The TARDIS Is Oranger Than I Remember
 |
?Magazine Radio Times got what I believe is the first look at the Doctor’s new TARDIS, which is orange, less steampunk-y than the previous occupant’s TARDIS, and has actual separate rooms which I’m ashamed to say makes me as excited as anything for the new Who episodes. I’m a little confused about the massive holes all over the floor, but overall I think I dig it. I’m significantly more confused as to why a magazine called Radio Times got a Doctor Who exclusive, and how a magazine called Radio Times still manages to exist in today’s print industry, but whatever.
