Doctor Who filming, 07.10.09
More and more filming :)
The scene witnessed was the Doctor, Amy and the guy in hospital overalls. There was also a man and his dog (who's been mentioned in other filming) and they were all looking up at something in the sky.
The dog barks and the Doctor goes towards the beer garden and starts talking down to something (Rumors were that it was a CGI dog but this seems very unlikely).
"Hello prisoner X"
There was also something about aliens from a Level 20 planet, and "scanning the Earth 6 billion people". At this point the Doctor has taken out his old, battered Sonic Screwdriver.

Then a nearby phone box blows up, ariels turn randomly, the fire engine's ladder goes up and down, and a toy helicopter flies out of a little boys hands.
The Doctor then says something about "Not testing all the sonics settings".... "Setting four thousand"... "Do you think they will notice?" The other two seem a little nervous at this.
He then points it defiantly at the sky... and the poor Sonic blows up.

Doctor Who filming, 05.10.09
I'm so stupidly excited, I may just explode...
Hehe! New filming has made things very very fun!
So, its still for episode one as this lovely clapperboard tells us:
NOTE TO PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW THIS YET: Steven Moffat's Series 5 is called Series 1. - Mac.
And its also NOT set in Scotland as this lovely flag tells us:
And its also NOT set in Scotland as this lovely flag tells us:
An England flag
And also apparently its a time travel story. Part of being set in 1996, when Amy was 8, the other part in 2010 when she is 20. Although this is unconfirmed.
A newspaper heading from the 90's
There was also an icecream van and a Fire Engine too.
Now to put the scenes into some sort of coherent order. Remember, this is all just guesswork!
Scene 1
Here we have what looks like a very early on meeting of Amy and the Doctor. Here's an amazing video from Skarofighter:
Dialogue goes something along the lines of:

Dialogue goes something along the lines of:
The Doctor: Why aren't there any ducks?
Amy: (Waves hand dismissively) Oh, you know...
The Doctor: Then how do you know the Ducks talk!
Amy: ... Is it important if it's a duck pond?
The Doctor: Ungh...The method's not done yet. I'm not ready for all this! I'm not done!
So it looks like he's only just regenerated very recently.
Scene 2
The scene involved the Doctor and Amy hurrying up a lane, and running across to the icecream van. Then the Doctor ran off, jumped over the flowerbed at the side of the White House, and ran inside. Amy ran after him, but took the more conventional route through the front gate.

As they came up the lane, the Doctor shouted something about a "cricket bat" and someone thought Amy said something about "12 years of therapy". Someone else reckoned they thought the Doctor said he was having food cravings.
Another line that was heard but unplaced was:
I've got 20 minuets to save the world and the Post Office is closed!
Scene 3
Apparently a scene was filmed where the the sun disappears. Amy was heard to be saying: "What's happening, why's it going dark?"
As well as this scenes were recorded of transfixed extras gazing skyward and pointing their mobile phones.
And it looks like this superb video from Ahremsee fits into this scene:
Doctor: Welcome to the end of life on earth.
Amy: Are you just going to sit there?
Doctor: Why shouldn't I just sit here? Oh, here they come, the human race ... down a video phone ... I saw it and I missed it!
Amy: You told me you had a time machine.
Doctor: Welcome to the end of life on earth.
Amy: Are you just going to sit there?
Doctor: Why shouldn't I just sit here? Oh, here they come, the human race ... down a video phone ... I saw it and I missed it!
Amy: You told me you had a time machine.
Scene 4
Towards the end of the shoot, the crew changed the local clock to 11.30
The new scene they were filming (although a short one) has been reveled to be scene 43
They filmed a zoom close up of Matt. The camera was on a track and they pushed it towards Matt quite quickly. It stopped just short of him and after a few minutes he put on a shocked/panicked face and jumped to one side out of camera shot:
And thats it!

And thats it!
Another interesting point noticed was that there was also an unknown doctor in scrubs and a fireman with a large dog (called 'Bolsey') who weren't ferried away like normal extras. So perhaps they have a larger part in the episode.

Doctor Who filming, 02.10.09
Filming has been very secretive recently! Clearly the Moff doesn't wish anything to get out about the new series and Smithy.
But we've at least been given something thanks to the fantastic people at OG!
Thurs 1st Oct
Filming took place in a village called Rhymney, in the cemetry of the old vicarage. Not much could be seen but they filmed a scene with Karen at night.
Friday 2nd Oct
There was crew setting up at Cathedral Green today. A big pond was created in the centre and Newspaper signs indicate its set in the 1990s, and apparently in a place called Leadworth.
A huge thanks to GSSWales, baraduim, Scooty, Lucky Lady and anyone else who has braved the world of set reporting :)

Episode 1
At the moment, we only have very early set reports for series 5. Of course I have no idea which filming is for which episode, or even if they're the same episode or not... But I like organising things and so they shall be organised!
Episode Location: Earth
Aliens/Enemies: Unknown
New Characters: The Doctor, Amy Pond,
Gadgets Used: Unknown
Episode Objective: Unknown
29.09.09
Filming went on inside a private house on Llandaff Green. There wasn't much to see at all, but there were some lights at the window.
Smithy, Karen Gillan, were on set as well as Tracie Simpson which suggests that they're filming block 3 at the moment. As well as this, guest star Annette Crosbie was on set.

But the most exciting bit of all is that although Smithy was covered in a lovely maroon dressing gown, we can see a glimpse of converse shoe and brown pinstripe trousers! It seems hes wearing Tennant's Doctor outfit! Which also means this is probably the first episode!
And if this is the first episode then perhaps Annette is playing Amy's grandmother?

