I strongly disagree. I'd rank him about 5th or 6th, behind Tom Baker, Pertwee, Troughton, Hartnell, on par with Davison and Eccleston, and better than Colin Baker, McCoy and McGann

You have a good point. Havent really seen the old epiosdes as much.

At least it wraps it up nicely. I seem to recall that was the ending to the Countrycide Torchwood episode, which kind of ruined what was nearly my favourite episode.

Haha, "DON'T WORRY, I HAVE A BULLDOZER". That episode was excellent.

Two new DVDs set to release, The Silurians first, then The Time Meddler. No dates yet. I'm glad they're releasing more Hartnell stuff, as I'm quite into 1950/60s Sci-Fi, and having said Sci-Fi be Doctor Who is just the icing on the cake. It's just such a shame so few Troughton episodes still exist. They need to release The War Games, just because it's a miracle all 10 parts still exist, and because it's Troughton's last episode.

Also, Tennat won Best Actor, and the show won Best Drama at the National Television Awards.

I saw a tiny bit of that. They showed a pretty shit clip of him, but then the other guys looked pretty rubbish too so it was alright.

Peter Moffatt, the director of The Visitation, The Five Doctors and The Two Doctors, among other episodes, has died.

RIP

Yeah, I speant the whole Contrycide episode thinking tehy were gunna be cool aliens. Bit dissapointed.

Bought that Lost in Time box set today, the one will at the bits of episode that don't exist in their entirety anymore. Only got it because it was on offer, I wouldn't pay full price for parts of a story.

Image of new series Sontarans.

Almost identical to the old ones, which is always a good thing.

Yea but do they still have that little valve on the back of there necks? that was a bit lame in my opinnion. All they had to do was hit it then there heads would deflate.

I live in England and am an absolute doctor who fan/buff so I am glad you made this crew. I've got David Tennant and Freema Agyemans autograph when I entered a competition. Can't wait for the fourth season including "beep" as the baddy and I also can't wait for the christmas special "Voyage of the damned" which has Kylie Minouge as the assistant if you Americans want some cool information.

That was a bit silly, and I assume they'll remove it, since they'll not want to go with an ending people would be able to predict, just like they removed the Cybermen's vulnerability to gold so they could have The Doctor defeat them in a more inventive way. Their new armour looks good, mind, better than in the old series, but I suppose all effects are going to have improved since then.

Also, they used to melt if they got some sort of acid on them, I forget which.

Yea i remember one episode "the two doctors i think" that showed what they called two sontaran battle crusiers. They were just disco balls with absolutley nothing attached to them. The special effects budget was poor in the golden days but so is the writing budget for the new ones apparently.

They'll probably mention that a couple of times while the Dr works on screwdriving somekind of pulse wave to finish them off.

The BBC said that Martha isnt allowed to swear in Torchwood!!!

I take it she'll still have lesbian sex and shoot things like all other Torchwood characters.

Just watched the first two episodes of "The War Machines". Seems to be a decent serial, but the fact that the evil computer keeps referring to The Doctor as "Doctor Who" is doing my head in. Strange they'd make that error so early on.

I think the point of that episode was that the scariest thing doesn't have to be a monster built by aliens or just an alien but what humans are capable of.

John Barrowman has said Captain Jack will be back for season 4, but there's no confirmation from the BBC yet. Still, I'd think if he's saying it, it's probably true.

Also, the BBC are cunts for not saying what time the Children in Need special is on, and making me have to watch 3 hours of shite just to catch a 7 minute episode hidden somewhere in the middle.

Friday, but I've had the INGENIOUS idea of sticking it on Sky+, and just watching it slightly later one, where I'll be able to fast forward through all the rubbish charity stuff, and get straight to the show.

Also, watched the end of The War Machines. Good episode, and the first which has The Doctor defending Earth, rather than having adventures on some other planet.

Children in Need Doctor Who was pretty good, but pretty damn strange. I thought the whole learning things from eachother was pretty cool though.

I loved it, up until Tennant's ridiculously cheesy speech.

The mocking of Davison at the start was ace, and I loved all the references, especially the one about The Master's beard. Much better than the last Children in Need special.

no, but it is still kind of ironic.
this is my first post here so I'm not sure what all you've seen. I've watched new series 1-3 (Sci-Fi) and the keys to time serial (DVDs). I also watched most of the first season of torchwood (BBC America). Doctor who is my favorite show because it's funny full of action and great science fiction concepts.

anyway (this is probobly way off topic, sorry) has anyone else noticed that recently the doctor has been a little... malicious?

Not particularly, especially when compared with the first Doctor.

Hell, in the very first episode he tried to strand two of his soon-to-be companions in caveman times, and wanted to beat a wounded man to death with a rock.

the ninth was told, by a dalek, that he'd make a good dalek. and the family of blood, holy crap that entire episode is cruel!

hey, I just found out something interesting: there are actually three ninth doctors

1. the official one from the series
2. the one from scream of the shalka
3. the one from the four episode spoof aired during a telethon.

interesting isn't it. before you complain, I know that they are all ninth incarnations because it was explicitly mentioned in the novel "The Gallifrey Chronicles."

Aye, but they're not canonical. That'd be like saying Peter Cushing was the second Doctor, and you can't be seriously suggesting Rowan Atkinson counts as a proper Doctor.

I'm totally not bumping this due to eight fucking days of inactivity.

There's nothing new to talk about, and we've never really talked about old stuff in here.

Hell, the biggest news this week is that my Davros box set was delivered when I was out, so I've got to get it from the post office.
