The Magician's Apprentice: What We Know So Far (webcast)

The Magician's Apprentice: What We Know So Far was the third episode of Season 1 of The Fan Show, released on the Doctor Who YouTube Channel.
It featured no standalone Doctor Who skit as other episodes did; instead, the wholly documentary segments with Christel Dee as herself bled into a more fictionalised, satirical sequence of satirical fiction covering fan opinion on Game of Thrones actor Maisie Williams making the jump to Doctor Who in the style of a sports broadcast regarding a player changing teams. It saw a barely-costumed Christel Dee playing "Pete Lannister" and "Gendry Temple-Noble", two TV reporters, and also mentioned Davros and the Daleks as if they were real beings. Due to its overtly parodical nature and not being a standalone story, the skit is, of course, not considered a valid source on this Wiki.
== Main subject ==
Series 9 will begin with a two-parter, the first episode of which will be titled The Magician's Apprentice. For those brave enough to research spoilers, what information is available as of now?
== Other topics covered ==
* Maisie Williams's casting as an as-yet-unnamed character to appear later on in Series 9.
* The Fan Shows first Cosplayer of the Week, "Stand-Up Ryan from Columbia, Tennessee", who submitted a picture of his cosplay of Elton Pope and Ursula the Paving Slab.
== Behind the scenes ==
* The joke of referring to the Daleks as if they were a soccer team under the name of "Skaro Disunited" was later echoed by the The Daft Dimension comic strip in DWM 545, where the Daleks form a soccer team called "Skaro United", which competes with Mondas City in a game refereed by the Time Lords.
