A number of the video screens seen in the show are practical, in that the film on the screen was actually being played back on the screen as the actors in the foreground looked on. Since 2005, however, Doctor Who has relied less on practical effects and more on post-production help from The Mill. A practical effect is usually considered the antonym of a "visual effect".
