Is it 2010 yet?

[elisi]

So, yesterday, I copperbadge linked to more photos of Eleven, which I went and looked at and then got spoiled. 'Only' a casting spoiler, but... well, it made me happy. :) Under the cut a bit of nattering about Eleven's look and this spoiler!

It's River!!!!!!! Squeeeeee!!!! I've wanted to see River/Eleven ever since she first appeared, and there she is! Life is good and I am happy!

As for Eleven's outfit, then I'm beginning to think that it really works. Ten (bless him!) is such a peacock, but it'd make total sense for him to regenerate into someone more subdued/clueless. And since he *looks* so young, having him dress 'his age' (as it were) works beautifully. Someone at Sam's described it thus:

The top half is very old mannish, and the bottom half is all 'this is what you young people are wearing, right?' and it comes out very confusing. The Doctor has no idea how to dress his old/young self!

It just makes me smile.

Anyway, we're off to York for the day, so have fun without me! :)

PS. Did no one like my Jack meta from yesterday? I thought it was rather neat...

Well, I have to wait until I see CoE first.

Also, when I first saw this, I thought you were talking about a different River. Apparently I have a one fandom mind sometime.

And now, I must go to work.

Aw I know!

Fandoms have a tendency to re-use names. It's awkward.

Hope your day went well! *hugs*

I was so pleased to see River! I loved her in S4 (although I think we're in the minority there). And the more I see of Eleven the more I like him. I'll miss Ten, but I think Matt Smith is going to be great in the role. :)

Haven't read your Jack meta yet, but I will. :)

Well people didn't like Jack either when he first appeared. They'll come round. *g*

Also all the waiting it killing me... we're starved for Doctor-yness.

It's just the one thought really... it's the vids you should pay attention to!

Enjoy York.

[elisi]

We did. :)

Oh lord he is dressing up like the number Two Doctor, Patrick Troughton. Do you think he will be whistling as well ?

[elisi]

Oooh, continuity. Old Who fans would probably... well I don't know. But it'd be fun. :)

I've been out of touch. Huh, *interesting* outfit!

[elisi]

That was pretty much my first reaction too. But it's growing on me. (Darcy: 'He looks like a physics teacher!' It makes me smile.)

Actually, he looks a lot like my high school physics teacher. Especially if he occasionally has his sift tail poking out his zipper and one pant leg tucked into his sock.

River (I assume, and I'm curious as I liked her) is gorgeous though, and interestingly dressed.

Should I know who the blond woman in the back dress is?

Hee! Mine was pretty much bald and... a little peculiar. :)

That would be River... (The redhead is the new companion, Amy I think her name is)
