There is apparently a mix of actual prop and model prop in this story. Ep1 (first image in the thread) shows the TARDIS with the square lamp cap (and its hemi "dome"), which I believe in another thread is IDed as a model FX shot, but Ep4 (second image in that post) shows the TARDIS (full-size prop?) still has the round lamp cap with wider, shallow dome.

In "http://tardisbuilders.com/index.php?topic=8259.0";, we see the full-size prop sporting the new square-hemi-dome lamp cap like that on the model. We also see that square cap in "http://tardisbuilders.com/index.php?topic=8255.0"; (serial N). "The Space Museum" is serial Q, and "The Chase" is serial R, and it looks like the lamp cap alternates between the stories, and then in "http://tardisbuilders.com/index.php?topic=8265.0"; (serial V) we're back to the round shallow-dome cap. (I know we don't have any images from serial P ("The Crusade") up yet - no serial O listed that I can find - and that recording blocks don't always follow which story will air first, but this would be a nice detail about the full-size prop to know about: when the lamp cap made the final change from round to square.) So when would it be safe to say this change occurred to the full-size prop?

Sorry if this has been discussed before - and I forgot it - but seeing all of these great images literally flooding in, so it is so easy to see the progression almost side-by-side, really makes details like this jump out at you.
