More spoilers!
Aug. 9th, 2006 07:03 pmThe BBC's DW website now has in-costume publicity shots of the Doctor and Martha, and also a bit more info on Martha herself and really basic two-word descriptions of some of the episodes (click on the splash page to get to the "filming begins on season 3" article/page o' summary).
I already squeeed about the Shakespeare one. Apparently there's going to be an episode set in 1930s New York--I really hope that the geeks behind the scenes can figure out a way to very subtly reference Invaders From Mars (or at least Charley!) without contravening any licensing issues between the Beeb and Big Finish. 'Cause I would probably squee myself into next Sunday if they could.
Martha the medical student, huh? That has promise!
I'm curious whether the blue suit the Doctor's wearing is his new costume. These look like in-costume shots, so it might be, but I'd be surprised if they ditched the brown, as it looks much better on him than this does.
ETA: It seems the blue suit is his new costume. Eyurg. It's not awful, but the brown is certainly better.

The blue suit...yeah, it's kinda odd. The texture looks strange, almost canvassy. And after DT had made pinstripes cool again! Makes sense in ways, though...another step in making sure the Doctor has clothes rather than a costume, and perhaps showing him trying to move on from Rose a bit, make a fresh start. Reminds me a little as well of the change in the 7th Doctor's wardrobe...after two seasons he switched from a cream jacket to a brown one, reflecting how he'd grown a bit darker. Of course I'm not so sure what signifance a blue suit has exactly...he's drinking more water? He's wearing his subconscious on his sleeve? *snerk*
