New Doctor Who Logo: The Starstore Verdict
Pretty much everyone here is a huge fan of Doctor Who. Some of us prefer the new era, some of us are of more of an old-school kick. This is why the latest series, (series 5 to some, series 1 to others, series 31 to yet others) is getting to be so interesting. The new Doctor Who logo, as you see, melds the past with the future very well.
That’s the whole feel we’re getting from the new Doctor Who series so far. With the look of the eleventh Doctor, the refurbished TARDIS exterior, the new version of the console room and now this new logo, it feels like Doctor Who is finally settling into the right combination of the classic era and the new one.
While simple, this new logo is much more in keeping with the classic logos of the Patrick Troughton era and the Paul McGann TV movie. The blue glow and sheen to the logo suggests a new title sequence entirely, which is most welcome after four series and many specials of essentially the same thing.
Here’s hoping this is accompanied by a new arrangement of the theme tune, the previous incarnation of which has long since been an issue for some fans.
