Oh, so it isn't just me being dumb. That's reassuring, thanks.

But, in the glamour shots the fault wall has 4 panels and 4 suspended lights and another take on the old fault wall behind it... two completely different fault room sections.


The forth panel of the fault locator is present, it's just rarely seen fully due to the camera angles.  You can see part of the forth panel's overhead light to the left of the edge of the rotor's "flag"/above Jodie's hair.

Yes, we can see that the chameleon arch is hanging down in front of the second-from-the-right panel in some shots, and in other shots we see that there are two further panels to the left of this, making for a total of four.

in total if you count up the number of different walls we see in both the screenshots and the glamour shots we have too many walls for a six sided hexagonal room as laid out on the floor.
A final detail to notice is that the console in the glamour shots is facing a different rotational angle the the screen shots, telling us the room was reconfigured between the glamour shots and actual filming....


I'm not convinced that there are more than six walls. We already know that the ceiling unit was definitely modified at some point - the version we see on screen and in some of the publicity shots has the central concentric rings more recessed and is missing the mesh collar. The version we see in this publicity shot matches what we see in the episode:

However, you're right in that there is something very odd about the fault locator/downlighter section in some of the publicity shots. It's generally floodlit in them so it's difficult to make out any details, but messing with the levels in Photoshop gave me this:

The gold structures are missing and there are some sort of "hanging discs" below the lights! You can clearly see the cables holding them up. (These look very 60s to me.) They're only in the shots with the mesh ceiling unit; the screen-accurate ones, like the one above, still show the gold structures and are not as brightly lit.


Re: the console being in different orientations - again, in the publicity shots with the screen-accurate fault locator and ceiling unit the console appears to be correctly oriented. In others it has apparently been turned 180°. Given that we know the Brachacki console was deliberately designed with "hero" sides that look better on camera this might just have been done for the aesthetics of the photos.

It's going to be interesting to see if/when this set turns up again whether it looks the same as in "Fugitive of the Judoon" or whether it's been modified. That would also help set up a timeline for when those changes were made and when different publicity shots were taken.

I don't think there are more than six walls ... but I don't think your arrangement is quite right, Vale.

Let me explain by  taking a clockwise sweep through the different walls using images from the episode:

F1.jpg

Here we have

1 Downlighter assembly section

2 AAISAT door wall
Notice at that at least one of the doors is partially open.

3 Hexagonal graphics wall

No disagreement so far.

So next to the hex graphics is

F2.jpg

4 Inner doorway

This is where I begin to diverge from your arrangement, Vale. Next to the inner doorway is ...

F3.jpg

I know it's dark ... but it looks like there's another wall of hex graphics ... Which must be this ...

F4.jpg

5 Hexagonal graphics wall 2

and that is next to

6 TUAT door wall
Notice the hinges clearly visible

And from the door wall

F5.jpg

we're back to the downlighter assembly.

I think this arrangement account for all the images that have been posted so far ... but I'm ready to be proved wrong ...

Vale

So there are two exterior doors!? The more I think about this set the less sense it makes :o

Angelus Lupus

There's the theory that the other set of doors leads to the rest of the Tardis interior.
A mixed-up non-conformist, trying to fit in.

Vale

Surely that's what the open doorway with the corridor behind is for?

fivefingeredstyre

Its probably more a case of the other doorway being the only piece of wall they had in stock big enough to fill that section of the room plan :D

Angelus Lupus

Yeah, probably. But since when did real-world production answers stop fans inventing wild theories to fit things into canon?  ;D

Interesting difference in the ceiling central arrangement between these two pictures - the reveal of the mesh surround with what looks like plates that separate it from the main inner ring.

Capture.JPG

It looks like they hadn't finished it before taking the left picture. If you count the inner rings, the meshed one is the outer layer.. unless I've lost the ability to count.

Slight spoilers from tonights ep. But this whole threat is a spoiler zone so ima quick chat. It seems to be sep photos taken from different filming times. The mesh version seems to be the new "default" console room while the one without is Ruths' console room. Also able to be shown the difference via the new doorway and array room things.

I literally came here to say something similar. I wonder if the mesh version shot earlier than the Ruth sequences? Or the BBC were / weren't very clever and dropped the finale version of the interior in amongst the Ruth photos.

Anyone able to get any pics/ leaks of the doorway from the other console room?
