantaneously (due to the wonders of technology and the internet).

Reports are already flooding in of Billie Piper sightings in a hotel in Wales reading a script, and of production vans containing filming equipment rolling into Newport (where the first filming is to take place this year). The first photos from actual location filming should be out soon.

The above pic shows Executive Producer Julie Gardner, new Doctor David Tennant (wearing his own leather jacket I think, before anyone asks) and of course Billie Piper coming out of a restaurant a few weeks prior to the new season beginning filming, and is no doubt just a small teaser of what’s to come in the months ahead.

Get ready Doctor Who fans, as I think we’re in for another great ride!

That’s a deeply unflattering picture of all three of them smile

Hey, I don’t take the photos I just put them up. smile Though I’m not really certain that its all that un-flattering to Tennant.

Besides, I recall posting some very flattering, shall we say, photos of Billie from a certain Arena magazine shoot, a few months back, so I’m merely re-dressing the balance. smile

The photo was slightly out of proportion; I’ve fixed the size a bit. Still it’s a little unflattering.

The real excitement will begin whenever we first see filming with David and Billie, and of course see David in his Doctor’s costume for the first time. For that I can’t wait. This is all just a foretaste.
