Pond Life. These five shorts will feed into S7.

[W0NWILL]

Where do you get all this?

[Taggerung_of_Redwall]

I stay connected when I want to. That in particular I originally found from Steven Moffat's twitter feed a few days ago.

I liked the first few Pond Life shorts. The last one, not so much.

What did everyone think of the first episode of series 7?

[Redwaller]

Could someone explain to me what exactly is Doctor Who?

Could someone explain to me what exactly is Doctor Who?

  *Ahem*  Another way of explaining it would be Wonwill's way:

Okay, it's epic. And awesome. And epicer. I love it. It follows the story of the Doctor, who is an alien called a timelord. He always has a human female companion. He is immortal, though he can die. When it's time for him to die, he reincarnates, though he has to be on the Tardis (his spaceship) so that's how he would die-not being on the Tardis. To understand it, you have to watch it. It's on Netflix, and Netflix has a free trial.

Three latest doctors:

9th:


10th:


11th:


As you can see, I'm a big fan.

Count 'em, eleven incarnationz o' ze Doctor.

[Buzz_Bumble]

There is actually a 12th Doctor.

Peter Cushing (aka Grand Moff Tarkin in Star Wars and various characters in old horror movies) played Doctor Who in a couple of movies in the 1960s, but he's generally forgotten about and not considered a regeneration.

Zen 'e vaz another version o' ze eighth zen?

[Buzz_Bumble]

The eight Doctor, Paul McGann, is the one most fans wish they could ignore and forget about ... unfortunately he is an official regeneration.

Personally I've never seen the eighth Doctor, but I don't really like Colin Baker (6th), nor Sylvester McCoy (7th) with his poor Poirot impersonation, and I hate Christopher Ecclestone's (9th) grinning big-eared clown (Ecclestone's, thankfully very short, time wasn't helped by the writing idiocy of farting aliens and man-eating rubbish bins either).
