    Oops. Double post

    Hello everyone, been gone a while but just popping in.

    On the subject of b/w Pertwee stories I know that there is no colour copy of Invasion of the Dinosaurs episode 1 and so they have released the DVD with both the b/w and a restored colour version of episode 1. Personally I would go for the b/w version as it suits the tone of the episode…[Read more]

    Well I’ve just pre-ordered The Power of the Daleks Animation on DVD, I haven’t been this excited for ages!  Hopefully if this gets enough sales then they will animate more missing episodes.

    Here’s the link to anyone interested in buying (beware though, only available in region 2) Enjoy!

    @thethirteenthgamer

    I wouldn’t get your hopes up, this story has been told elsewhere on the Internet and was proved to be a load of rubbish (as everyone expected I’m sure), the guy who made it up even admitted that it was a wind-up. Still we can but dream…

    @theconsultingdoctor

    Hello sounds like a big task, writing can be so hard sometimes and I’m not the best at it! I’ll try help but could you perhaps give us some more details on the characters and the world you’ve created to give us an idea of what kind of story you’re trying to create, just vague sketchy outlines of the characters would be…[Read more]

    @theconsultingdoctor

    Don’t worry if I ever do happen to go back and get them I wouldn’t keep them for myself, I promise!

    @janetteb

    Sounds good, perhaps I’d visit the Egyptians and see the pyramids being built or go back to those foggy London streets of the Victorian era!

    @missy

    I too would visit the past first and then go out to space and see all those wonderful planets out there. I’m a bit fearful of the future so would probably avoid it anyway if I go back in time I could save all the missing Doctor Who episodes that were wiped!

  • @ichabod

    I can back you up on this one, River was depressing but very good in my opinion. Skargard was excellent.

  • @pedant

    I had heard of the 2012 remake but I thought I’d prefer the original. I might get it once I’ve finished the original, not sure. Good to hear that you regard it highly.

  • I just bought the 1970s BBC series “Survivors” by Terry Nation (a name familiar with all Doctor Who fans I’m sure) and was just wandering if anyone had heard of it, I’ve only watched the first episode and thought I’d ask if anyone had seen it before and did you enjoy it?

    Also, @mudlark @janetteb I’m a bit late but I thought I’d tell you that I’ve…[Read more]

  • @puroandson I’m sad to hear that you’ll be taking a break, it’s your consistent posting which really keeps this place alive, anyway enjoy a little holiday from the forum (as I’ve been recently) and I hope we’ll have some Doctor Who news to discuss soon.

    @janetteb re-watching BG who sounds good! I’ve just recently made my brother and my dad watch…[Read more]

  • TheDentistOfDavros replied to the topic On The Sofa (8)

    @janetteb That’s a great story sounds very funny! I also thought that Trap Street felt very Harry Potter, it reminded me of that alley (can’t remember the name) which I think was Harry Potter’s first experience of the “magic world”, my knowledge of Harry Potter is a bit rusty!

  • TheDentistOfDavros replied to the topic On The Sofa (8)

    @stitchintime That’s true I never thought that the Doctor could lie to the veil but now you’ve brought it up it seems like a good explanation.

    @pingpongpete1 Don’t worry I’m not fed up I’m still genuinely interested to see the photos such a pity it’s so complicated. Why not try adding them on to a post of yours on here, there’s a button that…[Read more]

    @pingpongpete1 Hello again, I tried the link and it worked and led me to a page called bbc costumes…who but it said that the folder was empty? Not sure what’s going on, should I make an account in case that’s the problem?

  • TheDentistOfDavros replied to the topic On The Sofa (8)

    @pingpongpete1 I did some looking around and found that a man named David Harrison was in two Doctor Who stories, his first was called Castrovalva (with Peter Davison as the Doctor) in which he played an uncredited warrior and his second was as an uncredited extra in Remembrance of the Daleks (with Sylvester McCoy’s Doctor). I also found a Terry…[Read more]

    Glad to hear your feeling better and back home, it was all down to the lollies!

    @trillianwho

    I always held the belief that all people born on Gallifrey were known as Gallifreyans and once you get through the academy you become a Time Lord/Time Lady as you said above.

    There is a fourth doctor story called the Invasion of Time (I haven’t watched it in a while so my memory may be a bit rusty!) which is set on Gallifrey where…[Read more]

    I was just watching the happiness patrol from McCoy’s time in the TARDIS, it’s a fantastic story with the funniest monster in the whole series in the form of the Kandyman! The actor who’s playing him is just brilliant and the moment when he answers the phone is just hilarious! Anyone else seen this story?
