The Zygons Return for the 50th Anniversary Special
The Zygons Return for the 50th Anniversary Special
From The Official Site…
We’re delighted to confirm that the Zygons are returning to Doctor Who for the show’s 50th anniversary special.
Aside from flashbacks these malevolent shape-shifters have only appeared once before, threatening Earth in the Fourth Doctor adventure, Terror of the Zygons. Despite the fact that their solitary outing was over thirty years ago they remain a popular old enemy and in the 2010 episode, The Pandorica Opens, they were amongst the massed aliens said to be gathering above Stonehenge. Later, in The Power of Three, we learnt that Zygons had one of their ships under the Savoy Hotel in 1890 and apparently replaced half the staff with imposters! But this time they really are back…
We’ve already confirmed that in the anniversary special Matt Smith and Jenna-Louise Coleman will be joined by the returning David Tennant and Billie Piper. Screen legend John Hurt is also in the cast and earlier today we revealed that Joanna Page (Gavin & Stacey, The Syndicate) would also be appearing in this eagerly anticipated adventure.
We’ll be brining you more news soon!

April 11th, 2013 - 10:48amI want millions and zillions of monsters. Even more than TROA (The rings of akhatten) because then it would leave the two Doctor’s confused and then Matt could be forced to regenerate and- I’m going of topic. I just want loads and loads of monsters!

April 9th, 2013 - 2:11pmProblem is I thought they were filming at The Tower of London because Johanna Page was playing Elizabeth I??? She was seen in an Elizabethan dress.
More Time Lords
April 9th, 2013 - 1:29pmWhat if either or both The Master and The Rani were to return. I t would most likely be The Rani because she isn’t dead and was last seen travelling in her own TARDIS with a companion???
