Skinner talks Series 7, 50th & Movie

Doctor Who executive producer Caroline Skinner is interviewed over at io9. She doesn’t reveal anything major, but offers some intriguing teases of what’s to come.

On Series 7: “I’m thrilled and slightly daunted at the scale of what we’re achieving in the next series. We’re not too far away from starting shooting, and I think it’s going to be the biggest series ever.”

On whether Series 7 will have a split broadcast: “At the moment, we’re just embarking on shooting more episodes than we have done before. But in terms of the schedule, it’s just too early to confirm anything.”

On 50th anniversary in 2013: “The plans for the anniversary are going to be absolutely huge…2013 is going to be the biggest year in the history of Doctor Who so far.”

On the Doctor Who movie with Director David Yates: “Who knows what will happen with the Doctor Who movie? I think that obviously, [David Yates] had been talking with Jane [Tranter] about the possibility of it. I think that if a Doctor Who movie ever happens, that’s something that will be done hand-in-hand with Steven [Moffat] and the production team. But any movie’s a very, very long way off.”
