h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I think the new outfit looks silly if I'm honest. Looks like they're trying deliberately to make him quirky and making him look stupid instead. However this does mean they're not got for a modern look as DT's costume did so it could be making the point that it's going back to the roots of the show. Honestly though? When I first saw I I hated it. New viewers who are used to the regenerated (*ahem*) show, like me, aren't going to be used to it (DT and CE both looked fairly modern) and may not take it seriously until we've seen it in action, which isn't for a while yet. I hope the costume works, but so far, for me, it really doesn't.

Haven't seen this outfit. I'm guessing we're talking Matt Smith? Anyone got a link?

By the way, that video was quite interesting. Haven't made it to the end yet, but will check out the band later.

>Haven't made it to the end yet

Blimey NPY, and I thought I had a short attention...

Ooh look, cake!

It does look a little... odd

Of course thats not unusual for the Doctor... I'm kinda hoping that outfit will be a one-off like in the becomming human story...

The new costume is here ...

There's a new trailer and a clip for Water of Mars here ... http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/s4/episodes/?episode=S0_07&character=&action=videostream&playlist=/doctorwho/playlists/s0_07/video/s0_07_trl_03.xml&video=1&date=&summary=&info=&info2=&info3=&tag_file_id=s0_07_trl_03

There are also some articles in including spoilers in the News list ... (be careful of even the abstracts if you don't want to know) ... http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/s4/news/

Yeah, short attention....just wanted to get back and post something before I got carried away looking up Dr Who on youtube.

That is such an odd outfit for Matt Smith. Don't think I like it.

Anyone else seen the trailer for the christmas special yet? Looks rather good...

For the Christmas special? Where?

it was shown at the comic con... there are poor quality vids on youtube, but they're good enough... it's probably gonna be bolted onto the end of WOM like they did with POTD

I put a link to trailers over in the Spoilers for Specials thread.

actually, i'm interested in what non-spoiled people think is gonna happen in the christmas specials...

Speaking as a non-spoilered person... dunno

There'll be a regeneration, of course - presumably towards the end of the last special. I watched the trailer for WoM and promptly forgot it. That's kind of the point of avoiding the spoilers!

(Though since RTD does play games with misleading spoilers, I'm not sure whether avoiding the spoilers might reduce the 'Who experience'.)

The christmas one shown was similar in style to the one for the next doctor... basically a sequence of flashing images then a line of text

RTD's trailers tend to have a lot of misdirection in them anyway

The next Doctor was fairly accurate wrt what happened... in that there were cybermen

But he wasn't the next doctor ... that's quite misdirected isn't it?

That stuff wasn't in the first trailer though... it just said COMMING CHRISTMAS 2008 - THE RETURN OF THE CYBERMEN (feels need for a<cyberman&gt

This weeks Radio Times has some interesting pics of new doctor, new TARDIS outside and.... POSS SPOILER BELOW

It's right that the trailers kinda give a deceptive wrong idea, like the "next doctor" and the doc's daughter.

who is one the cover of that one, I don't usually buy it...
