Well, it fooled me! Thought it was a bit early, but took it at face value.

This is actually an exceptional fan work - more on how it was made.

fandom, droo

I PITY US FOOS!

It does. I'm amazed at how they used static images and *animated* them. A composite of video footage is one thing, but this was stills!

Rory! *flails* Have I mentioned that I'm glad he came back?

Rory is lovely. We've not had a male character like him in Doctor Who since Fitz Kreiner. Who is a book-only guy. So hardly anyone knows his awesomeness.

Yeah, I've not read any of the tie-ins so I've not met him. It's just nice to have a fairly down-to-earth and devoted male character. I suppose there was Mickey, but he was just played as an idiot most of the time.

(As for the fake bit, I really should have guessed - they had a photo on the One Show last week and all it showed was the Doctor, the Tardis and some snow. :P)

How to make Snow sinister. :D

I thought the date might have had something to do with it being an early release - 4 month count down. A teaser every month for the next three didn't seem too far-fetched.

Mickey was played as comic relief / comic book hero far too often. Rory can go that way too easily as well - hopefully the writers don't make that same mistake.

I got all the way through the vid and posted this before I realised I was tricked!

Still, it has made me a bit excited already. Here I am, wanting winter before summer has actually finished...

Awwww

Mind you... *looks out the window* How was it going back on the hovercraft?

It was very wet! But, not at all lumpy bumpy (:D). We were on the bigger hovercraft, even though there weren't many passengers. Maybe that was done deliberately for the weather conditions.

I did notice it was a bit difficult looking out the window because the horizon was rolling around, but if you kept eyes forward you didn't notice.

Holy cow that was AMAZING. I can't believe they did all that with just stills! That fan has some serious skills! I would watch that show!! *LOL*

I'm thinking of getting a youtube account so I can subscribe to their newsletter - if they can keep doing things like that, I'd definitely want to keep watching.

I'm already burning for Christmas - hee, the BBC have to live up to / beat this teaser now!
