Starts on a junkyard planet - "the Totter's Lane at the end of the universe."

Actor Michael Sheen is a "glorious guest villain."

Actress Suranne Jones: "Somebody who may turn out to be an old acquaintance of the Doctor's with a new face."

Plays with 47 years of Doctor Who mythology - takes "stuff" from The War Games and "an old William Hartnell episode I remembered."

Includes scenes where Matt is "vulnerable, disturbed and upset".

Gaiman gives a script example:
AMY: I told you to keep an eye on The Doctor.
RORY:
He'll be fine, he's a Time Lord.
AMY: It's just what they're called. It doesn't actually mean they know what they're doing.

ETA: On Twitter, Gaiman had this to say about Idris (Suranne Jones) - "May 14th, you will know all. And you will marvel at her great intelligence."
