Know nothing of Doctor Who but want to make the leap into the wibbly-wobbly beyond with season six? Well this new BBC behind-the-scenes video will surely help you find out just WHO Who is.

Though this cool video is definitely not only for non-Who fans, it does serve as a nice crash-course introduction to the phenomenally long-running sci-fi series. There's also a lot of nice tidbits on our favorite Time Lord, The Doctor (Matt Smith)—plus it features exclusive interviews with Smith's partner in time travel, Karen Gillan, and executive producer/lead writer Steven Moffat.

Though, sadly, most scenes come from the fifth season, there's a nice little TARDIS scene that will be seen in the April 23 season premiere that's worth the look.




So What do you think A-HK?????  



Sorry Sorry stop the press,Allow me to insert this one also:


Major Death Coming In 'Doctor Who'? Official magazine claims that one of the core-four could depart the series in the opening episode


When you have a cast of four, it's easy to become worried when the show runner boldly announces that one of the core-four will die in the upcoming season.

And that is exactly what has happened with "Doctor Who," only Steve Moffat hasn't said that a character will die during the season; he's revealed that the shock death will take place in the very first episode.

Entitled "The Impossible Astronaut," the first in a two-part launch for the sixth season of BBC's long running science-fiction series, the episode will see The Doctor (Matt Smith) and his team heading to the United States for a very special mission ... one that came all the way from the White House.

The marketing buzz for the new season is already in full swing, with the latest issue of "Doctor Who" Magazine offering four distinct covers each brandishing the phrase, "One of them WILL die in the amazing season opener!"

"We’re not lying, we’re not cheating: one of those four people is going to die," Moffat told the magazine. "When I came up with this heart-wrenching twist, I thought ‘We’ll kill off one of the leads in the season opener.’ It lures you in."

Such a reveal has instantly triggered speculation over which of the group will face the executioner. Airlock Alpha's Michael Hinman is of the belief that Rory (Arthur Darvill) is the one to go. However, other trains of thought tease that it could be The Doctor himself. In the trailer for the new season, scenes feature two different Doctors – the one we know and love and another, rougher looking, copy.

Coupled with the fact that Rory was killed last season and then resurrected for a happy ending, the theory has some merit behind it. River Song (Alex Kingston) is also considered out of the running due to the fact that viewers have already witnessed her death during the Russell T. Davies era.

And that just leaves Amy (Karen Gillan) ...

Amy has been such a huge part of the marketing for the last year that I can't believe they'd kill her off.
While Rory isn't quite so prominent, I just think that after killing him 2 or 3 times last year that it would be an anticlimax for it to be him.

We've already seen River Song's death in "The Library".
But Moffatt has said that River Song's story will be wrapped up this year.
This will be I think her first meeting with the Doctor, and his last.

So I think it will be her, with some trademark Moffatt timey-wimey.

Or it could be a clone/duplicate of any of the four.

Anyway, I hate spoilers. So I won't be trying to find out.
