Behind the Scenes of Day of the Doctor (Part 17)
Excerpts from the Radio Times Doctor Who 50th Anniversary issue (23-29 November 2013):
[ Discussing David Tennant's déjà vu about returning to the role after 4 years away ] The eerie sense of familiarity only increases, however, when he's asked what he's allowed to tell us about this episode.
"I can't tell you a thing," he offers apologetically. "That is what I remember about Doctor Who more than anything. People want to talk to you about it more than anything else and you can say absolutely nothing."
"Or we just lie," interjects Matt Smith, who, at this point - in April - is sitting on the secret that he is about to quit the show and usher in the era of Capaldi.
"Well, to be honest, everyone thinks I've been lying furiously," replies Tennant, a touch shamefacedly, recalling earlier denials that he would appear in this episode. "I suppose I've told a couple of white lies, but until quite recently this was all a bit up in the air, so I haven't been lying quite as hard as everybody thinks.

Osgood Outfits
I got bored and did a non-exhaustive compilation of Osgood's appearances.
Osgood's appearances are notable for their references to various Doctors. This ranged from question mark shirts, bow ties and the colourful scarf.
This of course was accompanied by the lab coat, being UNIT's current scientific advisor. But this was sometimes swapped out for a brown jumper or the casual blue overalls (Big Finish).
For Osgood's comic appearances, the colours of they use for Osgood's outfits appear to swap around between the twins for the story Clara and the School of Death. But the twist on the Seventh Doctor's jumper was rather interesting as well (I speculate to save on time). Just something to note, for those particular panels, the one detailed in those panels refer to the left image.
There was also another outfit which was a hybrid between Osgood's usual lab coat and the Sixth Doctor's technicolor dream coat.
I kind of tried to get many of Osgood's appearances but because of the sheer number of Big Finish stories, I just presented a couple. What I found particularly interesting on this search, was when they gave Osgood the Third Doctor's green smoking jacket.

Hear me out: The next "Diary of River Song" release should be entitled "The Wives of River Song" and include the following stories:
1: River runs into Missy again in the midst of a museum heist. Shenanigans ensue and of course, Missy would be delighted to marry the Doctor’s wife - if just to annoy them.
2: River gets into a temporary pickle with UNIT in 21st Century Earth, dealing with two alternate timelines regarding a Royal Wedding. Why the only solution to it appears to be wedding Kate Stewart is anybody’s guess.
3: River reunites with Liv and Helen and they finally get to go “somewhere nice and relaxed” as promised at the end of “Companion Piece”. None of them had bargained for it being their honeymoon.
4: River finally meets the 13th Doctor! It’s about time! And the Doctor has a lot of questions as to why she is not her first wife! If only the meeting wasn't at the Library... (Bonus appearance by the Fugitive Doctor.)
Here is the concept art for the covers. Call me Big Finish 🤙🤓🤳

I've just had a thought about the spin off...
If Osgood is in it... We might get to see this little bean freak out on the Tardis...
Possibly twice if both Osgoods are in it 🥹
Just Kate standing there waiting patently to continue updating the doctor as she listens to Osgood scream in stereo either side of her 😂
Osgood: sorry ma' am.
Kate: No no, it's fine. It's not like the world's ending... Oh wait...
😂
