@Arbutus – Oh of course their are traits that are the same or similar for each Doctor, he is after all the same Time Lord. But the fact remains that they are also very different, and when they meet they do seem like different people… because each incarnation is a different person, but they are all collectively the Doctor. Regeneration is a very…[Read more]

@bluesqueakpip – Topic Dalek is still wary of Grammar Dalek… emergency temporal shift!

@FaeGrl – Interesting, I do often view them as seperate myself. But separate incarnations of the same character… hmmm, hard to explain. But yes indeed, he is a complex character! My favourites are First and Seventh… and also the Second and Fourth. Wait, I like the Sixth as well… okay I like all the Doctors!

Annnnnd that gif is from ‘The…[Read more]

Oh no! The first sentence in my previous post has bad grammar! And now I can’t edit it… Ahhhh!

@FaeGrl – Indeed, it just seems that the Seventh Doctor seemed to have the manipulative trait more than any other Doctor… similar to what @bluesqueakpip mentioned about the Tenth and arrogance. I find the Seventh Doctor a fascinating character, not only does his personality change over time… but he ends up considering most of what he’s dealing…[Read more]

@mattwholigan – Pretty random… but then you can find some crazy stuff on eBay. I bought my sister a life-size cardboard cutout of the Tenth Doctor for Christmas… and the dog started barking at him. It was rather amusing.

@devilishrobby – The method the Seventh Doctor used to make Ace lose her faith in him in ‘Curse of Fenric’, is much more brutal than the Eleventh Doctor… but yes there is a similarity there in other Doctors, that some of them will be manipulative. Even the Second Doctor to an extent and he I always considered one of the nicest Doctors. But…[Read more]

@mattwholigan – That’s just a bit scary! Where did you get that from, anyhow? lol

@FaeGrl – Ah well, the Seventh Doctor becomes very manipulative… to the point he’s setting up and playing ‘chess’ with his enemies and companions. There’s a few scenes where Ace (you’ll meet her later) actually gets very angry with the Doctor about it. He’s a very interesting and unusual Doctor, who sometimes even seems quite cold… he is…[Read more]

@FaeGrl – Yep, the Seventh Doctor is so cute in ‘Time and the Rani’!. With all the dundrearyisms. He’s brilliant in ‘Paradise Towers’ as well… of course only when you get to his second season will his manipulative nature become more apparent. Glad you’re enjoying his serials though. Oh and just a warning, when you get to ‘Ghost Light’, its…[Read more]

@FaeGrl – Yay for ‘Time and the Rani’! Its a serial that gets a lot of bad reviews from folks, but I think its great! Hah! And no Mel isn’t a Time Lord, but the Rani is. I’m guessing you got a bit confused at the part where he thinks she’s the Rani? The reason he knew she was Mel is because she only had one pulse, therefore not a Time Lord. And…[Read more]

@Craig – I don’t mind, lol! I was originally going to keep my name without the space so it wouldn’t be confusing… but it ended up splitting the name strangely on posts as its rather long… so I had to add a space.

@mysticalcowboy – Its just @ and then their username without any spaces. Of course, that name can sometimes be different to their current on show username… the best bet is to copy-paste it from a member’s profile page. Oh and welcome!

@d12345 – I suggest you take a look at the ‘Etiquette’ page, under ‘Trolling and derogatory comments’.

@FaeGrl – Oh yep, I know which serial you mean. And its actually a good idea to watch them in a linear fashion, as then you experience his manipulative side emerging… personally I think it is there in his first season, just not as much… and hardly at all in his first serial… but that is post-regeneration. Anyhow, interested to know what your…[Read more]

@FaeGrl – Are you starting from the beginning of his serials and viewing in a linear fashion? I think you mentioned you’ve watched a couple of the Seventh Doctor’s serials before, which ones were they?

@ZoobyDow – I second the notion about McGann needing a season or two as the Doctor.

@Arbutus – Colin Baker is another actor I’d love to meet at a convention, now if only I could find a convention close by that both he and Sylvester McCoy will be at; it would be great to get both their autographs.

Oh and @ScaryB I forgot to mention your mentioning (ahhhhhhhh! grammar!!!!) of the Eleventh Doctor and Carmen, he can obviously play…[Read more]

@ScaryB – I’d probably want to watch all his serials before writing up a defense for the Sixth Doctor, I’m getting there though! And yes I agree we need a Sixth Doctor revisit, ‘Varos’ would be perfect for the reasons I mentioned before. That and yes… it has Sil, of whom I know from ‘Mindwarp’; and he’s rather amusing. Ah, random viewing method again!

@bluesqueakpip – Oh nice save! I’ve been wanting to go to a Doctor Who convention for a while… that one is probably a bit too far away though! lol

@FaeGrl – I wouldn’t worry, Daleks don’t seem to exterminate people anymore… I mean, when was the last time somebody actually got exterminated on screen in New Who? Quite a while ago! Then again……[Read more]

@FaeGrl – Awww, thanks for the compliment. 🙂

And I feel that this thread has reeeeeally quite gone off the subject of Doctor Who. I should probably direct you all to the ‘Rose and Crown’ thread again, but I will start talking about Doctor Who and hopefully it will return to the thread’s subject topic.  Oh no… I’m such a Topic Dalek… no,…[Read more]
