First Promo Image for Doctor Who Series 7B


Last night the BBC released a new promo image for the first episode of Doctor Who, Series 7B, which will be entitled 'The Bells of St John'.  What's really neat about the promo image, other than the Doctor's new threads, are all of the hidden villains that will be featured in the second half of the season, including the revamp of a classic Who-monster, the Ice Warriors.

'The Bells of St John' will be the first "official" introduction to the Doctor's new companion, Clara Oswald, played by Jenna-Louise Coleman.  I use "official" loosely, since we've already seen Coleman twice this season, but as different incarnations of what we can only guess will be the same character somehow.

Executive producer and head writer, Steven Moffat said:
"It's the 50th year of Doctor Who and look what's going on! We're up in the sky and under the sea! We're running round the rings of an alien world and then a haunted house. There's new Cybermen, new Ice Warriors and a never before attempted journey to the centre of the TARDIS. And in the finale, the Doctor's greatest secret will at last be revealed! If this wasn't already our most exciting year it would be anyway!"
I'm really excited for the second half of series 7 and can't wait to see what Moffat has in store for the 50th anniversary *cough*all 11 doctors please*cough*.

Doctor Who returns to BBC and BBC America on March 30th.

What do you think of the promo image?  Excited?  Meh?  Let me know in the comments below.
