"Planet of the Dead", which stars David Tennant as the Doctor alongside Michelle Ryan (Formerly the star of the now defunct new "Bionic Woman") and Lee Evans, began filming in January in Cardiff and the team are now descending upon the Arabian Gulf to film further scenes for the episode. This new special will air on Easter (on BBC 1 or your trusty torrent site :) Two more specials will air in the fall, then Christmas before another FULL series (13 episodes) airs in March with the new 11th Doctor, actor Matt Smith and Executive Producer Steven Moffat at the helm.
