Sometimes – not a lot of the time, but sometimes – you’ve just gotta love Facebook… 

Thanks to the BBC America page, we have a look at a brand new robotic monster from Doctor Who series 9!  It looks to be a large metallic creature covered in rivets, and from the look of it it seems to have been perhaps submerged in water for a long time as its begun to rust.  And is that a weapon strapped to one of its arms?

It’s rumoured that this will be the big bad in the opening two parter The Magicians Apprentice and The Witch’s Familiar.

Doctor Who returns to BBC 1 later in the year.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
