BBC announces 'Doctor Who' trailer debut
Published Tuesday, Mar 18 2008, 09:42 GMT | By Ben Rawson-Jones
The BBC announced the premiere on the show's official website, although the launch date for the upcoming fourth season has yet to be confirmed. The trailer has previously been seen in UK cinemas, screening before films such as Cloverfield.
The 90-second trailer heavily features returning companion Donna Noble, played by Catherine Tate, along with glimpses of both Freema Agyeman and Billie Piper reprising their roles as Martha Jones and Rose Tyler respectively. In addition, there are shots of returning monsters The Ood and the warmongering Sontarans.
In December, a similar marketing strategy was adopted by the BBC when it promoted the Doctor Who Christmas special 'The Voyage Of The Damned' on the big screen, followed by an airing on television.
