BBC.co.uk gets animated over Doctor Who
The homepage got all animated today in anticipation of the forthcoming series of Doctor Who - promoting the teaser trailer that is now available online.

Hmm, don't really like animations, but this one is quite nice. Although I thought the tardis flashed, not revolved?
They should stop the animation after a couple of cycles though.
