Series 9’s opener, The Magician’s Apprentice, will be screened three weeks ahead of its September TV premiere.

The Filmhouse Cinema are hosting the event as part of the Edinburgh International Television Festival on 27 August at 8.30pm.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A, with guests to be announced.

As expected the event is already sold out. However, rumours have suggested there may be further cinema screenings like with Deep Breath last year. As always, time will tell.
