[Official] Doctor Who Thread


Recommended Posts

I have no idea where people are getting this "Series 1" stuff from. Everywhere I've been says that it's called Series 5.

oh and all of these haters are hilarious, I don't see how you can judge a character from a rushed 15 second scene and a minute or so trailer, but then I guess it's the same whenever something "new" replaces the old.

Because "Series 5" is a reboot; new cast, new crew and new writers (being recorded in HD this series too) even has a brand new logo:

To the "haters" comment, firstly we humans are creatures of habit we don't like change (always find excuses to cling to the past) and secondly the same "hate" occurred when David first took over. After Matt has done a few shows (or a series) I'm sure most of the haters will be fine with him by then :)

never! she needs to return! :p

She'll probably cost to much now though :( with her being all golden globe nominated :(

She probably will too, the weeping angels are set to return (along with the Daleks, don't these guys get the hint? :laugh: ) and considering she's had experience dealing with them before, *maybe* she is called on to deal with them again but that could be just wishful thinking! :p

I don't mind the Daleks personally. I mean they are the primary villain and the episodes they have been involved in have mostly been good. Cybermen, not so much. Personally find them useless. At least the Daleks are strong and clever, not completely thick bare metal bones like the Cybermen.

One of the best regenerations stories ever. I loved how he got to visit all his friends one last time. I always thought Tom Baker's show was the best until now but I'll have to say that this one ranks right there beside it.

One thing I didn't get is what happened to the Master? Did he get sucked back with the rest of the Time Lords?

And I see why the Doctor is so scarred by the Time War. He had to turn against his own people there are the end.

I think the Master did get sucked in there with the Time Lords, but I'm also sure we'll see the Master again down the road :D

BTW, did any of you guys see the Catherine Tate show's Xmas special? With David Tennant as the "feminine" ghost of christmas present lol just awesome.

This. Every episodes that involved the Daleks, thus far, were quite epic, that had me on the edge of the seat. I'd definitely want to see more of the Daleks.

No, do you have a link to it plz ? Thx.

Was pretty epic on the classroom special last time too ;)

I've a question, after the doctor regenerate does he remember his life before he regenerated or does he forget everything?

He does remember everything, tho he might not know who is the new himself.

I dont think he got sucked in, Im sure he used the last of his lifeforce to finish them off, and just vaportated?

I love how he was refusing to regenerate though, Im guessing thats why his regeneration was so damaging to the tardis?

If he remembers why was he so upset and in tears when talking about it to Wilfred? :unsure:

Because that "persona" will die, and never come back (kinda) so in essence he dies as well. Plus, as an actor he was probably asking to make sure that kind of scene was emotional and all. I don't blame him since he was a major fanboy of the show to begin with :D

In an online interview with Music From The Movies, composer MURRAY GOLD has revealed some news about the next series of Doctor Who. In the article he states that:

? He will composing music for the new series and has arranged a new version of the theme tune.

? GARETH ROBERTS (The Unicorn & The Wasp, The Shakespeare Code) will be returning to write an episode, as will MARK GATISS (The Unquiet Dead, The Idiot's Lantern).

The Unicorn & The Wasp, The Shakespeare Code - Didn't like either of those, made the historical characters too simple and there was no real depth to anything.

The Unquiet Dead, The Idiot's Lantern - Better than the two above but uses zombie like characters for a chase in awkward moments. Good stories though.

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.
    • Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.
    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here are the anticipated specifications for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra based on previous leaks: 6.5-inch outer display and 8-inch inner display, 120Hz refresh rate, and 2,600 nits peak brightness Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of storage 4.1mm thickness when unfolded and a weight of 210g 200MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, 10MP or 12MP telephoto camera, 10MP cover camera, and 10MP selfie camera 5,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 As for the Galaxy Z Flip 8, the device is not expected to be a major departure from its predecessor, although it could become slightly slimmer. Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
