Earlier in the week, Peter Davison opened up the possibility of the fifth Doctor making an appearance in the 50th anniversary special when he mentioned he owned a copy of the script.

Female First are now reporting that he will appear in the special. However before we get too excited Davison doesn?t specifically say it?s for The Day of the Doctor, only that he?s doing something for the 50th.

He said: ?I?m making an appearance somewhere over that period of time but I can?t reveal in what.

?I can?t reveal anything specific about it. I?m not allowed to.

?It is a big year for the show and we?re all doing our bit for it. Trust me.?

^ They seem to be keeping everything under tight security. Only a few tidbits here and there come out.

 

The promo pic was the only proper stuff we have seen so far, expect more beginning of October

I don't know if I should be grateful or not for the lack of official teasers.  I really want to see the trailer but once I do then there is no going back.  I can control my anticipation right now as my mind cant begin to conceive what possibilities may unfold.  I know that in reality I may be let down by another Moffat fairytale but I'm really hoping this satisfies my Dr Who needs.

If you missed out on tickets to the official Doctor Who 50th Celebration taking place at ExCel in London from the 22nd - 24th November, the BBC are offering fans a last chance to get hold of tickets. Due to phenomenal demand, the event sold out almost immediately when they went on sale in July; however, limited numbers are now available to purchase. 

 

To ensure that everyone has a fair chance of securing a ticket, they will only be available through a ballot. The ballot is open now and runs until 10am BST on Monday 30th September. The lucky applicants will be notified on Tuesday 1st October and then have until 10am BST on Thursday 3rd October to complete their purchase. Any unclaimed tickets will go into a further ballot. 

 

Applicants can select their preferred date and entry group and specify the number of tickets that they require (up to 4) at the time of entering the draw. The ballot does not include any pre-purchase of merchandise, autographs or photographs. TARDIS tickets are sold out and will not be included. Ticket prices are ?45 for adults, ?20 for children and ?104 for a family ticket (two adults and two children, prices exclude booking fee).

 

Entries to the ballot can be made online or by phone.

Steven Moffat has said that Peter Capaldi?s past appearances in the Whoniverse will not actually be ignored and hinted they may serve as a plot point.

 

Speaking in an interview with Nerd?, he said: ?We are aware that Peter Capaldi?s played a big old part in Doctor Who and Torchwood before and we are not going to ignore the fact.

 

?I remember Russell [T Davies] told me that he had a big old plan as to why there were two Peter Capaldi?s in the Who universe: one in Pompeii and one in Torchwood. When I cast Peter and Russell got in touch to say how pleased he was, I said, ?Okay, what was your theory and does it still work?? and he said, ?Yes it does. Here it is??

 

?We?ll play that one out over time. It?s actually quite neat.?

 

He adds: ?The face is not set from birth. It?s not like he was always going to be one day Peter Capaldi. We know that?s the case because in The War Games he has a choice of faces. So we know it?s not set, so where does he get those faces from? They can?t just be randomly generated because they?ve got lines. They?ve aged. When he turns into Peter he?ll actually have lines on his face. So where did that face come from??

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By PsYcHoKiLLa · Posted

      Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.

      This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
