Yes! I was just coming to squee over that! Man, I hope she doesn't get killed off.
...I'm totally going to find myself writing Ellen/Dean, or maybe Ellen/Sam.
I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

SPN casting calls are looking for a character named Raphael. An archangel, maybe?
Also a 12-stepping waitress for Sam.
Love Ellen. LOVE Ellen!
I am so excited for this season!

Art Crawl!!!
Oh, yeah. Raphael - in episode 3. Sera Gamble gave an interview where she said there would be archangels.

First picture from the set of the next series of Doctor Who, which has begun shooting in Wales.
Glad to see they appear to have done something to tone down The Hair.
ETA: here is the story on the BBC site:

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ha. The BBC links to a gallery of Doctor looks throughout the years and 9's caption says "at last it was possible to dress like the Doctor and plausibly pass it off as coincidence."
Very relieved about the Hair, but they look like they're 12. I'm getting old.

I had exactly the same thought, ita. Despite the bow tie for instant gravitas.

Serial to link to a Guardian commentary on the picture:
(And you know things must be getting serious when there are entire blog articles about a single photograph).
Some hilarious speculation - and an actual spoiler - in the comments. Timey-wimey indeed.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I wish I was more enthusiastic about the new Doctor, but I think his youth is affecting me as well.

I can't get past how horse-face he is, and the costume (mostly the rolled pant cuffs), but I'm sure I wouldn't have been keen on pics of CE or DT if I hadn't just started watching the show cold. Big ears, rat faced... horse faced...

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, I didn't think I'd be able to deal with Tennant, either, for different reasons obviously. And there was that whole period where I insisted I wasn't infatuated with Cap'n Jack. So given that the franchise appears to have me, for better and for worse, I probably will adore the young'un shortly, as soon as he becomes the good Doctor. It has Moffat going for it at any rate.
But yeah, young.
