While the new season of BBC’s ‘Doctor Who’ airing next year, speculations about the long-running series have already made their rounds online, suggesting various details about upcoming installment.

One of the latest ‘Doctor Who’ season 10 spoilers have been drawn out from the fact that the cast were spotted at a famous British location, hinting at the possible plot of the new season.

The ‘Doctor Who’ cast and crew members were reportedly seen in Bristol, particularly in a location famous for festivities and special parties. Fans who spotted the production team have speculated that a certain kind of celebration will be carried out in ‘Doctor Who’ season 10.

The Kings Weston House is the venue where the cast members were spotted and, although the structure is primeval, it boasts a grand and magnificent environment with expansive grounds.

Peter Capaldi, who is known for his role as the present Doctor in the science-fiction series, was seen filming with actress Pearl Mackie, who will play the Doctor’s new companion, Bill. An image of the duo was shared on Instagram with the ‘Doctor Who’ handle, captioned with “Just met Peter Capaldi and Pearl Mackie on the set of Doctor Who!”

When the new season begins, fans will meet Mackie’s character who has been described by Capaldi as described as "a fine, fine actress with a wonderful zest and charm" and a "refreshing addition to the TARDIS.

Based on rumors, there could be a wedding party that will be celebrated in an upcoming episode due to the fact that the Kings Weston House is a popular wedding location in Bristol.

Aside from a wedding, other fans are also suggesting that a special occasion, such as a Christmas party, could take place in such venue during the tenth season. According to Bristol locals who spotted the ‘Doctor Who’ cast and crew filming, the front part of the King Westons House had been covered with fake snow, thereby leading to speculations that a Christmas Eve celebration might take place.

In an interview with Doctor Who Magazine, head writer Steven Moffat debunks the rumors claiming that Bill crossed paths with the Doctor from the 1980s as suggested by her outfit — a Prince T-shirt and a denim jacket.

"She's from now, yeah. She's just wearing what young people are wearing now. I know that, because Pearl chose her outfit herself," Moffat explained.

Bill will also be featured in the ‘Doctor Who’ season 10 premiere and is expected to have a recurring role in the new installment. She has also been described as a daring character who throws questions that no one has ever asked about for the past years.

"Irreverence and cheek to ask all the questions you're not supposed to ask on 'Doctor Who'. 'How different is it having two hearts? Is one a back-up? Do you have very, very high blood pressure?'" Moffat added.

Before the ‘Doctor Who’ season 10 premiere airs in the spring of 2017, a ‘Doctor Who’ Christmas Special episode is expected to be released on Dec. 25 on BBC One.
