I believe the original Dr. Who series was better, and its delightful tackiness made it so. I must admit that I have seen only two episodes of the newer version, and was slightly dissappointed.


REMEMBER THIS: Nowhere in history has an atheist taken a human life in the name of his cause.

I havent really been able to watch most of the new series, due to having to fight my housemates for the remote, although when ive seen it, i kinda prefer the online games and fake websites the bbc keeps setting up

That which does not kill me postpones the inevitable.





I have been meaning to bring this thread back up. We finally have the first season where I am in the US!!! Dr. Who has such a special place in my heart. So far I think Eccleston is doing a great job, but I understand what you mean. He is a bit moody, but it isn't bugging me at this point.

I am really curious now to see Tennant and the cyberman! So glad to hear the series seems to be doing quite well.

I'm too young for it anyway, but I never liked "Dr. Who". The old "Battlestar Galactica" was ok though.

With the weird dog thing? Seems like they treated a monkey cruelly for that....

Get ready for a Doctor Who celebration!

The BBC plots a spectacular concert in aid of Children In Need…

[09 Oct 2006 5:42pm]

Since last year's extra Who footage caused a sensation on the Children In Need show, plenty of people have been wondering whether something similar would happen this year.

While it's not yet known whether we'll see a snippet between The Bride (Catherine Tate) and David Tenant's Doctor, the Beeb are certainly planning a small Who-related event to benefit the appeal

Oh, it's not much - just a gigantic, star-laden concert that will feature the BBC National Orchestra of Wales performing chunks of Murray Gold's themes set to a selection of visuals from the series at Cardiff's Millennium Centre. You might recall that the Centre features in the likes of Dalek and Boom Town, and will be invaded for the night by Daleks, Cyberman and, er, Russell T Davies with a microphone. The show's executive producer will be dragging current Who David Tenant and Murray Gold on stage with him for a Q&A session.

The concert will be recorded by BBC Radio Wales to be aired later and will also be filmed by the Doctor Who Confidential team for a special documentary likely to be timed with the arrival of the second Christmas special. "We are delighted to join forces with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales in aid of BBC Children in Need," Davies blabbed in a press release. "The evening promises to be an audio-visual spectacular. I can't wait to hear Murray Gold's extraordinary scores live on stage." And he really talks like that all the time, you know. No, honestly. He genuinely says things like "The evening promises to be an audio-visual spectacular" out loud.

It all kicks off at 6:30pm on Sunday 19 November. Tickets will cost between £10 and £20, with half price deals for those under 16. Ticket prices will include a donation to BBC Children in Need and the official programme will also have proceeds going to the BBC Children in Need Appeal. Tickets can be bought and booked directly from the Wales Millennium Centre from 20 October 2006, via their website here or by phoning 08700 40 2000.

'Torchwood' still hasn't finished shooting, but it should be an excellent show. My girlfriend is an extra on several episodes, actually.
