Spoilers for the Doctor Who series nine finale, "Hell Bent." Well, that's a wrap on series nine of Doctor Who! Are you caught up? What did you think? "Hell Bent" saw the Doctor back on his home planet of Gallifrey and, after the events of "Heaven Sent," he wasn't in the best of moods. Banishing Rassilon was a start, but the Doctor really wanted to snatch Clara from the grip of death -- and he would go to any length to make that happen. Let's take a look behind-the-scenes on "Hell Bent": Maisie Williams returned as Ashildr/Me, and met the Doctor and Clara at the end of everything. The Doctor got a sweet new sonic screwdriver! (Although, I hope the sonic sunglasses don't disappear altogether.) And Jenna Coleman looked back on her time traveling with the Doctor. Farewell (?), Clara Oswald! So, series nine is one for the history books -- but the Doctor returns this Christmas! Here's a look at ...

*SPOILERS* for the Doctor Who episode "Face the Raven." It was announced several weeks ago that Jenna Coleman was ending her run on Doctor Who , and in last Saturday's episode, "Face the Raven," we bid an emotional farewell to Clara Oswald. Although we expected it, I doubt we were expecting the manner in which she would depart -- or the roles a returning Ashildr and Rigsy would play in her ultimate demise. Here are a few behind-the-scenes highlights from this episode: You were brave, Clara.... Truly. As we move into the future, let's take a look at what's next for the Doctor in the episode "Heaven Sent" : For more on Doctor Who, please visit  http://www.bbc.co.uk The Bearded Trio - The Site For Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and John Williams THE BEARDED TRIO ON FACEBOOK THE BEARDED TRIO ON TWITTER THE BEARDED TRIO ON GOOGLE+ THE BEARDED TRIO ON PINTEREST CLICK HERE FOR FACTS ON STEVEN SPIELBERG C...

Have you caught up with the third episode in the new series of Doctor Who , "Under the Lake?" What a perfect tale for October, with Halloween just a few weeks away -- a ghost story! Or, are they ghosts? The finale to this two-parter is coming this Saturday, so we'll probably find out for sure at that point. In the meantime, we'll take a look behind-the-scenes at this spooky entry with the latest installments of  Doctor Who Extra, followed by a preview for part two, "Before the Flood." How to make everyone feel as though they're underwater... How does one become a ghost? (aside from the obvious, of course) Fire in the hole! How great is Cass?! Okay, now we move on to part two, "Before the Flood." Here's an intro to the episode featuring Peter Capaldi, Steven Moffat, and Jenna Coleman. And here's the trailer...

It's been rumored for the last week or so, but today it's official -- Jenna Coleman confirmed she is leaving Doctor Who . She joined the series as companion Clara Oswald -- aka The Impossible Girl -- in 2012, during Matt Smith's tenure as the Eleventh Doctor, and is currently teamed up with Twelfth Doctor Peter Capaldi. However, her time in the TARDIS has come to an end as she has filmed her final scenes. Coleman said her exit has "been in the works for a long time" and she has already been cast as the Queen in the upcoming ITV series Victoria . On leaving the show, Coleman had this to say: "There's not a lot of jobs where you can go to work and have a spaceship and an alien as your best mate and also run away from monsters," she joked of her decision to leave. "It's been so much fun... I love it. It's such a unique beast." Jenna Coleman's final series begins with the premiere of Doctor Who on Saturday, September...

As announced at San Diego Comic-Con, Doctor Who will be joining the Lego Dimensions video game! According to GameSpot , here is what players can expect when the game becomes available on September 27: All of the Doctors will be playable in Lego form, even the War Doctor. When your character dies, you'll regenerate as the first Doctor then cycle through the series again. Depending on which Doctor you play as, the interior of your TARDIS will change -- playing as the first Doctor will give you an old-school, black-and-white time machine. A jukebox in the TARDIS will let you choose whichever version of the Dr. Who theme you want. Peter Capaldi (Dr. Who), Jenna Coleman (Clara Oswald), and Michelle Gomez (Missy) will also lend their voices to game.

  Possible Clara-related spoilers for those who have not watched the episode "Last Christmas." In the lead up to this year's Doctor Who Christmas special, there was quite a bit of speculation about whether or not Clara Oswald's time in the TARDIS would come to an end. It was already confirmed a few weeks back that Peter Capaldi would be returning for the next series, but Jenna Coleman's status was left unaddressed. Now that the Christmas special has aired, the matter has been settled. According to the BBC , Jenna Coleman will return for series 9 - and not just for a few episodes, but for the entire series. Here is what Coleman had to say about the decision to stay on as Clara: "It's wonderful," she said. "I get a whole other series of stories with the Doctor and I couldn't walk away with the story being unresolved." She added: "There is so much more to do. I think they've finally just reached a point where they real...
