Topics with more than 1000 replies are NOT reccomended, you should lock the topic and start a new topic to continue the discussion. There have been rare cases where a very large topic (more than 2-3000 replies) has spontaneously vanished and cannot be recovered because the data is corrupted." So considering that this is first such thread in the Open Forum to reach that number, I've closed down the OFFICIAL Doctor Who thread and started a brand-new one to keep gabbing in. :: regeneration effect :: In keeping with the theme, welcome to the newest incarnation of THE official Doctor Who thread! All of the old stuff is still archived here for reading. "I wish this screengrab had never come to me! I wish none of this had ever happened!" "So do all who live to see such grabs, but it is not for them to decide. All you have to do is decide what to cap with the grab that is given to you." - TheDiva

And good ol' David was at the ceremony too. Awwww. The last time a Doctor appeared at his companion's wedding was Tom and Lalla's in 1980 "I wish this screengrab had never come to me!

I don't need her. All right. No, seriously, I'm ok with it. Matter of fact, I'm happy for them, and hope they have a long happy relationship. Aaaaaaand for the record, I didn't spray paint "Laurence Fox Has Herpes" on the side of the Cap Page Water Tower.

Posts: 8451 (01/02/08 10:27 AM) Sorry - No factsheet. Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I nearly said "give it time, you may get your chance"... and I'm not talking about being cast as the next Doctor, either. I can't still be the only person who watched Voyage..., can I? "The credibility of a man who admits his mistakes is slightly greater if, in advance, he has confessed he was inadequate."

Coincidentally enough, I should also be getting my new DVD-recorder today as well... so those of you waiting for your copies from me should get them by this weekend. Got myself About Time 6 last weekend and am up to the 'Trial of a Time Lord' bits (right near the Eric Saward-meltdown stage). Some interesting things and tidbits about the show I haven't heard before. "Point 1: Marvel, under Joe Quesada, has a no-smoking policy for its heroes. Joe reportedly thinks it glorifies and/or encourages kids to smoke and doesn't want it in his comics. Point 2: To make Peter Parker more accessible to younger readers, the same Joe Quesada had him make a deal with the devil. This means, to me, that making a deal with the devil is more acceptable for our children than smoking." - J. Caleb Mozzocco

If you're American, and don't have a generous UK connection, you won't be seeing it 'til June. Which sucks because they could have gone the Torchwood route and started showing new episodes a couple days after the UK premiere, if they wanted. The US stations, I imagine, would be willing to pay through the nose for new material. Of course, it would cost tons less to just pay the WG what they want, but . . . screw the writers, right?

Posts: 16923 (01/03/08 9:38 AM) freak-o-d-week Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I have a question. I don't know if this was previously discussed or not. I was listening to the commentary for the HHGTG movie, and one of the guys mentioned a project he was working on with Douglas Adams before he died. Is the Christmas episode of DW a tribute in some way to Douglas Adams? Ok, maybe not the entire episode, but perhaps just the Starship Titanic? I'm asking because I haven't seen the new ep and I have no idea what the details are, except for a Titanic ship in space. "People suck, friend. Every last one of them.

I DUNNO, BUT JUST IN CASE, READ AT YOUR OWN RISK: According to Wikipedia (100% accurate ): When trying to figure out command overrides for the Host, the Doctor uses 666 ("The Number of the Beast") and 42 ("The Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything"). Douglas Adams, who prescribed the purpose for the latter, was a writer for the series during the Fourth Doctor's tenure, and also created the computer game Starship Titanic which also featured a ship similar to the one that appeared in the show. It is, however, unknown if this provided inspiration for the appearance of the Titanic in the special. shrug Eh, I was just curious. "People suck, friend. Every last one of them.

Ok, maybe not the entire episode, but perhaps just the Starship Titanic? After watching it, I don't think so. The reason for the Titanic is pretty evident by the time the show ends. *Quote:* I'm asking because I haven't seen the new ep and I have no idea what the details are, except for a Titanic ship in space. It's best that way, believe me I'd have preferred, myself, that I hadn't even known that it was a ship in space until I'd watched it... but that fact was spoilered for me in a news article awhile ago.
