Doctor Who Updates

The week has certainly been an eventful one in Doctor Who. On Sunday, the trailer for the Christmas Special was released at San Diego Comicon and online. We now known to be called Twice Upon a Time. They missed a trick in not calling it Twelfth Night but it's still a much better title than the rumored title of The Doctors.

The first exciting thing is that Polly is coming back. She will be played in this episode by an actor called Lily Travers. It's likely that Ben will also be coming back. The scene in the trailer may be on the Cybermens' Space Ship.

It has also been revealled that Mark Gatiss will be playing an army officer. This character seems important enough to appear on the official image and is likely to be the companion for this episode. He may or may descendant of the Brigadier.

David Bradley shows more promise. There's more of a twinkle to his performance. I wasn't sure about the idea of recasting the actor as the Doctor but he is growing on me. I expect Big Finish will announce an audio release for him soon enough.
