HERE'S Doctor Who David Tennant — in the first scenes for his new role.
The Time Lord clutches the hand of assistant Rose Tyler, played by Billie Piper, as they film on a South London council estate.
And the pair have already travelled in time — this is the CHRISTMAS special.
The Tardis was sprinkled in fake snow while a trio of killer zombie Santas added to the chilling plotline. David, 33, donned a natty pinstripe suit for one scene with Billie, 22 — before changing into a leather jacket.
As The Sun has revealed, Xmas becomes a time of terror in the hit BBC1 show. Mankind is threatened by alien Sycorax in the one-off, followed by the second series to be screened in Spring. Casanova star David — the tenth Doctor — must save the planet. But in one scene he and Rose run off.
Surely he hasn't become Doctor Flew.
