The Beeb won’t let Americans and other furriners see it, so thank the enterprising individuals who put [this](http://www.trekbbs.com/showthread.php?p=1672838#post1672838) online for you.

Don’t watch if you don’t want a huge spoiler, as if the Radio Times won’t do that the week before the episode shows but…

Wouldn’t it be interesting to see what RTD and NuWho makes of Davros?

So, those books list all 9,000,000,000,000 names, then.

It’s too late at night (or is it too early in the morning?) for me too type a proper post, but I just had to say that thats a damned good trailer, just hope the actual episodes live up to it.

Of God perhaps? Someone on another board pointed out that those stars would have been going out millions of years ago for us to see them today as it were, I assumed if it was alright for Arthur C Clarke, it’d be ok for a Doctor who dealt in timey-wimey.

As trailers go, it didn’t thrill me as much as the first-half-season trailer. It seemed rather heavily weighted on one particular plot.

But it still makes me anxious to see more.
