WHOA. The TARDIS is abuzz with a MASSIVE rumor that the 12th Doctor will be revealed this weekend on BBC One!

In attendance will be Matt Smith and Steven Moffat, and the program will be hosted by Zoe Ball.

Capaldi as Doctor WhoThe network is moving Celebrity Mastermind back to make room for the announcement, which announcement of said announcement is under NDA for tonight… “supposedly”. WINK.

Lately, Oscar-winner Peter Capaldi has been linked to the role, which had its casting process secretly named “Whodini”. Capaldi already has some Doctor Who experience, appearing in “The Fires of Pompeii” and even the excellent Torchwood: Children of Earth.
