"(DOCTOR WHO THEME)" "It's 2nd of February today and we've started on episode 11 now." "So we're into the final push to the end of the series now." "Just 11, 12 and 13 to go." "John Barrowman's back." "Captain Jack is here." "Derek Jacobi's here." "And we're in a disused glass factory, which we've used before, actually, not far from Cardiff city centre, really." "Graeme Harper's still directing, and it's a really good script." "I think this is one of my favourites so far." "This is the sign on my trailer to commemorate the return of Captain Jack." "He doesn't seem to have anything on his." "BARROWMAN:" "Lewis!" "I have a rogue dog." " I was just catching that." " Go on." " He knows where he's supposed to be." " And we have another one in there." " Hello." " That's Tegan." "Jovanka?" " You know who Tegan is?" " Yeah." "BARROWMAN:" "Hi, Teegs!" " Hello." " Otherwise known as Tiger." "So it's a bit of a menagerie in your trailer." " It is, actually." " Yeah." " Would you like to see?" " Yeah." "Let's go in Captain Jack's trailer." "Come on in." "It's messy." " Lots of doggie treats on the table." " Yeah." " And then this is my breakfast." " Sure!" "Nice." "Cracklin' Oat Bran, which I'll have at our next break 'cause it's too early to eat for me." "Oh, you're serious." "I thought that was dog food." "No, no, that's me." "That's mine." "Well, some people might call me the dog, but that's the dog treats." "What else?" "That's it." " And then I've got my coffee machine." " Coffee maker." "I've got a flat-screen TV in there just laying on the bed because that TV..." "You won't be able to see it very well, but everybody's slightly a hue of blue." "They are slightly, yeah." "Oh, you can just about get that." "A hue of blue and green." "And then this is my..." " My exercise ball." " Okay." "That's for the scenes in the T-shirt, right?" "We're now gonna see what John's going to have on his trailer." " Because you're Captain Jock." " Yeah." "Oh, no, Steph, it's not gonna stick." "Hey, Lewis!" "It's exciting the dogs, whatever it is." "Oh, hang on." "The exposure's gone funny." " Is it?" " There we go." "Nice." "He's Captain Jock, I'm Dr Poo." "TENNANT:" "Nothing if not mature and civilised." "This is us arriving on set to start another day at the coal face." "Graeme Harper." "Like a coiled spring for the day ahead." "John Barrowman." "It's the first time he's read the script." "Doesn't know what's going on." "Oh, look, I'm reading the wrong page." "He's learning the list of supporting artists for the day." "That's not gonna help." "Well, I don't know what I'm supposed to say, but I know everybody's name." "Roger Pearce is a very posh camera operator." "He does lots of very big films." "James Bond, Casino Royale, he did." "And in between, he comes and slums it with us." "This is actually a shot from a scene we've already done." "This is just the low shot when we nearly fall into the rocket silo, the rocket shaft." "We filmed the rest of the scene yesterday." "So it's a special low-angle lens, film buffs." "The camera's got a sort of mirror thing on the end so that they can shoot from very low down." " Is that right, Steve?" " It's a prism." " It's a what?" " Prism." " It's a prism." " Yeah, it's a prison." "You're not allowed out of the prison." " In the hot silo." " Yeah." "Hot." "Might be a little bit of a breath issue this morning." " There's Freema." " Hi." " Poised?" " Yeah." " Coiled spring?" "Ready for action?" " I..." "I did that bowl of water thing last night that you were telling me about." "And I turned the heating off because of global warming." "Yes." "Freema's been destroying the planet, but she's changing her ways." "This is a really lively energy scene." "Here we go." "And action!" "JACK:" "I've got you." "DOCTOR:" "Thanks." "How did you cope without me?" "Now that is what I call a rocket." "Action!" "Action!" "Slightly did a bit of..." "When I came up to you." "Did you see that?" "It's February, and the end of the shoot is approaching, really." "But just in case we were feeling complacent, it's the middle of the night and we're in a quarry." "This is where the Doctor Who team will be spending Valentine's night, 2007." "It." "S about 6:00 now, in the evening, but we'll still here at 4:30 tomorrow morning." "And it's actually not too bad just now." "It was raining, but it's gone off, and it's not too cold." "It was snowing last week, but the gods seem to be looking on us favourably at the moment." "I suppose it's traditional that