[Official] Doctor Who Thread


Recommended Posts

I frankly can't see Doctor Who without David Tennant anymore. I mean I'm sure they will get someone else just as good, they always do, but he just IS Doctor Who to me now. Just as in the 80's I felt Mr. Scarf was Doctor Who, you know? :|

Not sure if you guys know:

Billie returns to the TARDIS

It's official: actress Billie Piper is stepping back inside the TARDIS to reprise her role in the cult sci-fi series Doctor Who.

UK paper The Mirror broke the news, which was quickly confirmed by the BBC. "We're delighted to officially confirm that Billie Piper will return as Rose Tyler in series four of Doctor Who," said an announcement on the show's official website.

Fans have hoped that Piper would return to the series ever since she quit at the end of season two, when her character Rose was exiled in a parallel universe. Recent rumours suggested she'd been offered a "small fortune" to reunite with co-star David Tennant, who plays the Doctor.

"Doctor Who is a big part of my life," Piper told the Mirror, explaining her decision. "I've missed it since I left and I love David Tennant."

The BBC revealed Piper will star in three episodes of season four, which is currently shooting in Cardiff, Wales. Looks like the Doctor will soon be inundated with ladies - in addition to Rose and his current companion Martha (Freema Agyeman), he'll be joined by comedienne Catherine Tate, reprising her role as Donna Noble, and Kylie Minogue, who's guest-starring in an upcoming Christmas special.

The forthcoming Doctor Who Christmas special will last for 71 minutes, according to the BBC, over ten minutes longer than the previous festive episodes.

The broadcaster also revealed that the special, entitled 'Voyage Of The Damned', will be screened at 6.50pm on Christmas Day on BBC One. The competition on ITV in the battle for ratings will be popular soap Emmerdale.

In addition, an hour-long installment of Doctor Who Confidential will be screened afterwards on BBC Three at 8.30pm.

'Voyage Of The Damned' features pop singer Kylie Minogue returning to her acting roots on board the Titanic, alongside David Tennant as The Doctor.

    • Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.

    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
