Doctor Who 50th

[KayHarker]

I'm still stupidly excited about the 'new' Troughton episodes, but just to add to the fun, Watch are showing some seriously classic episodes today from 2pm. Any else watching? And what are you looking forward to as we approach the anniversary episode and beyond?

Yes, I was surprised that McGann regenerated into Young John Hurt rather than Old John Hurt or even Middle-Aged John Hurt.

I've always assumed that timelords age. I assumed that William Hartnell started out young and got older.

I also assumed that it was all the accidents and deaths that the Doctor has that short cuts him to the next generation!

After all, River song aged during the regeneration that grew up with Amy and Rory

I'm not sure it is on YouTube, to be honest. But it's here.

the five ish doctors reboot
very funny

yes I loved that spoof, very witty.

All the connections in it were great.

I was wrong, it's not on YouTube. Just iPlayer.

may be on digital spy.

also if you have playback tv, i think you may be able to go to channel 331 and watch but not 100% sure. we have a H-max.

Where can I find the Five(ish) Doctors thing? On youtube there only seem to be trailers for it.

Jux it's here on iplayer

Thanks . I'll wait until dd's finished watching the 50th (again).

The five(ish) drs was brilliant loved Ian mckellan and Peter Jackson and McCoy looking all old and bored in the fake tardis.....id like to go home now

tardis
:)

bum.

I got woken up to the theme tune this morning. The DDs had got themselves up and quietly crept downstairs to watch it again before we got up. What a lovely lie-in and all thanks to The Doctor.
:)

Just watched the 5ish doctors. Fabulous! :)

Golly it's all been wonderful. And on reflection I don't mind that it pissed all over The End of Time, because that was a bit shit. So. Capaldi with his lovely accent, searching for Gallifrey anyone?

Jux - I always thought I was the only one who thought River was badly/over acted!

Just seen the 5ish doctors. Enjoyed the many and varied cameos.

Five(ish) was great! I loved the Baker household scrabbling to get out of the front door!

I'm loving Five(ish). Brilliant to get Peter Jackson and co involved.

Dh tells me Peter Jackson has worked with Moffat before and is a geek so would have been easy to persuade.

Peter Jackson has publicly offered to direct an episode of Doctor Who if they give him a Dalek as payment, IIRC.
