The Doctor Who 2008 Christmas special finished filming last month and we're hoping to see a teaser trailer at the end of episode 13 'Journey's End'!

The Christmas special features the return of The Cybermen and is set in Victorian England. The cast includes Dervla Kirwin and also David Morrissey, an impersonator who tries to pass himself off as the real Doctor!

Here's a pic of the two David's (or should I say two Doctors) on location in Gloucester:

No, but I've been wondering what it is exactly. Perhaps its Dalek Caan, blasted apart by Davros' daleks - because the Cult of Skaro were on the emperor's force...

Damn! I was half right! It was Dalek Caan.

What a fantastic episode! They didn't put a trailer in for next week either. I don't think the doc will regenerate because theres been no rumours of a new actor.

I have to agree, im sure there would have been alot of rumours around this if it was to but we will se:):)

That was a great episode, i have to say i never watched what i refer to as the "old" doctor who's (before Chris E and David) but i have to say Dr who just seems to be going from strength to strengt:):)

Thought I better act quick before you stole my idea.

So did I get this right - when Dalek Caan did his "emergency temporal shift" in the Empire State Building episode he somehow manages to re-enter the Time War and save Davros?

I'd love for them to re-visit the Time War which seems possible now - it would make a few good episodes (perhaps even an entire Season)!

Anyway - I bet BeLGaRaTh is happy about this "everlasting death" which appears to be Donna's fate! ;)

Yes, but drove him insane in the process.

The Doctor should have known better to offer Caan a second chance!

I was slightly disapointed with the Shaddow Proclamation - thought that would have been... well... grander. But I don't think we've seen the last of them.

Yes, I think the Doctor not listening to the surrender command from the Shadow Proclamation will give much reason for reprecussions in a future storyline.

I don't get it. Why did the Doctor regenerate? I thought a Dalek attack would kill a Time Lord outright. If he can withstand an attack from a Dalek (albeit it didn't seem he was fully hit - perhaps this is why he was able to regenerate) how do you kill a Time Lord? There shouldn't have been any Time Lord deaths in the Time War, they should have all just regenerated? Right? Dammit, gotta stop nitpicking! :p

Grandad: "Err no, she says there naughty"

      Dude get a clue, LTSC is Enterprise, not even legal for consumers, and ESU is not mainstream support cycle, just an extended security updates period.

      Nvidia is your issue more so than linux itself. I did used it for a while with an old 1060 3gb, but using propietary drivers was kind of messy.
