BBC New Drama Trailer (Xmas Clips)

[StCoop]

Three Doctors for the price of one (and one of them twice).

Surprisingly the trailer's working outside the UK at the moment too.

Am I wrong, or is the "Next Doctor" in there once as well? The guy I'm thinking of is at about the 18 second mark and wearing a tuxedo.

 

[Bob The Skutter]

Yes that's David Morrissey. Looks like a decent drama slate.

 

[Whofan]

I wonder if this will be a take on "The Christmas Carol" as has often been rumored.

Not sure about the one with the Nazis, I think that's Matt's other movie.

David Morrissey is in there for South Riding.

some good stuff in that promo, thought it was amusing that 9, 10 & 11 all appeared in it, even if only 11 was in character, for some of the clips.

Funny how they've got Eccleston, Tennant, and Smith all in-house, so to speak. And, so close to 2013? Hmmm.....





(P.S. I'm joking)

 

[Dac]

I gotta say, that looks like a decent line up of shows regardless of the Who clips.

 

[wamdue]

they really should have at least a Two Doctors in 2013, im sure Tennant will do it, and I hope Smith will still be around then. Ok Eccleston for a Three Doctors would be nice, but he isnt Tennant.

Nice trailer

Nobody does drama quite like BBC, now I have to look out for all them series this fall

 

[SeerSGB]

Little fine-tuning and

Spoiler: Spoiler tag for the safe side

Scrooge at the end, just before 11 says he's the ghost of Christmas past could pass for the 1st doctor.

 

[Mr. Adventure]

"Talk to me again 'n I'll kill ya." -- Sounds like something I could imagine Eccleston saying.

The Nazi bits are probably from the bio-drama where Matt Smith's playing Christopher Isherwood, the author of the 1930s set Farewell to Berlin, aka Cabaret.

 

[David cgc]

Aw. I was kind of hoping Eleven would go incognito in Nazi Germany. For Christmas.

 

[Rowan Sjet]

A bookend to the usual Great Escape re-run?

(P.S. I'm joking)

I wish you weren't.

Those clips all look really great. Pity most of it will fail to live up to them (for me at least!) I really don't care for BBC drama.

Accused, the one with Christopher Eccleston in is a daytime drama written by Jimmy McGovern too. They're apparently reinvesting in proper drama during the day and this is the first one.

I've noticed lately I'm watching a lot more British TV than US.
Misfits, Skins, This is England 86, Him & Her, Grandma's House, Sherlock, Merlin, Spooks, Inbetweeners, Law & order UK all come to mind as recent new shows I've been watching, there's a load more I intend to watch. I'm just glad someone is investing in new shows. Glad to hear Channel 4 are reinvesting too. At this point it seems ITV do nothing more than crime drama.

There are clips for two shows with Eccleston, the other is call The Shadow Line.

 

[Bob The Skutter]

^Oh I didn't notice that. Looks like Accused has a good cast lined up and writing pedigree, might be worth checking it out.

Interviewer: "So, Mr Eccleston, tell us about your time on Dr. Who?"

Eccleston: "Talk to me again 'n I'll kill ya!"
