::In general, though, I agree with Ghastly that we should be putting some kind of video up on every story for which the BBC/BBCA give us something.  We're really not leveraging the huge number of clips that are fully allowable under our [[tardis:video policy|video policy]] which would enliven our pages.  Stylistically, I don't think it should be directly under the infobox still, but rather should consistently be in the infobox at the bottom.  Our infobox doesn't particularly allow it now, but the infoboxen are getting a makeover soon, and I'll probably build in a video "cupboard" when the makeover happens. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''21:40:55 Sun&nbsp;'''15 May 2011&nbsp;</span>

:::I dig the idea of including more video, and I do like the idea of using the "next time" trailers as a matter of course.  I have fond memories of a ''Star Trek TNG'' episode guide CD-Rom from the 1990s which included their "next time" trailers within the episode entries, and they were neat additions to the entries even long after their broadcast.  They'd only be ''possibly'' spoilery for the 6 days, but readers looking to avoid that level of spoiling would probably already be avoiding the episode's article before broadcast.
