Hey, is that the first appearance of the sonic screwdriver? It's used to... open something up.

This animated recreation seems to go beyond the scope of the original. At least, based on all the other episodes I've seen I doubt the original would've had many of the wider shots showing more landscape, big sets, etc. would've been there.

At least, based on all the other episodes I've seen I doubt the original would've had many of the wider shots showing more landscape, big sets, etc. would've been there. They also seem to have recast some of the non-speaking roles to add more diversity to the future. At least, I assume the original didn't have technicians played by a guy in a turban and an Asian woman.
