I made four new "Doctor Who" (Peter Capaldi) icons!

These are my na'arts for today, for naarmamo.



They're snagged from the 2009 BBC4 documentary A Portrait of Scotland, which someone uploaded to YouTube, last year, in the wake of the announcement that Capaldi would be the next Doctor. ...Most clips of him that went up were of his portrayal of Malcolm Tucker, being sweary and angry. But I doubted that would give any clue to how he'd approach his new role. This, however... He just oozed "Doctor" energy through the screen, especially since he also seems to have written the script for this documentary-- it's also something of a memoir of his time as a fine art student in the 1970s.

Here's the link to the whole thing (90 minutes) on YouTube.

That second one looks so much like he's standing in front of a blue screen, with the background to be added later, that I felt obliged to do something about it.

LOL! He's standing in front of the original Blue Screen of Planet Earth -- the sky. ;-)

But I like your sci-fi mod. *nods*

[spiralsheep]

Ahahahaha, yes!

Thank you for the documentary link. I haven't had time to watch it yet but it's on my list.

DOCTOR WHO LATER!

DOCTOR WHO LATER!

EEEEeeeeEEEEeeee! [/squee]

And you're welcome. I'm surprised the Beeb hasn't rebroadcast it, in the build-up to Capaldi's impending new cultural prominence. ... Maybe BBC's history wing is walled off from their fiction wing? If so, that is highly ironic (Dramatic, not situational), given the ethos of the fiction in question.

Predictably, my naart for today involved capping images of tiny!Dalek invading the cinema up a long flight of steps in ironic homage to the famous image of the Cybermen from The Invasion and my obsession with retconned Dalek high-tech powers of ascension. /mixed visual metaphors

I still don't have a telly and have no idea what's on unless my flist fan it, heh.

I don't have a (working) television, either -- or rather, there's a digital television, just no antenna to pull in the digital signals. So I get all my video entertainment through the Internets.

But I'm with you on the f'list fandom...
