I really like it, seems a lot more like the original console, back to buttons and levers and not bits of junk

a lot darker looking too.

I like the look of that. It brings to mind happy memories of watching Peter Davison attack the underside of the console with various tools, and pull out handfuls of circuit boards, cables and ribbon cables.

If I remember correctly Colin Baker was always doing that too.

Is that a new coat too?

He really is morphing into Patrick Troughton isn't he?

I agree the console is miles better than the glass floored two level effort with bits of junk, that really annoyed me that console.

Its a totally new outfit. Victorian in style as that is where he is just now and wants to blend in rather than stand out.

I think we are in for a really treat this christmas and also the second half of the season.

I think that that was the best Christmas Special in ages

Fun, funny, and it seems that it's tied into the next story arc. Much better than flying sharks.

Good to see certain characters again, too.

Now you all hold yourself steady here....... I actually ENJOYED that one

Tezcatlipoca · 25-12-2012, 18:39

Oh, I also liked the ties to earlier stories... Great Intelligence, London Underground, etc.
