    Lenticular back cover for Light at the End that looks just a little shoddy:

    I like it more than I like the price of the confirmed-today vinyl edition. Hell, I didn't even think the special edition CD sounded worth it.

    (Hmm.... old-costume McGann, I see)

    Oddly enough, there is no image displayed in your post for me. But I'd already seen it. It looks like everyone broke their necks or something. I assume they're using old 8 because Charlie is in it.

    Here's another version of the image in case it's a region thing.

    It seems to be a bit of an odd problem where it only works in some browsers for me, so I've reuploaded it to Dropbox and it can now be seen above in any browser for me.

    Amazon are selling a patently-pirated, clearly-not-the-real-thing Dr Who print with the signatures of every single Doctor.

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/ELEVEN-DOCTORS-SIGNED-PHOTOGRAPH-DOCTOR/dp/B00CVSXJTS/ref=pd_ys_ir_all_3

    I admit to not reading it *very* carefully, but it's not altogether clear that these won't actually be *original* signatures. Well, not without access to a real Time Machine....

    For £2.99, that would be the steal of the year.

    ...I don't think anyone would believe that that's what they get. :o

    PLEASE NOTE THE AUTOGRAPHS ARE COPIES OF ORIGINAL AUTOGRAPHS .
    At least he's got his bases covered.

    Still, I'd trust anyone who writes in all-caps as far as I could throw them.

    Went to a local DVD store today, and they had "The Thick of It" in the new releases section. I'd say it was obviously an attempt to cash in on the "Peter Capaldi is the 12th Doctor" phase, but there was no obvious mention of Peter Capaldi being the 12th Doctor.

    I dont know... I kind of like it. Although, this close to the reveal of the 12th Doctor, I'd rather wait for a 12 Doctor (or even better 13, including John Hurt) version.

    The first material shot for Doctor Who (the title sequence) was recorded 50 years ago today.

    Ghostly tennant on the right is the best!

    Oh, and here's The sixth doctor giving a speech about the time war.

    I hope the Hurt Doctor secret is something like this.

    What I love about the John Hurt thing is all the people asserting that their favourite theory is the ONLY one that can explain who the character will be, usually flatly contradicting what we see on screen.

    In other news, the latest missing episodes rumour is that something will be unveiled at the "Missing Presumed Lost" event in October. This appears to be based on nothing more than the fact that it's far enough off for people to forget about the rumour by the time the event rolls around and they reveal that everything presumed lost, is still lost.

    In actual news, the latest Big Finish podcast is a free hour-long Iris Wildthyme adventure. Presumably not featuring the Doctor, but since it stars Katy Manning that still counts, right?

    What do the beatles have to do with your post?
    Unless John Hurt is the guy who Paul McCartney regenerated into in 1966, sparking all the conspiracy rumours...

    One of the most ardently desired lost episodes of something other than "Doctor Who" is an appearance of the Beatles on TV, and in one of Big Finish's audios it is revealed that the Meddling Monk has got this safely locked away in his own personal archive of things he can flog for a huge profit.


    BBC Three planning unimaginative clip show, but there's been so little news it's actually reassuring to think that somebody at the Beeb has thought of doing something obvious

    If anyone wants to create a new thread for the new forum (before its too late!) then feel free to kill this one off. I don't have the time to set one up at the moment. I don't think this style of thread would work AT ALL in the new forum style, and given that that forum can't cope with longer threads, maybe a reboot would be good, to delay the inevitable.
