Behind the scenes

 * Prior to this announcement, there were reports circulating that the character of Amy Pond would be an alien and that the actress would be covered in prosthetic makeup. In fact, this was simply a joke blog entry posted by the Doctor Who Information Network, based in Canada.


 * Details about Amy's character and background have yet to be revealed. Photographs published in the media during filming of the character's first episode show her wearing some form of police uniform (whether this is an actual police uniform or a costume is unknown).


 * It is rumoured that Karen Gillan will use her native Inverness accent for Amy.


 * The first official preview of Series 5 issued by the BBC shows Amy chasing after the Doctor wearing the police uniform described above. There is also a quick shot that appears to show Amy kissing the Doctor.


 * Amy is the second consecutive TV companion to have red hair. This fact was noted by the BBC when it issued a statement in response to the so-called 'Ginger controversy' that erupted in early January 2010 due to misinterpretation of a statement made by the Eleventh Doctor after his regeneration.


 * Amy Pond is the second character with an aquatic-sounding name to be created by showrunner Steven Moffat following River Song.
