Also, too, top 11 cult writers Cultbox readers would like to do an episode. I'm surprised Terry Pratchett wasn't on the list, but it's a pretty good list.

Why not a mayfly Doctor, who exists for one show only? I’d often thought about that. Would it be weird in the run of the series to have the 45th Doctor turn up and be played by Johnny Depp or someone? Would that be a cool thing to do? There was also the idea that if you could bring one classic Doctor back, you’d actually, impossibly, want it to be William Hartnell. You wouldn’t want any of the others. You’d want him to come and say ‘What in the name of God have I turned into?’ That’s the confrontation that you most want to see, to celebrate 50 years. Going round and round in circles on it I just thought ‘What about a Doctor that he never talks about?’ And what if it is a Doctor who’s done something terrible, who’s much deadlier and more serious, who represents that thing that is the undertow in both David and Matt. You know there’s a terrible old man inside them. Well, here he is, facing the children he becomes, as it were.

50TH ANNIVERSARY PICTURES!!!!!!!!!!

Someone pointed out that John Hurt's costume looks like Paul McGann's with Eccleston's Jacket over the top, and I have to very strongly agree.

sadjfioafe if it does turn out to be the thing with river, or ten's aborted regen, or something else BLINDINGLY OBVIOUS i'm gonna be so fucking irritated with this quote

thanks moffat we're not blind holy shit

actually clearly i'm already irritated

i blame this john hurt business URGH THE MORE I THINK ABOUT IT THE LESS THRILLED I GET AND I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT IT A LOT SO NOW I'M IN LIKE THE NEGATIVE THRILLS

why couldn't you have just brought back paul mcgann instead of retconning some doctor who's not really the doctor into the show

/we could have had it allllllllllllll

also

ten's sad hair makes me laugh every time

did he run out of alien gel or something

To be fair to Moffat, a lot of people have been saying "omg the doctor only has one regeneration left the show is almost over" incessantly so it apparently isn't obvious to people who don't follow the show obsessively like we do.

To be fair to Moffat, a lot of people have been saying "omg the doctor only has one regeneration left the show is almost over" incessantly so it apparently isn't obvious to people who don't follow the show obsessively like we do.

I feel like most people are saying "he only has one regeneration left so I wonder how they're gonna handwave the limit." Because I think most fans - maybe not casuals, but everyone else, is fully aware the BBC is not going to cut off a hit show just because of some throwaway line said decades ago.

Idk, I mean I've only seen Moffat-era Who once and the River thing was still a blatantly obvious solution. Ofc there's no saying it's the River bit at all - maybe it's some obscure scene from a Classic serial.Who knows. The quote just seemed really...arrogant - like "no one except me will have possibly thought of this scenario!" "You should go back and count correctly" look dude I can count to thirteen thanks in fact if I use ALL my toes I can count to twenty! and agh it just rubs me the wrong way

also I would just like to point out that Eleven himself calls himself the "eleventh" sooooo

But like I said, my John-Hurt-rage-tinted goggles are probably making me more irritated than it really warrants. Plus I'm not Moff's biggest fan to begin with.

 

[Tennyo]

To be honest, I wasn't sure how I felt about the whole "forsaken regeneration," thing, but the more I ponder it, the more I like the idea of it.

Granted, I do kind of feel like the role gets in the way of what could have been more Paul McGann, but even still, it is interesting.

I still hope McGann has a cameo. Show him turning into Hurt, or something. Please please please.

So I finished series one of the revival series, I really enjoyed Eccleston's run as the Doctor more than I thought I would, from his sacrfice to his regeneration he was indeed fantastic! That kid in "The Empty Child" and "The Doctor Dances" was so creepy and it was really obvious that

Spoiler

that Nancy was his mom and not his sister as she claimed from the start.

I absolutely loved "Bad Wolf", from Jack pulling that gun out of his ass, the Doctor's face when

Spoiler

Rose's 'died'

was perfect and his response to the Daleks threat was awesome. Robot Anne Robinson might be new favorite character of the show, her jab at Rose about being unemployed and then with Daleks closing in on it saying "Exterminate!" its responding with "You are the weakest link. Goodbye." and 3 Daleks go boom, that was the best. Now on to Tennant.

Also I keep saying Fantastic once an hour, I think I need help.

Of course, it could also be a reference to the questions about a scene in Brain of Morbius.

Spoiler: From TV Tropes:

This episode contains a sequence in which the three previous incarnations of the Doctor are shown, and eight additional faces beyond that. The scene is so trippy, though, that those could just as easily have been Morbius' old faces or just some random moustachio'd gentlemen. Morbius asks "How far back Doctor, how long have you lived?" — even by Time Lord standards, it seems The Doctor has been around for a while.

But this is Moffat, so who knows?

In news I am genuinely happy (and by happy I mean EXCITED AS FUCK) about, Peter Capaldi has apparently gone shopping for his outfit.

Spoiler: fffffuuuuuuuuck

Not only is he facing us, he's also flaunting his ass in the standard female superhero pose.

*thud*

They're still not going to give us an actual trailer anytime soon are they? Those images are great though.

Spoiler: kind of spoilerish, maybe?

I'd seen this referred to in various comment sections but it's nice to have a visual on it.

They’re not broody, upset Doctors – it’s more 'There’s two of us! Brilliant!' They’re naturally funny together.

So I started watching Tennant's run as the Doctor and my god he has been brilliant so far, I almost died laughing while watching "New Earth" when he has hamming it up as Cassandra. My favorite episodes so far have easily been "School Reunion" and "The Girl in the Fireplace". Sophia Myles was fantastic as Madame de Pompadour and that ending was so sad and beautiful though I found the explanation for why the TARDIS couldn't travel back there rather lacking. As for "School Reunion", I've never even seen anything of the old Doctor Who series and I still got all teary eyed when the Doctor said " Goodbye - my Sarah Jane.", that moment was so beautiful.

Only seen that episode in Italian, huh?

IMAGINE NO MORE!!!

You can tell that Billie Piper is on the verge of busting out laughing. It's hilarious. They must have had to do a million takes of this scene, and at the end of the day were just like, "Fuck it,that's good enough."

Is that the trailer the rumors were talking about? Very, very cool to see.

I was hoping for clips from the episode, but perhaps this is better. No spoilers!
