Filming of the new series of Doctor Who has brought the centre of Warwick to a standstill this week as the town was transformed into Elizabethan London.
David Tennant and new side-kick Freema Agyeman spent two nights filming at the Lord Leycester Hospital which doubles as Shakespeare's Globe Theatre.
In the episode the Doctor will meet Shakespeare but chief writer Russell T Davies is tightlipped about the plot.
BBC bosses had hoped to film scenes for the new series of Doctor Who at London's Globe Theatre but the area around it wasn't historic enough.
Gerald Lesinksi of Warwick's Lord Leychester Hospital which doubles as Shakespeare's Globe, said: "Last year the BBC filmed scenes for Elizabeth: The Virgin Queen.
"The Doctor Who location manager fell in love with the place. Filming was done at night to avoid traffic noise."
