Bundles of wood, yes.
As advertised on TV by Timothy Dalton in his pre-Bond days!
After doing a quick Google search I discovered it was I who got the quote wrong. He actually did say "fag."
I feel so embarassed. Meh, it was a quote from an episode from nearly eleven years ago.
I'll just leave this here.

You know Doctor Who is having a slow news day when the most popular thread in the forum is discussing the difference between fags and faggots...
"Every time we think we're out, they pull us back in!"
Arthur Darvil and Karen Gillan have returned to the series for a second time since they left to do extra shooting for Episodes 4 & 5. (If you want to know which ones they are keep an eye out for shots were Amy suddenly starts sporting a long-haired wig.)

It's a television show, not G.I. Joe: Retribution. Sheesh...
Seriously, though, this may make more sense than it looks (even though it's spending days and money that are needed filming the rest of the season). We know that Moffat likes to seed his story arc throughout the seasons. We also know that, with this season, that Moffat is blowing deadlines and behind the eightball. It may be that Moffat has only now figured out how his overarching story arc will play out across multiple episodes, so he's having to write scenes for episodes that have already filmed to make the arc work.
And yes, I know that Moffat has said that the days of arcs are in the past. I also know that Moffat lies.
The slightly more prosaic reason I've heard is that the ever changing weather during the original shooting (without any handy 'Curse Of Fenric' style excuse to throw in) prompted the need for reshoots to make things match up.
And given that some of the scenes shot for Episode 4 seemed identical to ones shot first time round, it seems pretty reasonable.

I thought all Moffat said was that this season wouldn't have two parters. Nothing about arcs at all.
i presume you mean "GI Joe: Retaliation"?
Probably. I knew it was one word or the other, and I care so little I didn't check.

Retribution is what all the tie-in license holders wanted when the film got pushed back at the last minute.
lol, too right.
A quick S7 shooting update for y'all.
The Xmas Special script still isn't finished yet(!), so they've moved on to shoot Gatiss' second script for the year (featuring the return of several characters from the last series*). After that production goes on a break for Comic-Con and Promotional Work for the 1st half of S7 (which should begin on the 25th of August) and when they resume in late August the hope to finally have a finished Xmas script from Moffat to shoot.

I'm very happy about that spoiler. 
And if Gatiss' episode is anything like The Vesuvius Club (his first Lucifer Box novel), it could be brilliant!I'm very happy about that spoiler.
Also, Gatiss' episode will guest star Diana Rigg and her daughter, Rachael Stirling.
Given how little TV she does, that's pretty amazing news. (Her daughter's done some stuff for Big Finish in the past, though.)
Since Rachael was in Tipping the Velvet, I suppose it's too much to hope she'll be adding to the Vastra/Jenny mythos as a threesome...
Wow, that's pretty awesome news, too! I loved Rachel Stirling in Big Finish's The Oseidon Adventure with Tom Baker and Louisa Jameson.And if Gatiss' episode is anything like The Vesuvius Club (his first Lucifer Box novel), it could be brilliant!I'm very happy about that spoiler.
