Quick post

I'm just feeling rotten again, sorry (again, again, again) but more importantly, this passed my tumblr dash and cheered me up. The latest Classic Who blu-ray release is S8 - and so it also now has an amazing trailer too (tho' not quite as good as the one with Ace obv. ;-p) and it made me squeak happily anyway:

Watch on YouTube

XD

ETA: Oh, I'm not keeping up at all - look Jo and Cliff already had a mini-adventure a year and more ago as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WBpPWy7jB8

"Can't we ever have a normal weekend?!"

Oh, this is lovely. Thanks for posting it. And I do so love that version of the theme tune...

[thisbluespirit]

Turns out this isn't the first time they've used Jo and Cliff in one of these, but I have to say I think S8 is more fun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WBpPWy7jB8

"Can't we ever have a normal weekend?!"

XD That was my favourite bit too!!

[swordznsorcery]

Oh yes, that one's nice too. You're right though - the new one is more fun!

Oh no, I'm sorry that you're feeling rotten again, I hope things get better soon! You shouldn't apologise, though! *hugs*

I'm glad that trailer could cheer you up, it really is fun! :D

[thisbluespirit]

Thank you!

[astrogirl]

Oh, that is utterly, utterly delightful!

The trailer that is, of course, not you feeling rotten again. That is much less delightful and I can only hope it improves soon.

[thisbluespirit]

It really is, isn't it? XD

And thank you!

I'm just feeling rotten again

*hugs*

I hope you feel better again soon.

[thisbluespirit]

Thank you!

<3 Yay Jo! Nice trailer:) I'm re-watching S8, Daemons up next! I prefer Mind of Evil in b/w that's what I'd want as an extra.

Sorry you're feeling rotten *hugs*

You could always just turn the colour down on your TV while you watch it? While I've been feeling so bad, I wound up getting sucked into a DW reaction channel that pedanther recommended, and I was very amused when the reactor got to Jon Pertwee's first season, she was all "I don't know how I feel about DW in colour!" And I laughed, because once you get into old telly these kind of things happen. XD

It's a really fun trailer. Cheered me up no end last night, which was something.

Luckily I have MoE b/w video release so I switched over and was a lot happier even if the picture was softer.

Lol, decent better quality pictures; I can't cope! 'Spearhead from Space' does look fabulous because of the film stock which isn't natural for old TV;p

[thisbluespirit]

Ha, I'm glad you've still got the b&w for when you need it!

[romanajo123]

That trailer is incredible!
😁

Hope you feel better 🤗 🙏

[thisbluespirit]

Aw, thanks! ♥

I love how they've been doing these trailers for the Blu-Rays. Well, I'd seen the Ace one but didn't know about either of these two.

I hope you feel less rotten soon.

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks!

And, yes, I saw the Ace one and the one with Janet doing the air hostess routine for S19, but I hadn't been keeping up. Most of these others have the actors doing stuff rather than the characters, but I quite liked S14's with Louise Jameson and the last line of the S23 one for Colin and Nicola was good! (I haven't got the links to hand, but YT coughed them up when I googled season whatever trailer" so I'm sure you can cope.)

[paranoidangel]

Ooh, they were good. I found the Doctor Who YouTube has a collection (although it doesn't include the latest one) at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKEzuOOEQvYM1dh7zwBejxw12TXWSpcSQ

[thisbluespirit]

Oh, good! I have seen all of them, then. Unless there are any others they forgot to add, of course... XD

[singe]

Aw, fun!

And you! Feel better quickly.

[thisbluespirit]

Best DW thing all year! Heh.

[scripsi]

I'm sorry you are feeling rotten! *hugs*

But thanks for the video! Love it!

[thisbluespirit]

Aw, thank you. And, yes, it's great - I had to run and share!

[fh14]

I hope you feel better soon! The release announcement and the trailer definitely made my day, and its almost a proof of concept for a Jo Grant spinoff in the vein of SJA. (And it was written and directed by one of the current series writers which is a neat touch.)

Have you see the announcement video for the Web of Fear episode 3 animation yet? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsG6QRSpS40

[thisbluespirit]

I'm glad everyone seems to have enjoyed the trailer as much as me! XD

I haven't looked at the animated ones, since the animated versions just give me uncanny valley unfortunately! But I shall take a peek at the trailer.

[ashlyme]

Thanks for the trailer - that was fun. Hope you're feeling better now. <3

Aw, glad to be of use in spreading some cheer!
