BBC AMERICA has announced casting for ‘An Adventure of Space and Time,’ a film dramatization of the creation of Doctor Who, 50 years ago. David Bradley will play actor William Hartnell (the first Doctor), Jessica Raine will play producer Verity Lambert and Brian Cox has been cast as BBC Head of Drama Sydney Newman.  Sacha Dhawan will play Waris Hussein, director of Doctor Who‘s premiere episode, “An Unearthly Childâ€.
The scriptwriter Mark Gatiss has already been announced as writer, and he’s also serving as executive producer alongside current Doctor Who execs Steven Moffat and Caroline Skinner. The film is a co-production between BBC AMERICA and BBC Cymru Wales and will air later in 2013.
You can find more information here.
You may be thrilled to find out that BBC America launched yesterday a Whovian initiative:
Eleven authors have been commissioned to write ebooks for the British publisher Puffin, based on the eleven Doctors, and these will have a staggered release across the year, on the 23rd day of each month, so that the Eleventh Doctor’s story arrives on November 23, the date of the actual 50th anniversary.
To raise anticipation for each book, the identity of the writers – each one a big name in children’s literature – is being kept a secret. What we can tell you is that the first book, featuring the First Doctor, is called A Big Hand for the Doctor, and it has been written by Eoin Colfer, author of the Artemis Fowl books, and  the man who took on the formidable task of writing some more Hitchhiker’s Guidenovels.
Oh, and on the eleventh of each month (thematic numbering, see?) there will be a promotional video on the BBC Worldwide Doctor Who YouTube channel, that features each author as they come up. Eoin’s will be out on Friday, and A Big Hand For The Doctor is available for pre-order for $2.68 for Kindle onAmazon.com.
Do you love Doctor Who and you get BBC America? Ok, let me tell you what I found out: Â BBC America will be celebrating New Year 2013 with a Tenth Doctor TV marathon!

“Right then, Clara Oswald. Time to find out who you are…!”
Well… What do you think it’s coming on BBC America in 2013? There are only a few days of 2012 left… we all should take a lo0k, or a preview, or a peak – call is as you want – to next year’s shows:

The Doctor (MATT SMITH) is right: “It’s going to be epic!”. Especially because in 2013 it’s happening Doctor Who 50th anniversary.
- Aaa, refreshing to see that you take an interest again! Was she nice? asked Madam Vastra on the phone.
- I’ve just spoke to her! says the grumpy Doctor.
- And made your usual impact, no doubt!
- O, no impact at all! continue the Doctor with the same tone. That days are over.
- You can’t help yourself, it’s the same story every time, and it always begins with the same two words!
- She’ll never be able to find me again, she does not even have the name! Doctor! What two words?!
- Doctor? asked Clara pulling her beautiful head through the trap on the roof of the carriage. DOCTOR WHO?
The fans of the Doctor Who series already know that BBC One and BBC America have broadcast the Special Christmas episode, The Snowmen. The dialog from the beginning of this article appears in the first part of the episode, when a Doctor mourning his loses (the newest one being the Amy and Rory‘s disapearance) and prefer solitude, considering that the good old days, when he was saving the Earth, humans and Christmas, have past and they will not return.
The action is happening in the year 1892, and Madam Vastra and her companions (Strax and Jenny Flint) are investigating the problems that appeared with the strange snow fallen over town and the carnivore snowmen. The one behind all these is Doctor Simeon, the representative of the Great Intelligence institute, a sinister individual interested on the pond in the Clara’s master backyard. In the previous winter the Captain Latimer’s children’s Governess have drown in that very pond, and Doctor Simeon was interested on the ice that copied the woman’s genetic structure in order to create an army of live snowmen. With their help he wanted to conquer the world and end the human kind.
So the Doctor have to end his solitude (especially because of Clara who’s always searching for him, first driven by curiosity, then by need) in order to save the world. One more time. He does not save the Governess in the end, Clara dies, but, at least we take a peek of the Tardis when she visits it. If you haven’t already know, the TARDIS have a new look that have been presented the first time in the episode broadcast yesterday.
It was an interesting episode, very funny. The snowmen keeps you around the TV/computer not only because of the action itself (it does not have too many breaks), but also because of the dialog. Strax, the Sontaran traveling with the Doctor and Madam Vasta in this episode is very hilarious… but I let you discover how.
A few months ago, when the first episode of season 7, Asylum of the Daleks, had been first broadcast I had the surprise to recognize Jenna-Louise Coleman playing a character in it. She had been announced as the next Doctor Who companion after the exist of the Ponds (Amy Pond and Rory Williams) and she was scheduled to first appear in the Christmas Special episode (yesterday) under the name Clara.
Does the name Clara Oswin Oswald tells you something? 
 It’s the full name of the Governess from yesterday’s episode… and the character played by Jenna-Louise Coleman in Asylum of the Daleks. More: they are both dead! And, even now, Jenna-Louise is the current Doctor’s companion. Have I made you curious? 
 I say it’s enough to make you try to find more about all these… about the mystery surrounding the new character and the Doctor’s run to meet her again.
The cast: The Doctor (Matt Smith), Clara (Jenna-Louise Coleman), Dr Simeon (Richard E Grant), Strax (Dan Starkey), Jenny (Catrin Stewart), Vastra (Neve McIntosh), Captain Latimer (Tom Ward), Alice (Liz White), Digby (Joseph Darcey-Alden), Francesca (Ellie Darcey-Alden), Voice of the Snowman (Ian McKellen), Voice of the Ice Governess (Juliet Cadzow), Uncle Josh (Jim Conway), Young Walter (Cameron Strefford), Walter’s Mother (Annabelle Dowler), Bob Chilcott (Ben Addis), Lead Worker (Daniel Hyde), Girl (Sophie Miller-Sheen),

Christmas Eve, 1892 and the falling snow is the stuff of fairy-tales.
When the fairy-tale becomes a nightmare and a chilling menace threatens Earth, an unorthodox young governess, Clara (Jenna-Louise Coleman), calls on the Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith) for help. The problem is that the Doctor is in mourning, reclusive and determined not to engage in the problems of the universe. The things will change, eventually… they always does.

 ”You know what? I’ve never fully committed to a Dalek impression…” Until now, that is! EXTERMINATE!

Do I have to remind you that Ben Browder is going to guest star this week in Doctor Who?
I hope not! I hope you are already ready for the show and you are expecting it!
The actor known for his roles in Farscape and Stargate SG-1 will play the cowboy Isaac in Wild West adventure A Town Called Mercy, the episode that’s going to be broadcast on BBC One on Saturday.
A town called Mercy Ben Browder, cowboy
“It’s amazing that Doctor Who can attract these international stars,” Doctor Who writer Whithouse told SFX. “He was fantastic. I was really, really pleased that we got him because it’s an odd part – that character Isaac.
“Ben has this rather beautiful innate nobility that he manages to just convey, very simply and very economically. It was absolutely how I saw the character, so I was really thrilled with him, and delighted with his performance.”
Toby Whithouse also joked that he had avoided Doctor Who‘s previous jaunt to the Wild West – 1966′s William Hartnell adventure ‘The Gunfighters’.
