Production Moves to Monmouth

Production of the new Doctor Who series will be moving north for several days in the near future as the production goes on location in the Welsh community of Monmouth, Outpost Gallifrey has learned. According to a letter sent by series location manager Clive Evans to residents in the town of Monmouth, "the scenes are snow scenes and are at night, so for one evening, you will be treated to a Christmas scene outside your window and an insight into the work of the BBC special effects team. We will also introduce horses and carriages, background artists in period costume and the use of braziers to take us back to Christmas 1869 [this might give you a clue that it might not be a silent night]." This will likely be the episode that features a guest appearance by actor Simon Callow. The letter goes on to note that emergency access will be available as usual for local residents. Out of respect to the series production team, so as to not disrupt the production work, Outpost Gallifrey won't report on the exact dates or specific Monmouth locations given in the letter at this time, but it will take place in the next several weeks.
