Between the World Cup and Wimbledon - great times to show it.

It's also a bit strange to start BBC's flagship sci-fi show in August when September/October is when all new autumn drama shows begin. Can't fathom out why August is the best time!
Anyway, looking forward to it. I'll miss Matt Smith but the Doctor Who ship never stops sailing. Onwards!”

'Am I Good Man' makes grammatical sense if 'good man' functions as a compound definite noun (as with 'Black Rod') rather than an adjective + indefinite noun.
I think it's interesting and will be leaving my case open for now.”

Perhaps there is a scene where the Doctor and Clara come acrosss someones' written tribute to the Doctor. Here is my over complicated mind fart about a potential idea of what will happen in deep breath, imagined from only one trailer, so this is complete randomness, spoiler tags in case someone has been living a totally spoiler free life
Spoiler
actually, I just think its a typo somewhere
"Clara be a pal and tell me... am I good man" He doesn't say the letter "a" between the I and the good.
It's been really annoying me that it's labelled on YouTube and iPlayer as "Am I a goodman" when there should be no "a".
He is still asking the same thing like how the 9th Doctor occasionally spoke, I recall a line to Rose Tyler
"What you do that for" as opposed to "What did you do that for?"
Almost primitive/baby talk.
Also after seeing the post above this confirms there never was meant to be an "a".

It's the accent. What he said was "What d'you do that for?" as in "what do you do that for?" in answer to Rose's "I live here".
I'm pretty sure it's either the cutting of the clip, as it does sound slightly disjointed after "be my pal", or possibly an accent thing. Being from the Glasgow area myself, Capaldi's voice doesn't sound out of place for saying "am I a good man".
There also appears to be a thing for saying "am a..." instead of "am I a..." in Scottish accents I notice sometimes

Will see when the episode airs
but if you have speakers turn them all the way up... no "a" the BBC wouldn't put a incomplete trailer out for it's flagship show 
A post above references that during the episode the Doctor talks about a little girls letter that calls him "Good Man" which is why he asks "Am I good man?" rather than Am I a good man.

It really is baffling isn't it? Cannot believe its even under discussion. Its Am I A Good Man? Nothing else makes sense logically or grammatically or dramatically.

That thing about the letter was completely made up speculation by the poster to explain why it could be 'am I good man'. Nothing to do with the episode or rather known facts about it.
Nice little teaser. Love the shots of Capaldi and Coleman in it.
The cast pic is nice. They've lightened up the TARDIS interior as well.
Deep Breath is a great title for the first episode.
Can it be August 23rd now?

Bloody hell - he so obviously says A in that sentence - Am I a good man is what he says! quite frankly if anyone actually thinks there is no A in there, they are either deaf or not listening properly.

The official BBC YouTube video is entitled 'Am I a good man?'
Case closed not that it should ever have been open.”

Unless the line before has the Doctor saying 'In my experience you can either be 'good man' or 'bad man'. ......
You just do not hear the quotes around the phrase.

Exactly! I realise the audio isn't super clear...but then why should it be? This isn't sesame street. Its a trailer and as such was slightly stylised. Just because you cant hear the A doesn't mean it isn't there or supposed to be. But in embarrassed to even be caught up in this debate. Its why Doctor Who fans get a bad name.
Its 'am i a good man?' and that's that. Now lets just enjoy the promo eh?

So you are complaining about getting caught up in a debate whilst you are encouraging more people to comment on this when you make comments like the ones you made in the first line.
Making something harder to hear does not make something intellectually difficult, it is just annoying. You didn't hear people say "thank you BBC for showing Jamaica Inn because it was difficult to hear the first episode and one of the characters".
Ok so why did the official BBC Doctor Who Facebook page post say "Am I good man…?” This was two days ago, if it was a typo they've had plenty of time to change it!

The same quote is also on the doctor who.tv website (BBC worldwide doctor who website) and it is highlighted as well.

and why is the actual trailer called "Am I a good man?" in quotations?
Carry on.
