Doctor Who Blip — Churchill Spotted on Set

Doctor Who Filming has, as always, kept a keen eye on filming, gratuitously updating everyone on all the latest sightings. Only today, however, he spotted a rather unusual figure amongst UNIT-like guards whom we last saw in the opening sequence of "Time of Angels".
The DW crew are busy filming at Cardiff City Hall today, with reports of soldiers with black shiny uniforms and berets on set (not UNIT). Another old 'friend' of the Doctor seems to be back too, but to avoid an immediate spoiler read it backwards to find out: llihcruhc
In case you can't read, that does indeed spell "Churchill", played by Ian McNeice in "Victory of the Daleks" and "The Pandorica Opens". No pictures have emerged as of yet, but it's likely the same actor. His role in the previous finale might have been ostensibly important, though fans of McNeice are certainly hoping to see more from this compelling actor.

Thanks to A Relative Dimension in Space for pointing this out to us.
