    @ScaryB  Really enjoyed watching Tennant’s video diary. Nice to see, (yet again) just how he inhabited the role, emotionally. I almost shed a tear too. OH and I hope you won’t mind if I point the finger of blame […]

    I don’t necessarily disagree with your view although I would argue that this was really a choice made by the writing team. Would that story need to be done slightly differently if they didn’t show some […]

    Who is going dressed as what?

    No cosplay for me. It feels way too much like work. 🙂

    I was also thinking that if @ScaryB and I are coming back from the Friday session, and everyone else is […]

  • Juniperfish replied to the topic Doctor Who news

    @Craig it was epic 🙂 Are you going on the Sat? Me too.

    @ScaryB @Bluesqueakpip @Shazzbot and @Craig – perhaps we could all get together Friday evening for a wee dram.

    Who is going dressed as what? 🙂

    @ScaryB @Juniperfish @Bluesqueakpip @Shazzbot

    I had to run off to work this morning so missed all your troubles. Sorry, if I’d known it was going to be that difficult for you I would have tried to get more […]

    @ScaryB – more likely they’ll be relaying the panellists onto a big screen – or they might put big plasma screens around the auditorium.

    A 22 foot high Colin Baker. I may never recover. 😈

  • Bluesqueakpip replied to the topic Doctor Who news

    @ScaryB – the on-site auditorium there can take 4000 people at a time, so I suspect that we’re looking at 8,000 tickets per day. It could be more: after all, the people coming in are an entire TV production team. […]

  • Juniperfish replied to the topic Doctor Who news

    Wow – glad to hear you both got through eventually!

    I think the website must just have been on the fritz due to the volume of hits @ScaryB

    Sorry to hear you guys will be going on a different day, but happy […]

  • Bluesqueakpip replied to the topic Doctor Who news

    @ScaryB – phew!

    That was a bit epic. Last time I had that much difficulty getting tickets, it was to see David Tennant and Patrick Stewart in Hamlet.

    Though ironically, the extreme difficulty in getting them […]

  • Bluesqueakpip replied to the topic Doctor Who news

    @ScaryB – Yup. Weeping Angels

     

  • Juniperfish replied to the topic Doctor Who news

    @ScaryB <waves> Well I’ve managed (I think!) to get a Saturday “Ice Warrior” ticket – although it’s a very confusing and labyrinthine booking system so I may, in fact, have signed a one hundred year contract […]

  • @ScaryB

    The multi-channel universe certainly demands much more effort on this front than the past although the BBC did do it in the past through their trailers and articles in the Radio Times. I’m not […]

  • PhaseShift replied to the topic On the Sofa (part 2)

    @shazzbot

    The reason I found the clip is more or less the reason @ScaryB pointed out. Masses of material on the BBC Worldwide Doctor Who channel, so I try to look at it once a week and see what’s new. I have no […]

  • Bluesqueakpip replied to the topic The Rose & Crown

    @ScaryB – it’s been a long wait since 1896. Enjoy the champers! 🙂

  • Bluesqueakpip replied to the topic On the Sofa (part 2)

    @ScaryB – have the link, thanks.

    Are people trying for Saturday Weeping Angels? Followed by ‘anything we can lay our hands on’?

  • @ScaryB

    ‘– in order to ensure its success they don’t pitch it at the fans so much as a mainstream audience. (Which is exactly why some fans dislike the new direction I suspect).’

    I can only speak personally […]

  • jamesunderscore replied to the topic Doctor Who news

    @ScaryB – I’m not sure if they’ve confirmed the time. It might go out at 5:15 – that’s the time the first episode aired, but then again that’s hardly a primetime spot!

  • Whisht replied to the topic Website comments

    indeed @ScaryB – unfortunately the ‘news’ seems to have forgotten how to keep at the main points rather than just keeping the human-angle melodrama front and centre.

    @Shazzbot – just a slightly shoddy ‘gag’, […]

  • @ScaryB – oh, yes, you could. But…

    We know what the Doctor did in the Time War; he created the Time Lock and he destroyed Gallifrey before the Time Lords destroyed the entire universe. So he did what he did […]