Doctor Who should film in a quarry." "There's something sort of right and proper about it." "We're close to the silo." "If we get to the silo, then we're safe." " Silo?" " MARTHA:" "Silo for me." "This scene is just after we've landed on Malcassairo and all the Futurekind are chasing Padra." "Yeah, here we go." "Through the night, in a quarry, with Doctor Who." "And action." "There's a Futurekind having a cup of tea." "It's not every day you see that." "This is Phil and Lowri wearing their fluore jackets and hard hats, which everyone in the quarry has to wear, except for the actors." "Because if we wore them, obviously, that would be a slight continuity glitch." "Which does mean that we can be hit by bits of falling masonry, but the rest of the crew can't." "Quite right, too." "This is the car we're about to get in to be driven 50 yards." "This is why global warming is happening, ladies and gentlemen." " Gareth." " Mr Tennant." "Why are you driving us 50 metres?" "Can't we walk?" "No." "You'll be pleasantly surprised." "It's a big, big hill." " Oh, really?" " Big hill." "You'll be happy now." "Have we got some four-wheel drive action coming up?" " BARROWMAN:" "Oh, yeah!" " There's a few puddles also." " I'd better film this out the front, eh?" " For this big puddle, yeah." "BARROWMAN:" "Yeah, hang out the front, David." "That's it?" "That was it?" " That was it." " That was our whole journey?" " The good news is..." " Yes?" "...we're gonna start you right up top, round the corner." "TENNANT:" "Oh." "BARROWMAN:" "What's the bad news?" " That was it." "There wasn't any bad news." " That's all right, then." "There's just good news." "So we'll drive you up there." "The only thing I wanted to show you, John, was where I need you to deliver your line." " BARROWMAN:" "Yeah." " Which is opposite this bush here." "Okay." " Yeah?" " No problem." "And if you do favour the..." "You're on the right slightly, John, yes?" " I didn't hear that." "What?" " Hang on." "So face the left, please, as you come down." " Camera left or my left?" " Your left of the path." " Okay." "Question for you." "Just..." " Okay." " Your right." " My right?" " Your right." " Camera left." "Okay, let's go." "We'll get you up there." "Do a half-speed run down, just to make sure of your footing and everything else." "We'll do one rehearsal and then, if we're good, we'll do it full pelt." "Can you just check and make sure if it's," ""Gosh, I missed this" or, "God, I missed this"?" " 'Cause it's not in the script." " Checking now, mate." "Hang on." " I don't think it's "God" because..." " TENNANT:" "It's neither God nor gosh." ""Oh, matron, I've missed this."" "BARROWMAN: "Oh, matron, I've..." Hang on." ""Oh, matron, I've missed this."" "So, John, as you're coming down, as I'm looking," "I want you slightly to the left, camera left." "MAN:" "To your right." " No problem." " Thank you." "MAN:" "He won't confuse us at all." " BARROWMAN:" "What?" " What?" ""Gosh, I've missed this." And the other..." "BARROWMAN:" "May I just say how stupid you both look in those outfits?" "Thank you very much." "All right, Gareth." "Away we go." "I'd love you to overtake Martha on this." " AGYEMAN:" "Oh, he will." " I guarantee you I will." "That will help you..." "I'm gonna do "Freema can't keep up with the boys" acting, and I love it." "How much direction can we get to run?" " Yeah." "Run down a hill." " Running down a hill." "Running down a hill for the hard of thinking." "Now, this is four-wheel action." "This is bumping and driving." "You can't see a thing 'cause there's a big light shining in the camera, but it's very exciting." "I promise you, it's very exciting." " Are you ready?" " Rehearsing." "And action." "Oh, I've missed this!" "(CALLING OUT INSTRUCTIONS)" " What have we got there?" " And cut." "Thank you." "It's my last week on set, actually." "And to begin that last week, I'm about to go into prosthetics to be made up to look 150," "which is always fun." "We did do it a couple of times last week, which has resulted in some fairly appalling..." "A very appalling skin breakout up here and very dry skin down here." "I've got terrible combination skin." "Well, I didn't have until I started doing this, but I do now." "So, anyway, it's the last time we have to do this today, which, in some ways, is a relief, but it is a fantastic thing that these Millennium effects prosthetic artistes do." "So, two hours and 20 minutes is all it took this morning." "I am now transformed into this old