Trailers: DOCTOR WHO - Series 7b & 50th Anniversary

Doctor Who returns in just a few weeks, so the BBC have released a trailer for series 7b (embedded above). It promises more mystery with new companion Clara Oswald (Jenna-Louise Coleman), Warwick Davis in a flying ace helmet, a perilous space walk across asteroids, scarier Cybermen, lots of new baddies in helmets, pale eyeless creatures in top hats, a city plane crash, the return of Strax the Sontaran, and much more.

However, arguably more exciting is a cool 50th anniversary tease fans have put together (see below), promoting the weekend of celebrations come 23 November. Doctor Who always feels especially epic whenever they include footage from the classic series, which helps sell the idea Who's been in a jewel in the BBC's crown for half-a-century. (Well, ignoring those 16 years when it was off-air.)
