25.8.12 Treat Number 3

I don't think this trailer really needs any introduction. Time is broken...



I bet you didn't expect that did you. I have been working really hard to put that trailer together and although it doesn't feature any of the dialogue from the voice actors it should give a rough idea of what CDW series 4 will look like when it launches in 2013. Think of this trailer as test footage if you will.

As always, comments and suggestions are welcomed.

25.8.12 Treat Number 2

Here is the second treat of the day and I hope you will agree that it is one that has been worth the wait. Here in all his glory is the first full promotional picture of the 12th Doctor as he will appear in series 4 of CDW. Of course he will be voiced by the magnificently talented Edward Gore and today marks the first time that the Doctor has been seen properly in all his series 4 attire. Enjoy...

I should of course point out, that this is only one of the Doctor's two costume that he will wear in the series.

25.8.12 - Treat Number 1

Hello and welcome to a special day here at Christel Films. There will be a number of massive reveals today and a good number of treats for you, the devoted CDW and Centerpoint fans. The first of these treats is that I am revealing the first few episode titles for series 4 of Christel Doctor Who.

That's right, series 4 will mark a massive change for the series when it launches next year but today I am releasing the currently confirmed episode titles. The titles listed below are for episodes that feature in the first half of the series and are the episodes that I am writing. So without further ado, here goes.

1. Twelfth Night

2. The Life and Death of Fletcher Reed

3. Way of the Astari

4. TBA

5. TBA

6. Enemy of the Daleks

7. The Treasure of Devil's Mount

As you can see, episodes 4 and 5 are yet to be confirmed, simply because they are being written by guest writers who are beavering away at their scripts and have yet to confirm episode titles.

As you can also see, Episode 6 is a spoiler title in that it reveals the return of the Daleks. This is a very interesting and action packed story that I am really excited for you all to see.

Series 4...What do we know?

Although there has been very little information released so far about CDW series 4 I am beginning to kick into gear with "pre-production" and getting scripts out to voice actors. With this in mind I thought it might be a good idea to run through what we already know about series 4.





Characters:

The Doctor - Voiced by Edward Gore
Fletcher Reed - Voiced by Ryan John
Mystus - Voiced by Hannah Ray

Episodes:

14 in total, split over two 7 episode blocks. The first half of the series should be released around April of 2013 with the second half coming in October time.

The only two part story that I have planned at the moment will be episodes 13 and 14.

If all goes to plan there are 4 guest writers lined up to write for the series. Blink and Burkey return after writing for series 2 and new writers PreTitleSequence and J R Mortimer will be coming on board to lend their creative talents.

There could be two Doctor-Lite episodes.

There will be ONE HELL of a mid series-cliffhanger.

Story:

The Contingent will be the main (Deus-ex type) "baddy". If you remember rightly, they were created by accident when the Guardians of Time meddled in the Time War. They will have a BIG presence in the series and you will be seeing and hearing a lot of them. Infact, if I do say so myself, they are quite scary.
 
I can officially reveal that Ida Scott will be returning in her new role as "The Oracle". She featured in the 2009 specials as well as series 2 of Christel Doctor Who and I am pleased to say that she will make a return in the second half of series 4. 

The Doctor will have more than one costume for the series, and this will prove to be a very important plot-point.



This series is going to go in a slightly different direction to the others, and that is mainly because of what "The Contingent" can achieve. This has allowed me to add a lot of twists, turns and intrigue to what will hopefully be the best series yet.

25.8.12 Ten Days to go...

Although I haven't told you much about what will happen in 10 days time on August 25th, I assure you that you will not want to miss it. So, to tease a little bit more for you, take a look at this...

Series 4 Stories come rolling in...

Over the last few days I have received updates on two of the episodes for CDW series 4 that are being written by the fabulous guest writers that are PreTitleSequence and J M Mortimer.

The stories are very different in tone and should be very good fun to produce and watch. At the moment their stories are scheduled to fit into the second half of series 4 but this could change when I kick into production of the series towards the end of the year.

This of course means that things are still ticking along nicely for CDW series 4 and I am actually (somewhat surprisingly) still on schedule and ready to start production (filming) towards the end of the year.

25.8.12

Don't forget, on August 25th something very special comes to Christel Films...you do not want to miss this...

Written in the Stars is coming...

Fear not CDW fans! The second of the 2012 special "stories" entitled Written in the Stars is coming. I originally planned a July release for the comic book story but I have been overrun with work and the project had been put on the back burner somewhat.

I have now managed to pick it up again and have completed the first few pages of the story, which I shall release soon. Sorry for the delay.

Christel Doctor Who of the Week - Written in the Stars

The second 2012 story will be the "comic" story Written in the Stars. The story starts with Tabitha and Roger on their honeymoon and sees Tabitha telling Roger, who is now her husband, about one of her previously unseen adventures with the 11th Doctor.

I thought this was the best way to tell the story as it meant that could use the 11th CDW Doctor but not upset Christel canon. The story that Tabitha tells is set during the time of CDW series 2 between the episodes 6 (Memoirs of a Timelord) and 7 (City of the Damned Part 1).
