Radio Free Skaro have recently published an article, which is apparently from an official BBC source, that is reportedly the first press release from the BBC for the upcoming series of Doctor Who with Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor. Doctor Who will return, with its fifth series, at some point during the Spring with The Eleventh Hour which features Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor and Karen Gillan as Amy Pond.

Matt Smith’s opening story, The Eleventh Hour by Steven Moffat, will have a total running time of sixty minutes, instead of the usual forty five minutes, according to Radio Free Skaro. Despite the reliability of Radio Free Skaro, this series five press release, which can be read on Radio Free Skaro here, hasn’t been officially released by the BBC at the moment.

The Eleventh Doctor makes his official debut sometime during the Spring, rumoured to either be late March or early April, in The Eleventh Hour which will be broadcast on BBC One and simultaneously on BBC HD. Doctor Who Hideout will keep readers informed regarding this series, featuring Matt Smith and Karen Gillan, as information is revealed before the series transmits.
