Doctor Who - New Series Trailer

Oh my word! Here's the new trailer for the "Doctor Who" series that's due to launch around about Easter. Matt Smith and Karen Gillan, you've already warmed my heart on a cold February day.

Please note that the BBC is encouraging the embedding of the above video in blogs, so long as I agree to their terms and conditions. So, spread the word and stick this in your blog, because this looks (to use an old Eccleston "Doctor Who" word) fantastic.

Very cool. I think "Not available in your area" really sums up what Doctor Who is all about. He's not human, so he's not one of us, so he's definitely 'not'. He's also 'not available', unless your name is Rose Tyler, in which case he might consider a spot of intergalactic rumpy-pumpy - but this is a family show, so let's just assume he's 'not available' for that sort of thing. Also, 'in your area' - I refer you back to the 'not' human thing, so he's clearly not from my area, 'your area' or, indeed, anyone's area.

It's brilliant - it's cryptic, it's haunting, it's multi-layered - exactly what I've come to expect from the show ;)

Oh dear, so sorry. Is this the Great Firewall of the UK stopping you seeing this? Sorry, good sir.

'tis the Great BBC Firewall - which is perfectly understandable since, being in Australia, I pay them neither a dime nor a penny (though I would if I could) so why should they expend their bandwidth on me?

I just found it quite amusing that the BBC is encouraging people to embed the video in their blogs whilst apparently forgetting that blogs aren't only read in the UK... aww, bless'em.

(Oh, and apparently I now have a Typepad profile - I shall consider this my gift from you)
