7. Sontarans Charging Into Battle... Sontar-Ha!

Easily the best shot in the trailer is this overhead view of an epic battle. It's difficult to make out in that image, but yep, that's a Sontaran army on the right-hand side!

This is on a scale the likes of which we rarely see in Doctor Who, and assuming that it's a full scene rather than a quick montage, this has the potential to be the best Sontaran sequence in the entire history of the show. We've seen the Sontarans fight, sure, but in a massive skirmish like this? This is exciting new territory.

Presumably, we're looking at another scene from the Crimean War episode here, and those pint-sized potato-heads will be doing what they do best: perverting the course of human history!

He has been writing and video editing for 10+ years, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers and uploading them to YouTube (they're admittedly a bit rusty by today's standards). If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order or to tell you about the making of 1988's Remembrance of the Daleks, Danny is the person to ask.
