EPISODE 11: “THE LODGER” STORYLINE DETAILS

The Daily Star have an article which tells the storyline of the episode of Doctor Who series 5 which is currently filming. Look away now if you don’t want it spoiled. In the episode the Doctor forgets to set the Tardis co-ordinates and it vanishes with Amy still inside. He has to live a normal life until the Tardis returns. The Doctor will become flatmates with a character played by James Cordon, they will drink, play football (The Doctor wears a number 11 football shirt), and do other things. The Doctor will impress his new friend by adjusting the TV set to broadcast shows from the future. An insider said: “It’s going to be the funniest episode of the new series”. The episode will apparently be titled; “The Lodger”, and will air in Spring on BBC One and BBC HD.

Earlier this year Blue Peter held a competition for a fan to design a new Tardis using household items, and the Doctor was filmed collecting junk for this episode, so perhaps he will use that junk to try make a new Tardis?
