Doctor Who
 

Anybody watch it?

I have watched it since the Christopher Eccleston's Doctor, I prefer him the most.

The new episode was epic.

I am assuming you are talking about the American rerun broadcasts.

Yeah.

Re: Doctor Who
 

I used to watch Doctor Who while it was on Sci-Fi. I wish that it return to Syfy. :(

Re: Doctor Who
 

New season on BBC One and BBC America on April 23 - only two weeks to go! :D

Re: Doctor Who
 

I can't wait, although I'm pissed I only get out of work past 7 on a Saturday so I can't watch it as it airs. I will have to record it on my Sky+ box and watch it when I get back. Sucks because my friend will probably text me and tell me the ending before I've had chance to watch it.

Re: Doctor Who
 

I have never watched it. What is it about?
They are airing it on a not so famous greek channel latelly

Re: Doctor Who
 

Where do I begin...?

The Doctor is a time-traveller known as a Time Lord, from the planet Gallifrey. With his human companions, he travels through time and space, armed only with his wits and his Sonic Screwdriver, he fights the evils of the universe including Daleks, Cybermen, renegade Time Lord The Master, and other alien races. If he's fatally injured, he just regenerates into a new body (the explanation for recasting the role of the Doctor).

Currently in his 11th body, he travels with Amy Pond, and her new husband Rory Williams. In the season opener, they'll meet up with old acquaintance Professor River Song, who hides some dark secrets.

Bad news guys. From 1973 to 1976, the Doctor (in his third and fourth bodies) travelled with a journalist named Sarah Jane Smith. Her actress Elisabeth Sladen, who has starred in spin-off The Sarah Jane Adventures since 2007, has died aged 63 from cancer. A tribute will be on CBBC at 6.45pm on Saturday, right after Doctor Who finishes on BBC One.

Re: Doctor Who
 

Damn, rest in piece for her.
It sounds very interesting this show. I love time travelling so I may have a look at it

Re: Doctor Who
 

You'll find plenty of info (and spoilers!) at http://tardis.wikia.com - the show's been running since 1963 and has three ongoing spin-offs (Sarah Jane Adventures, Torchwood, and K-9) so there's a lot of material in the archive. Some of the 1960s episodes of Doctor Who you'll never see though - the BBC wiped them in the days before video recorders and multi-channel TV were available.

There was 26 seasons from 1963 to 1989, a TV movie in 1996, and then four modern seasons in 2005-2008, then a few stand alone episodes in 2009 before series 5 last year. The start of modern series 5 is a good jump on point, as that's just after the Doctor regenerated into his 11th body, and is when he meets his current companions.

Re: Doctor Who
 

I heard those episodes that were lost, were lost due to fire not intentionally. Either way can't see them, not that I would want to.

Re: Doctor Who
 

I asked my mom and she said she was watching it in the past. lol, she never told me about it

Re: Doctor Who
 

They were lost due to being overwritten (they reused the tapes), not because of fire.

OK, anyone watch today's new episode, The Impossible Astronaut? 10 minutes in, an unbelievable sight... I won't spoil it, but :eek:.

Also, Amy's up the duff! :D

Re: Doctor Who
 

Maybe I'm thinking of another show.

Had to work but DVRed it.

What the heck does up the duff mean?

Re: Doctor Who
 

Oh my god yesterday, they were quite interesting, and ya they diffenitly was a great series, i love the new doctor but to be honest my favorite would be Tom Bakers wit5h Tenantn coming in third.

Re: Doctor Who
 

My fav is the 9th Doctor and the kind of sort of clone of the 10th Doctor.

I can't believe Pond shot at a little girl.

Re: Doctor Who
 

Yes i agree, my god was that just shocking and i love the doctors "Amy What r u doing" in slow motion and imagine in his head " Okay wait does she hate being preagnent that much that she kills little girls"

Re: Doctor Who
 

Expecting a baby - Amy told the Doctor that she thinks she's pregnant.

Re: Doctor Who
 

Well, the way that she all but ran to the bathroom at the White House, kept holding her stomach....makes me think that she is.

