I would burn down the world for you, darling.

These pics of Ncuti Gatwa in character as the Fifteenth Doctor dropped the other day! They are DELIGHTFUL.
But as I excitedly viewed them several times over I started thinking, I have definitely seen that jacket in Doctor Who before. And then I realised where I’d seen it:
Okay, it’s not quite the same jacket, the Doctor’s version doesn’t have the big buttons on the side. But it’s similar enough to make me think… Is the Doctor wearing it because it reminds him of Donna? And is that a happy thing or a sad thing?!
We got a trailer today!
I’m so happy to see Donna back, her deeply unjust ending FINALLY about to be fixed, and her daughter! She had a daughter! We get to meet her next year!
And I have slightly mixed feelings, I admit. If it was just Catherine Tate as Donna coming back I’d be over the moon! But the Tenth Doctor is here too and as much as I like David Tennant, I hate Ten. As you know. I’m sorry!
In the press release Russell T Davies implied it could just be a flashback or a parallel universe but what I REALLY want is for him to finally reverse Donna’s terrible ending, I’m still salty about it over a decade later.
Well at least no-one will have to digitally de-age them.
I’m worried this one is a little too similar to the Martha cover (similar colours, same positioning of Tardis/Doctor/villain) but I still like it!
Coming up next will be Amy, my fave.
I didn’t watch along (I plain don’t have time these days) but I did put together some snippets from Sophia’s, RTD’s and Moffat’s twitters that I found interesting.
Good. He’s still the best.
