I will stop writing about trailers when amazing ones stop getting released, I promise. Until then, let’s all collectively freak out over the new Doctor Who trailer, released just this morning. Giving us exactly enough to make even the most impatient of us wish we could grab a TARDIS and emerge on October 7th, the trailer features the Doctor and her companions, a spaceship, Jakku?, and hints at this Doctor’s personality. If anyone was worried that the show would fundamentally change, this trailer should alleviate those concerns. There seems to be just as much corridor running, sonic screwdriver using, and assertions of authority in unfamiliar situations as before.
Personally, this geek has been excited about Jodie Whittaker’s debut as the Doctor since it was announced (seemingly forever ago). While losing an old favourite is always hard, I am eager to see which direction the Doctor goes in next.
Doctor Who (finally) returns to the small screen on Sunday October 7.
