DOUBLE TROUBLE AS OSGOOD TAKES ON THE TERRIFYING ZYGONS
Cruel, heartless and shocking? Having being killed by Missy (Michelle Gomez) in the show’s series eight finale ‘Death in Heaven’, the Doctor’s biggest fan and UNIT scientist Osgood, played by Ingrid Oliver, has been brought back by Steven Moffat for Doctor Who series nine.
Steven Moffat, lead writer and Executive Producer, said:
“Osgood is back, fresh from her recent murder at the end of last series. We recently confirmed that Osgood was definitely dead and not returning – but in a show about time travel, anything can happen. The brilliant Ingrid Oliver is back in action. This time though, can the Doctor trust his number one fan?”
Speaking on set, Ingrid Oliver commented on her reappearance:
“As every actor who’s worked on Doctor Who will tell you, there’s always the secret hope you’ll get the call asking you to come back. To actually receive that call is both unexpected and brilliant. The word ‘honour’ gets banded about a lot, but it really is, it’s an honour. Especially because I was so sure Osgood was a gonner after the last series!”
The two-part episode is currently being filmed in Cardiff and is written by Peter Harness (Doctor Who – Kill the Moon, Wallander, Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell), produced by Peter Bennett and directed by Daniel Nettheim (Line of Duty, Glue).
Also joining Peter Capaldi (The Doctor) and Jenna Coleman (Clara Oswald) and confirmed for guest roles in the double episode is Jemma Redgrave, Jaye Griffiths, Cleopatra Dickens, Sasha Dickens, Abhishek Singh, Todd Kramer, Jill Winternitz, Nicholas Asbury, Jack Parker and Aidan Cook.

“Both [Anderson and Coleman] take their characters to new and deeply unhappy places – particularly Coleman, whose Clara is so grimly determined to get what she wants she’s prepared to blackmail the Doctor, threatening to take away the thing he holds most dear.

Some breaking (kinda) and really good Doctor Who news:
Danny Pink has a little sister – she’ll be played by Ellis George – and she’ll be a member of the TARDIS crew! Maybe it’ll only be for one episode, who knows, but I’m really hoping she’ll be the Susan to Danny and Clara’s Ian and Barbara. [x]
