    Who cares whether there's going to be a movie? All I want to know is, what the hell is going on at the BBC?!

    Maybe it's a publicity scheme. The doctor goes back and visits schrodinger, and we don't know whether or not the film we go and see is doctor who until we enter the theatre.

    Or David Yates is just playing with us!

    @Marsden: Yeah, I forgot to mention that. Mainly because I'm waiting for the PC version, so the PSV3 dates mean nothing to me.

    He's also working on something called "The Voices in My Head". This may explain a lot.

    (By-the-way.... anybody hear the last Big Finish podcast? They may be able to persuade Matthew Waterhouse to reprise Adric! Don't all cheer at once....

    You fill in subject lines (on the previous page) and editing reasons? You must be the only person here to do that! :p

    I actually thought Adric wasn't that bad. In the same way that I didn't find Wesley Crusher too annoying on TNG. Adric was by no means the worst assistant.

    He also read part of that in "An Earthly Child".

    I still wish that they would give every doctor the pandorica speech. I'd love to hear him handle something on that scale.

    Incoherent spluttering too bloody fantastic!!! (If you do a google image search you can find out the plot hook for Issue 3, incidentally)
  • edited April 2012
    Are the comics even out yet? Any of them?

    Also, this deserves reposting, due to relevancy.
  • edited April 2012
    Issue 1 comes out at the end of next month. Seems like they have to prepare catalogs and whatnot and that's why we have covers so far in advance, or something like that.

    Hopefully I'll be able to pick a copy up at MCM next month.

    Figured I should post this photo. Maybe Matt was a wee bit too young for the role.

    It's like a dream come true...

    Now we just need Traveller's Tales to actually make the sodding game.
  • edited April 2012
    It would be new kinds of awesome. Doctor who is just made from this type of game. The collectible side. All the doctors with all their companions and all their outfits. Not to mention the hundreds of lien species in the show too. Gameplaywise it doesn't make much sense, but how cares if the 8th doctor lives again! First stop Lego. Next stop, full-blown movies and TV series!
  • edited April 2012
    Why is there no Torchwood game? That series would work well as a game. You could do stand alone missions or cases and have a story arc running though it. Or be like the later series and make it one long arc.

    Good news, everyone! The Big Finish Klein trilogy will be airing on Radio 4 Extra starting on the 21st after much delay. It is lightly recommended to pick up Klein's first appearance, Colditz, before listening.

    Ten Doctors nothing. Rich Morris has got something REALLY big planned for next year -

    Goddammit, I'm really regretting not picking that one up now.

    Now seems as good a time as any to finish reading "the ten doctors"!

    As an aside, has anyone else noted that the popularity of this thread seems to have dropped significantly since the appearance of the pony thread? Coincidence? I THINK NOT.

    Also, the ponds are no longer filming doctor who. Sob.

    If they air Klein's Story (a one-parter on the same disc as the second release), it's basically a full-cast retelling of who Klein is with flashbacks (featuring Paul McGann as an alternate Eighth Doctor!), so you shouldn't be too bad. Nick Briggs also still does the hosting gig for the slot, so he may prepare a basic summary.

    Something along the lines of "subscribers get more at bigfinish.com"? :p

    Also, I forgot to post this. It's the last part of the "Dalek Tales" CGI fan thing, telling the backstory behind Victory of the Daleks and Dalek Kahn's rescue of Davros. Featuring a guest appearance from everyone's favourite doctor. (no, not him, the other one. No, the Other one!)

    Anyone seen this developer diary for the upcoming Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock?

    http://www.gametrailers.com/video/developer-diary-doctor-who/730167

    Any thoughts about the game? I have a problem with that every DW game they make today is supposed to be an "interactive episode" of the show. Why can't they just focus on making a good game instead?
  • edited May 2012
    Given how the episodes are more spaced out as of late, I suspect it's a ploy to try and make us overlook the fact that we're waiting longer and longer for new episodes. And it's not really working, to be honest...

    I also find it interesting they claim this is the first real 'interactive episode', despite it being a sidescrolling platformer. It's like they're acknowledging that 'The Adventure Games' weren't all that interactive. :)

    Ever since the seventh Doctor offered Tuck a place in the TARDIS at the end of "The Incomplete Death's Head", we've known that he's got an eye for the ladies.

    Well.

    Guess who's turning up in "Doctor Who" now!

    Oh, crap, it's AUDIO!

    I'm actually looking forward to it myself. Although I doubt anyone will want to play the co-op side with me (everyone in the household hates the show. Weirdos. :P). Any idea if the PC version has online?

    The Current working title for Episode Two of the Series is "
    Dinosaurs on a Spaceship
    "

    Will it have Samuel L Jackson say shout
    "I've had it with these motherf***ing dinosaurs on this motherf***ing spaceship!"

    No, but he'll be appearing in the post credits sequence to recruit the doctor into the avengers initiative.

    Also, @marsden, I can't figure out if that's a photo of matt smith with heavy filtering or a really accurate pastel painting.

    Well they had to have something equally as awesome as Episode One, which is the one with
    every Dalek EVER
    . It'll be an absolute tragedy if they change it from that name. Best episode title ever.

    @Friar - Pastels. I think. The Doctor matches the other characters too well for it to just be a manipulated photo.

    Especially if it has neither dinosaurs or spaceships.

    Speaking of which, the 11th doctor hasn't really had a proper space-ship episode yet, has he? I mean, "The Beast Below" was pretty much only technically a space ship. In all other respects it was just a town. And "Flesh and Stone" was, well, a forest.

    Victory of the Daleks/Curse of the Black Spot/The Doctor's Wife/A Good Man Goes To War (well, Space Base)/ The God Complex/ Closing Time

    In other news, the (heavily cut) first episode of A Thousand Tiny Wings is now on iPlayer.
  • edited May 2012
    The point is that there's not really been an episode set on a spaceship that felt like a spaceship.

    Victory of the Daleks - Only for, like, 5 minutes. That doesn't count.
    Curse of the Black Spot - Again, only at the resolution.
    The Doctor's Wife - Technically that's an alien planet. Of sorts.
    A Good Man Goes To War (well, Space Base) - Answered yourself there.
    The God Complex - It didn't feel like a spaceship.
    Closing Time - Briefly, at the end. Doesn't count.
