Looks okay, I especially love that the redesigned Daleks have been forgotten about. They were worse than the new Mini, you don't mess with the classics.

Love this moment in new trailer;

[Bad City Blue]

Watched the leaked episode 1 last night, and it's very, very good - not at all like half of last season.

Some great character interaction, acknowledgement of past annoyance and laugh out loud lines.

I'm not a spolier, except for myself, and I am looking forward to the broadcast version.

I loved Matt Smith, but last season was very boring and confusing.

One thing I will say is it looks like we have another dreaded arc - such an overused convoluted device these days.

Listen! (To what?)

Also TARDIS console been updated.

Looking forward to this, due to Capaldi. Haven't watched it for years, it's been camp as Christmas since Eccleston left, hard to stomach. And I have tried, several times...

[Sideshow Bob]

Also looking forward to this....and am hopeful that it will be a 'darker' Dr Who than the previous incarnations....Slightly worried though as I had heard Frank Skinner was getting a role in one of the episodes....but will wait until I see it before passing comment..
Peter Capaldi does look good in the role though !!
Cheers

I haven't seen a full episode of Who since Sylvester McCoy's day but will be taking Mrs Zeal to the cinema to see the new episode this month. Is there any point in me trying to find out what has happened in the intervening years or should I just go to the cinema and fall asleep? She is a huge Who fan so won't appreciate me asking daft questions about what's going on.

Just look at the pretty explosions and don't try and follow the plot.

[Colin YNWA]

A couple of things - firstly isn't it nice to have a proper full season again (this is a full season right?)

Secondly am I the only one who fines the title 'Into the Dalek' a little weird?

Third did Dan Abnett write these title 'Robot of Sherwood' and 'Mummy on the Orient Express' are puns you'd think he decided to reject?

[zombemybabynow]

can't wait - fingers crossed - the writing helps the actress who plays clara - no empathy for her last series

Ben Wheatley? Seriously? Ben fucking Wheatley? Haven't they seen anything else he's done, or are they really determined to have parents joining their kids hiding behind the couch, quaking with terror? Michael Smiley would make a great villain.
