Doctor Who Geeks (not so) Anonymous

(After our antenatal thread became somewhat hijacked with talk of Doctor Who)

Hello,

My name's (usually) MsMoss and I've been a Doctor Who Geek for over twenty years now. I grew up with McCoy, stood by it through its years in the wilderness and now watch, proud but slightly bemused, as it is no longer shameful to admit you're a fan.

Anyone else with me? You love the new series but don't want the old to be forgotten?

Join me, stand up and be counted!

UD, i stand corrected - I knew someone on here would know!

It means that for the first time since The Green Death (when I wasn't watching) I get an episode on my birthday! And so does DD!

So the 31st is yours and your dd's birthday? And you still have to go to the wedding of some random people you hardly know? I think at the very least then you should be allowed to take a mini telly with you!

Nikkie I really liked Ghost Light the first time around (I would have been twelve I think) but I have to admit that watching it as an adult, John Hallam (Light) does look like David Dickinson!

ImaWurzel, yes he's back... can I borrow that fan?

No, the wedding is episode 1, DD's birthday is ep 8 and mine is ep 11!

Radio Times listings are saying 7.55-8.40 pm, which surely can't be right? I've heard other sources saying 7pm as last year.

Oh how strange when I click on the link it just says, "to be announced". Does seem a little late especially for the younger children that watch it.

you're right, it has changed now! I think it will be 7pm - don't think they'll mess with a winning conjunction.

If they changed it think there would be a lot of fuss, with all the kids that watch it.I don't fancy telling dd2 that the Dr is on too late for her!

Enjoy - tribute to the companions

Brilliantly edited!

TA!

The press event was tonight - some sort of news embargo may be lifted at midnight!

Just seen Tribute to the Companions.

One word.

Brilliant!

Serious Four is confirmed!!
They're staying tight-lipped on whether Tennant will return for it, though... I feel a big cliffhanger ending this year coming on...

that would be SERIES 4 then.

they have been showing clips on breakfast in the morning - dd is very excited!

LOVED the tribute to the companions, excellent! Pmsl at "dragonfly out in the sun..." just as we had the scene from - iirc - The Green Death!

UnquietDad you're the one with the "inside sources", do you know if DT is going to return from series four?

Foxinsocks I saw the trailer on BBC news this morning; he's such a tart that Doctor, snogging another assistant!

spoilers? about Capt Jack if what I think happens does IYSWIM

Rumours are than he has singned a deal to return, yes.

Nikkie what do you think happens? Do tell!

Have you watched it? think it involves Jack just before he returns to Torchwood.

Knew he was back, but I don't know the context.

Think that is Jacks last scene (at the end he is descending into Torchwood (according to Freemas website there is a line'he goes all the way down '(or something like that)
Think it looks like the Doctor 'fixes' Jack

All three of them are on TV/Radio all week.
Well John Barrowman is on even more than usual

Aha! Now the clip makes sense!

Nikkie what are you trying to say about John Barrowman... I don't think it's possible for there to be too much of him on the telly!

I know Jack comes back - but don't want to know much more!
