SDCC 2015: ‘Doctor Who’ Season 9 Trailer (and More Goodies!)

(better read with a British accent)

One of the brilliant things about San Diego Comic-Con is that it’s making life aces even if you’re not jammy enough to be there getting gobsmacked directly.

Sure, if you’re at the Con you can pick up the exclusive Doctor Who comic (covers’ art by Alice X. Zhang) and you’re likely jolly well delighted to be the first to get the scrummy scoop first-hand on the Whovian chapter of LEGO Dimensions. . . Let us pause to reflect on the trailer:

However, you’re no damp squib if you’re not arse over elbow with the makeuped and costumed in Southern California—you’ll just need a smidge of patience for your fix.

If, like me, you’ve been suffering doldrums waiting yonks for the good Doctor’s return to the telly then it may please you to hear the announcement out of SDCC 2015 that we only have to make it a bit further—September 19, Doctor Who returns! While the news of Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams’s appearance is now officially confirmed, showrunner Steven Moffat isn’t dropping much in the way of more clues. (Judging only by the cracking trailer, I’m going to guess she’s Zorro.)

Fancy a dekko at the series 9 trailer?—it’ll put the colour back in your cheeks.

Blinding! Not enough? Feast your hungry little skull orbs on these highlights from the panel. Pip pip now, off you pop.
