Nightmare and More!

BBC - Doctor Who - Fri, 05/10/2013 - 5:45am

We’ve a massive weekend ahead with the return of the Cybermen in Nightmare in Silver on BBC One, tomorrow (Saturday) at 7pm.

The episode is written by the brilliant Neil Gaiman and is partly set in Hedgewick’s World of Wonders - once the greatest theme park in the galaxy, but now the dilapidated home to a shabby showman, a dysfunctional army platoon and the charismatic Porridge. When the Doctor, Clara, Artie and Angie arrive, the last thing they expect is the re-emergence of one of the Time Lord’s oldest foes.  But the Cybermen are back… faster and more fearsome than ever!

It’s an episode full of fantastic new characters, humour, wild situations, scares and some truly awesome moments with the Cybermen…

Then, as the end titles roll and we all look ahead to the series finale, you can enjoy the new prequel to The Name of the Doctor, here on this site or via Red Button. Entitled She Said, He Said and written by Steven Moffat it’s the perfect way to get ready for another epic episode!

We’ll also have a fascinating look behind the scenes of Nightmare in Silver featuring Matt Smith and Neil Gaiman plus the ‘Next Time’ trailer for The Name of the Doctor which you’ll want to watch again and again… There’ll be two galleries of stunning production artwork, storyboard galleries and a behind the scenes gallery as well as our latest quiz and a fact file for the return of the Cybermen in the Fourth Dimension. All that - and one or two surprises – will be available right after tomorrow’s episode finishes.

But if you can’t wait, why not check out clips, the trailer and an introduction to Nightmare in Silver, visit the gallery of images from the adventure, read our exclusive interview with Neil Gaiman or remind yourself of just what the Doctor will be up against tomorrow…

Neil Gaiman Interview: Part One

BBC - Doctor Who - Wed, 05/08/2013 - 10:44am

Nightmare in Silver is written by the internationally acclaimed Neil Gaiman whose previous episode – The Doctor’s Wife – was a brilliant, bonkers, wildly enjoyable adventure that won plaudits and the 2012 Hugo Award for the Best Dramatic Presentation, Short Form.

He returns with a story that sees the Doctor once more facing the Cybermen, but this being Doctor Who and Neil Gaiman, nothing about the iconic enemy’s return is as you’d expect, from the Cybermen themselves to the people battling them. We caught up with Neil and quizzed him about how he ended up back in the world of Doctor Who and what we can expect from his latest inspired nightmare…

 

Question: You’re back! Hurray! How were you persuaded to return?

Neil Gaiman:  It began with an email from Steven Moffat. He said, ‘I know you’re too busy ever to write another Doctor Who episode… but would you like to make the Cybermen scary again?’  And I thought, Agghhhh! I do! I really do! I said,Yes, I’m in…

I thought it would be really fun to make the Cybermen scarier than they have been recently and then I got completely side-tracked by a mad, strange romp that just keeps getting bigger and odder in which the Doctor and Clara have taken two children to a big amusement park and they find themselves embroiled in a very peculiar galactic empire which has fought a battle against the Cybermen - and won…

Q: What can we expect from the Cybermen and the adventure in general?

NG: We’ve moved on a little bit, technologically, from the last round of Cybermen we saw, because we’re a bit further into the future. So instead of Cybermats, we’re now going to encounter Cybermites… We have to deal with various things we’ve had to deal with in the past, such as the Cybermen’s ability to take over people and transform them into Cybermen. And this time, it’s going to get very, very personal for the Doctor…

Q: It’s got a great cast! Could you tell us about them and the characters they play?

NG: I’ve been very lucky! Jason Watkins plays Mr Webley… He has a few waxworks and other things and made the rather foolish mistake of landing on Hedgewick’s World… and now he can’t get off. He’s really sweet and he is aided by Porridge who is played by Warwick Davis. And he’s wonderful! His performance is just brilliant. It’s funny. It’s charming, it’s deep… it’s very sexy! I’m very proud to have written his stuff.

We also have Tamzin Outhwaite. Tamzin is great! She plays a character who’s running a platoon – a captain. She’s grumpy and you rapidly discover that one of the reasons she’s grumpy is because this is a punishment platoon – they are in exile. These are people who’ve been in trouble and they’re being got out of the way… And she was sent there because she was not obeying orders, and now she’s going to have to make a big decision on whether or not she obeys an order…

Q: So, you’ve got the task of making the Cybermen scarier and this eclectic group of people… How did your story develop from this ‘original plot’.

NG:  The only problem with my original plot was that I had no idea what I was doing with the Doctor. I knew what I was doing for everyone else in the story but I really didn’t have anything for the Doctor to do, except he was going to play chess, which isn’t really interesting. And then I had an idea. And the idea wouldn’t go away. So I emailed Steven Moffat and said, ‘Look, I have a mad idea. And it’s something that I wouldn’t do for any other actor except Matt Smith. I think Matt could pull it off. [Neil laughs and briefly outlines the Doctor’s plot-line]. And Steven Moffat said, ‘Go for it!’

 

Massive thanks to Neil Gaiman for taking time out to talk to us. We’ll be bringing you part 2 of our interview with him very soon and Nightmare in Silver is on BBC One on Saturday at 7.00pm.

The Crimson Horror: Tomorrow at 6.30pm.

BBC - Doctor Who - Fri, 05/03/2013 - 6:53am

The Doctor and Clara face The Crimson Horror on BBC One at 6.30pm, tomorrow - Saturday, 4 May.

It’s a brilliant episode written by stalwart Mark Gatiss, so expect plenty of action, chills, humour and a wonderful sense of the macabre. Screen legend Dame Diana Rigg plays the sinister Mrs Gillyflower and her real-life daughter, Rachael Stirling, is Ada. And if that’s not enough the adventure sees the return of the Paternoster Gang with Strax, Madame Vastra and Jenny all embroiled in the mysterious goings-on in Sweetville... As Matt Smith commented, ‘It’s nice having the Doctor and his gang back!’

The Crimson Horror is set during the Victorian era and we soon discover there’s something very odd about Mrs Gillyflower’s Sweetville mill, with its beautiful people and the perfectly clean streets that lead to it.  There’s something even stranger about the bodies being found dead in the area – they’re all bright red and waxy! When the Doctor and Clara go missing, it’s up to the Time Lord’s old friends, Vastra, Jenny and Strax, to rescue them before they also fall victim to the Crimson Horror!

Straight after the adventure finishes you’ll find the latest behind the scenes video featuring Matt Smith and Jenna-Louise Coleman that looks at the making of the episode – right here on the site. We’ll also have a range of new galleries, The Crimson Quiz, a fact file on the story plus the ‘Next Time’ trail for Nightmare in Silver.

But if you can’t wait for all that, check out our clips section where you’ll find an introduction to The Crimson Horror featuring Matt Smith and Dan Starkey plus two great preview clips and a trailer.
