Sontarans, eh? Interesting... my money's on the Genesis Ark containing none other than the Kandyman! :eek: ;)

Haha - nice one! :D Oooh, oooh, what about the return of Kamelion? He'll come in and save the day! :eek:

God, I'd blanked that one out with much of the Sylvester McCoy era. Did Bassett's ever go ahead with the copyright infringement suit?

I don't think it ever went to court or anything, but the BBC did agree there was a (coincidental!) resemblance and they wouldn't feature the character again, much to the disappointment of Whovians everywhere. :D

Thanks. If only Coca-Cola had registered a logo that looked like Bonnie Langford :cool:
 
Just downloaded the Christmas Invasion and I take back what I said. Apart from the ending it's a really good episode. Don't know how it's going to be explained come this Christmas when aliens don't invade...
 
Whew!, I leave you guys for a couple of days and you go and post 76 times! :eek: . It's taken me ages to catch up so please forgive me if I missed something very important as I only skirted through a lot of the posts (mainly "deus ex machina")

God knows what you lot will be like after tonight's finale (lots of white text for those not on this side of the pond I hope) :)

Nah we'll just print it in black lol. If someone doesn't want to know what happened why would they be snooping round Doctor Who forums? Sheer stupidity if you ask me. :p

Poor ol' Shard will have to suffer a self imposed exile for a day or two then, shame ;)
 
So tell me Metal Zombie have you been a lurker for long on MacRumors and if yes why'd it take you so long to post to this thread because it's quite obvious that you have a superior knowledge of the Who world than say me (lifelong fan since the Pertwee days, but rarely ever watch an episode again after the first time, Genesis of the Daleks being the only exeption :cool: )

Just curious :)

Iv'e been a lurker to this post and I had always often viewed Macrumors. I just don't like forums in general. I find there are too many people with terrible opinions, or awful social skills. That's why they're on forums!

Not you lot though... ;)

The people on this thread are quite affable, but I agree that there can be people who you feel are acting like "cyber warriors" on most forums :(

But anyWho I'm looking forward to tonight (especially as there's a load of crap on today) and record it with EyeTv just in case it turns out to be a classic (wont hold my breath though)

I thought Army Of Ghosts was the best new episode they have ever done, so I'm crossing my fingers for Doomsday.

Oh and I forgot to mention how addictive forums are! My myspace account only lasted 2 months, I had to rid myself of it lol. I spent far too much time on it! As I am on this thread.

And while I'm on the subject I shall not be adding any more replies on Macrumors after today so bon voyage, nice talking to you all. :)

Oh well I'm sure we can white it out for a few days before Shard downloads it. :)

Thanks man, it's appreciated. ;) I'm usually d/ling the thing right after it airs, and watch it during the evening (my evening that is!) but there's still a several hour gap. Also, I'm going out tonight, so I'm not sure when I'll actually be able to watch it. Regardless, you can rest assured I'll be posting my thoughts here once I do view the finale. :cool:

Permanently, or just for a little while? Regardless, nice having you around. Thanks for adding to our discussion here, and at least come back and post a link to your "Who Encyclopedia" when you have it finished. :)

Hmm, "Metal Zombie".... are you in actuality a Cyberman? :eek: :p ;) :D

Maybe maybe...

I have to go cos I can't stand spending so much of my time on forums. Look out for planet14.co.uk, my website, which will be up in September. It'll be worth it, otherwise I wouldn't be making it (and spending time here is time away from the website)!

My sentiments exactly. Always nice to have another Whovian around. :)

That was my thought when I first saw someone posting with that username in this thread. :D

I'll be sure to check your site out once you've got it up and running, Metal Zombie.
 
Well here we are. at time of writing it is 18:59. EyeTV is caching up BBC1. gonna be great :)

had loads of little things to say but i'm a little too late now. been talking with Caroline though. I'll post the questions later, when its too late :)
 
How fantastic was that? :) :cool:

Won't say anymore to give everyone a chance to catch up, but that was such a great episode. Love it :)
 
you're not the only one! absolutely great. splendid and tremendous as Alan Partridge would say.
 
I was really excited aswell (like a kid), expecting it to be as good as the 1st part :D . It was excellent but alas disappointing, like nearly all the 2nd parts are. Some arsey points and notes:
1) Dalek "This is not war this is pest-control". Oh dear.
2) Dalek "You are only superior in one respect.. You are better at dying". Oh dear, oh dear.
3) Daleks aren't sealed inside their casing (see Dalek RTD) so why can't they touch the Ark (Dalek cases shield the 3) void residue presumably).
4) Funny how the Genesis Ark looks like Dalek technology (including the hand print).
5) The glasses (eh how does that work?).
6) Shame nobody told the Mill (CGI team) that the 3D glasses are blue and red (not green and red as seen through the glasses).
7) The Cyber Yvonne. Oh dear.
8) Presumably the void stuff is not in the void when you come and go into it (otherwise its not a void lol)
9) How are the clamps on brickwork/plaster strong enough to stop the Doc and Rose from being sucked in?
10) Pete catching Rose at the end was the best bit but how? (Do we care?)

Oh P.S.
The Daleks have had trans-dimensional science (bigger on the inside) for donkeys years. The Doc must have said the Ark is Time Lord science cos the Time Lords built it.

And where did the black Dalek go?.. :D
