The Royal Mail has unveiled a special set of stamps for Doctor Who's 2013 anniversary.

First class stamps of all 11 Time Lords - from William Hartnell and Tom Baker to David Tennant and Matt Smith - will be available from March.

The new look Tardis is better than the old one, I think most people forget that no rooms in the Tardis are permanent, they can be created and deleted. I remember that one of the original reasons to update DT's Tardis was the quality of it when filmed in HD - I actually think this new set looks cheap in the background but still way better that the last, which was basically toy land.

I don't love the new opening, but I don't hate it either. It takes quite a while for the Tardis to enter the time vortex (which seems to be fixed now, no smoke everywhere, previously it looked like someone left a smoke machine floating in it.

I love Matt, I love Oswin, and I love them together.

Yeah, I'd love a set (or three) of those stamps. It's weird as well, since I used to collect stamps back in the 90's after my father handed his collection down to me (sorta). So, yeah I'd love a set. I do wonder if US citizens will be able to get them some how.

I don't see how they can go with another female companion who has the hots for the Doctor, especially with River still in the picture. Clara obviously had naughty thoughts about the Doctor's bum.

Seriously, this. What is going on here, he's married to River now. :huh:

Even if he wasn't I'm tired of the whole Doctor's companion is his girlfriend thing. That's why I loved Donna, she wasn't interested in him.

She has the potential to steal the show a bit, her character is very entertaining and actionable. I agree though am over the whole companion/gf thing I feel like since the end of time the show has veered too much to centring around the companions, needs to get back to its roots a bit perhaps. I guess it doesn't matter though, ill still keep watching it no doubt :p

Yes and we still don't know the following:

With the first Doctor he had a "Grand Daughter"

So the next Logical Choice -- That River + Doctor = Baby who then had had Susan twist.

Though who knows if they decide to go with Doctor's Daughter (the clone) had a baby which was Susan.

Though strange enough is How can someone live multiple times?

Or is this the resurgence of "Bad Wolf?" or "THE MASTER" Who created her ??

My favorite part was the Sontaran -- So who are you being now Sherlock Holmes.?

My favorite part was the Great Intelligence. If you've been watching Who since the start (or at least, all the back episodes) you know what I mean :)

Also, that Sontaran was just awesome. Brain damaged much? lol

That is okay my Potato headed friend... as the Doctor Kisses his head.... That was priceless.

      Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.

      And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂

      This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time by Sayan Sen Recently we covered a really good deal on an AMD RX 9070 three-fan model that's available at slightly above its MSRP. If you are looking for a GPU for 1440p gaming that's around the performance of the Nvidia RTX 5070 you should most definitely check it out. Let's say that you are looking for a monitor to pair that up with too. The Samsung 49" G9 curved QD-OLED superultrawide is a good option that can provide an immersive experience. However despite being a very good deal currently (at $855), it may seem unaffordable to you, or you may simply not want to spend as much on a monitor. In that case Dell's S2725QS can be a very good option as it's on sale at the moment for its lowest price in over six months (purchase link under the specs table down below). The big highlight of the Dell S2725QS is its 27-inch IPS panel with a 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) resolution, offering a high pixel density that can make text appear sharper while also providing plenty of screen space for productivity and media consumption. The display supports a refresh rate of up to 120Hz through both HDMI and DisplayPort, making it suitable not only for everyday desktop use but also for smoother gaming and scrolling. AMD FreeSync Premium support is included as well, helping reduce screen tearing during gaming sessions. The screen has fairly good brightness and color accuracy so you can use it for general work purpose, though photo/video editing is probably not going to be the best match for this. The technical specs of the Dell S2725QS are given in the table below: Specification Value Viewable Screen Size 27 in (68.58 cm) Screen Mode 4K UHD Maximum Resolution 3840 × 2160 Maximum Preset Resolution 3840 × 2160 @ 120 Hz Standard Refresh Rate 120 Hz Panel Technology In-plane Switching (IPS) Backlight Technology LED Edgelight System Pixel Density 163 PPI Response Time 8 ms GTG, 5 ms GTG, 4 ms GTG Horizontal Viewing Angle 178° Vertical Viewing Angle 178° Brightness 350 cd/m² (nits) Native Contrast Ratio 1500:1 Color Support 1.07 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% sRGB (CIE 1931) Adaptive Sync AMD FreeSync Premium HDCP Support Yes Mount Type Panel Mount VESA Mount 100 × 100 mm Maximum Height Adjustment 13 cm Tilt -5° to 21° Swivel -30° to 30° Pivot ±90° Stand Adjustments Tilt, Swivel, Height, Pivot Glass Hardness 3H Horizontal Frequency 27–270 kHz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Vertical Frequency 48–120 Hz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Video Inputs 2 × HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3), 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3) Operating Temperature 0°C to 40°C Storage Temperature -20°C to 60°C Operating Humidity 10%–80% (Non-condensing) Storage Humidity 5%–95% (Non-condensing) Get it at the link below: Dell S2725QS 27-inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor: $218.49 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $280) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
