nth for Jodie.

Who doesn't love the Drashigs?

>tfw no calm floor regen

Why did you make the thread early?

What's /who/ with you?

Because there was no discussion, just spamming numbers to reach the thread limit

would you settle for exposive floor regen?

What if the TARDIS de-materialises around him because it gets so damaged and he regenerates falling through the vortex, and then lands in Sheffield.

That's a fucking stretch.

I know, but its fun to speculate

WHAT THE FUCK ARE THOSE WALLS

!!!

Doctor Who is dead.

What did they do to the round things??

Please don't use DWTV's, they're really low res. Try here:

SUPER HI RES / HD PHOTOS HERE LADS

That's the "fourth wall" we never actually saw.

Nice outfit, Bill

ITS STARTING

thats fuckin kino

kino

PURE KINO

Will it get broken?

...

...

Nice shot.

I can't believe Capaldi has dethroned S5 Matt Smith for most deliciously wavy NuWho hair.

Hang on lads

Twelve's coat is definitely nowhere near as tattered and shredded in these images as the one that Jodie is wearing in those filming photos.

The fuck is gonna happen to him in this episode? He's suffered enough. ;_;

...

Well, chances are, he's going to explode.

I really don't expect the episode itself to be the kind where he's getting brutalised by monsters.

...

WHAT TEH FUCK IS WITH THE ROUNDALLS THEY ARE FHCIKING WRONG MY AUITUMS CANNOT HANDLE THIS

10's suit looked very tatty when regeneration energy exploded from him, so

Go to bed Clayton.

See and (shows both styles)

Watching The Pilot in casualwhostream in a few minutes

They're not wrong, it's showing a wall we rarely actually got to see in-universe since the camera equipment was actually there. When we did get to see it, it was hilariously completely different each time. Seriously, One/Two's TARDIS never had the same layout twice.

Doctor Who: Generations

kino

Couldn't the same be said of Three's Tardis pretty much?

Well, yes, but One and Two had the same basic interior.

S-So many freckles

I get the feeling the episode will show an 'idealised' version of the interior. Interesting that the clock, astral map, and other stuff is knocking about too. It's like The Best Of interior for Hartnell (which they can get away with since it was never really seen in Tenth Planet)

TARDIS looks like it's steaming up a bit more than usual?

Let's see what we can actually work out from this.

Where do you think it's set, looking at the background? Where would those chairs be?

...that's 12's TARDIS, on one of the lower levels. The hexagonal door is behind him and we've seen that chair before, down some steps next to the console

>oh look kek she's black and a lesbian

Possibility: It's one chair with a funky backrest, it's not actually part of the scene and those are script pages.

I feel a bit bad for Bill, this whole story is basically her and a load of leery old men.

>tfw looks like a black chumbley in the thumbnail

REMEMBER THAT 360 TARDIS VIRTUAL TOUR, THE DOOR SAID "COME BACK DECEMBER 6TH LADS" IT'S DECEMBER 6TH WHAT HAVE THEY REVEALED?

thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/tardis/interior/season-1-interior/

Absolutely. Take a look at this if you want to get an idea of just how much it changed between one episode and the next.

N-new trailer today??

So, Bill has three outfits in TUAT? The one from the promo poster, the one from TDF and the new jacket one

doctor-who-explorer.pilots.bbcconnectedstudio.co.uk/

The Pilot starting in 1 minute. cytu.
be/r/casualwhostream

Trailer would be expected this week falls in line with what has usually been the date for a christmas trailer.

...

Who is this?

...

guys, they even kept the 'glimpse into the old TARDIS' completely black like in classic Who. KINO

kino

THATS FUCKING KINO

TOP KINO

Would be really cool if they did the First Doctor's TARDIS as well.

Why are the colours so funky? If they fixed that and had an option for turning off all the icons this would be perfect.

Why did the doctor use the font that's used in doctor who opening titles and credits?

Doctor Who's Christmas special gives the First Doctor a "proper exit" at last, says David Bradley

This year's festive episode 'Twice Upon a Time' will rewrite history.

"Of course, he wasn't well when it finished," Bradley told press including Digital Spy. "I think by doing this, it does give him a proper exit, and it's a way of honouring his performance, hopefully."

"He's had enough," Bradley explained. "He doesn't want to regenerate. he's seen enough of the universe and everything in it to be disillusioned, and he's just having doubts. He leaves the TARDIS, wanders through the show, and he bumps into the twelfth Doctor, who's also having trouble."
digitalspy.com/tv/doctor-who/news/a844681/doctor-who-christmas-special-first-doctor-regeneration/

Wait... your that Doctor from another dimension!

Right that makes sense!

"He's had enough," Bradley explained. "He doesn't want to regenerate."

Great. Genuinely retconning The Tenth Planet. Fgs.

I genuinely cannot believe that anyone takes sonic lore seriously when they constantly pull shit like this

have you read the original tenth planet script user

Really, when you think about it, there's no reason regeneration energy shouldn't burn your clothes off if it's so absurdly explosive it can destroy a fucking TARDIS and Dalek ships
I demand they fix this plothole specifically for Capaldi's regeneration into Jodie

You mean the one with the line about him not wanting to change, which was taken out of the final script/episode?

Do we know it was taken out of the script and wasn't just a scene left on the cutting floor for time?

digitalspy.com/tv/doctor-who/news/a844538/doctor-who-david-bradley-recast-steven-moffat/

Could Doctor Who recast more old Doctors? Steven Moffat thinks it's possible

Even if it was left on the cutting room floor, then that's that. It wasn't in the episode, thus it doesn't count. Until now, which makes it a retcon.

