Random Thought

I was looking through a picspam I did ages ago for this and noticed



That hasn’t been in series four so far has it?

There’s a wristwatch in the background that suggests contemporary Earth, but the blue suit was worn in the Sontaran two-parter and I’m very sure that’s not from Partners in Crime.

While I’m not particularly knowledgeable in 1920s wristwatches, it couldn’t be from The Unicorn and the Wasp since he wears a white shirt in that episode underneath the brown suit. It’s part of the cinema trailer which was released before the Silence in the Library and the season finale were filmed.

But wasn’t Partners in Crime filmed back to back with Turn Left, which is how they got the Billie cameo in the first place? Does this mean the Doctor is in fact in Turn Left?

It's from the cinema trailer though, which was on YouTube before eps 12 & 13 were filmed. Although it really does look like it could be the villain reveal or the reveal of something big - I originally thought it was going to be from The Doctor's Daughter.

I knew that after I wrote all that. *headdesk* It's obviously SOMETHING from prior to the last two episodes then. We know "Turn Left" IS Doctor-Lite but not how much, of course. So it might be from that (maybe it's how he's taken out/disposed of/whatever is speculated to happen to him) or maybe at the end of "Midnight" if that leads into "Turn Left" i.e. the way "Poisoned Sky" lead into "TDD" (or perhaps from "Turn Left" leading into #12 once the Doctor shows up again assuming he does).

Oh, and it was Tom McRae's script that was moved to S5 (or so it's been rumoured) due to similarities to something else that was shot. What's odd is that Tom was talking about his script a year ago February which makes me wonder how all that happened without Rusty noticing until it was too late? I'm not too worried about McCrae's career though -- I've noticed his name on other stuff recently like Miss Marple and Lewis so he's definitely a busy boy! :)
