actually, I think I saw it hinted at that, while their the same actress, Oswin isn't actually the new companion.
I saw an interview where someone said something along the lines of "also casting her as Oswin" which I see as meaning they're two different characters.

Did you know there is a Doctor Who RPG? My friends and I are playing it currently, but it is kinda confusing.

Yeah its pretty good from what I've read of it so far. I liked them including the Fourth Doctor meeting the TOS crew which was really nice.

Should have been the Second Doctor:

Patrick Troughton's tenure matches the run of the original Star Trek pretty closely.

So, it's been announced and pretty thoroughly confirmed by actor Matt Smith and showrunner Steven Moffat that 11's tenure will be ending this year's Christmas Special.

All this memorabilia is giving me déjà vu of my mates house. He has everything Doctor who, signed photos and a full size Tardis and all. He got on Blue Peter for something Doctor Who related once too, I can't remember exactly what.
He'd be in Shangri-la with all this stuff.

No, this isn't a race issue, just asking if people would be okay with variety.

and Moffat could use it as a chance to dispel the rumors of racism and sexism.

When it comes to acting a character, like the Doctor (one who has been re imaged in many different ways), to me the only thing that matters is if the person is a good actor.

my mom also cares that it's a lesser known actor. so she doesn't like all the people wanting Rupert Grint, Ian McKellan, or Idris Elba. She'd prefer it to be someone who may be better known in England , but not over here

A couple of dark horse suggestions I've seen that tickle my funny bone:

Alan Rickman (Snape in Harry Potter).

Gary Oldman (Dr Smith in the Lost in Space remake, also the bad guy in 5th Element)

YES THEY'RE BAD GUYS! SO?

Also I'm fine with a non-anglo-male Doctor.

on another note, fish fingers go well with real custard, better than they do with pudding

The Sisterhood of Karn appeared in the Classic Who story 'the Brain of Morbius' where they were immortals dependent on an elixir. As part of the story the Doctor reignited the flame that made the Elixir.

Why tell you that? They're in the prologue mini-episode here - http://t.co/Qj0QcVFKOm

I still haven't seen it but I'm psyched. I just caught up today. So with that in mind, having seen everything since the reboot (the special aside), here is my final verdict on favorites:

Favorite Doctor: 10

Favorite companion: Clara

A Doctor Who thread

Post by Ade Nightwolf »

Since we're all about an hour or so before the start of one of the most hyped seasons of the show ever, anyone wanna start a Doctor Who thread with me? First question, who is your favourite Doctor and why? Me, I like Pertwee the best, tho I suspect that's mostly due to his introducingThe Master at the character's best. Other stuff tho, he was pretty much the James Bond of all the regenerations, and that was fun! Gotta love the way he blustered his way in, insulted everybody yet still was proven right.

So... anyone else wanna chime in?

I don't really like doctor who. I think it's due to the fandom. Because does anyone just "like" it? No! Everyone who is a fan is a HUGE fan, and it gets tiring.

I have! Good episode. I'm withholding judgment on the 12th Doctor, though. He still has to get his momentum up.

Indeed. I thought it was a nice, solid ep. Only major problem I had with it was Clara's difficulty accepting the new Doctor.

Also, what an ending! Here's a theory: Missy is a regenerated Master!

that's a good theory, but I don't think it's the casebecause she said something along the lines of The Doctor being her Husband. I think it's probably either River or the Tardis.

The slapping Clara down as an in-universe replacement for the people who grumped about an older Doctor was a bit ham-fisted, I'll agree. I may be biased because of preferring the classic series, and being a pretty big fan of Capadi's other work, but I was very happy with Deep Breath. Nice to see a return to a grumpy professor type Doctor, he comes across as somewhere between 3 and 4 personality-wise, who happen to be my two favourites.

I have finally at long last discovered this thread!
Season 9 looks great and unfortunately I hear that almost every episode will be a double episode....so many cliff hangers!
On another note this thread my die because there will be a long time between season 9 and 10 because Moffa is going to do another series of Sherlock.
Who here has seen the latest christmas special? I loved it! It might be my first or second favourite episode of season 8.
A horror movie called Alien.jpg
A horror movie called Alien.jpg (36.18 KiB) Viewed 26580 times
In all honesty I hope that Clara dies in the newest season. WAIT DON"T HURT ME! HERE ME OUT! I think she has been a good companion but I think that she has become a little dull at times and lately she has seemed really ungrateful to the doctor giving her the privilege of time travel. The thing with Dany Pink dying and there relationship was well done but it seemed to ground the season to earth. However if she does die then I want her death to be unexpected but also tragic and meaningful, like defending the doctor one last time.
My favourite Doctor would probably be Sylvester McCoy and his companion Ace.
My favourite episode was probably silence in the library. Imagine after watching tha episode walking into a coridor and realising that because of the the two light sources you have 2 shadows.

For those that haven't yet seen this video I would highly recommend it, especially David Tennant fans.

And before I leave this enormous post here is a quick joke:
Master: Knock! Knock!
Doctor: Who's there?
Master: Knock! Knock!
Doctor: That's not how the joke goes.
Master: I just knocked 4 times.
10th Doctor dies

Yeh that joke was random, bye.
