Episode 1: Smith and Jones
Written by Russell T. Davies
This episode will introduce us to the Doctor's new companion, Martha Jones, and will take place mostly in a hospital that has been transported to the moon. Also features a new race of aliens called the Judoon, who look massive.
Episode 2: The Shakespeare Code
Written by Gareth Roberts
Reputed to be the most expensive single episode of Doctor Who ever made, this episode (as you might guess from the title) is set in Elizabethan England and features Shakespeare himself as a supporting character. This is also the first episode of Doctor Who to be written by Gareth Roberts, a popular author of several Doctor Who novels throughout the late 90s.
Written by Russell T. Davies
This episode sees the Doctor return to New Earth (last seen at the beginning of Series 2) and will feature another appearance of the Face of Boe, who has something important to tell the Doctor.
Episode 4: Daleks in Manhattan
Written by Helen Raynor
1930s New York. I'm pretty sure this one features some on-location filming in the Big Apple, and is said to involve 'art deco' Daleks. These are the first Doctor Who scripts to be written by Helen Raynor, who worked as script editor on the first two series.
Episode 5
Written by Helen Raynor
Part 2 of 'Daleks in Manhattan'.
Episode 6: The Lazarus Experiment
Written by Stephen Greenhorn
League of Gentleman star and Doctor Who writer Mark Gatiss makes his first appearance in front of the camera for the show in this episode about immortality. Stephen Greenhorn has written television drama in the U.K. for the last ten years, this is his first script for Doctor Who.
Episode 7: 42
Written by Chris Chibnall
Life on Mars and Torchwood writer Chris Chibnall pens his first Doctor Who episode with '42'. Rumoured to be an episode played out in real-time, ala '24'.
Episode 8: Human Nature
Written by Paul Cornell
Previous episodes of the new Doctor Who series have drawn upon previously released Doctor Who audioplays for inspiration. This episode marks the first instance of an episode being based on an original Doctor Who novel. The novel in question was one of the more popular books from the 'New Adventures' series, where the Doctor renounced his Time Lord biology and became a human (think 'Superman 2') in early 20th century England.
Episode 9: Family of Blood
Written by Paul Cornell
The second part of 'Human Nature'. The 'Family of Blood' of the title probably refers to the alien family involved in the story, though it should be said that in this respect the episodes might differ from the book they're based on.
Episode 10: Blink
Written by Steven Moffat
Moffat previously wrote 'Press Gang', 'Coupling' and the popular Doctor Who episodes 'Girl in the Fireplace' and 'The Empty Child'. It's most likely that this episode will feature the Doctor only minimally, or not at all, like last year's 'Love and Monsters'.
Episode 11: Utopia
Written by Russell T. Davies
Captain Jack Harkness returns to Doctor Who! Also features Sir Derek Jacobi as a character called The Professor. This episode is rumoured to dovetail into the final two-part story of the season.
Episode 12: The Sound of Drums
Written by Russell T. Davies
Also features Captain Jack. If the formula for the last two series of Doctor Who are anything to go by, then it looks like we might be up for another big war (and the title, 'The Sound of Drums' implies such a thing too). A few small clues in Series 2 and the recent Christmas episode point towards Series 3's story arc involving someone or something called Saxon, possibly the Prime Minister who follows on from Harriet Jones.
Episode 13
Written by Russell T. Davies
The big finale! The show has been working up to this since it started in 2005. Will we get a clean start for Series 4? Or will more ongoing elements be introduced?
Only time will tell.

Another Doctor Who Fan!
I have written some borderline Dr. Who Fic
In one of my Sassy Gate parodies I had the Grrrls save the last "Dawllawk" and sool said being onto certain writers for another SciFi program!
Yes it is indeed a shame Torchwood was NOT bought by the ABC since the commercial channels will ...no the pain the pain I dont even want to think about what they'll do!
