He's Reborn? (Doctor Who Season 5 Spoilers)

This might constitute for October, it might not, depending on what other juicy nuggets I can find. Reminders that the likes of Alun Vega, Planet Gallifrey, Life And Combom, Blogtor Who etc have covered a fair chunk of this information via their blogspot and photobucket accounts in the last few weeks. About four or five episodes have been filmed since Season 5/Season 1/Season 31 went into production in mid July.

Unknown Character (Terrence Hardiman), Amy Pond (Karen Gillan) and Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith) during a take.

Male fans seem to appreciate Karen Gillan in her robe, quite a lot from the online communities I've been frequenting the past month. She is pretty, I do admit that.

Location filming at a private house on Llandaff Green. It seems that the episode currently being filmed is in fact the first one.

The evidence is seemingly behind Matt Smith's lovely red robe as he's seen wearing Tennant's converse and brown pin-striped pants.

Another picture shows that this might be the neighbourhood in which he meets up with Amy Pond. Though we've seen no pictures of Karen Gillan today.

Annette Crosbie is the latest actor to sign on to the series (and I bet it will be a while before DWM announce her casting as well). Unsure of her role. Maybe a neighbour of Amy's? Grandparent perhaps?

There's been a few spoilers circulating as to how Eleven and Amy are supposed to meeting. One that has done the rounds has been Eleven meeting a younger version of his latest companion before meeting her in the present day. A bit like The Girl In The Fireplace, then.

Expect more Season 5 set spoilers as they become available and more interesting. Opinions on these blog would be appreciated.

ETA: Also according to someone on GallifreyBase, here's Season 5 writers/directors/blocks. Not sure how true these are.

* Neil Gaiman has said on his Twitter page that he is NOT writing for Season 5. Tis a shame. Remember the list isn't a proper confirmation, just what I found from a poster on GallifreyBase.

Neil Gaiman has already posted on his twitter regarding his involvement - it's not true.

I just read that, so I'll edit it.
