Diana Rigg and daughter Rachael Stirling to star in Doctor Who
Diana Rigg appeared in more than 50 episodes of The Avengers from 1965-68 Continue reading the main story
It is the first time the pair have worked together on screen.
The actresses will play "a mother and daughter with a dark secret" alongside Matt Smith, as the Doctor, and new companion Jenna-Louise Coleman.
Filming began this week at Roath Lock Studios in Cardiff.
Dame Diana Rigg, who played Emma Peel in The Avengers in the 1960s, will play "a Yorkshire local".
'Madness' she said: "The first time Rachie and I will be working together is on an episode of Doctor Who specially written for us by Mark Gatiss. How lucky is that?"
Rachael Stirling as Nan Astley in Tipping the Velvet (2002) Rachael Stirling said she was "looking forward to the madness of Doctor Who enormously".
"Mark Gatiss has written a gift of a script and an on-screen relationship between Ma and I that is truly delicious.
"We have never before worked together because the offers have not been tempting, but when such a funny and original script comes through you know the time has come."
Stirling's TV work includes Women In Love and Tipping the Velvet.
Doctor Who's executive producer Steven Moffat said: "Dame Diana Rigg, Rachael Stirling and a Mark Gatiss script - a combination of talents you could only get in Doctor Who! Frankly, I'm terrified already!"
2013 will be the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in November 1963.

Mary Tamm, who played the Doctor's companion Romana alongside Tom Baker, died at her home in south London after losing her 18 month fight against the disease.
Tributes were paid to the "truly beautiful" actress for her "sheer talent" and ''zest for life''.
Social networking sites were also full of praise after the Doctor Who official site posted its "great sadness" at the news on Thursday.
The actress, born in Bradford, West Yorks, to poor Estonian refugees, had a long career on stage and screen after not starting to learn English until she went to primary school.
As well as Doctor Who, she starred in films The Odessa File and The Likely Lads and had recurring roles in soaps Brookside and EastEnders.
Her family, including husband Marcus Ringrose, daughter Lauren and seven-year-old grandson Max, paid tribute to the actress.
Mr Ringrose said: "Mary was truly beautiful in every way. She was a very spiritual lady who loved nature and adored all animals.
"On set and offstage, her earthy northern humour and self-deprecating wit brightened every occasion. She was a consummate actress, and immensely popular in the profession.
"Mary was born in Bradford, the daughter of impoverished refugees, and through sheer talent and hard graft, got herself to Rada, starred opposite Jon Voight in The Odessa File, and found a form of immortality as the Time Lady Romana opposite Tom Baker in Doctor Who.
"We will miss her every day." Barry Langford, her agent of 22 years, paid tribute to one of his "closest friends".
He said: "She had a great zest for life. "She was a fantastic actress - she played stage parts of such range, parts that would take your breath away.
"She could play any role, and do so wonderfully."
Actress Helen Lederer, a friend of Tamm's, said: "Mary was such an energised, talented woman with a great twinkle in her eye and she was so very beautiful."
Colin Baker, the actor who played the sixth Doctor, wrote on Twitter: "Shell-shocked to hear Mary Tamm is gone. A funny, caring, talented, lovely and down to earth lady. My heart goes out to Marcus and Lauren."

AN ADVENTURE IN SPACE AND TIME TO MARK THE DOCTOR’S 50th BIRTHDAY
The BBC today announces that a special BBC TWO drama has been commissioned to mark the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who next year.
An Adventure in Space and Time will tell the story of the genesis of Doctor Who since its first broadcast on 23 November 1963. Exploring all aspects of the longest running science fiction series to date, the special one off 90 minute drama will also look at the many personalities involved in bringing the series to life.
Written by Mark Gatiss, it is Executive Produced by current Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat and Caroline Skinner. The single drama was commissioned by Ben Stephenson Controller, Drama and Janice Hadlow, Controller of BBC TWO.
Mark Gatiss, Writer, said:
"This is the story of how an unlikely set of brilliant people created a true Television original. And how an actor - William Hartnell - stereotyped in hard-man roles became a hero to millions of children. I've wanted to tell this story this for more years than I can remember! To make it happen for 'Doctor Who's 50th birthday is quite simply a dream come true".
Steven Moffat, Executive Producer, said:
“The story of Doctor Who is the story of television - so it's fitting in the anniversary year that we make our most important journey back in time to see how the TARDIS was launched.”
The production and transmission schedule will be confirmed next year, along with casting.
