Members Faulkner Posted March 8, 2022 Members Share Posted March 8, 2022 Makes sense. Would be weird to see his loner Doctor palling around trading quips with 10 and 11. I feel the same way about Capaldi’s Doctor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted April 17, 2022 Members Share Posted April 17, 2022 What a thrill. Spoilers for the Thirteenth Doctor's upcoming finale: The end of this sorry era cannot come soon enough, now for two more very good reasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted April 17, 2022 Members Share Posted April 17, 2022 So glad to see Ace back, the bright spot of the classic series’ final days. That said, this whole Chibnall era has been seriously boring and messy long overdue to end. Although I’m not sure what an RTD 2.0 era will bring. LOL speaking of which I keep seeing a lot of talk that Tennant is coming back to the role just with a different Doctor personality. I can’t tell if it is just speculation or if there is some actual truth to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 20, 2022 Author Members Share Posted April 20, 2022 Tegan is one of my favorite Doctor Who companions of all time. Some people love to say all she did was moan, but she was actually extremely important in paving the way for the more complex companions of the revival series - we saw various members of her family (at least three, in three different stories) and we also saw a number of stories and key events through her eyes. She even learned to pilot the TARDIS (sort of). I knew there had been plans over the years to bring Ace back but I never thought we'd see Tegan again. I'm very torn about this, because I truly disliked Tegan's exit - it was forced, grimdark in all the ways that epitomize how detrimental Eric Saward was to the show, and felt too small and rushed for a character of Tegan's longevity. I never felt that should be her final moment on the show. I'd love to believe this can be a long-overdue chance to right that wrong. Yet, if she is returning just to be killed off, bait and fodder for a finale almost no one is invested in, then it will probably kill the last bit of good will I have left for modern Who. I desperately hope that isn't going to happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted April 25, 2022 Members Share Posted April 25, 2022 A lovely cover, if nothing else. I am amused the Ace shot is clearly just derived from a well-known screencap from the Blu-Ray promotional skit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted April 26, 2022 Members Share Posted April 26, 2022 Rakhee Thakrar rumors are swirling again re: the Fourteenth Doctor under RTD. I know @DRW50knows her from one of the UK soaps - I can't recall which one. But these didn't pan out on something else awhile back, so I doubt it will here. One never knows. It seems it has been corroborated a bit more, though, that Chiwetel Ejiofor was offered the Eleventh Doctor under Moffat and turned it down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted April 26, 2022 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2022 Yes. She was superb on EE. She also did a Big Finish audio. She deserves better than the racist, sexist hatred she would get here. I hope she says no if she is asked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted April 29, 2022 Members Share Posted April 29, 2022 (edited) Longtime DW director Euros Lyn, who was a staple of the original RTD era, is the director for Netflix's new gay YA romance series Heartstopper. It's very cute. Edited April 29, 2022 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 3, 2022 Author Members Share Posted May 3, 2022 (edited) If any of you get MeTV, the next episode of Collectors Call (which airs on Sunday I believe) is going to have some Doctor Who collectibles, and included a glimpse of Lisa Whelchel dressed as the Fourth Doctor. It makes me happy that even after all these years, he is still the most iconic Doctor. Edited May 3, 2022 by DRW50 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
