Perhaps the Queen’s Baton contains the message: ‘Help One. We are a goldfish!’

Who here’s going to go the cinema to watch it, if this is true?
DWM 476 out on Thursday…

The answer is simple – as Moffat says in this video, all that’s required is the destruction of the internet…
21 July 2014 at 16:05 #29225Welcome @lotusofskaro & @animus!
Here’s a wee show about the discovery of ‘The Lion’ from 1999, presented by smiley Carol Smillie…
It features a stirring reconstruction of the moment the episode was purchased(!)
Another brief recon’ is a dramatic montage starring Mark Ayres making phone calls about missing episodes(!)
There’s even a brief mention of the possibility of episodes being in Nigeria…

70 photos from yesterday’s shoot…
19 July 2014 at 17:18 #29169I love when they find the secret entrance (nice carving!).
@phaseshift – Tinclavic is a nod to ‘The Visitation’.
The cliffhanger demonstrates that you should never start picking away at any chipped plaster on your walls…
19 July 2014 at 16:05 #29166Meanwhile, on the Planet of the Guinness Ice Cream.
The Doctor-Lite slot does ‘Life without the Doctor’. It’s actually a bit more like ‘Death without the Doctor’.What’s good about sad? It’s happy for deep people.
This is like a heart-wrenching, post 9/11 ‘Inferno’.The ignorance of chips (that’s french-fries to you!)
Anyone from Leeds offended?
The scene in the mirror-machine: If only Donna’s rucksack was giving as much as Catherine Tate is…
I like to wonder who & what make up The Trickster’s Brigade (why do I picture them in Fireman’s helmets?)
The Darkness as also (to be) seen in ‘The Big Bang’ and ‘The Name of the Doctor’
This is one of my very favourite episodes. I could watch it ’til the end of time…
19 July 2014 at 15:06 #29165It’s official but I’m scared so I’m posting here!

18 July 2014 at 09:51 #29078Steven Moffat has started writing 2014 Doctor Who Christmas Special. Will start filming after a 3 week break when S8 finishes filming.

If this is true, then Capaldi is doing a 2nd series (remember Mark Gatiss is yet to write another story for him).

‘Head, shoulders. knees and toes, knees and toes…’17 July 2014 at 16:26 #2905917 July 2014 at 13:59 #29055Photos aplenty…
Something potentially ruinous is being filmed right now. I don’t think I’ll share what it is. If you’re that determined, you’ll find it.
Here’s something else to compensate…

Video from 1986 just uploaded. I love the decaying Master being interviewed – very funny!14 July 2014 at 13:42 #2899814 July 2014 at 11:21 #2898914 July 2014 at 11:02 #28988By Kevin Hopgood:

“So what did you say your name was, Doctor..who?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Stop messing me around, creep! Failure to provide correct information; parking an unregistered vehicle in a Justice Dept. restricted area; possession of some form of electronic device – possibly a weapon; and being evasive to a Judge – you’re looking at pulling some serious cube time, Doctor..?”
“Who.”
“Right, that’s it, punk, you just added another year to your sentence! Control we got one for the cubes, five years plus an extra one for lip! Mandatory psych eval – possible Kook cube candidate.
Welcome to Mega-City One, ‘Doctor’!”
“Blimey!”14 July 2014 at 00:59 #28981Images from the new trailer…




13 July 2014 at 22:58 #2898013 July 2014 at 20:47 #28971This story turns out to be the first pure historical since ‘The Highlanders’. It also turns out to be the last ever pure historical (so far).
There are no aliens. There’s not even a villain as such. It was quite a curve-ball at the time – it would be now.
But it all goes pear-shaped with the Dr’s ‘get out of jail card’. ‘I’m a Time Lord.’ It’s a big storytelling no-no.
Why did it take another 4 regenerations to think up the psychic paper?
The Doctor & his accomplices are ruled out from the murder investigation once the contents of his snog box are revealed.
‘Strike me pink!’ Immediately after this shocked exclamation, Cummings takes the TARDIS’ secret pretty well. Is it due to the perception filter kicking in?
Lady Cranleigh: ‘Thanks for coming to the funeral.’
The Doctor: ‘Not at all. No hard feelings about you trying to let us be sent down for murder. ‘
I actually love the downbeat nature of the ending. As @scaryb says, Poor George.
13 July 2014 at 19:43 #28969The Doctor = Much better than smutty… ‘Have you an Uncle Percy?’ (snigger!)
The Doctor is imagining all sorts of things when the ‘The Master’ is mentioned, followed by ‘…The Other Doctor…’
This is the one time that this Doctor’s costume fits in with his environment. It’s soon exchanged for a fetching paisley dressing gown though.

No screwdrivers for the children. Their judgement is impaired as it is…
Hopefully , ‘Dancing’, is not a euphemism in this story. Adric’s not up to it, Tegan likes an older bloke, the look-a-likes’ ‘who is who’ thing has a whiff of wife swapping about it (as Robert Muir says: ‘It’s a little naughty, really.’).
All in all, a positively ripping episode!
13 July 2014 at 18:41 #28967It’s the experimental episode! Only this time it’s a companion-lite ep, not the Doctor-lite one.
The Doctor would rather talk to actual real people than watch Betty Boop! What a weirdo.

3 knocks!
The concept of having your voice ‘stolen’ is incredibly disturbing.
It’s all about the paranoia – reminds me of The Edge of Destruction. Imagine Sky running ’round the bus with scissors like Susan! (There’s a thought)
Shows the idealism of the Doctor is very dangerous – He’d like to bring Sky back to The Leisure Palace…
Rose Easter Egg! It seems that broadcasting to parallel universes is quite tricky…
Seeing the Doctor so vulnerable is gut-wrenchingly good!
Once again in a RTD script, the Dr is not the saviour of the day – (This time it’s the Dr’s catchphrases!)
I was teary-eyed @ the end (without shame).
One of RTD’s best (& Dr Who’s).
