Russell T Davies, the mastermind behind Doctor Who, has given fans a thrilling update on a new spin-off series of the popular sci-fi programme.
The War Between the Land and the Sea was officially unveiled at Comic Con last month after being the subject of intense speculation for some time.

He posted a snapshot on Instagram showing the top section of the script, along with a sign bearing his name and other cast and crew members in the background.
In an excited post, Russell wrote: "Day One. The war begins. Readthrough day for all 5 episodes f THE WAR BETWEEN THE LAND AND THE SEA.
"So much excitement. What a cast! Thrills, deaths, chases, fish and seven seas of danger. @bbcdoctorwho @disneydoctorwho @bbciplayer. "
