Default Dr Who returns with 1979 technology.

Apologies if this is a bit off-piste.
Tom Baker is to return as The Doctor in a previously unfinished story originally semi-filmed in the 70's. Original scenes (shot but never finished due to a strike) will be combined with animation and newly shot footage featuring Tom Baker.

And to truly get the look of the scene right Norton used all sorts of authentic filming techniques from the period, while also digging out a recreation of Baker’s Tardis previously on display in the now-closed Doctor Who Experience to serve as their set.

“It was shot with 1979 tube cameras,” he went on. “We were working in a television studio as opposed to a film stage, so we could get the lighting right. We had a very good lighting guy who had actually worked on Doctor Who in the 70s and 80s.

I'm not a fan of Dr Who (well, not since I was in my teens), but I'll look out for this to see if they have captured that 70's video look.
