Featuring Daleks, Weeping Angels and more the trailer borrows heavily from the new Doctor Who artwork – or maybe it’s the other way round! – but the trailer does offer a little more insight as to how Matthew Smith will play the 11th incarnation of the Time Lord.

Meanwhile, The Sun newspaper report comic actor James Corden is to make an appearance in the show but insiders have refused to let slip whether Corden – star of Gavin & Stacey – will play a friend or foe of the Doctor

More Doctor Who news, this time from STV and a real spoiler, so if you don’t want to know more then go play Farmville or something on Facebook…

STV are reporting that new Doctor Who Matthew Smith will battle a host of old enemies in a dramatic end-of-series finale. In the finale, the Doctor and assistant Amy Pond (Karen Gillian) will face off against Cybermen, Sontarans and Daleks.

A source told the Daily Star newspaper: “The producers wanted Matt to end his first season as the Time Lord with something explosive and exciting. And this fits the bill. It’s got all the right elements for a great finale and plenty of opportunities for cliffhangers, with fans not knowing who survives.”

River Song – played by Alex Kingston – also makes a reappearance in the new series which will be aired from April 2010 on BBC One.

In the image the duo are seen to be caught in a swirling vortex – not unlike the vortex seen in the old John Pertwee/Tom Baker credits – surrounded by some of the Time Lord’s most feared enemies, including Daleks, Weeping Angels and a Smiler.

The new trailer for the upcoming series featuring Smith as the eleventh Doctor will broadcast on Saturday on BBC One, and will also simulcast the official BBC Doctor Who website.

The new series is scheduled to air in April 2010 on BBC One.
