First look at Jenna Coleman's "thrilling" new BBC One drama The Cry

Filming on Former Doctor Who Companion Jenna Coleman's new thriller series The Cry has begun, and now the BBC has released two first-look images from the four-part psychological drama.

Based on the novel by Helen Fitzgerald, the series follows Joanna (Coleman) and her husband Alistair (Top of the Lake's Ewen Leslie) as they are forced to face an unthinkable tragedy when her baby is abducted in a small rural town in Australia.

As Joanna and Alistair travel from Scotland to Australia to visit Alistair's mother and fight his ex-wife for custody of Alistair's daughter, the couple struggle to cope as they're thrust under intense public scrutiny while trying to deal with their personal trauma and keep their marriage afloat.

Over the series' four episodes, The Cry chronicles the disintegrating psychology of a young woman, exposing the myths and truths of motherhood, while also focusing on the collapse of a marriage in the aftermath of a tragedy.

Alongside the two images, The Cry has also confirmed its full cast line-up, featuring a huge array of big names.

In addition to Coleman and Leslie, we'll also be seeing The Crown's Stella Gonet as Alistair's mother Elizabeth, X-Men: Origins actress Asher Keddie as Alistair's ex-wife Alexandra and Romper Stomper's Markella Kavenagh as Alistair and Alexandra's daughter Chloe.

The cast is rounded out by The Danish Girl's Sophie Kennedy Clark, Wentworth's Shareena Clanton and Seven Types of Ambiguity actor Alex Dimitriades.

The Cry will be filmed in Scotland and Australia (in Glasgow and Melbourne if you want to be precise) and marks the first scripted television commission for Scottish-based production company Synchronicity Films.

"The start of shooting marks an incredible moment for our company as we start production on what is a truly international drama with Scottish roots," the company's executive producer Claire Mudell said in a statement.

"We could not be more thrilled to be shooting the show in the incredible Australian light of Melbourne, and contrasting that with the beautiful West End of Glasgow."

The Cry will air on BBC One in the UK and ABC in Australia.

Doctor Who Series 11: What We Know So Far - Part 1

Hey guys! So i'm going to go through everything we know about Series 11 So Far.

So we have a few major changes for this upcoming Series.

First of which was the announcement of Steven Moffat and Peter Capaldi leaving following the 2017 Christmas Special. 

It was announced that Chris Chibnall, best known currently for creating 3 series of Broadchurch.

Naturally, as Peter Capaldi announced he was leaving Doctor Who, a replacement needed to be found.

On the 16th July 2017, Jodie Whittaker was announced as the 13th incarnation of The Doctor. She has prviously starred in St Trinian's films, Broadchurch and BBC's 2017 drama Trust Me.

It was also announced that Pearl Mackie would not be returning in Series 11 as Bill Potts, so a new companion(s) had to be found.

On the 22nd october 2017, Bradley Walsh, Mandip Gill and Tosin Cole were cast as Graham, Yasmin and Ryan.

Filming for Series 11 began in November 2017 and the 13th Doctor's outfit was announced at the same time.

So new outfit and a new look for the TARDIS also, gone is the deep blue of the exterior and the pull to Open sign is now dark with white writing. 

The interior however remains to be seen. On New Years Eve 2017, Doctor Who's Official twitter page and YouTube posted a video of the deconstruction of the current TARDIS interior, this is the first major change to the TARDIS interior since Series 7 part 2. So we shall have to wait and see.

It has also been announced that we are only getting 10 episodes this year and they will all be 50 minutes long.

Now if you haven't seen the Christmas special please stop reading now!

Now we know when The Doctor regenerated at the end of the Christmas Special "Twice Upon a Time" The TARDIS was blowing up and sparks flying everywhere and then The Doctor was booted out of the TARDIS in the middle of space and can be seen slowly falling to earth.

So, following this we know that The Doctor will start the Series TARDIS-less.

Filming has been taking place in Sheffield, Newport (Wales) and Cape Town South Africa so far.

Here a few images:

 

Doctor Who Series 11 is due to air in the Autumn, although and August start is being rumoured, so maybe late summer then?

No titles or writers have been announced so far, but i'm sure we will find out soon.

Thats all for now till next time

Jenna-Louise Coleman teases 'spine-tingling' Doctor Who Finale

Jenna-Louise Coleman has hinted that Doctor Who's series seven finale will be 'spine-tingling'.

The as-yet unnamed episode has been penned by Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat and is expected to lead into the 50th anniversary special.

Do Not Read on if you do not want any spoilers!

Coleman has now revealed that one of the major reveals in the season finale will be why the Victorian-era version of Clara's birthday is November 23, the same day that Doctor Who premiered in 1963.

"In the Christmas episode, I didn't know why that was the case. But again, we will find out by the end of this series," she told TV Guide.

The actress added of the finale: "It's really exciting - [it] is phenomenal. My spine was tingling when I read it.
"Again, I'm teasing you so badly here, but there's the beginning opening sequence, which [is] kind of building up into the 50th. It's just huge."

Coleman also opened up about the very first time she walked onto the new TARDIS set while filming last year's Christmas episode 'The Snowmen'.

"It was strange because obviously it was a brand-new TARDIS, so it was a set that nobody's ever used before or seen before at this point," the star recalled. "But this is where you're going to be for however many [of] the next couple of seasons or years, so it's like mine and Matt's new place."

She went on to say: "For him, he was running up and down all the stairs like a giddy kid who got his toy back. We didn't actually have the TARDIS for the first four months of me shooting because it was still being built.

"So it was pushed away in a dark corner and cordoned off so nobody could go in and look at it."
Coleman previously admitted that landing a role on Doctor Who was the first job that has impressed her family and has called the series a "mad" adventure.

Doctor Who continues this weekend with the Mark Gatiss-penned 'Cold War', which features the return of iconic monsters the Ice Warriors.

The series airs on BBC One in the UK and BBC America in the US.
