Doctor Who: 10 Exciting Things Fan Already Know About Series 9

It's shaping up to be one hell of a series.

By Dan Butler /

Is it autumn yet? Nope, and if there's one thing Doctor Who fans know, it's that the waiting doesn't get any easier. In fact, it feels like it's all they're ever doing. The Doctor makes his latest triumphant return to our screens but then the timey-wimey fun is over before it's truly begun when the TARDIS closes its doors once again with the promise that it'll be "back before you know it". And it almost ever is. After all, the waiting is always the hardest part. Production on Series 9 is ongoing and thus far they've managed to remain particularly secretive about what lies ahead for the Twelfth Doctor in his second string of adventures. The lack of knowledge makes the whole process both exciting and infuriating in equal measure for the rest of us, who have been left to anxiously twiddle our thumbs - and scour the internet for the latest filming developments - until our beloved hero's long awaited return. What has been revealed about the new series looks very, very good. It's already shaping up to be one hell of a series and, with returning writers, directors and characters (oh my!), here's a round up of 10 exciting things fans already know about Series 9.
