Doctor Who fans unite — the BBC has released the first photo of Peter Capaldi’s costume for the upcoming season of Doctor Who,  where he will play the Twelfth Doctor.

The BBC released the photo, along with the following press release:

The Doctor has a new look as Peter Capaldi’s era officially begins.  In a picture released today by the BBC, Capaldi can be seen in the costume that will define his time as the Twelfth Time Lord in one of TV’s biggest roles.  Sporting a dark blue Crombie coat with red lining, dark blue trousers, a white shirt as well as black Dr. Marten shoes, the look was created by Doctor Who costume designer Howard Burden.

Commenting on his costume, Peter Capaldi said: “He’s woven the future from the cloth of the past. Simple, stark, and back to basics. No frills, no scarf, no messing, just 100 per cent Rebel Time Lord.”  While lead writer and executive producer Steven Moffat added: “New Doctor, new era, and of course new clothes. Monsters of the universe, the vacation is over – Capaldi is suited and booted and coming to get you!”

Filming for episode one of series 8 began earlier this month, after 10.2 million tuned-in on Christmas Day to get their first much-anticipated glimpse of Capaldi’s Doctor.  Charlotte Moore, Controller of BBC One, commented: “Peter Capaldi’s Doctor is officially recorded in history today with the unveiling of his new costume.  It’s sharp, smart and stylish – The Twelfth Time Lord means business.”

Jonah Hill was “surprised” by Leonardo DiCaprio during a monologue on Saturday Night Live.

Hill stared pining on DiCaprio with this bit…

The truth is Leo wasn’t even supposed to be in the movie. Here’s what happened: I call up Marty Scorsese. I say, “Marty, it’s JH. I’m ready to get in a room together.” He says, “Finally.” Then I say, “Should we get DiCaprio on board?” And Marty says, “I don’t know if he can handle it. Sure, he’s a movie star and he puts teenaged girls in the seats, but we need a real actor like you.”

At which point Hill was joined by DiCaprio in the most SNL of ways.

And then it turned to Titanic.

So what did you think? Enjoy it? Hate it? Typical SNL? Sound off below!

Last year the two were reportedly dating and it appears they have gotten back together even as Upton’s handlers have tried to dey reports. Some wonder if the two ever were separated at all.

Good for them. Of course the bigger question for Verlander seems to be whether or not he will be ready for the start of the baseball season.

Verlander had a respectable 2013 season going 13-12 with a 3.46 ERA and 1.32 WHIP but those numbers were overshadowed by teammate Max Scherzer winning the AL Cy Young. Upton, well… she’s Kate Upton.
