[Official] Doctor Who Thread


Recommended Posts

Loved it, only stopped being glued to it so I could go to play.com and pre-order it on bluray!! :)

PS - gotta say it again: Matt is perfect, Karen is luscious and Stephen is the best Who writer ever!!!!!

To form, BBC One performed strongly throughout primetime. At 6pm, the Doctor Who special pulled in 10.3m (39.8%), up 300k on last year, then a festive edition of Strictly Come Dancing - won by John Barrowman - drew 9.4m (34.4%), outdoing Coronation Street's 9m (33.1%) for ITV1.

Dr. Who Marathon Day on Space. I just watched the episode/tv movie with Bus 200 and the stringrays who create a wormhole.

"Planet of The Dead" - one of the special episodes for when Tennant was off doing other things for a year. What did you think of it?

It was fun. My wife continued to talk about everything that needed to be done today to hosts guests tomorrow but what can you do, eh?

I watched this but I was struggling to follow it, normally I'm not one to struggle but it just didn't capture my attention at all. The Doctor needs to stop all this "bow ties are cool" "yeah, it works like this...just shut up" sort of talk, it''s getting quite frustrating hearing the same things over again.

Well it's certainly my favourite Christmas special of hte bunch, and probably the most Christmassy too (: I like the direction Moffat is taking Who, much better than Davis' stuff >.<<img>

I agree. I loved the show. Moffat is definitely on to something here.

Just finished watching all the specials again, the last bit at the end of 'The End of Time' kills me every time i see it "I dont want to go....", makes me appreciate DT all the more and reminds me how much i detest Matts Doctor.

i am a guy and i will say this i teared up near the end for this Christmas special it just got to me so bad i dont know why but i loved it

yeah it was really sad because even though they didn't show it, you know what the outcome is :cry:

+1 the end to that episode is amazing, never fails to make me tear up :cry:

Indeed. David Tennant's ability with the darker, more emotional scenes is what separates him from the others.

    • Google's NotebookLM gets some useful features you may have been waiting for by Aditya Tiwari It's been three years since Google introduced its AI-powered note-taking and research app, NotebookLM. Just when Apple is about to kick off WWDC 2026, the search giant has announced a platter of new NotebookLM features that add agentic capabilities in chat and more advanced reasoning. For starters, NotebookLM now draws its fuel from Gemini 3.5 and Antigravity to improve accuracy and reliability. One of the things people have been asking for a long time is more transparency into the thinking steps. NotebookLM now shows expanded thinking steps in chat, providing better visibility into the thinking process. Google compared the upgraded NotebookLM with prior versions and found that it "achieved an average win rate of over 65% — a 15% point margin above parity — across our top five core evaluation dimensions," including accuracy & quality, multilingual support, large document analysis, document creation, and advanced research. It showed substantial improvements in analyzing large documents, achieving a 69.9% win rate. The system also delivered "exceptional performance" in advanced web research and source discovery with a 78.2% win rate. The AI research tool now generates outputs in more formats. You can give instructions to guide the outputs and download the generated files from the studio panel. Here are the newly supported formats: PNG and SVG for data visualizations and charts PDFs, docx, markdown, and text files for documents PNG, JPG, and GIF for images JSON and CSV for structured data XLSX for Microsoft Excel PPTX for Microsoft PowerPoint You can make edits after the outputs are generated. The feature is available globally; therefore, you can provide directions in one language and create outputs in another. Google said that it's also making it easier to get started with a project in NotebookLM. Instead of having a list of sources beforehand, you can even start with loose ideas, and NotebookLM can help build the repository of sources through the chat. For instance, you can find primary sources in other languages to get new perspectives or explore related works of an author. All of these new features are rolling out globally for those who can loosen up their pockets. They are available to users with Google AI Ultra and all Workspace business customers with AI Ultra access. Google has plans to expand them to more users in the future.
    • "...will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update...". Three names that all refer to Windows Update. Does the author even understand what he is writing about?
    • and somehow windows is the only one with issue every patch tuesday is a mess, android macosx have all that and it never had issues locking people out of their own data.
    • It's the ol': I told my kids I was older than Google and they thought I was joking. For me I was born the same year as the internet
