Doctor Who [2]

thank you very much, petty ^^ but do I see when the doctor change? and btw, since this is not texted or anything I am suddenly very glad I take german at school.

"The end of time" is when the Doctor regenerates from 10 to 11 Norc.

But you lost me with german bit. Does it have german subtitles?

no, they talk german for about 15 seconds in the episode i just saw. no subs whatsoever.

Which episode was that? Only one I can think of offhand with German in it is the Dalek one "Journeys End".



Not sure if its all the years of watching ww2 films or not but they sound even nastier in German!

I could have swonr Amarie mentoned somewhere she played piano- but cant seem to find th epost - maye it was someone else-anyway here's some Who tunes for piano- sheet music is available.

All the Strange, strange creatures


This is Gallifrey


Dooomsday


Doctor Who Theme


I am the Doctor

yes, that was the scene I was thinking about, but she talks german for a bit too.

So where you up to Norc? You onto series 5 now?

Just watched the river double bill. Made me cry:[.

Ready to discuss when others are.

(Must say in light of later story it hit sooooooo much harder. Much respect to Alex and David for this!
Gonna blub in a corner for a while

Right is everyone paying attention? Good, then we shall begin- diplomas at the end.

Good stuff Kafria- heres my thoughts on it-

And from 11th Hour

The Suns gone wibbly


Couple of Proms clips

Love this one for the kids- the looks on their faces- wonder, curiousty and a touch of pure terror- just as it should be



This is Gallifrey proms style

I watched the first part and I enjoyed it, though it was pretty creepy. There's a bunch of stuff I have to take care of today so I won't be able to watch the second part until later but I'll post my thoughts tonight, though it might be tomorrow by then for you European folks.

And remember the ideal viewing postion for Who Eldo- (And the ideal viewing age 7- imagine how creepy you would have found it then!)

I was fairly wimpy when it came to movies and TV shows so I would have had trouble falling asleep for weeks afterwards.

Yup I had many a sleepless night after Who as a kid, but I was back in front of the Tv th enext week for more!

The Master when he got corpsified horrified me as a kid. I had quite a few sleepless nights after that one.

I smell a wheeping angel. *cough* ELDO *cough*

The silence of the library was super creepy adn mind blowing and I totally loved, especially the little twist on the end and kdhbgfskcn!! I am terrible at this, start talking and I'll just comment and maybe come with some good arguments cons/pros.

Right here Norc- best use spoilers though as Eldo hasn't seen part 2 yet.

(This bit is a tiny, tiny bit spoilery-though I've kept it to a minimum of potential spoiling-but I do refer to something-vaguely- in the 11th Hour which is series 5- its just a continution of what I was saying but you might not want to know anything, even a tiny hint, of anything still to come-so it gets seperate spoilers- the explanation for this is a lot longer than whats in the spoilers you know! )

Like Doctors everyone has favourite companions. And Who always provides both a wide variety of character to the companions and continualy replaces them with new ones. If like Mrs Figg you dont take to the current ones you just hang in there (the Doctors always worth it) and more will turn up. As is happening in the new series. I prefer Donna to Rose but I dont dislike Rose, she just did not appeal to me as much as Donna's character. I prefer characters who are a bit damaged by life in some way. Donna is all the things you say about her but she also has a low opinion of herself and her own worth. She is also a bit narrow minded (before the Doctor) and self important. Where for me Rose was that bit to perfect. Probably why my favourite Rose episode is the one about her Dad, "Father's Day"- a 9th Doctor story. You should be able to find it on that site.

I love Moffats writing and have done since I saw Press Gang as a teenager, so I have followed his carrer- not by going on forus ms about him or anyhting just by watching his shows and loving them -and sometimes I didnt realise till after I had seen them he had written them, it wasnt even delibrate- I just love his writting so whenever something he had written came on I loved it. He loves to play. With words, with characters- in everything he does. Doctor Who gives him the one thing even Sherlock cant to play with though- time. And boy does he have fun with that.
The stuff we are watching at the moment (well the stuff you are) is the Russel Davies era (Whovians refer to Who as often by the head writers era as by Doctors- as they have such an influence on the shows direction). MOffat is just one of the series regular writers. He also did Blink in this series, The Gilrl in the Fireplace and the two parter the Empty Child and the Doctor dances (all are superb examples of Who) and now MOffat is Head writer and showrunner and its quite different from the previous RTD era- some people have as hard a time adjusting to these era changes as changes in Doctor, I was like a pig in mud.
RTD is partly a soap, partly a kitchen sink drama, urban, but melded to Doctor Who (often very successfully). Moffats era is Doctor Who the fairytale.

yes, totally agree about everything except all that about the episodes I haven't seen
I really see why you like Donna. It may be a tigh, haven't really reached a form conclusion, lulz, but she is awesome. And they way that her life isn't perfeect, her mom nags about her not having a real propper job and everything, it appeals to like every woman. Also the self important stuff and that low self thing. And when she meets the doctor he lifts her up and she just.. well, she just brilliant. Should this be in spoilers?

also, I am very curious about this newest companion, the brunette, can't remember her name. I've seen her acting on that terrible BBC titanic movie, she was great, I like her, I think she'll be like fresh air.

I think she'll be like fresh air.- Norc

Well I love the Ponds, they are my favourite companions since Nuwho returned. I love the very fact ther eis more than one companion in the Tardis again. But all companions have their time- you cant run with the Doctor forever, no one can. And a breath of fresh air is exactly what introducing new comapnions (or a new Doctor does) and goes a long way to explaining the show ridiculously long shelf-life (and here it is approaching 50 and finding more new viewers than ever before).

And when she meets the doctor he lifts her up and she just.. well, she just brilliant.- Norc

Thats the Doctor for you- he makes you see the best in yourself and then believe in it.

I haven't gotten to the ponds yet, I think I'll really like them, looking forward. I've seen them in interviews together and they have a really good chemistry so I think it'll be good.
About the newest companion however, I dunno how the character will be, but in that aweful titanic movie, she played a very strict (she was a maid) determined, positive and confident, and as you pointed out the doctors lifts them up, it like what the doctor do, he makes them do marveles (wrong spelled, I know, don't have time to check) things, but I think this might be different. I don't know. (I know Rose helped the doctor and made him better, but it did go both ways right). bt I dunno, I have yet to see.

this is her in the titanic shit. Probably doesn't say much about the character , but it's the actress in action and she is very fresh and sweet I think.
