Before we begin delving into the meaning behind the Christmas poster, let me share a few things I have learned so far:
Christmas title, picture and synopsis
Steven Moffat rewrites the numbering system
Day of the Doctor wins Twitter wars
Now back to the poster for "Time of the Doctor". I like the references to The Eleventh Hour by having the clock strike twelve and for the title to refer both to Time Lords and to the time theme we have seen throughout Matt's tenure.
The decapitated Cyberman and three Silence aliens intrigues me as it seems like they might have a stronger focus rather than the weeping angels and daleks. The Christmas tree and lights appear to be normal holiday fare, but it does remind me of when we saw the flying fish and had one of our saddest Christmas specials with the Doctor flying into the past, present and future. I have a gutted feeling that we will see Matt fall from the bell tower. Not only does the bell have an ominous tone, but there are only two options you can do with the prophecy. You can either make him fall as a tragic hero or you can make him literally fall towards the ground. I really hope they don't turn him into a tragic hero.
What are your thoughts?
