The Doctor Who Thread oooooeeeeeooooooo ooooooeeeeeeoooooooo! wa wa waaaaa etc

[StorminNorman]

I love how it's impossible for the Daleks to say something without it sounding like a death threat.

WOULD YOU LIKE SOME TEA?

[Theiffy]

On the train this morning I saw that someone had graffitied "MATT SMITH IS A FAGET" (with that spelling) on a fence.

Not sure if it was about someone else called Matt Smith or just a David Tennant fan .




As for the 3rd episode I have mixed feelings


It seemed more like "Victory of the Dalek New Release Toys".
The new look is a little silly and will take some adjustment but I think the episode could have benefited from being a 2 parter and skipping the "Stop the bomb with love!" bit

Maybe I had preset my standards to high because it was a Dalek episode.


lol heaps of people are called matt smith, like my very first boyfriend, which is whom they were talking about (obviously!) :P

Yes, I would like some torrents.

It's so true! I really should make that my mobile's message tone.

trailer

Looks cheesy, but you never know if that's a good thing or a bad thing with Who.

Well... except for Gogo Dalek Rangers. The episode felt like it should be animated and thrown in a childrens timeslot on the ABC. Still, looking forward to the new episode tomorrow.

[TrinityJayOne]

Cliffhanger :( FML.

[Stevorooni]

Damn creepy episode though

[Araenel]

The angels or the one on ABC last night?

People need to clarify with this crazy overlap!

(but the angels were creepy ;_;)

[JimmyKane]

Star whale thing was just awkward. I like the new Doctor/Companion.

[Theiffy]

awesome episode! i loved the planet they landed on. damn cliffhangers ;_;

omfg! i wanna see it ;_;

Angels, they were creepy as hell in that Blink episode and they're extra creepy in this new one.

[TrinityJayOne]

Star whale thing was just awkward. I like the new Doctor/Companion.
Yes, I will now readily admit that I approve of the new Doctor. He's quirky like Tennant, but a bit sillier too (eg- jammie dodger). My only beef is that the writers have him trying to be tough on occasion (telling off the big eye thing at end of ep1, now his holding-a-gun monologue), but rather than tough he just sounds lame. Imo only Eccleston could pull it off, he was a very-rough-around-the-edges Doctor.

[JimmyKane]

I thought when he shouted at Amy and the Queen at the end of Star Whale thing he was alright.

[TrinityJayOne]

Has there been a delay in the tea shipment? I'm positive I was making tea much earlier than this last week. My usual kettle seems only to have last week's tea.

[StorminNorman]

Yeah, there seems to be some kind of tea shortage at the moment.

[TrinityJayOne]

Well that was bloody odd, but I got it now. Great ep!

EDIT: Sorry, great tea. >_>

<_<

[StorminNorman]

Boiling my tea as we speak! ;)

[JimmyKane]

I'm wanking too!

[JimmyKane]

That was what you guys meant by the euphemisms right

[Lazlow]

So I caught my first new doctor who tonight; he's channeling David Tennant too much for my liking, but it is only Ep2 I guess.

I just feels like a new actor playing the same doctor, rather than seeing a whole new doctor. His mannerisms, desperation, whimsical nature, and pained anger are all pretty much the same as when Tennant filled the roll.

[TSplodey]

I can definately see some David Tennant in him, although I think hes a lot cockier and self assured than Tennant. Perhaps pushier too.

Pond is an enjoyable sidekick so far. Was a good touch at the end of Ep3 when she saw that Churchill took the TARDIS key from the Doctors pocket.

[aubergine]

F--cking Churchill, owes me money.

[Stevorooni]

Even after a second viewing I am still unsure on the new Teletubby Daleks

As for the other episode, those stone angels are still creepy as hell and now there's a whole new bunch of unanswered questions.

According to somewhere on the BBC website that you'll have to locate yourself, the colors indicate rank/role within the Dalek community.

[JimmyKane]

Notably, the white one is the leader.

[TSplodey]

When I saw their new eyestalk design I thought they might see in colour, guess its too classic to change that.

[StorminNorman]

The Weeping Angels are the first monster of the new series that has that genuine behind-the-sofa terror of classic Who monsters. They're awesome.

[TrinityJayOne]

So the latest ep was great, really enjoyable. My only complaint was that it felt a bit disjointed from the whole "OMG crack!" arc. Also, Mr Droopy-eye may be the ugliest person to ever grace the screen. Seriously, did he have an unfortunate accident with a rapidly moving frying pan as a child?

[StorminNorman]

It felt a bit like the First Doctor story "Inside The Spaceship", with maybe a dash of "Trial of a Timelord" thrown in for good measure.

Interesting combination, for sure. I'm noticing a trend of really old and somewhat obscure Doctor Who references popping up in the current season.

That might be because the guy running the show now is an uber Doctor Who geek

[TrinityJayOne]

****ing two-parters.

[JimmyKane]

Vampires were OK I guess.

