A Doctor Who series 11 round-up, with news of two more being added to the cast, and the shoot returning to Sheffield…
More news continues to filter through about the currently-in-production Doctor Who series 11, that of course sees Jodie Whittaker taking on the title role.
Thus far, the production has been to Cardiff, Sheffield and Cape Town. And this week, they’re back in Sheffield again, as filming continues on block three of episodes for the new run.
Several reports on social media have cited that the show is shooting around Park Hill for the next few days. Here are just a few of the reports…
Doctor Who is filming near Park Hill again for the next couple of days/nights. They’re at a house above the amphitheatre and Park Hill flats. Didn’t see much earlier so I predict night shoots. #DWSR https://t.co/OqQeMcAYIp

A film crew is setting up base at the B & Q Car Park, Queens Road, Sheffield. No word on whether this is for Doctor Who but it’s the same place they set up their base last time. #dwsrhttps://t.co/E4wXNkg43g
