The new era begins... First images of Peter Capaldi

The BBC have released the first images of Peter Capaldi's Twelfth Doctor,filming the opening episode penned by Steven Moffat. This and second episode, written by Phil Ford, will be the first episodes that Capaldi films. From what has been spotted from location reports, the first episode is set in Victorian London and once again features the Paternoster Gang; Madame Vastra, Jenny and Strax.

As you can see, the new Doctor hasn't yet adopted a new set of clothes to match his new persona, instead wearing Matt Smith's costume as seen in The Time of the Doctor.

This week's issue of Doctor Who Magazine features Capaldi on the cover, as well as the first interview with the actor.
