Okay, so there’ve been film crews crawling around Cardiff Castle the last couple of days, I’ve been past the back of the castle a few times and seen all the prop and lighting trucks parked up there.

This evening I went past and there were horses, complete with riders. Dressed Early Modern style - like roundheads or cavaliers or something. That kind of era. Chain mail, helmets, the whole shebang.

There were also military trucks.

Doctor Who? I mean, we have a bunch of shows filming out of Cardiff these days, but surely only Doctor Who would have roundheads and modern military trucks in the same place at the same time?

A couple of weeks ago they were turning the back of the Main Uni building into a snowscape. In June.

I am now intrigued for the new season!

I think they've moved on from the Christmas special and into the new season proper - Pearl Mackie started filming a few weeks ago, the snow scene behind the uni was her first location shoot. If the knights on horseback were Doctor Who and not something else (Casualty or Holby City less likely, all things considered, but it could have been something for CBBC) then I'm guessing that's a different episode again. Time will tell!
