The Doctor, master of space and time: the BBC, would-be masters of pre-release buzz. The first minute (well, 43 seconds) of the first episode of Doctor Who series 1/31/5/whatever (the new series of Doctor Who, basically) has been released.



A clip from later in the episode has also shown up on BBC News.



What are our first thoughts about Doctor "chin, blimey!" Eleven? I'm liking what I'm seeing of Matt Smith's performance. A lot. Think this could be some mighty fine Saturday evening TV.