Next week looks cool though. Hopefully some creepy mind ****s ala Rose appearing on TVs in the background.

[StorminNorman]

It's true...

Was I the only one reminded of the Jon Pertwee story "Inferno" while watching this week's episode? Also, great to see another classic Who monster updated for the new series.

First Episode of Doctor Who Game Now Available For Free Download (http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/dw/theadventuregames)

If you live in the UK that is. Outside of UK you will have to pay for it at a later date when they release it to the rest of the world.

Or you can have it now if you 'move' to the UK

[big_b]

Latest episode was pretty good. The ending was pretty powerful.

[Stevorooni]

Well that was the mother of all cliffhangers

[TrinityJayOne]

Yeah, but what a ****ing awesome twist.

[Theiffy]

i hate cliffhangers omfg :(

[AranchineD]

I'll bet by the end of next episode though the Doctor will escape, trick all his enemies into letting him stop the big universe destroying thing, and all will be end well.

Someone please tell me how accurate I am because I haven't watched this season at all.

[Serenity]

I can't even read this thread. I missed last week due to work, I'll miss this week due to work and I'll likely miss next week due to work. I can't find anyone to tape it for me. So f*** it, I'm not watching, not reading, I've missed too much now. I won't even get a chance to watch it till I'm in Perth. Breaks my heart, it's the only show I want to watch all week.

[aubergine]

I miss every single episode then watch it on abc iview, which is free and brilliant etc. Watched last weeks just earlier and will hopefully remember to watch it tonight.

[Serenity]

Um, uno problemo.

Dialup.

[aubergine]

Dialup? They still have that?

you don't deserve nice things

[Silverwolf]

you don't deserve nice things

Ouch aub, cut me deep.

[big_b]

So cannot wait until next wait until next week

Whats the go with Rory being a robot!?

All the robots were just a creation of Amy's mind. Rory is/was in her mind (at the time the alien guys borrowed her memories). So it's not actually Rory. Even his personality is just created from what Amy knows/knew.

[Stevorooni]

If only we had some sort of spoiler tags built into the forums :(

[StorminNorman]

Loved the first part of the finale. Really looking forward to next week's episode.

[big_b]

Lol, Ive never been bothered to look into how to do the spoiler tag. My knowledge of the internet only goes so far as posting pictures and youtube videos.

[aubergine]

[ spoiler ] [ /spoiler ]

[big_b]

looks like a winner to me.

[Silverwolf]

I was thinking today that the end of the last episode would be an absolutely brilliant way to end an actor's role as the doctor and introduce a new one.

Well we can always hope.

[Stevorooni]

Too bad he's contracted for 3 seasons minimum

The whole season has been up and down for me and he's taken a bit of getting used to (when I'm still getting over David Tennant :( ) but it looks like all the storylines are now coming together

[JimmyKane]

I like that Matt Smith's Doctor tends to be an arrogant dick.

[Silverwolf]

I like that Matt Smith's Doctor tends to be an arrogant dick.

I think he needs to be a bit more of a dick, he keeps wavering in his dickhead resolve.

[JimmyKane]

I just watched the Van Gogh episode and that is quite true.

[Stevorooni]

Season Finale was absolutely awesome.

[TrinityJayOne]

Oh thanks, almost forgot about the kettle!

[TrinityJayOne]

Season Finale was absolutely awesome.
What he said. Quite possibly the greatest finale of the show yet.

[StorminNorman]

Yeah, it was brilliant. I love Amy Pond.

[big_b]

Epic ending. Cant wait for the xmas special and for the next season to start.

[Stevorooni]

I love Steven Moffat's story style with his little time loops and things happening out of order.

[StorminNorman]

Yeah. He's one of the few Doctor Who writers who fully understands the potential of time travel in a story.

[Lazlow]

Adventure Gamers review of BBC's Doctor Who game (http://www.adventuregamers.com/article/id,1191)

A predictable result really.

[Stevorooni]

I've tried the game. Storyline is ok, gameplay is average.

They need an episode where you can explore the TARDIS

EDIT

ZOMG the third episode is set inside the TARDIS and you can explore it!

[Stevorooni]

The new Doctor Who Christmas Special is on tonight, fast tracked from the UK, 7:30pm ABC1

[aubergine]

I travelled forward in time to watch it and it was terrific.

[big_b]

Was a brilliant xmas special. Was not what I was expecting at all! Top Stuff.

[Cicada]

Thought the flying fog fish that are exactly the same as actual fish were a bit lame, but it was a great episode overall. Matt Smith's Doctor has so many fantastic lines!

The preview for next season has also caused unreasonable levels of hype within me. Cowboy episode!

[Lazlow]

a bit lame

Well it's Doctor Who afterall.

Amen! Next season looks to be a real cracker.

[aubergine]

For those without pirate-o-vision season 6 starts Saturday night, 7:30.
