[Official] Doctor Who Thread


Recommended Posts

A BBC spokesperson confirmed to Digital Spy: "Alex Kingston will be returning to Doctor Who in the new series featuring Matt Smith. Viewers will have to wait and see who she plays and how her character fits into the series."

Kingston is thought to be returning for a two-episode stint.

:D

She better play Professor River Song (or whatever her name is other than Professor lol) or I'll kill people!

I"ll give him a chance, people can be so cruel sometimes. People said the same thing about Tenant when he replaced Chris ??? and look how that turned out. Same when Daniel Craig became the new Bond and he nailed that role. I'm open to this guy, because it's not like Tenant was fired to get this guy in he left of his own accord.

I've actually just started watching Doctor Who about a week ago, and I've been mainlining it like mad. I'm at the end of the third series, just watched Blink. Such a creepy yet awesome episode. :laugh:

I'm currently watching Torchwood series 1 before getting to the finale of DW series 3. Mainly to get some more insight on Jack, but also because it's a cool series, and I wanted to watch Children of Earth too.

David Tennant as The Doctor was perfect.. now even the way Matt looks has me doubting him.

"Doctor Who's new look branded a fashion failure"

"More like a geography teacher on a field trip than a time lord battling aliens"

"The latest Doc seemed to have travelled back in time to the place fashion forgot"

David had the eyes, the looks, and the voice for his character. His voice and eyes said "I'm a time lord and I've seen things you can't even begin to imagine". The way he dressed for the character was good, Simple. A little wacky with wearing the converse sneakers grouped with a nice suit. Heck I would prefer to see Christopher Eccleston again out of the blue then Matt Smith. Because the more regenerations the doctor goes though, the more evil-er he gets. Right? That's why earlier on the Doctor had to stop his 13th incarnation from happening. If I remember right of-course.

Pictures of filming on Series 5 of DOCTOR WHO have thrown up some interesting points. If you have a closer look at the wreckage it states BYZANTIUM (close up below). Could this be a reference to River Song's comment to The Tenth Doctor, "Crash of the Byzantium, have we done that yet?" (SILENCE IN THE LIBRARY, 2008)

    • Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.
    • YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    • Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
