The Doctor rarely takes a moment to pause for breath, instead lurching from crisis to crisis and never looking back. This is reflected in the pace of modern Doctor Who, which can often reach breakneck speeds. It's therefore easy to miss things when you first sit down to watch an episode.
Every episode of Doctor Who is an ensemble effort, bringing together writers, directors, actors, art directors, costume designers, VFX artists, composers, and many more to realise the weird and wonderful worlds that the TARDIS takes us to. This collaborative effort means that these other departments are working to emphasise the themes addressed in the writer's script. Whether it's a costume choice that exemplifies a character trait, or a piece of set dressing that hints at what's really going on elsewhere in the Doctor Who universe, we've travelled back through Doctor Who's timestream to identify some of the hidden design flourishes that add more depth to this wonderful show! So don't blink – these secrets may be right in plain sight, but they're still very easy to miss.
