Danny Boy!
So, looking forward to Series Eight, we’ve gone from THIS
Doctor Capaldi and Clara, to THIS
Doctor Capaldi, Danny and Clara. Hmmm…
first reaction to this was that The Moff was going right back to 1963 for 2014′s Who with Danny and Clara being the new Ian and Barbara. Still not entirely sold on them both being teachers at Coal Hill unless Moffat has an end of series cameo from William Russell planned… place the Fangasmatron on Yellow Alert, just in case!
And still don’t get how Ian couldn’t find Totters Lane in the fog, if, as Day of The Doctor indicates, it’s right next door to the school. Surely Babs would have said something. So I reckon that could well be a plot point, that somebody has moved the yard closer to the school. Either that or it’s going to be like Amy Pond’s Staircase and just stay unexplained…
Either way, the more I think about it the less I think Danny and Clara are the new Ian and Barbara. I doubt they’ll be Amy and Rory either, as we’ve already had that relationship in the show and why would they just repeat themselves.No, I reckon Moffat’s cunning plan is to have the one companion relationship we’ve not had yet in New Who, and that we haven’t had since the Classic Series. My money is on Danny and Clara being the new Sarah and Harry…

BLOOPERS! – The Daleks
Since yesterday was fifty years to the day that the very first Dalek story finished transmission, here’s all the bloopers I managed to spot in the story!
in this first one, you can see the top of the set…
Also, and this is more of a discontinuity than an actual blooper, but where the hell did the Food Machine come from? It’s suddenly appeared in the console room and it wasn’t there in An Unearthly Child! Did the old girl know they’d be hungry?
Next, you can see the TV Studio lights reflected in the panel behind Bill…
The advanced civilisation of Gallifrey still relies on plugs and cables!
Not only has one of the switches on the console been broken already, that roundel’s looking a bit crinkly…
You can’t see it terribly well in this screengrab, but there’s a whacking great moving boom shadow just behind Ian throughout this scene…
…and by the time we get to episode two it’s right on his face!
In this one, the shadow on the Tardis is a camera, you can see it tilt [ready to take the next shot, a close up of Ganatus] as the camera taking this shot moves to the right
Wardrobe! Alydon’s bra strap’s come undone!
It’s episode five before we get our next blooper – behind the cardboard cut out Daleks is a sheet, not a wall…
If you look, you can see the inflatable rubber ring the “monster” sits on!
Here, there’s a boom shadow creeping into shot just behind Susan’s head…
This gives away that the rocks are polystyrene – was nobody on hand with a black felt tip just in case this sort of thing happened?
What the hell is this “A” on the floor for? Is it to mark a camera position?
More tell-tale polystyrene…
And to finish, here’s probably the best one of the lot – I know studio space was tight at Lime Grove, but that looks like the Tardis set! So either the lead in to Edge of Destruction was filmed in this studio session, or they were really short of flats to fill up the space!

The Sontarans…
The Ice Warriors…
The Zygons…