Doctor Who filming, 09.09.09
From the looks of it, these reports could be a new episode. I'm not sure that monks and Abbeys link to any other set reports we've seen. Then again, its always guess work ey?
So! Filming took place at Neath Abbey, and was irritatingly hidden away behind crumbling walls and high level security.
But Baraduim had this to report:
![[mattys_kagi.jpg]](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP3kIR9oACnJO3ap_wuXjaK_4AJP-84q-AUh0hPhFYCpqsn3cCu2T4-wIW1Q8pvgOGD2fVSRF3MXiyDPBy3LVfNXC5sxLDtLTjj68o-YEvSaZTIqat2_1_IpvMpsEcizRXAMNmMtDvFd8/s1600/mattys_kagi.jpg)
From the looks of it, she may just be wearing a hospital gown underneath, as well as some mysterious black wires that you can just make out. Medical sensors?

But Baraduim had this to report:
There wasn't an awful lot to see, apart from the production crew's seemingly random moving of vehicles at regular intervals, and cars and minibuses going to and fro... Snipbits that came out from locals were that the crew would be there for a couple of days.
We did see quite a few of the cast wandering backwards and forwards (between takes?), most seeming to be wearing robes of some sort, very monkish in look.

And who's that last mysterious looking monk? Well, if you're familiar with the show the Demon Headmaster, then you'll know its Terence Hardiman!
Looks like he's got a big key/necklace thingy around his neck. Significant?
And DigitalSpy had a few more photos of Smithy and Karen in between takes.
And ANobleToaster fantastically provided this picture:
And according to WalesOnline:
giant windows were created out of grey “screens” and extras – children wearing black robes or dirty clothes – were positioned inside.

1st Report (22/08/09)
From ThisIsSouthWales
The BBC has been filming the latest series of the show at a council-owned World War Two underground bunker near the TA Centre in West Cross.
The special effects crew arrived on the set early yesterday, and the location was a hive of activity as cameras rolled inside the Joint Resilience Centre, off Mumbles Road.
The special effects crew arrived on the set early yesterday, and the location was a hive of activity as cameras rolled inside the Joint Resilience Centre, off Mumbles Road.
Location manager Gareth Skelding was keen to keep details under wraps and would not spill the beans on which actors were on location.
He said: "There's very little I can say — it's all a big secret. Obviously, we don't want the storylines to get out. We're filming inside the Joint Resilience Building, which makes it easier to keep it quiet."
He said: "There's very little I can say — it's all a big secret. Obviously, we don't want the storylines to get out. We're filming inside the Joint Resilience Building, which makes it easier to keep it quiet."
Filming went on at North Road, on the roof of the Glamorgan building in Cardiff Uni.

3rd Report (28/08/09)
First up, there were some trailers set up with the signs on their doors reading: Childers, Todd and Bracewell.
There were reports of 'hundreds' of sandbags on the roof that resemble a bunker of some kind. Lots of barbed wire all about, and a WWII soldier spotted with gun.
Indy125 reported how "I can't see anything but I can hear people shouting "bang!" and things like "cease firing" echoing down the lightwell. There's also a smoky haze drifting down."
There was also some dialogue floating down about "our new secret weapon"...

Amy (in the same costume as on the beach)
A dalek which is a grey/black matte in color
A Scientist believed to be played by Bill Paterson
You can see more amazing photos of this here:
Filming took place at Jacob's Antiques, but although it was inside, the intrepid set reporters have still managed to dish out the goods!
There are LOADS more amazing photos and videos of the filming here:
(If I have used any material you didn't wish to be shared, please let me know and I'll remove it immediately. Apologies in advance.)
First off, there were a few trailer doors, which read:
The Doctor, Amy, Enemy No.2, and Churchill.
The Doctor, Amy, Enemy No.2, and Churchill.
Its assumed that Enemy No.2 is referring to the Daleks since Nick Briggs (voice of the Daleks) was spotted leaving the building:
Alun.Vega (the god who he is) has pieced together everything he's witnessed into a comprehensive and excitable account of what he thinks is going on:
As far as I can tell, the story so far is that Bill Paterson's character is some kind of Professor, a boffin working for Churchill during WW2. He believes he's invented the Daleks as a new super-weapon, though he's a bit fuzzy on how the idea came to him. The Daleks are stringing the Prof along, playing docile and very British.
DALEK: "Would you care for some tea?"
Churchill doesn't care where the Professor's "ironclads" came from, only that they have the potential to defeat the Nazis and win the war.
CHURCHILL: "Death to our enemies... Death to the 3rd Reich!"
THE DOCTOR: "Yes, yes, and death to everyone else too."
The Doctor is trying to convince the Prof and Churchill not to unleash the Daleks, but they're not taking him seriously (possibly because he seems implausibly young?) hence his growing frustration and anger, as he turns on the playing-it-innocent Daleks:
THE DOCTOR: "I sent you back into the void. I saved the whole of reality from you. I am the Doctor, and you are the DALEKS!"
The Professor (Bill Paterson) seems to warm to Amy, as they're both Scottish. I believe the Prof says: "Are you from the Islands?"
DALEK: "Would you care for some tea?"
Churchill doesn't care where the Professor's "ironclads" came from, only that they have the potential to defeat the Nazis and win the war.

DALEK: "No, we created you."

PROFESSOR: "I created you!"
DALEK: "No, we created you."

Doctor Who filming, 27.08.09
Filming has been going on today at North Road, and its all excitement!
There's been further report on 'hundreds' of sandbags on the roof that resemble a bunker of some kind. Lots of barbed wire all about, and a WWII soldier spotted with gun.
Spotted on the roof so far:
First up, there were some trailers set up with the signs on their doors reading: Childers, Todd and Bracewell.
A crane was also present near the Psych building, firstly removing ducts and other materials from the roof, but then afterwards it was used to lift things onto the roof of the Glamorgan building...
