Just a note to true Dr Who fans,that season two will not be filmed in HI-Def,due to the extreme cost:

Thanks for your email. The new (second) series of Doctor Who is almost
Entirely 'in the can' and has been filmed on standard cameras rather
Than High-Def ones. There is some talk about the third series (due to be
Shown in 2007) possibly being recorded in Hi-Def, but that hasn't been
Confirmed or denied yet.

For a programme like Doctor Who, with expensive computer graphics,
Costumes and make-up, Hi-Def will bring lots of additional costs and
Expenditure, so such a move needs to be planned and prepared for very
Carefully.

Kind regards.

I am in the USA, and my father is absolutely obsessed with DR.WHO... I grew up watching it, I think my dad has every episode from every year on tape! The show is soooo cheesy, but I have to admit, I loved it when I was young! I'm sure my Dad is going to be taping the new episodes as well. I MIGHT watch it (who am I kidding, I will watch it, just don't tell anybody ;)

For all the lucky Brits on the site a reminder.

Just watched Dr Who on Telewest Replay,as only got back from hols today.Nice opening,chugging along,a bit sentimentle towards the end,but acceptable.Can't wait for the full moon next week... he... he.. hoowwwllll!! :D (for UK viewers)

OK so 2 parts in and I'm not 100% sure about this new hourish format.
I'm so used to story's being over 4-6 episodes with progression and cliff hangers that this all seems a little to rushed.

On the whole thought I'm very glad it's back and getting serous viewing figures.

School Reunion was okey.Nice to see Elizabeth Sladen,and good old K-9 save the day.Have to admit though,that David Tenant is becoming more,and more like David Brent every week. :D
Don't forget,May 15th,and it's Rise of the Cybermen.Should be a goodie.

[Curlyben]

Oooooooooooo Cyberman are looking really mean.

They are going to kick some bottom ;)

Watched The Girl in the Fireplace,last night.How good was that episode.After six re-writes,five goes at shooting the damn thing,the whole forty five minutes was superb. Guest star Sophia Moyles,real life girlfriend of David Tenant helped,but from start to finish,it was five star acting from everyone.One of the best Dr Who episodes I have seen in years.When it's shown in the States,and Canada,fans will be knocked out.

We return tonight as well :D:D

To the tune of The Lion Sleeps Tonight,so the ex-skeletal bones of the unsuspecting,were welded onto cyber-space.I thought a better tune would have been Walk like an Egyptian,but maybe the bosses thought better of that.So the Cybermen appeared,like some cross-dressing robots,with slightly dodgy silverware,and speech,"You will be deleated!" Too slow to catch a cold maybe,their military walk seemed a little Monty Python,but maybe that's too harsh.Without giving the game away,Rickey,or is that Mickey? Goes from zero,to hero,in part two,so said the script editor.Best sight of all,Roger Lloyd-Pack,in his wheel chair,as a demented Trigger (Only Fools and Horses),only this time,as the mad creator of the Cybermen.Great stuff.

Spoiler

Dont read on if you dont wish to know.




Rose Tyler,actress Billie Piper,is to (die) at the end of season two of Dr Who.In an episode called Doomsday,it will see both the doctor,and Rose,fighting for their lives,in what Russell T.Davies has called a "stunning exit".Kept under raps,the various leaks have prompted the BBC to finally admit that Billie Piper will be leaving at the end of season two.If you really want to know how Rose will meet her end... rumour has it,it's in battle against the Cybermen.

WHOAH!!

Amazing program that got me hooked! And I promised myself that I wouldn't, because it just seemed to be mums that were into it. But, I caved.

The eposode with the devil in was truly very good, and the new actor, david tennent? Am I right? Is genious. Funny as.

[Curlyben]

Oh yes they're back and now they are seriously annoyed,
And they've brought "friends".

So do we stand a chance against the Doc's TWO worst enemies??

Here's a taster

Well of course we do otherwise there wouldn't be a third series ;)

Confirmed.The new assistant to Dr Who is Freema Agyeman:

And she is absolutely gorgeous :D

[Curlyben]

Interesting.

Best line in the final episode of season two of Dr Who,came from the character Mickey,in reference to the Cybermen,talking to the Daleks:

"Stephen Hawking meets the speaking clock...." :D

Classic!
