Story Arc
That there now being three Peter Capaldis in the Whoniverse, Russell T  has made a theory. He's emailed it to the Moff and I suspect it will be the story arc. I also have a thought that Galifrey and the events of The Name Of The Doctor has something to do with it as well.

Producers
Nikki Wilson and Peter Bennet will be producers while the Moff and Brian Minchin will be executive producers.

Writers
The Moff, Phil Ford, Mark Gatiss, Neil Cross, Gareth Roberts and Jack Lothian will be writing while Neil Gaiman and Frank Cottrell Boyce are developing scripts for the future.

Directors
Ben Wheatley, Paul Murphey and Douglas Mackinnion will be directing the first group of six episodes (It will be a thirteen episode season  but production wise, they're chopped into two groups).
