Executive Producer(s)...

Well, they announced yesterday ([1]) that Caroline Skinner was leaving and that Faith Penhale would be taking over as executive producer for "the Fiftieth Anniversary", and more importantly for this discussion: "The recruitment process for a new executive producer for the next series will start shortly" (emphasis added). I don't expect this is enough information to warrant re-creating the Series 8 page yet, but it's nice to see some sort of official confirmation - however small - that the Beeb are planning something for the show beyond the end of 2013!

In so many words

...as of two days ago, they've announced the commissioning on the official DW website - http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/doctorwho/articles/Doctor-Who-A-New-Series-and-More - no word yet on how many episodes or when they'll air, but at least we've got it in so many words, from the BBC, that Series 8 is definitely happening with Moffat staying as head writer. we also know Brian Minchin will serve as Series 8's other executive producer. time to create the page now?

• We also have (several times now) confirmation that both Matt Smith and Jenna-Louise Coleman will return as well, and Matt states filming will begin either at the end of this year, or at the start of 2014. d ●●● 15:55, May 28, 2013 (UTC)
