Filming location for the first of the DW Specials....



Drum roll please....

DUBAI?!? Well, at least it'll be warm!

My original guess was Tunisia, just for the record.

And also - about midway though the article: (See also the plans to film another of the specials in America.)
OH PLEASE!!!

Dubai... that's... interesting.

Hopefully they won't be filming there in the summer. Also, they'd better give them a run down of what drugs you can and can't bring into that country. Even poppy seeds will land you in jail.

Personally, I'd rather go to Tunisia. That would have made the Star Wars geek in me neurotic with happiness. :)

No, they'll be filming there this month. Possibly starting on Monday. And yeah, if RTD is going along on this one, he'd better be damned careful.

And no kidding! Why not Tunisia? Why?!? *geeks out with you*

Just bumping into this conversation - sorry!

The Who crew will be in Swansea on Monday, so they won't be going abroad for at least a few weeks, I think. Also, in regards to DT... if his medical doctors say he can't go on a plane then he won't - there's a chance he might drive there (very unlikely) but it is possible, I guess.

I really hope it isn't Dubai - if so, a very poor choice.

It's not that he can't do a long flight, it just won't be the most comfortable thing. Driving for that length of time would be worse.

And yeah, Dubai. *shakes head*
