    It’s just as good though.

    that’s probaly the doctor’s clone opeining the Tardis door, he looks unnatural and plasticy to me.

    I want to know now who is River????

    Have they given the ending to the first half away? Why is the Doctor saying to Amy “We will find you”??

    I’m hoping the Tardis appearing like that is an unnatural way of landing, because redesigning materialisation after all these years would spoil the show for me, but as we saw in Season 5, River could land the Tardis is a different way to most Time Lords have, so……….

    As for the American trailer, yeah, it’s quite cool and it’s always good to see different pieces of the same puzzle.

    “Trust me, I’m the Doctor”… That was Tennant’s voice, wasn’t it? (No I don’t think he’s coming back, I just think it’s odd they used a voice clip from a previous series).

    And maybe that’s a sign I’ve watched too much DW, when I can tell which Doctor it is from a 5 second sound byte? Nah…
    ;)

    No, I’m 99% sure that is Matt Smith’s voice saying “Trust me, I’m the Doctor”, I’ve listened to it through my earphones and it’s not the 10th Doctor’s voice

    @JC
    Yup, it’s definitely Matt.

    @JC, @Rich Higton
    To be honest, I don’t think they’ve redesigned how the TARDIS materialises. I think it’s just the TARDIS coming out of stealth mode, like how the TARDIS vanishes in The End of Time.

    The episode premieres in the UK first before being shown in the US a few hours later ;)

    The part where he says “Trust me, Im the doctor…” is from The Eleventh Hour…. so its not David Tennant

    Aha. Right you are. Good, I’m not watching too much Doctor Who after all ;)

    It would spoil the show?! The whole show?! Never let it be said that us fans can be over the top! :)

    Looks to me like it is indeed coming out of some sort of stealth mode, as opposed to landing.

    Are they leaving Amy behind? Why? ARGH!

    Brilliant trailer. Lots more dialogue than the UK one. And another ‘Hello Sweetie’! :D

    @TWWL
    It’s not so much being over the top, in this case, it was about the identity of the show. The Tardis materialises and dematerialises a certain way, even people who hardly know of Doctor Who know that and to change it would change part of the identity of what Doctor Who is.

    To be honest, Season 5 really tested me as a fan and I could have walked away at points, even and especially as recently as the Comic Relief Specials, so I guess I am slightly over-sensitive to anything Moffat may do to……..tick me off, shall we say.

    @JC
    They’re not going to actually change it though, there’s no reason to, and a fan, like Moffat is, wouldn’t. If it did ever change, it would tick me off, but off course I wouldn’t stop watching, it’s only one tiny element, as long as the show itself was still good; so I would argue that to actually stop watching if the way The Tardis materialises changed would be very much an overreaction.

    I have noticed you do seem very irked at things that happen in the show, as though Moffat was wrecking the programme, when, really, it’s very much the same show it’s been since it returned. Did you get this way during RTD’s run? Because if things Moffat has done have angered you to the point of considering giving up on the show, I can’t see how you couldn’t have had exactly the same thoughts at points during RTD’s reign. It’s not as though Moffat’s come in and gone crazy with the programme, he actually stayed, in series 5, a lot closer to what RTD had laid down than many hoped/expected he would.
