The First 'Doctor Who' Season 7 Trailer (VIDEO)

"Doctor Who": Matt Smith and Karen Gillan

Check out the brand new trailer for the upcoming "Doctor Who" Season 7.

Showrunner Steven Moffat and executive producer Caroline Skinner premiered the trailer on Saturday at the "Doctor Who" convention in Cardiff, Wales and it received a rapturous reception from the capacity crowd.

It contains footage from the Season 7 premiere episode, which was shot on the same sets in Almeria, Spain as the classic spaghetti western "The Good, The Bad And The Ugly."

There are guest appearances from sci fi superstar Ben Browder and Adrian Scarborough (a.k.a. Pritchard the butler in the rebooted "Upstairs Downstairs").

The trailer also boasts some serious special effects and, in a scene that looked like it could be paying affectionate homage to "The Empire Strikes Back," was that a Dalek's eye poking through the snow at the end?

Check out the "Doctor Who" Season 7 scoop direct from the convention.

Read what Matt Smith and Karen Gillan have to say about "Doctor Who" hitting the big time.

Check back for more coverage from the "Doctor Who" convention, including a Q&A with Steven Moffat and Caroline Skinner.
