The hype for Doctor Who‘s 50th anniversary in November 2013 has begun.

The press release noting the start of filming on Doctor Who promises “fourteen big blockbuster-movie episodes – each a brand new epic adventure featuring new monsters and some familiar foes as you’ve never seen them before” for the seventh series.

It also confirms that David Bradley, Rupert Graves and Mark Williams will all be appearing (although not whether they will be in the same story).

All of this, the release states, comes “as the show builds towards its enormous, climactic 50th anniversary year.” Series seven is expected to start airing in the autumn, and continue into 2013.
