My original guess was Tunisia, just for the record.

And also - about midway though the article: (See also the plans to film another of the specials in America.)
OH PLEASE!!!

I'll still try to be careful - A major item was damaged in shipping, and it was initially thought that repairs could be effected, but that was before they saw the damage. Said item had a 30' container dropped on it, and it's pretty well smashed. I'm not sure if item can be fixed/replaced, but reportedly RTD is in the midst of some major re-writes because of this incident.

And oooh, that's unfortunate. I'd advise some gentle stretches (including the hamstring area) and maybe a heating pad? Hopefully the spasms settle down soon.

Somebody BROKE THE TARDIS?

Sorry, totally leaping to conclusions there, but WTF?

Ha! It's a little known fact that IKEA!TARDIS is indestructible! *grins*

But seriously, yeah - that's a major WTF! for the persons responsible for the shipping.

Don't tell me someone dropped a shipping container on the bus from the publicity stills.
