Peter Capaldi is The Doctor! - Series 8! First Look!

The first image of Peter Capaldi filming series eight of Doctor Who has been unveiled.

The photo shows Capaldi as the new Doctor, still wearing the clothes sported by his predecessor Matt Smith, alongside his co-star Jenna Coleman (Clara Oswald).

"New job, first day, slightly nervous," Capaldi said.

"Just like the Doctor, I'm emerging from the TARDIS into a whole other world."

Lead writer and executive producer Steven Moffat added: "First the eyebrows! Then, at Christmas, the face!

"Coming soon, the whole Doctor. In the Cardiff studios, the Capaldi era begins."

Moffat has written the first episode of the series and Phil Ford the second. Both are directed by Sightseers filmmaker Ben Wheatley.
