Jenna Coleman was seen emerging from the TARDIS before an emotional embrace with Peter Capaldi during Doctor Who filming in Cardiff this afternoon (January 28).
Coleman's Clara Oswald, who was wearing a navy blue cardigan and short tartan skirt, was pictured stepping out of the Doctor's trusty blue box before hugging the Time Lord.
Hinting at the dynamic between the duo, Capaldi's Doctor can be seen responding to Clara's hug by awkwardly flailing his arms and then clenching his fists.
Meanwhile, the Doctor was sporting his new "Rebel Time Lord look" first unveiled yesterday - a dark blue Crombie coat with red lining, dark blue trousers, a white shirt and black Dr Martens boots.
Capaldi, who replaced Matt Smith as the BBC drama's lead star at Christmas, was later photographed taking a break and warming up in a long duffel coat before having his hair and make-up retouched.
Speaking about Capaldi taking over from Smith, Coleman said at the recent National Television Awards: "[Peter is] great - of course, we all know he's going to be wonderful.
