Doctor Who Series 9 New Trailer: 12 Things We Learned

9. Snakes On A Spaceship

We've had dinosaurs on a spaceship. There's going to be vikings on a spaceship. Basically Moffat just likes finding ways to put unexpected creatures onto a spaceship, and there's going to be another example of that in series 9. Apart from the vikings, we're also going to be getting this big ol' serpentine-slash-dragon type creature, which looks as though it's ready to cause all manner of chaos. It looks pretty decent, especially when you consider the show's budget and some of the wonky effects work that they've had in the past, and on the whole this series is shaping up to be fairly solid in that area. As for that monster, we don't get a lot of clues as to what exactly it's up to, but it doesn't look particularly friendly. Rumour has it that Capaldi has had it with the motherfu**ing snakes on this motherfu**ing spaceship.
