BBC To Release "Brian and the Ponds" Follow Up Video Tomorrow


We've all wondered about Brian Williams - did he ever find out what happened to Amy and Rory?  Well, a special scene was written by Chris Chibnall which revealed some of the answers - unfortunately, the scene was never filmed.  However, the BBC, using animated storyboards and a voiceover by Arthur Darvill, will release the scene tomorrow.  The BBC Doctor Who Blog have said:

Rory’s dad, Brian Williams, only appeared in two episodes but swiftly established himself as a favourite amongst Doctor Who’s audience. After Amy and Rory’s heart-breaking departure in The Angels Take Manhattan we received many emails asking what happened next to Brian. Did he ever find out what took his son and daughter-in-law? If so, how? And would Brian – and viewers - ever learn more about Amy and Rory’s life after the Doctor? 
A special scene was written by Chris Chibnall that revealed some of the answers but sadly, the sequence was never shot. However, we’re happy to announce that we’ll be bringing you the scene tomorrow. Using animated storyboards and a voice-over specially recorded by Arthur Darvill, we’ll discover more about Brian and the Ponds, post-Angels. 
It begins with Brian alone, doing what he once told the Doctor must be done – watering the plants. But his life is about to change forever… 
Doctor Who’s Executive Producer, Caro Skinner, said, ‘We’re delighted we can present this lovely scene written by Chris Chibnall. People took Rory’s dad, Brian, to their hearts very quickly, so it’s fitting we can give the character a degree of closure in this poignant piece.’ 
P.S. is a short video written by Chris Chibnall and will be essential viewing for anyone who wants to know more about what happened to Brian, Amy and Rory. 
It will be on the BBC site tomorrow.
