Here's some nice HD footage I got of them filming #doctorwho earlier. Looks to be the last scene of the episode where John Bishop (Dan) joins the Tardis team (I have tried my best to edit the audio, not used to editing audio on a video edit softaware)

@TheJoeLawson @markantro People think it’s biased but the bbc is presenting a view that you don’t agree with! The bbc gets complaints on being biased equally from both left and right sides. To me the BBC therefore has the balance correct:)

So my theory on how Donna will be in this episode is that she’ll be more of a cameo. Perhaps related to John I don’t think she’ll play a big part in the episode and I think the narrative will be kept she doesn’t know who the doctor is #DoctorWho

The queen visited Rochester Cathedral in 1961 for Maundy Thursday, here she gave silver coins (Maundy money) to 35 elderly men and women. Coincidentally the first silver coins were given here by King John in 1213. An absolute privilege to tell this story today.
