13 Things You Didn't Know About Doctor Who

The new series of Doctor Who is fast approaching, with hour-long première The Eleventh Hour due to air here in the UK tonight at 6.20pm. Below are just 13 trivial facts of note for fans regarding "Series 5":

1. Though it's technically Series 5 of the revamp, this season of Who is being promoted as Series 1, possibly as it's the start of a new era
2. After tonight's episode, you will never look at cracks in the wall the same way again!
3. Expect a new theme tune, title sequence, TARDIS (see picture) and even a flashback to all 10 previous Doctors tonight
4. In The Beast Below, someone who "knows the Doctor of old" will come to Matt Smith's incarnation and try to help him solve the mystery of Starship UK
5. Adding to this is the fact that the Doctor and Amy are summoned to Wartime London in Victory of the Daleks by an "old friend" of the Time Lord's
6. In the first two-parter of the series, we'll see River Song and the Weeping Angels, the former perhaps already having met a later version of the Doc, and the latter having powers which make people not safe if they simply don't blink
7. We then head to Venice, with the Doc, Amy and her boyfriend Rory- sparks will fly!
8. A 5 year time-gap will have passed between the Venice episode and Amy's Choice, where Amy must decide between her pregnancy and the Doctor
