Smith is confirmed to be in the show at least until the 50th Anniversary special. That would be the Christmas 2013 episode, unless they aired an extra-special episode early or as part of Nu-Who S8.

Of course, 11 being in the Anniversary episode doesn't preclude his regenerating prior to that.

I don't think the 2013 Christmas special will be the 50th anniversary show. Now Doctor Who is back on an Autumn schedule I expect it will be the closest episode to Nov 23rd.

If the footage escaping from New York is being interpreted right, the departure of Amy and Rory will be very emotional, well-acted and well-written... but a variation on something Moffat has done before.

So pretty consistent with his overall modus operandi.

Amy finds The Doctor's copy of Lesbian Spank Inferno?

That being an alternate universe where Amy is a fascist thug and Rory wears an eyepatch?

Karen Gillan joined Twitter. And apparently hung out with Brent Spiner.

Spiner? I hardly know her!

I'm now following Karen Gillan... which sounds a wee bit creepy (but not entirely undesirable, well for me at least).

Is that book upside down?

[David Meadows]

It doesn't look upside down to me. You're probably too used to looking at Chinese books

No, it's good. I think Amy and Rory have been great companions, but this is the nature of the programme. They're going to have stayed for about the right time by the time they go I think.


I am slightly worried by some tweets today that suggested Chris Chibnall wrote their final episode though. Is that right?

[craggy]

aww. couldn't we at least keep one of them? I've loved Amy since the start, but it took a few episodes to warm up to Rory, and now he's gone too! Her off Emmerdale better be good!

Don't think so: http://en.wikipedia....Eleventh_Doctor

Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill will leave their roles in the fifth episode of the series, an episode which will feature the Weeping Angels.[40] Alex Kingston will also return to the series for this episode.[41][42] Jenna-Louise Coleman will play the Doctor's new companion, and make her first appearance in the sixth episode of the series, which will be aired around Christmas 2012.[43] The currently planned broadcast order has a first episode written by Moffat and directed by Nick Hurran, followed by an episode written by Chibnall, directed by Metzstein and guest starring Williams, Graves and Bradley.[44] The third episode is a Wild West adventure starring Browder, Scarborough, Dominic Kemp and Rob Cavezos and written by Whithouse, part of which was shot in Spain in March 2012.[44][45] The Daleks are also slated to appear.[46][47] The Australian ABC iView website announced that the seventh series of Doctor Who will be released September 2012 in Australia.[48] On 4 April, Doctor Who Magazine reported that episode 4 would also be written by Chibnall, and would be directed by Douglas Mackinnon.[33]
[edit]

Looks like Chibnall wrote eps 2 and 4, and this is 5.

[Dave Wallace]

I can't imagine anyone but Moffat would write their final appearance.
