This just in, as of 6am BST (British Summer Time), the BBC has released the latest trailer for Doctor Who season seven. The season seven preview put out in March is also still available on BBCAmerica. If you have 90 seconds to be blown away by Daleks, Dinosaurs and Weeping Angels then get youself a bowl of popcorn right now. Better still, if you have ten minutes, watch it again and again, it's just that fantastic.
The image released yesterday showing the Doctor and Amy surrounded by Daleks gave us one of our first glimpses of the upcoming season and it's first offering "Asylum of the Daleks". The Doctor is injured, Amy is unconscious it would seem, and the Daleks that surround them are from several eras of the Doctor's past, not simply a single group and not confined to the post-Eccleston years.
The show will return to UK screens this fall with episodes seven through thirteen airing in 2013, and to the US later his year. So far the line up for season seven is confirmed as follows:
- Episode one "Asylum of the Daleks"
- Episode two "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship" featuring the ever so dashing Rupert Graves (Detective Inspector Lestrade in Sherlock)
- Episode three "A Town called Mercy", and yes that is Mr. Weasley running with the good Doctor.
- Episode four "Cubed"
- Episode six will be the Christmas special and will introduce the Doctor's new companion, Jenna Louise Coleman.
- Episode ten "The Crimson Horror" - this is a provisional title. This episode will costar Diana Rigg, the only woman to get James Bond down the aisle.
Filming of these episodes has caused a mild tweet storm from both cast and crew. If you aren't already following the likes of Steven Moffat and Arthur Darill, you can catch a transcript of their tweets over at the season seven tracker.
