Dr Who all go for an NZ-based episode?

This story about the Mama scriptwriter being based in New Zealand has this intriguing paragraph buried in its depths:
He is in line to write a New Zealand set episode after Sir Peter Jackson accepted an invitation to direct an episode from the show's lead Matt Smith issued in a Waikato Times interview.
The last we heard, Matt had answered an NZ journalist's question about filming in NZ with a 'Sure, why not', a journalist then broached the idea with PJ and he said he's a huge Dr Who fan and would love to do something like that, and Steven Moffat was heard making positive noises about PJ's interest. Now - if the journalist is right and isn't just stretching 'maybes' into a certainty - it looks like things might be moving in that direction.
*fingers crossed*

Sauron: "Mine's better."

Would they refer to the LotR movies, do you think? Another fun episode would resemble the one with Agatha Christie, only with the Doctor encountering the young Professor.

The Tardis in Middle Earth... that would be one crazy crossover! Ah well, a girl can dream...

as if the Tolkien estate isn't having enough of a fuss over Sir Peter's treatment of the material, what would a cross-over do? It so needs to happen. ;)

wrote and posted a very nice ME/Dr Who cross over a while back.

I'd trade out Star Wars for Star Trek - IDIC instead of the Force.

It would be fun if they did something similar with young Professor Tolkien. But then again, some kind of interaction with elves and hobbits in an alternative universe would also be great fun. Hmmm...maybe some combination of the two?

I'd be so interested to see what PJ would do with Doctor Who!
"The Hobbits bowed low. 'Most gracious host', said Frodo, 'It was said to me by Elrond Half-Elven that I should find friendship upon the way, secret and unlooked for. Certainly I have found no such friendship as you have shown. To have found it turns evil to great good."
