I don't know if anyone else has been wondering why Big Finish have been using obviously photoshopped pictures of the younger Eighth Doctor on their covers of late but I've discovered the reason: though I don't know the ins and out apparently due to rights issues BF are no longer allowed to use images from the TVM (despite having done so for nearly twenty years previously) and have to photoshop other Paul pics instead, with varying results.

Naturally, me being me, once I knew this I had to go looking for matches, didn't I? Of course I did.

First we have very obvious photos from the Dark Eyes shoot, which often results in TVM Eight with stubble; not a great look.

From the cover of Lucie Miller:

and Doom's Day (whatever that is; I have no idea):

Incidentally, this one may have been used again, but this time mirrored and much more heavily photoshopped, on the just-announced Sontarans vs Rutans series:

Then there's the face taken from a bts photo dating back to the recording of Storm Warning that was spotted a little while ago on the cover of next month's In The Bleak Midwinter by @know-it-all-freak :

And the Night of the Doctor shot that has apparently just had the collar and cravat changed for Classic Doctors: New Monsters Volume Three:

I can't find an exact match for this one from Charlotte Pollard: The Further Adventuress but it looks similar to one used on the cover of Dark Eyes 4 so may also originate from that shoot:

The last couple, from Audacity and The End of the Beginning respectively, are stumping me at the moment, but I'm sure BF are probably sitting on quite a few photos they've accumulated over the years and never released. If anyone else recognises them (or the one above) feel free to jump in!

Hold up...

I realized a couple of months ago that the TV Movie air dates fall on the EXACT day that it originally premiered on this year:

Tuesday, May 14, 1996

Tuesday, May 14, 2024

Monday, May 27, 1996

Monday, May 27, 2024

This actually just makes me so happy

Someone remind me to put on my glasses before I start tumblring this is the second time I have almost reblogged a picture of Princess Leia to my doctor who blog because I thought it was a picture of the Eighth Doctor

"eight years ago, when i was an elementary school student, i got a new bike and got carried away, riding too far. i fell down, the chain came off, i couldn't fix it myself and, it was already getting dark. i thought about my parents getting mad at me for not telling them i was going so far away and i got so anxious that i cried alone."