git." "The hands are, too." "See?" "A few liver spots." "And that's it." "It is a pretty sensational bit of work from Neill and Anthony there." "And we've done some really extraordinary close-ups for the episodes, and you really can't see the join." "It is kind of extraordinary." "It is tempting to go down the shops in it, to wander around ASDA and see how people treat you as an old man." "That's a Channel 4 documentary right there, isn't it?" "But, sadly, that hasn't been possible thus far." "But, no, it's a real treat to get to try this out." "Look at that neck." "We're on set now." " Thank you." " Thanks, Lowri." " Hello." " Oh, hello." "There's the team." "This is the Valiant." "Oh, yes, check it out." "One of the biggest sets we've had yet, I think." "There's Colin." "Oh, and there's Doctor Who Confidential, behind the scenes, filming behind the scenes." "Look at that." "There's a big lump of green screen." "I don't know what that's about." "Here's director Colin Teague to explain what happens next." "What's gonna happen is lovely David, older David, David's granddad..." "Yeah." "...who's standing in as the elder David, is gonna be here, and this lovely illuminated light all around him as he gets younger and younger." "Standing in front of that green screen?" "Standing in front of the green screen, yeah." "Pete's been sent to save our sins, look." "I have no idea why we've got a glitter ball on set." "Perhaps the Valiant doubles up on a Friday night as a '70s disco." "Action!" "I've had a whole year to tune myself into the psychic network and integrate with its matrices." "MASTER:" "I said stop it!" "Of course, what nobody knows is this is actually what David Tennant looks like before make-up." "It takes two hours to turn him into that handsome young Scottish man." "So, rather than create a full-blown prosthetic, we simply persuaded Dave to appear without make-up, and this is the results." "Hi, Alex." " Hey, how are you?" " Good." "Yeah?" "You look great today." " How's your black eye?" " Oh, good, thanks." " It's recovered a bit." " It's healing quite nicely." " Yeah." " Yeah." "Oh, well." "Whatever turns you on, babe." "The way you're looking." "I keep forgetting I look like this, of course." " Hello." " How's the cold?" "It's all right." "It's been doctored by loads of Lemsips." " Yeah." "Good." " Yeah." "I'm like..." "Stay in theatre." "That's what it is." " Dr Footlights is keeping you going." " Oh, yeah." "So I'm back to normal, my baby-face complexion once again." "But I'm up on wires today because I'm being infected by the psychic energy of the human race and I have to rise off the ground and hover over John Simm." "No!" "I'm sorry." "I'm so sorry." "So I've got a harness on underneath my trousers, which makes me look like I'm wearing a nappy." "Very attractive." "And I've got various wires poking through various bits of my costume." "And I'm getting hoisted up across the set, which isn't the most comfortable thing in the world, it has to be said." "But hoping it's not going to be too many takes on this one." "However, it's all good and it's quite nice not to have spent three hours in prosthetics first thing this morning." "I'm still picking glue off my hands particularly." "They're still covered in bits of stuff from yesterday." "No matter how much adhesive remover I slosh all over them," "I can't quite seem to shift it, so I think I'm gonna have that for a couple of days." "But, yeah, it's nice to be myself again." "Although, because it's Doctor Who, it's not returning to a nice quiet little scene around a kitchen table, it's returning to floating through the air in a ball of psychic energy." "Well, it wouldn't be the same otherwise, would it?" "That's why we love it." " And you know what happens now." " No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "I forgive you." "So, it's the end of the day, Wednesday, 7th of March." "We've just finished a day's filming on the Valiant with the Master dying and Lucy shooting him and all that malarkey." "We've done that and now a lot of the crew and the rest of the cast are all being sent home, and we're about to gather in semi-secret in the Tardis to film the cliff-hanger for the very end of the series" "after Martha's left and the Titanic smashes through the wall." "Or course, that'll be a CGI creation later, but we're about to film the stuff that goes around that." "I'm not quite sure how many crew are gonna still be here." "We're not doing it under quite the levels