Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today’s Behind the Scenes Pic!

Now, I’ve never seen one episode of Dr. Who. I know, bad geek form. Sorry to be so stereotypically American… I’m familiar with the iconography of the show from clips, previews, toys, model kits, etc, but haven’t made the plunge. I am aware of the crazy huge fanbase the show has, though, so lest you think I’d deprive you good Whovian constant readers of a sweet Dr. Who BTS pic just because of my ignorance today we take a look at that series.

Today’s image comes from a book called BBC VFX: The Story of the BBC Visual Effects Department which can be purchased from the UK here and features effects man Ian Scoones setting up a shot of the Tardis traveling through space.

Maybe this is a good spot to get advice on where I should start… The new series, starting in 2005, is on Netflix Instant… should I start there or try to seek out the old school series? We’re talking probably years worth of watching if I do that. Anyway, I’m open to suggestions.

Thanks to Chris McAleese for sending this one along. Click to (slightly) embiggen!

If you have a behind the scenes shot you’d like to submit to this column, you can email me at quint@aintitcool.com.

Tomorrow’s behind the scenes pic will make a certain infamous talkbacker really happy.
