The thing about 9/10's is...well there's only one exit leading off...the door-where did everybody go in their downtime? XD At least with 11's you can see there is little corridors and stuff leading off the main room.
Ooo, these are all amazing. I love how eighties the eighties ones are, and being shown other rooms.
I think the cunning thing about making this time round's console out of bits of old random stuff is that it avoids the problem of being thrown out of sci-fi belief by recognising something. Like there's a bit in The Beast Below where Elven's fidlding with a console and there's a panel which is plainly the front of a pH meter, if you're used to seeing pH meters, so I went 'pfft, pH meter' when I saw it, but on the console when you see bits you recognise it's a bonus, not a problem.
I'm not as familiar as I should be with Classic Who, but I am loving Seven's TARDIS console! It's so 80s and ~~retro (I was born in 1989, shush). Nine/Ten's TARDIS is so different, which fits in with Rusty-era Who - that's not a criticism at all, it's just a markedly different era to Classic Who and Eleven-era Who. I like the Nine/Ten TARDIS, it looks like some post-apocalyptic Art Nouveau sea monster and as a seaboo I feel drawn to it.
When they're all set out like this, you can really see the Classic Who feel to Eleven's TARDIS, I love it ♥. My first reaction after seeing The Eleventh Hour was 'OMG I WANT TO LIVE IN THE TARDIS'; and I still do!
