Doctor Who 5.08 - The Hungry Earth Promo Pics
These promo pics are from Doctor Who episode 5.08 The Hungry Earth. The female Silurian in the bottom picture is in shackles. Who is she a prisonner from? The humans? We'll have to wait and see.

Doctor Who - Take Your First Clear Look at the Silurians!!
These are our first clear look at the Silurians, who are making a most welcome return to Doctor Who in series 5.
They look absolutely amazing don't you think? If you look at the bottom picture, you can see that there are two kinds of Silurians. Could one be a pure bred Silurian and the other one a Silurian/human hybrid? Or could it be a question of ''class'' - for example a lower class Silurian and an ''aristocratic'' one that would explain the physical differences?
I'm also really loving the makeup and costume on the female Silurian. Now to see them in action!
What do you think of the overall look? Any opinion on why both Silurians are different? Looking forward to seeing them? Please chime in!
The Silurians Officially in Series 5 of Doctor Who
A British actress by the name of Neve McIntosh has given a long interview to the Perthshire Advertiser in which she talks about her role as a Silurian - actually as 2 Silurians since she plays twins - on Doctor Who.
She also talks about Matt Smith and says:
“I think he’s going to be really good, the best yet out of the new guys.
“The stories have got a bit darker. I play twins, and they’re big lizardwarrior women.
“They’re one of the Silurian tribes that have been undisturbed under the earth. And of course we get disturbed.
“It’s the first time I’ve worn prosthetics but I’m still recognisable if you know me well enough.
“But there’ll probably be lots of people going, ‘Who the hell is that?’”
Below is a picture of a Silurian taken while filming a while back.
This account, as well as the above picture, thus confirms the presence of the Classic Doctor Who monster that never made an appearance during the RTD era.

Could the Silurians Be Returning to Doctor Who?
Life, Doctor Who and Combom reports that the next monsters for the upcoming season 5 of Doctor Who could be the Silurians. (To read about the Silurians go here.)If thats the case, the Silurians would go the road of other classic Who monsters like the Daleks and the Cybermen and be rebooted. I'm very excited about the possibility.
Go here to read the Life, Doctor Who and Combom the report and to see some pictures.
As well, Alun.Vega has many, many pictures about the filming.
