Hey all! Sorry for the lack of updates, I’ve been a little bit behind (and admittedly, lazy) but now I’m catching up, particularly with the gallery!
It was lovely to see Karen appearing at the Cannes Film Festival, and even more lovely to see a new photoshoot as a result of this. I have added the shoot to the gallery, which is mostly in glorious HQ!
A few more on-set images from filming of Doctor Who have been added too, including some more MQ’s from New York and this delightful set too –

SCOTS star Karen Gillan will be able to keep an eye on Doctor Who after her last scene as his assistant … because she stole binoculars from the Tardis.
The 24-year-old admitted taking the memento from the set of the BBC’s most famous series when I spoke to her yesterday at the Cannes Film Festival.
She’s in the French resort to publicise her first movie, Not Another Happy Ending, which will begin shooting in Glasgow in July.
In her first interview since shooting her final Doctor Who scene as Amy Pond last Saturday, Karen admitted there were buckets of tears at the end.
Emotions were running high as Karen, Matt Smith, who plays the Doctor, and Arthur Darvill (Amy’s husband Rory) did their last scene.
Karen, who is staying tight-lipped about what happens to Amy, admitted: “It was a weird, serene day where everyone was feeling it.
“We don’t film in chronological order so the last shot we filmed was me, Matt and Arthur going into the Tardis.
“Then Matt closed the door for the last time and we were in darkness.
“We hugged and started crying. It was kind of tears of happiness.
“It was a feeling of ‘Look at what we’ve done’. It was lovely.”

Doctor Who star Karen Gillan has admitted that she would love to appear in Community.
The cult NBC comedy features a spoof of the BBC’s sci-fi drama, titled ‘Inspector Spacetime’.
“I’ve seen a lot of Community,” Gillan revealed in a BBC America interview. “I watched one of the episodes and got hooked and now I really, really love [the show].”
The actress added that she would love to appear in an episode, calling the ‘Inspector Spacetime’ scenes “kind of brilliant”.
“I love Inspector Spacetime, it’s so funny,” she said. “I wasn’t familiar with it until recently when my flat-mate said, ‘Do you realise there’s a Doctor Who spoof in a show over in the States?’”
Community was recently picked up for 13 more episodes by NBC.
In the UK, the series airs on Tuesdays at 10.30pm on Sony Entertainment Television. NBC recently confirmed that the show’s fourth season will move to a new Friday night slot in the US this fall.

Yes guys, that sad day came today – today was Karen’s final day of filming on Doctor Who, along with on-screen husband Arthur Darvill. Several Twitter accounts confirmed the news and tweeted about it, including Karen and Arthur themselves, Benjamin Cook and many more.
Whilst the end of another Doctor Who era has occurred, we wish Karen and Arthur the best of luck, as they move onto new projects, including Not Another Happy Ending for Karen!
Over the past few days, I’ve been adding HQ candids that we were missing from the gallery!

Over the next couple of days I’ll be adding the Series 6 Doctor Who images that are missing too.
Doctor Who’s seventh series will be screened for the first time at the Edinburgh International Television Festival 2012, when the Doctor will take on the Daleks once more.
The festival takes place from August 23 to August 25 and last year saw the premiere of series six episode Let’s Kill Hitler.The BBC has yet to confirm when the new series of the cult sci-fi drama will hit our screens, though it is likely to follow the festival in the autumn.
Doctor Who co-creator Steven Moffat will attend the annual event, appearing on a ‘Masterclass’ panel for his other series Sherlock, alongside the show’s other writers Mark Gatiss and Sue Vertue.
The Doctor’s sidekicks Amy (Karen Gillan) and Rory (Arthur Darvill) are set to leave the show midway through the next series, and Moffat promises there will not be a dry eye in the house.
He also revealed that he considers the companions to in fact be the central characters of the series, saying: ‘The story of Doctor Who is always the story of the companion, it’s always their story.
‘It was Rose Tyler’s story, it’s Amy Pond’s story – the story of the time they knew the Doctor and how that began; how it developed and how it ended.’

Who’s hot?: Scottish star Karen Gillan.
Karen Gillan, from Inverness, is Scotland’s sexiest woman according to a poll by FHM Magazine. The ‘official’ ranking of the hottest women on the planet sees Karen at number 36.
The list is topped by X Factor judge Tulisa with former X Factor judge Cheryl Cole in second place.
But Karen, who is due to bow out of her role as Amy Pond in the Doctor Who series, has certainly got striking looks with long slender legs and red hair.
She has been nominated in the Scottish Fashion Awards for this year’s Scottish Fashion icon, up against Tali Lennox and Tilda Swinton.
Meantime, she has been filming the final scenes for her departure from Doctor Who along with her on-screen husband Rory Williams (Arthur Darvill).
Heiress Paris Hilton is just ahead of Karen and The Help actress Emma Stone is just behind her.
