confirmed that Sarah Dollard has written an episode of the upcoming series. Dollard has penned Episode 10 of Series 9, directed by Justin Molotnikov, which is currently being filmed in Cardiff and guest stars Joivan Wade who is reprising his role as Rigsy from last year's episode Flatline. Sarah, whose previous credits include Being Human and The Game, has revealed that it's "a dream come true" to be contributing first hand to the Time Lord's televisual adventures.
