It's kind of funny really. I'm listening to the sort of 90-110 Main Range section at the moment, and a heck of a lot the guest cast from that period had previously done the New Series

Hell, that's a compelling start. Sounds as though this story is going to be waist deep in Edgar Rice Burroughs' Barsoom stories.

Hello again. There now follows a party election broadcast for the Ice Warrior Free Mars Party:
"Humans! We are looking forward to ssshowing that we are a mighty force. A proud and noble race who are getting fed up with NASA landing junk on our beautiful Martian landscape.
We do not tolerate invaders. Do not try our patience. Next weeks story will prove once and for all that Ice Warriors are Premier League monsterssss."
I have been looking forward to this all season. I really hope it will be a classic monster story. I'm not sure why I like the Ice Warriors so much. My first encounter with them was Brian Hayles's novelization of their first story picked up in a secondhand bookshop in Hay-on-Wye. This was followed by Seeds of Death on video and Curse of Peladon on audio, (recorded off the tv by a friend.)
I think its because they are from our neighbouring planet not some planet far, far away. Also, they are more multi-layered than other out and out monsters. I also enjoyed Bernice Summerfield coming along who was an Ice Warrior expert.
Let's hope Mr. Gatiss has delivered an enjoyable story with a decent ending. Fingersss crossssed.

Classic series cameo in tomorrow's episode. Rumours are Susan Foreman, either recast or Carole Anne Ford.

She was confirmed to have a role in this episode months ago but the character hasn't been revealed. Assuming that rumour is true...I'm very intrigued to see how/if they could pull off and update the design...

One of the early reviews for the episode mentions a cameo by a character from the Original Series so...

Alpha Centuari's return would be cool, although I'd prefer to see Samantha Spiro play a Time Lord/Lady. She has a very Time Lord/Lady look and it would be a shame to see her used as a mere voice role.

Come to think of it, I'm not so sure they could pull off the voice these days without it sounding a little silly, maybe another gig for Mr Briggs

In terms of design they might not have to change much other than slicken it up.