of secrecy that we filmed Catherine Tate appearing last year." "The thinking seems to be that if you try to keep something a secret too hard, it tends to leak out, even though we did keep Catherine a secret." "Everything else that we try and keep a secret seems to end up in the tabloids." "So we're kind of hoping that if we just do this and don't draw too much attention to it, that maybe we'll get away with it and nobody will be expecting it come episode 13." "So I think we're just waiting for the studio to thin out a bit and then we're all stealing in there." "And we're gonna knock that off now." "Not at all." "So I'll be standing here and then, when this thing comes through the wall, these two big tubes" "are going to fire a load of debris and compressed air at me." "So all that stuff is going in those big canons." "I've got an armadillo shell on my back now." "So, I think the lifeboat is there." "Okay, here we go." "And action." "Quiet." "We're ready to take." "Mark it." "Okay, here we go." "Set, and three, two, one, action!" "What?" "What?" "Okay, we're going up to his face now." "Say the line." "What?" "This is it." "We're filming the scenes from episode 12 in the abandoned warehouse with Captain Jack and Martha, and then I'll be home to London tomorrow." "Bit of an impressive light show today, Clive." " It certainly is." " How many are there?" "Twenty-two." "Wow!" "Have you been here for days putting these up?" "Years, actually." " Hello, David." " JT, how are you?" " I'm very well." " What have you got for me?" "One of these." "Same old 20-40." "Number two today, not number one, unfortunately." " Oh, well." "That's all right." " Let's do it." "Mike pack." "This goes in the back pocket." "The main microphone is in the tie, and the wind gag is being removed now." "Secretly placed." " Last day, John?" " Last day." "It's the last day for Jack on Who series three, yeah." "And also the last day for John Barrowman in his 30s." "That's true, David." "No, it is." "It's something to celebrate." "That's a good thing." "No, at midnight tonight." "I will be 40." "Don't feel it." "Hope I don't look it, and I don't act it, I know that." "This is how interested our co-star is in us." "BARROWMAN:" "Watch this, watch this." " Freema?" " Yes?" " Louis Vuitton." " What?" "What?" "Where?" "Where is it?" "Get me some." "Oh, dear." "Yes." "This is John's birthday cake." "Did you guys get any?" "Did you all get some?" "Cheers." "And this is for you, David, as well." " We're gonna miss you so much." " I'm not 40 yet." "Thank you very much, Tracie." "It's a real way of life, doing this job, and it's such a great bunch of people." "It's such a great crew." "Such enthusiasm and love for what they're doing, under some quite difficult circumstances sometimes." "I'm very proud of it." "I'm very proud of this show and everyone who works on it." "I'm immensely proud to be part of it." "I can't believe how quickly this has gone." "It's hurtled through, it really has." "Okay, ladies and gentlemen, you'll all be very sorry to hear that that's a golden wrap on Mr John Barrowman and Mr David Tennant." "Well, it's been fun." "It's sad to finish, actually." "Even though I could do with a rest and I'm tired and it's been a long, cold haul," "but it's fun, you know." "It's not bad work, really." "See you." "See you." "It's strange." "I'm feeling quite sentimental." "It's obviously time for a break." "So that's it." "It's now 19th of March, 2007, and it's all over." "Fourteen episodes in the can, and I'm back home in London." "I wasn't even there for the last few days of filming." "The last stuff they did was all Freema's bits for episode 13." "So, that was a bit odd, to miss the final furlong." "But it's nice to be back home, although, because I've been away for months, of course, the flat is in disrepair." "The Internet's gone down and the washing machine's broken and the boiler isn't working." "But it's nice to be home all the same." "It is all-consuming, this job." "I think all of us on it are aware that we can't work at this pace forever." "But it's a very particular time, one to be enjoyed and relished." "But you also have to know when to stop, I think, or it will kill you." "I still feel very lucky to be doing this job." "It still feels like a privilege and a right laugh." "And I'm very proud of the episodes we've seen so far, too." "He genuinely is bigger and better than before, and I never thought that would be possible." "Heady days." "See you next year."
