Id go for series 5 if you are going to watch any not series 6 as a start point.

Here you go- save your dosh till you decide if you like them or not.

Well who can blame him- not hard to see what the attraction there might be!!

Did you give 11th hour a go Mrs Figg? (link above)

I dont think my notebook is powerful enough to upload stuff, the last time I tried you remember it flipped out.

You dont need to uplaod Mrs Figgs- the dailymotion site is just like youtube- you just watch.

cool can you get Sherlock too?

Havent been able to find it at the mo- the BBC are pretty strict on pulling their stuff- that link to 11th hour will probably be gone in a week. Usually another one turns up anyway but so far not with Sherlock- they must have their best net hounds on it tracking any down.

Check your private messages, Mrs Figg, I might be able to help. There are a few good uploads of Sherlock to YouTube-style sites.

Oi Eldo- how dare you come on the Who thread to talk Sherlock when you too could be watching the 11th hour!
I'll not stand for it you know!

I'm not the one who brought it up, you know. And at least it's still a show from The Moff; isn't that close enough?

Maybe I can persuade you Eldo by pointing out 11th hour is written by moffat and directed by toby Haynes.

You've mentioned that before and I've already watched The Eleventh Hour. I liked it a bit but I didn't watch further.

Well now is your chance



Off you pop!

2011 iplayer stats are out.

'Doctor Who finished as the 7th most accessed programme on the BBC iPlayer for December 2011 and the 5th most accessed programme in Christmas Week, according to figures released by the BBC.
The BBC iPlayer hit record levels in 2011, with 1.94 billion requests across all platforms during the year. Doctor Who: The Impossible Astronaut finished as the 3rd most requested programme of the year. Top of the list was Episode 1 of the David Attenborough Natural History series Frozen Planet, To the Ends of the Earth. Second was Episode 2 of the comedy series Come Fly With Me.
Each episode of Season 32 of Doctor Who finished in the top 50 for the year, with Torchwood: Miracle Day Episode One just scraping in at number 50.
As a brand Doctor Who had over 25 million requests during the year. The top brand was EastEnders with 114 million requests, albeit spread over many more episodes. Top Gear had 29.6 million requests and The Chris Moyles Show had 26.3 million requests.
The first Matt Smith episode, The Eleventh Hour, remains as the most accessed programme ever on iPlayer.'- BBC

Looking good for Who don't fancy Torchwoods chances much though.

Watched the last episode of the Ecclestone Doctor. Silly to say the least. (Tennant looked cheerful though). My daughter breezed past and said that nothing about Dr Who was any good - the smartarse (I don't now where she gets it from! ) At that particular moment, I could see where she was coming from though. A bit over-melodramatic, what?

A bit over-melodramatic, what? - Orwell

lol- wait till you see Tennants last episode then!!

I'd recommend giving the 11th hour ago- link at top of page- its a lot more fun and I think has ideas about fairytale and youth that you may like underlying it.

I'll think about it. Actually, I should watch the latest Dr Who guy from the start. Saw much of the previous two series (with Eccky and Tenny). Dr Who is so hit-and-miss. Sometimes I ask, "Can I be bothered?" I never get an answer - and usually pick up my guitar...

Its one click away its the start of the new Doctor's run- enjoy yourself!

I've got a lot of time on my hands just now --- I'll see if I can find time.

I reckon first fifteen miinutes you will be sold Orwell! You love a good fairytale and series 5 is just that- a good fairytale.

Oh --- I'll do my best. No promises though...

All I can ask is you give it a go- after that up to you.

It better be, laddie!

Eccky, ECCKY? who the eccky thump is ECCKY?????

Oh dear Orwell- I don't think you should have called that lovely Mr Eccleston melodramtic! Might have ruffled a few feathers, and eels.
