The second block of filming for the new season of Doctor Who continues this week.
Peter Capaldi and Pearl Mackie, who play the Twelfth Doctor and new companion Bill, were spotted on location today in Newport shooting scenes for what is believed to be Episode 4, written by Doctor Foster creator Mike Bartlett.
The pair were seen filming outside Fields House, which was previously used in ‘Blink’. Could the episode be a sequel to Steven Moffat’s 2007 story?
The location has also appeared in ‘The Snowmen’ and Fields Park Avenue was used in the first episode of Torchwood: Children of Earth.
Several photos of today’s filming have been posted by fans on Twitter.
