From DWM 442
@Bumble-Toes: In the Big Bang Two reset, were the Leadworth ducks saved? (And if not, why not?)
Steven Moffat: Oh Lordy. From the start I had this single idea:
That the ducks, like Amy’s parents, had been sucked through the crack in time. And to round everything off, in the very last shot of the series, we’d see the TARDIS fade away, leaving us with a shot of the duckpond, and some happy little ducks. Then, at the last minute we had to relocate the scene to Amy’s back garden, and it never happened. So! There you go! Nice thought, never happened. Oops!

14 August 2013 at 22:24 #16164@jimthefish Nice. And your avatar too. Does the Gallifreyan say something? Are we meant to figure it out? I can’t unzip the translator (nor figure out the guide, nor Catherine Bettenbender’s version).

14 August 2013 at 20:36 #16135@whisht No I did that on purpose just in case Craig needed to redo the link (It’s just Colin & his big weapon again …)
14 August 2013 at 20:20 #16132@craig @whisht @bluesqueakpip I think my last post on the sofa has the offending code but on this 2nd attempt to get the URL (without shift+R-ing) it copied the correct code….!?!

I shall change the blackboard to ‘I will always check the code (x100)
14 August 2013 at 20:06 #16127I just checked the 1.2.3.10/bmi/ & the code becomes correct if I shift+R the image. I don’t usually bother so I’m not sure why it usually works… Maybe it only occurs with certain images? I will always shift+R before I copy the URL from now on.
Thanks for helping to solve the mystery.
14 August 2013 at 19:53 #1612514 August 2013 at 19:42 #16123@craig Just read your post. I’ll have to try to remember to look out for that in the code in future…
14 August 2013 at 19:39 #16122@craig I just searched the internet for that image. No joy. Here is tiny similar version though.

Not sure about the extra bit, my linking technique has probably got sloppy recently with the sheer volume of bits n bobs I’ve been
inflictingposting (I keep finding the damn stuff).Though my re-search is proof perhaps, that one should post as one finds stuff, otherwise you’re likely to never find it again…
14 August 2013 at 19:08 #16116@craig I can see it. It originates from this page.

Back to the 2006 annual article (RTD) On the start of the Time War & the Time Lords sending the Dr to prevent the Dalek’s creation in ”Genesis of the Daleks”:
‘ An act of genocide! The Time Lords fired the first shot – though in their defence, they took this course of action because they had foreseen a time when the Daleks would overrun all civilised life and become the dominant life-form in the universe.’
14 August 2013 at 18:09 #16106@lostpidgeon Both parts of the Capaldi interview with Craig Ferguson have been removed from Youtube because they discuss both dropping Acid…

14 August 2013 at 17:21 #16103From Panini’s Doctor Who Annual 2006 – Meet the Doctor, written by Russell T Davies. (abridged)
‘…There had been a War, the Great Time War between the Daleks & the Time Lords. There had been two Time Wars before this – the skirmish between the Halldons and the Eternals, and then the brutal slaughter of the Omnicraven Uprising – and on both occasions, the Dr’s people had stepped in to settle the matter. The Time Lords had a policy of non-intervention in the affairs of the Universe, but on a higher level, in affairs of the Time Vortex, they had assumed discreetly the role of protectors. They were the self appointed keepers of the peace. Until forced to fight.
Now, the story of the Great (and final) Time War is hard to piece together because so little survived. Certainly , both superpowers had been testing each others’ strength for many, many years…..
…..It ‘s said that under the Act of Master Restitution President Romana opened a peace treaty with the Daleks . Others claim that the Etra Prime Incident began the escalation of events…..…..The terrible War began. The Time Lords reached back into their own history, to assemble a fleet of Bowships, Black Hole Carriers & N-Forms; the Daleks unleashed the full might of the Deathsmiths of Goth, and launched an awesome fleet into the Vortex, led by the Emperor himself.
The War raged, but for most species in the universe, life continued as normal. The War was fought in the Vortex, and beyond that, in the Ultimate Void…..
…..If a planet found it’s history subtly changing – perhaps distorting and rewriting itself under the pressures of the rupturing Vortex – then it’s people were part of that change, and perceived nothing to be wrong. Only the Higher Species….. saw what was happening…..
The Nestene Consciousness lost all of it’s planets, and found itself mutating under temporal stress…..
Years passed, as the mighty armies clashed. And then, silence…..
…..All that is known is that one man strode from the wreckage, one man walked free from the ruins of Gallifrey and Skaro. The Time Lord called the Doctor. And his hearts were heavy as he boarded his ship once more, and took to the skies, to escape everything he had just seen; everything he had just done…’

Don’t forget to look up at the ceiling & down at the floor…
Also traipse round the gantry & down into the ‘basement’…
13 August 2013 at 19:56 #16047@Shazzbot Yes it works for me (I’m using Google Chrome). You can only explore the console room but it’s seriously cool. All I can suggest is that you keep refreshing the page…
Hope you can get it to work…

I built an eye and a chest section for this scene but it was never used...you can however still see in picture 6 the closed eye that was always present in the suit.

11 August 2013 at 16:09 #15906@jimthefish That does sound suspiciously like John Hurt. Has the Moff Masterplan possibly been in preparation for quite so long?
