AlterNation Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 I think he could be very interesting as The Doctor, but every bloody time I look at him all I can do is imagine him swearing.

Jmerc Posted August 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Interesting note: Both he and Karen Gillian (Amy Pond/Williams) have returned to the series as a main role after their appearance in 'The Fires of Pompeii' episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1okr Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 IGN Article - Doctor Who: History of The Doctor's Regeneration http://m.ign.com/articles/2013/08/04/doctor-who-history-of-the-doctors-regeneration This is pretty cool. It shows all the Doctors and their Regeneration clips from the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masson Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 I think this is an interesting choice, I was expecting to see someone mid 20s again but this will hopefully provide a nice change of pace, as I thought Tennant and Smith were very similar in their portrayal of the Doc. On a side note, I don't particularly like the idea of using someone they've cast twice before, because I feel it ruins some of the continuity. I get it's been done before many times and he will probably do the role justice, it's just a little pet peeve of mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ska. Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Colin Baker was also cast in a role before becoming the Doctor and it didn't affect anything. As well as Martha. I'm really looking forward to what he can bring to the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MST3Claye Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 FINALLY! A Doctor Who thread! I think even more interesting is the part he was cast as in a certain popular movie that just came out recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1okr Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Saw the episode from Peter Davison transition to Colin Baker, baker is a dick when he sets up and looks at the camera. Lol Also saw the episode transition from Tennant to Smith. good episode. Only question I have though as I'm new to the series is does their regeneration process take one year to fully complete? The episode showed Tennant helping others towards the end then returning and asks the young lady what year is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delete Posted August 10, 2013 Report Share Posted August 10, 2013 In my opinion David Tennant was the greatest Doctor, I did like Christopher Ecclestone though. The next Doctor is the last whether we like it or not (I'm sure it'll be rebooted in a couple of years), the Doctor can only regenerate 13 times and so for that. I want the last Doctor to be Harry Lloyd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MST3Claye Posted August 10, 2013 Report Share Posted August 10, 2013 They already threw out the whole "limited to 13 regenerations" in an episode of The Sarah Jane Adventures. I think that was just there in the beginning because they had NO IDEA how popular the show would be and how long it would last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jmerc Posted August 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2013 Yeah I always thought they did have a limit... but I thought I was wrong. I guess they have removed it then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oresama Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Hasn't the twelve regenerations been brought up again, recently? Only question I have though as I'm new to the series is does their regeneration process take one year to fully complete? The episode showed Tennant helping others towards the end then returning and asks the young lady what year is it? No it doesn't. That was Rose, the Doctor's first companion of the revived series. If I remember correctly, the doctor was visiting people he encountered (whilst Tennant was the Doctor) before he actually regenerated. He couldn't actually visit Rose at present since he left her on Bad Wolf Bay, so he went back to see her before they met. When he asked her what year it was, her reply was January 1st 2005 which would be the year that Rose and the Doctor met. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MST3Claye Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 I only caught a couple of the Sarah Jane Adventures episodes, but I think it was the one where she was getting married or possibly the one with Jo Grant in it. I know the segment has been mentioned a few times because of it. Ok.. Wrong episode. It's TSJA episode - The Death of the Doctor.. http://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2010/oct/12/doctor-who-immortal-reveals-bbc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmerc Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 I never really liked TSJA, saw a couple of episode, some were good. It was too kiddy for me, which is okay cause thats what it was meant to be. http://mycountdown.org/fullpage.php?cp3_Hex=0F0200&cp2_Hex=426B83&cp1_Hex=F9F9FF&ham=0&img&hbg=0&hfg=0&sid=0&fwdt=150&lab=1&text1=Doctor%20Who%2050th%20Anniversary&text2=Anniversary&group=Special%20Day&countdown=Anniversary&widget_number=3010&event_time=1385164800&timezone=UTC 103 days (from this post) till 50th!!

Edit: I just read up on it and it looks as though you're right, I hate to say it but I want the 13th Doctor to be the last. The more doctors there are the more it's getting blemished.

MST3Claye Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Anyone else hear the rumors that BBC America isn't pleased with Capaldi as the next DR, and wants to do their own version? First I've heard of it. Kinda laughable rumor, too. Where's all the hate towards Capaldi coming from? Other than Twilight fan girls who wanted a young Doctor like Tennant and Smith? Pertwee was always my favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
