Discussion: Planet of the Dead Trailer

April 1st, 2009

potd_busWhovians rejoice! The official Planet of the Dead trailer has just had its anticipated debut on BBC One!

The preview, which was also shown earlier on BBC HD, featured a mash-up of new clips from the Easter special, which will transmit on BBC One and BBC HD at 6:45PM on Saturday 11th April 2009.

The episode, written by Russell T Davies and co-written by Gareth Roberts, sees a London bus take a detour to an alien world, where the Doctor must join forces with the extraordinary Lady Christina to fight the planet’s terrifying secrets, hidden in the sand. But time is running out. The deadly Swarm are getting closer…

    I absolutely loved it. It looks like it’s going to be one of those brilliant episodes that focuses on human psychology, like Midnight.

    TBH…. i wasnt blown away. I mean its intriguing, but it tells you nothing other than the doctor is on a sand planet with a bus… well we knew that anyway!

    The trailers are always a bit lacking. I agree entirely with Mass, but I don’t care. I was still sitting on the sofa at 8:55, waiting for the trailer, and I will still be squealing the closer we get to Easter Saturday, and I’m sure the ep will be better than the trailer.
