Some clips--and Ben's voice!


A "first look"-type short features some bits and pieces of the clips that were screened for previewers a couple weeks ago--mainly, Mr. Gruber's shop, the chasing-after-a-pickpocket scene and the cafe scene.

Looks (and sounds) quite good! I like what I hear of Ben's voice, and as much as I like Colin Firth, I think I agree now that his voice wouldn't have had the innocent quality Ben's does. I like the way Jim Broadbent's Mr. Gruber looks, and the overall look of London in general. (Please, bring on some clips of the Twelfth Doctor as Mr. Curry already!)

And that bit of Paddington being blown away on an umbrella during the chase scene--there's no WAY that isn't a deliberate homage to Mary Poppins.
