Steven Moffat: "Shocks, Surprises, Heartbreak" in 2012 series

With production due to begin on the 2012 series of Doctor Who this month, showrunner Steven Moffat has dropped some hints about this year's thirteen-part installment and comments on the golden anniversary.

Doctor Who’s 50th anniversary is coming. In Cardiff, we’re gearing up for the biggest, the best and the most ambitious season we’ve ever made. There will be shocks, surprises and heartbreak – the Doctor is about to say goodbye to his very best friends, Amy and Rory.

And then he’s about to say hello to someone very different – the Doctor is going to meet someone very new in the very last place he could ever have expected…

Doctor Who will return to BBC One in the Autumn.
