Does anyone know where they advertise for Doctor Who Auditions?

Question

I really want to know if they're having a new companion or not so I want to monitor the website, newspaper etc that they advertise in.

Answer 1

When they hire guest stars and other performers they send a character list to the area acting agencies to see which of their clients want to audition for it.

Answer 2

If it's advertised anywhere, it would most likely be The Stage (www.thestage.co.uk) but I would be very, very surprised if they hold open auditions - most likely it will be done through agents.  I know that for a lot of the guest roles they have a person in mind when they write it (Sophia Myles didn't audition for Reinette, they asked her to do it) but for a companion I would think they'll decide what sort of person they want and send the info to agents who will submit any appropriate actors they have on their books.
