[Official] Doctor Who Thread


Recommended Posts

The Doctor will be returning to the BBC this Friday to take part in the Beeb's Children in Need. The Doctor has a long tradition of helping out with the charity, and this year will be no different. Matt Smith will appear in a special prequel to this year's Christmas Special, according to the Doctor Who blog. It's said to feature a number of familiar faces and is written by show-runner Steven Moffat. It's likely the episode will have a running time no longer than 5-10 minutes.

An exclusive trailer for the Christmas Special will also be debuted during the evening, showing the Doctor with his new companion played by Jenna-Louise Coleman.

To see both, tune in to Children in Need on BBC One on Friday, November 16. If you miss them, both the special prequel episode and new trailer will be made available online shortly after.

Really enjoyed the throwback one David Tennant did with Peter Davison, Time Crash or whatever it was called, hope this one is funny.

Yeah one of my favourites, I hope both return for 50th

I hope they chuck Sherlock in with him. Seems like the only time such a crossover would ever seem appropriate, but then I guess Sherlock isn't really a show kids would know about.

"Christopher Eccleston gets asked about the 50th anniversary and says pretty much what you'd expect." This time around, Eccleston actually somewhat defied expectations by not outright saying he won't be in it, instead saying this:

"Would I like to be involved? If I told you that, I'd have to shoot you... [On what he'd like to see in the special] I've not even thought about it. It's so long ago for me that I haven't even thought about it.

    • Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations by Sayan Sen Microsoft releases new Windows Defender update packages very frequently to protect against various newly discovered malware. Once a while every three months or so, the company also pushes out these updates to Windows images (WIM and VHD) and ISOs, that are used to install Windows. Hence with the newest Windows 11 update available via the official MCT tool, you should get these definitions. This update package is necessary as a Windows installation image may contain old, outdated anti-malware definitions and software binaries. Aside from better security, these updates can also provide improved performance benefits in some cases. When a new Windows installation is set up, there may be a temporary security risk due to outdated Microsoft Defender protection in the OS installation images. This happens because the antimalware software included in these images might not be up to date. Thus Microsoft says that these updated definitions essentially help close this protection gap. Microsoft delivered the latest security definitions for Windows images via security intelligence update version 1.445.323.0. The Defender package version is also the same. It applies to Windows 11, Windows 10 ESU, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021, Win 10 Ent LTSC 2019, Win 10 Ent LTSB 2016, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2016. Microsoft writes: "This package updates the anti-malware client, anti-malware engine, and signature versions in the OS installation images to following versions: Platform version: 4.18.26040.7 Engine version: 1.1.26040.8 Security intelligence version: 1.447.236.0" From Microsoft's security bulletin, we learn that the security intelligence update version 1.447.236.0 was released early last month and adds threat detections for various malware like trojan, backdoor exploits, ransomware, stealers, AutoKMS, and more. For those wondering, the latest intelligence update is version 1.451.297.0 at the time of writing.
    • Hello, Hope all is well. I am in UK.  
    • I'm not happy with myself for it, but I've gone and got hold of it. Just another 45 minutes and I'll be Bond, James Bond. In my defence, IO's Hitman series is awesome, and I'm a sucker for 007. So while it might seem a bit simplified compared to Hitman, I'm sure I'll be right at home.
    • Or just check the script yourself ^^. I hate having a Microsoft account tied to my windows install.
