The 7th series of Doctor Who WILL all air in 2012

Remember the reports that the 7th series of Doctor Who wouldn’t all be shown in 2012, or hat budget constraints would reduce the number of episodes? Well, as part of a larger interview with The Daily Beast, executive producer Steven Moffat addressed that very specifically: “Absolute nonsense. First of all, we are airing in 2012. The only thing that’s happening is that we’re moving a bit later…There’s lots of reasons for that that will become clear quite soon…It is certainly not a reduced episode count. Do you think the BBC would really let that happen? With an average audience of 10 million?…Doctor Who’s international profile is huge. It’s never been more successful. You’re not going to reduce a show like this. The opposite is going to happen, in fact.”