If we know the master is going to become misdy, we know how her story is going to end. i like the idea of TDF being the actual ending for the character, because its so brilliant. but in all honesty, a character with a fixed ending has not much interesting going for them

>strawpoll.me/14557757/
It should be before Simm and Missy, not between, that would ruin the Simm to Gomez kino.

"Let's be honest, we're making a show where everyone's watching for the last two minutes," Moffat confesses, on set for his final episode.

Chibnall was effectively shadowing Moffat on his final series, which aired earlier this year on BBC One. "I told him everything we were doing. I talked him through the whole finale before I wrote it, just to make sure that I wasn't bumping against anything he was about to do – which I wasn't.

"All year, he's been getting every draft of every script, so he can see what will happen. And he's still doing the job, thank God!

"I'm enjoying talking to the new lot. I was just talking to them yesterday, and they're all so excited and lovely, and kind of nervous. And predictably, I'm quite liking that for the first time in about 10 years, I don't have a deadline!"

Once he hands the reins over to Chibnall, Moffat's confirmed that, like his predecessor Russell T Davies, he won't be returning to write for the series, "certainly in the short term".

"And the short term is very long. You can't be the boss of something and then loiter around the office saying, 'Can I do that bit?' – you have to clear out. I mean, I've written an awful lot of it, so I don't mind not writing it again. I absolutely loved it. I still love it. I still get very excited about it. But I'm fine with not writing it again.

"I think I've had most of my ideas several times in the show! I was terrified that I was running out towards the end. I think not. I was very pleased that the finale two-parter [series 10's 'World Enough and Time' / 'The Doctor Falls'] went down so well, because I was quite near the end."

You fucking autist.

Throughout his time as Doctor Who's head writer and showrunner, Moffat has become a familiar figure to fans, appearing at series launches, conventions, and always taking part in publicity for the series.

But if he had his time over, the Emmy winner admits he'd "be less visible": "Being visible as a writer is not… we're not designed by nature to be seen by people. Let's be honest. We should be concealed as far as possible.

"I haven't really enjoyed that very much. I never really thought about it. I just assumed I had to do what I was told, as far as all publicity was concerned.

"Also — and this is the intractable bit – back in the day, I'd always be trying to convince Matt Smith or Karen Gillan to turn up somewhere or to do some interview, and if I don't... then it doesn't look very good."

Moffat's tenure has seen Doctor Who nominated for BAFTAs and earn strong critical favour with standout episodes including his own 'Listen' and 'Heaven Sent', but he calls the BBC family sci-fi series "a a very, very, very stressful show to make".

"There have been very, very difficult times on it. Sometimes it's four in the morning, and the script's not finished, and you didn't even write the f**ker.

"You feel quite rancid. And just worried. Just constantly stressing about it. Every day of the job, you're worrying about something. Every day you're in the job, you're worried about something about Doctor Who.

"You can't ever comfort yourself that it always all works out, because it really doesn't. Sometimes, the thing you were worried about, you were quite right to be worried about, and now it's a bit shit. So yeah, there were moments."

Despite the stresses, the late nights, the difficulties, Moffat insists that his love of the show itself has never wavered. Instead, he insists that he'll "be behind the sofa" for the next series, launching on BBC One in the autumn of 2018.

What is your opinion on Doctor hoodies?

"I don't think my love of the show... was ever under threat. I imagine it'll be a moment of adjustment... I think it'll take me a moment to go, 'What the hell's happening? When did they make this one? Have I been out of the office?' – though that's kind of already happening. I know there are scripts in this building that I don't know anything about.

"But I mean, I will watch it. Russell always watches it, he hasn't given up on watching it. It took Matt [Smith] longer, I think. Which is funny, because he was the non-fanboy. But I would hate to think that I wouldn't watch it because I used to work on it. To turn it into an open wound that I can never return to!"

You could just link the article.

Doctor Who's head writer and showrunner Steven Moffat has hinted that Capaldi's regeneration – coming in this year's Christmas special 'Twice Upon a Time' – will be the most explosive we've ever seen.

On set for the special, Digital Spy asked Moffat why this Doctor is fighting so hard to avoid his latest face swap. "I think he's just tired of it," he explained. "We go into that in this episode.

"Imagine you had to regenerate? It's not dying. It wouldn't be like dying at all. Dying's awful – you just disappear. But [with regeneration], you really would be somebody else. Imagine that?

"Imagine you had to go through a process, and you had no idea how you're going to come out of it. You look in a mirror, and you feel different, and you sound different. It would be absolutely terrifying."

But according to Moffat, there's another reason why the Doctor is scared to change – each time he goes through the process, his regenerations grow more violent and less predictable.

"I was worrying about this with Chris [Chibnall, taking over as showrunner in 2018]. Every time we regenerate him, he's blowing up more and more shit, isn't he?

"He used to lie delicately on the floor and wibble a bit, and he'd be somebody else. Then [in David Tennant's swansong, 'The End of Time'], he blows up the whole entire TARDIS – for no reason that either Russell [T Davies] or I could think of, but someone on the internet suggested that it was because of all the radiation he'd absorbed.

"Then [in Matt Smith's final outing, 'The Time of the Doctor'], he blows up an entire Dalek fleet. I mean, he must be worried he's going to wipe out half the universe this time. So we have included the idea that it's getting more volcanic each time."

Of course, we know that he eventually goes through with it – with Capaldi giving way to Jodie Whittaker. Helping our current Doctor through his regeneration crisis is his very first incarnation (David Bradley), who's pondering a similar problem.

I could but this is also fine, and easier to quote from.

Also, I'm an autist apparently.

Honestly, I'm not sure I particularly like this precedent RTD has apparently set for running the show and then never working on it directly ever again.
