Any Whovians attending San Diego Comic Con might be a little disappointed..
The Who team will not have a panel this year, as confirmed by a BBC America source. They told The Nerdist:
Doctor Who‘s cast and creators will not be in attendance at Comic-Con International: San Diego 2014. They are currently in production until August on the upcoming season – 12 all new back-to-back episodes.
Given the unprecedented success of the global event around the 50th Anniversary, BBC America and BBC Worldwide will launch the first-ever Doctor Who world tour in August to celebrate the new chapter of the series starring Peter Capaldi.
Filming on the series will continue into August and then the team will travel the World as part of the series tour, visiting fans and press in seven cities across five continents.
The statement also confirms that this a shorter series- 12 episodes as opposed to the usual 13. No Christmas special this year, perhaps?
Comic-Con will be running at the San Diego Convention Center July 24 to July 27, with a preview night on the 23rd.
