INT – TARDIS – DAY

Jodie!Doctor closes the Tardis door and sees the new Tardis decor. There is a lot of pink, with many delicate pastel shades as highlights and gingham curtains over the Round Things. The Time Rotor has been replaced by a circular wardrobe.

I think the measured difference is equivalent to 1 second over about 80 days compared to earth orbit.
