Rumours

  • It was originally rumoured that Sophie Okonedo was to play the character called "Liz Ten" which then was rumoured to be "Queen Elizabeth X". Sophie Okonedo has now been confirmed to play The Masked Woman, So whether Sophie Okonedo is still meant to be "Liz Ten" or another actor to play this, is still to be revealed.

  • It is rumoured that The Doctor and Amy will be swallowed by a creature 'The Beast' and have to make the 'Beast' regurgitate then to escape. This is proven more likely with them both being drenched (wearing there wet clothes) in the trailer[12]. If this rumour is true, it is possible that 'The Beast' is a Space Whale [13].
