July 25th, 2017 - 11:13amBut it was a white out crossfade. It could easily have meant to represent some form of pregenerative glow. It was the same you might say with the crossover from peter davison to colin baker. I,m not suggesting its always a good thing to keep amending the shows mythology, but that doesn,t mean each regeneration has to be the same. The weakest example was the crossfade from jon to tom. Ideally it would be better if they tried something different Occasionally but it seems the firework display is very much part of the current form of regeneration and can it seems be incorporated into a new version of the classic series.

July 24th, 2017 - 11:49pmThe Brigader was not quite that Old, the Captain above looks somewhere between 30&40, that would make the Brigader about 80 when he 1st appeared, so maybe his Father?
Hitler did serve in the German Army during WW1 but at that time had a full lip Moustache, didn’t cut it down until the mid 1920s, so would be historicaly inaccurate.

July 24th, 2017 - 11:11pmThe fourth doctors sonic does appear in the first episode of Series ten,so maybe twelve gives it to him.

July 24th, 2017 - 10:51pmWhy is the 1st Doctors hand glowing? The Doctor didn’t start doing his firework hands until his 9th incarnation! This is Moffat clearly not happy enough with rewriting his own mythology, he now wishes to rewrite classic series mythology.

July 24th, 2017 - 10:45pmYeah…I will miss the 1st Doctor too… 🙂
Weeping Angel
July 24th, 2017 - 10:08pmThere seems to be some strange looking things in the background of the third last screenshot
the ergon
July 24th, 2017 - 8:22pmIt has that stereotypical look of an officer from the 1st world war. I was thinking more captain darling from blackadder meets the guy who assassinated franz ferdinand.

July 24th, 2017 - 6:53pmReally looking forward to this, will miss him when he goes
The Moffat Paradox
July 24th, 2017 - 6:09pmThat’s my theory.The great/grandfather/uncle of good old Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart?

July 24th, 2017 - 5:17pmI Hope The Doctor Regenerates In The Tardis
The Temporal Jelly Baby
July 24th, 2017 - 4:35pmI actually hope we don’t find out until Christmas.

July 24th, 2017 - 4:35pmI wouldn’t count on it, Christmas day can be busy enough schedule-wise

July 24th, 2017 - 4:32pmI think they will be against a situation rather than a villain ie. The fact time has stopped and the doctors must start it again. I’d say the original mondasian cybermen might make a cameo, but I dont think they’ll be the main obstacle.

July 24th, 2017 - 3:59pmOnce upon a time the doctor began.
Twice upon a time the doctor died.
The Living Shadow
July 24th, 2017 - 3:19pmOof. Don’t remind me!
Thomas
July 24th, 2017 - 2:51pmNo. He’s playing the First Doctor. Originally played by William Hartnell.
The Dalek Whovian
July 24th, 2017 - 2:37pmWow it looks great
Jackson
July 24th, 2017 - 1:48pmFrom news stories, Mark is playing a character called, simply… the Captain.
Could he be the Brigadier as a soldier in the First World War? I can’t wait to see him in action!
Demdike@CultLabs
July 24th, 2017 - 1:06pmIt looks okay, but who or what are the enemies?
Demdike@CultLabs
July 24th, 2017 - 1:06pmAccording to sources Gatiss character is called The Captain.
The Outcast
July 24th, 2017 - 11:22amYeah, I now doubt it. I reckon it will be the Brig, a relative of the Brig or a version of the Master in disguise.
Adam
July 24th, 2017 - 10:17amGoing from the uniforms Gatiss is Royal Field Artillery..and the chap pointing the gun is an Imperial German Soldier
Adam
July 24th, 2017 - 10:05amLovely to see the original tardis again..but is Bradley not the new Master…Leather gloves!?
Dalek Eye Stalk
July 24th, 2017 - 9:41amBrilliant trailer…but it’s still another 5 months until we actually see the episode!
the ergon
July 24th, 2017 - 9:37amBy missing scene, one that wasn,t shown on original transmission that fans won,t have seen if they had watched the tenth planet in its entrity.

Im really looking forward to this years christmas special but at the same time its going to be sad watching it knowing hes going to regenerate at the end of it

July 24th, 2017 - 9:06amGreat trailer! ‘Twice Upon A Time’ Looks very promising. Loved the opening sequence, with Hartnell morphing into Bradley. Great to see Pearle Mackie again, and good to see the Police Box design is the right one for each Doctor’s era. I just hope it lives up to all the hype. But being a Moffat script, it will no doubt be convoluted and leave you short changed.

July 24th, 2017 - 8:37ami think its some sort of projection as claras returning and this will be a trap.
