Cool, very cool but SWA spelling.while out walking the dock...? Dock, i know it's petty, but come on fingers, out!

A spokesman for BBC Wales confirmed that Doctor Who was being filmed at St Woolos Cemetery.

However he remained tight lipped about what was being filmed and who was on set -saying the coporation never reveals storylines during production.

I think the sight of Cybermen walking through the grounds gave a slight hint as to what was being filmed haha!

It has to be either the Christmas Special or another special as this pesent series is the last one for quite a while.

I sent the Augus two photographs on Wednesday afternoon and told them what was happening, not the best photo's I may add. They had a couple of lines about it taken from what I told them and the photo's in last nights Argus.
I would have thought that they would have sent a reporter and their own photogapher up there yesterday but it seems that they didn't.
They BBC's security were a bit stroppy yesterday morning as I was told that the Cybermen were supposedly top secret for this Christmas special. A security man went and reported me to the producer who sent a message back to me to stop taking photographs. I was also asked to move my car where I parked it near my sons grave which was some distance from where they were actually filming.
It seems later that day there were more proffessional photographers there who were climbing the trees to take their photo's.
The actress on the scene was the Irish lass Dervla Kirwan out of Ballykissangel.

I got told off by security for taking pictures, its a public place! Still got some though :P Security kept following me and my mate, he took his SLR.

I rang a friend and he went over later that day with his SLR and was climbing trees :D

Oh and its for the xmas special, I asked :)

Local media are in an awkward situation when it comes to BBC or other filming. If the SWA or any other media upset the programme makers then when the media want their interviews or photo calls with the actors or director, etc then the programme makers would tell them "NO". That's why the local media only report this sort of news after the event. I should image most of the media would have know about the filming around the area after all the Doctor Who signs were along Cardiff Road pointing towards St.Woolas cemetery (filming) and the old Cattle market car park (used as a base) and were hoping a member of the public would snap some pictures for them, which has happened. I totally agree with you the security where a bit over powerful and they too told me to stop taking pictures but they can't stop you if you are in a public place. I just ignored them and carried on taking them.

I do know that David who plays Dr Who was there because he drove there himself, but why do nosey people spoil it and take photographs and contact the local paper, reporting the filming spoils it for those who enjoy the programme.

Probably didn't bother to go there because Dr who sucks big time.(said ianzemma) then somthing silly happened Darren Powis said Well done. How big and clever of you.

Yeah, before they all crawl back to Cwmbran.

To the idiot who said Dr Who sucked big time, GET A LIFE LOSER!!!

It's great that Newport and Cardiff feature in Dr Who. I watch the series over here and try to recognize some of the locations. Keep up the good work. A great series. Several of my high school classes have studied a few episodes, particularly the symbolism employed.

Look for the video on YouTube!

you do understand that DR who isn't real don't you?...it's just a tv program!

Calm down

Dr Who is no where near just a tv programme, it is the best in high quality british sci- Fi, something that ITV does not try to compete with i might add.

At least Dr Who is way more entertaining than the constant stream of pure drivel that comes from the likes of Manchester or London every week (naff soaps, brain dead game shows, search for a new star/ pop group fone in stuff etc) All aimed at the viewer that prefers this kind of lowest common denominator television, and not thte kind of Tv that that stimulates conversation
