MIRROR ONLINE CLAIMS ECCLESTON NOT TO RETURN AS NINTH DOCTOR

Eccleston: 'not in the episode'
News just in from Mirror Online: apparently Ninth Doctor Christoper Eccleston has declined to take part in the eagerly anticipated 50th anniversary episode of Doctor Who, due to air later this year.

"The BBC has confirmed that although the Ninth Doctor thespian met with show runner Steven Moffat last year to discuss potential involvement, the 49-year-old declined to sign up for the project. 'Chris met with Steven Moffat a couple of times to talk about Steven's plans for the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary episode,' a spokesperson told Mirror Online. “After careful thought, Chris decided not to be in the episode. He wishes the team all the best."

We're a bit disappointed to hear this news, but are holding on to the possibility that it's a cunning smokescreen designed to keep details of the forthcoming episode under wraps.

We'll bring you more news when – and if – we have it!

WHO 50TH UPDATE - NEIL GAIMAN - THE SNOWMEN

LATEST 50TH UPDATE:

Ninth Doctor, Christopher Eccleston has told RedCarpetNewsTV that Doctor Who's 50th anniversary hasn't even crossed his mind.

Doctor Who hits its landmark show on November 23, 2013 but Eccleston was giving nothing away.

"Would I like to be involved? If I told you that, I'd have to shoot you," he said.
So, what exactly is Eccleston's involvement, if any? Who knows for now. Only time (and space) will tell.

Check out Christopher Eccleston's full interview with RedCarpetTV below:



NEIL GAIMAN'S NEW EPISODE WILL FEATURE CYBERMEN:

The BBC has confirmed that Neil Gaiman's new Doctor Who episode will see the return of the Cybermen as the Doctor and his latest companion come into contact with the emotionless monsters and a gang of misfits.

With Gaiman on writing duty and the return of one of the shows most iconic villains, the episode looks set to be on of the highest points of the second half of season 7, and it's even attracted some stellar actors to bring it to life.

Along with Matt Smith and his latest companion, Jenna Louise-Coleman, Gaiman's instalment will see the aforementioned misfits played by Warwick Davis (Life's Too Short), Tamzin Outhwaite (EastEnders) and Jason Watkins (Being Human).
We. Are. Excited.

It's not long now until Doctor Who is back on our screens at Christmas and if these images aren't enough for you, take a look at the trailer for 'The Snowmen' below.



Here's hoping 'The Snowmen' is better than last year's 'The Doctor, The Widow and The Wardrobe'.
