London is getting pretty excited about the anticipated arrival of Doctor Who season 10. As you can see in the photo above the Tardis as well as its occupants have officially touched down. On Wednesday, Peter Capaldi and his new companion Pearl Mackie appeared at the Southbank to pose next to some pavement art that’s quite extraordinary. The art looks like a crack in the pavement that reveals an entire world of hints and clues about the upcoming season.
As far as marketing stunts go, you’ve got to hand it to the BBC. This one is pretty cool. The official Doctor Who Twitter account was on hand to share some photos and videos from the event. They took full advantage of the quality of the art as well as excitement of onlookers. The painting was created over 10 days by 3D artist Joe Hill. Here’s a short video of Hill and writer Steven Moffat explaining how they came up with it.
From the sounds of it their choice of monsters may provide a clue as to what we can expect from the coming Season. Only time will tell. Have a look at pics and some video below.
