Yesterday The Mirror reported that the tenth series of Doctor Who would run for half of its usual twelve episodes to allow Peter Capaldi to pursue other projects, but Who fans can now breathe easy as showrunner Steven Moffat has dimissed the rumour as “bunk”.
“We’re making a full series,” Moffat tells Radio Times. “I can confirm that. I’m making a full series of 12 episodes, plus a Christmas special. I don’t know when it goes out. That’s up to someone else. And even if I did know – which I genuinely don’t – I wouldn’t be allowed to say so as I have absolutely no say in it whatsoever. [But] it’s not being reduced in size. We’re not making fewer episodes. That’s all complete bunk. I can confirm that absolutely.”
