could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I read some where that John Barrowman, is in the final 3 episodes of the series meaning he should be appearing in episode 11..

yes I saw some thing similar mentioned on the spoiler thread over on O.G..

[Andy Frankham]

MORE Daleks?! *yawn* Is it really necessary to have 'em in every series? How tedious.

[Pip Madeley]

They were in the first four seasons originally, I can't see why they won't be this time round. They're popular, they pull in viewers.

[Matthew T]

We know nothing really do we? By this stage in 2004 we knew everything about the first 6 episodes anyway. I like it this way!

yep it would be wonderful if they could keep as much seceret as possible so we can start watching the new series knowing absoloutly nothing..n

[Carol Baynes]

I want the Cultof Skaro back! Dalek Jack and Dalek Matt, or whatever they were called.

The Black Dalek- what was he called? I like to think he's the Dalek supreme from the earlier stories.

[SiHart]

He was, as my nephew reminds me all the time, called Dalek Sec.

Si xx

[Pip Madeley]

They're on the PS news page - along with details of how to buy them.

[Larry]

well we now know the Daleks are definitely coming back..

[Milky Tears]

BBC released new info this morning. Well, new if you're a crazy fool.

Doctor battles Daleks in New York

An updated version of the Daleks returned to the series in 2005
The Daleks are poised to do battle in New York in a forthcoming episode from the latest series of Doctor Who.

The two-parter will see the show's star David Tennant and new assistant Martha Jones, played by Freema Agyeman, face their famous foes in 1930s Manhattan.

"This time, their plan is the most audacious Dalek scheme yet! Even the Doctor finds himself out of his depth," said lead writer Russell T Davies.

Tennant and Agyeman will be joined on the show by Spooks star Miranda Raison.

Raison, who plays journalist-turned-spy Jo Portman in Spooks, will feature alongside Holby City's Hugh Quarshie and Ryan Carnes, of Desperate Housewives' fame.

Other stars set to feature in the new series - the third since the BBC drama was revived in 2005 - include The League of Gentleman's Mark Gatiss and actress Anne Reid.

The new series, which follows a Christmas special featuring comedian Catherine Tate, begins in Spring 2007.

Agyeman, 27, will replace Billie Piper as the Doctor's new companion, while Tennant returns for his second complete series.

Fans recently named Tennant the best Doctor Who in a poll, beating Tom Baker into second place.

The Scottish actor, 35, received 28% of votes cast in a survey of 4,000 readers of Doctor Who Magazine.

"This is a real honour, and I am totally gobsmacked," he said.

So much for the sad gits who try to avoid spoilers! It's clearly a waste of time.

[Si Hunt]

People called Pip in Who! "Echoes of the Protii" got there first!

Si.

[Pip Madeley]

Pip Torrens

Add a 't' in there and it sounds like a great website.

[Milky Tears]

An episode with anyone called Pip in it will be completely destroyed for me.

[Si Hunt]

Manhatten will look very much like Cardiff, I predict.

[Anthony Williams]

Manhatten will look very much like Cardiff, I predict.

It would be amusing if it did, but the last DWM confirmed that there'd been filming in New York!

probably just location filming of certain buildings and nothing else..

[transvamp]

Strrangely enough I'm starting to look forward to it. At the end of Season Two I dismissed it as an insular, bitchy series for shallow, sneering fans. But with Rose absent I think there's a chance it might improve and might become a series that's actually about adventure and discovery rather than self-involvement and mockery. If they keep up good sci-fi elements like the Judoon and the immortality episode, I might not even mind being Earthbound.

[Jonno]

RTD's Production Notes in the new DWM suggest that S3 will be anything but Earthbound...