Got to say, a great way to open the season! I'm looking forward to what's going to be happening the rest of the time.

One thing that made me start thinking with River talking with Rory in this episode: back when David Tennant was still the Doctor--I think it was in Silence in the Library--when we first met River, she told him "Spoilers" when he'd ask her a question about how he knew her. With both of their timelines being seperate from each other, would it be possible that she met him sometime in HIS past at any point?

Re: Doctor Who
 

If she met him in his before the library ep then he wouldhave known her.

Re: Doctor Who
 

fraid not, at some point the elevtheen doctor or maybe the twelve doctor will meet her for the first time, from her perspective, but by this point the doctor will technically be meeting her for the last time. or second last. the last time is when he gives her the sonic screw driver with the memory chip.

The reason she knew it was the doctor was the face thaat he got out of the tardis in the liabary looking for someone, so she put 2+2 together especially when he didn't reckingise her, so thats how she knew who the doctor was.

Re: Doctor Who
 

She knows who the Doctor's every face up until the last time the Doctor will ever meet her if not beyond that.

Re: Doctor Who
 

How does she know that, becasuse i honesrly don,t know

Re: Doctor Who
 

In the last episode aired, she explained this. They are meeting each other at different times. The Doctor is meeting her backwards, hence she says her future is his past.
If you remember Silence in the Libary, she looks into the Doctors eyes and says shes never seen them so young. This was the first time the Doctor had ever met her whilst for her, it was the final time. This also means the last time the Doctor will meet her, will be years into his future, more than 200 years if what the Doctor said before he was killed in the last episode was correct.

Re: Doctor Who
 

River possessed pictures of all the Doctor's incarnations (DW: The Time of Angels), though she did not know the order of the Doctor's incarnations.

Re: Doctor Who
 

The Sarah Jane Adventures has been axed. They're showing six already filmed episodes later in the year, but with the death of Elisabeth Sladen, they aren't making any more.

Re: Doctor Who
 

I just started watching it, finished the first season of the 2005 series in 2 days. I already watched a few episodes here and there with David Tenant and thought he was awesome. I thought I wouldn't miss Christopher Eccleston but dang, it's going to suck watching Tenant go.

Re: Doctor Who
 

I like it I used to watch it every Saturday or Sunday on my local PBS affiliate along with Blakes 7.

I want to watch it from the beginning so I can get all the important stuff like the Doctor's regenerations when they introduced villains, and monsters but since there are episodes that don't exist anymore I want to know what all the really important episodes are.

Re: Doctor Who
 

You need to watch the first, second, and last serials of the First Doctor era, as the second serial introduces the Daleks, and the Cybermen, in their debut, were the last villains he fought before his first regeneration. The second Doctor, watch the War Games. I'd say to watch any episode involving a companion leaving or joining, but the second Doctor's longest serving companion, Jamie McCrimmon, debuted in The Gunfighters, which is now wiped. :(

I recommend looking up episode summaries on http://tardis.wikia.com - you can get a list of episodes for each season by looking up Season ##.

Re: Doctor Who
 

Huh thanks.

Re: Doctor Who
 

Watched Season 2 finale today, I don't think a TV show has actually ever made me cry until now. It's going to be hard to watch Doctor Who without Rose. Can't wait to see her again.

Re: Doctor Who
 

Rose was awesome. The companion that comes after the next one is awesome, didn't like her accent though sounded to New Jersey to me.

Re: Doctor Who
 

That's too vague. You see, Donna was the main companion in series 4, but she first appeared in The Runaway Bride, the second Christmas special, the very next episode after Rose's exit. So did you mean Donna, or series 3's companion Martha? Either one could be interpreted as the next companion after Rose.

Re: Doctor Who
 

The runaway bride.

Vague because I couldn't remember their names & to lazy to look 'em up.

Re: Doctor Who
 

So you don't like Donna's accent? Don't watch The Catherine Tate Show then!

Re: Doctor Who
 

Never heard of it

Re: Doctor Who
 

:eek:You cannot be serious!!!
