Title: Doctor Who
Post by: DJ Doena on May 30, 2009, 08:14:38 PM
What seems to be a millenia ago* I watched some Dr. Who episodes on TV and now I decided to plunge in again and ordered the first season of the new series (with David Tennant as the tenth Time Lord). Hope it's worth it.
Here's David and Catherine Tate on a Red Nose Day special:
*but that can't be. I was in Asia a millenia ago (wasn't to keen on the crusades) and they didn't have TVs there.

Yeah, they're pretty good and Tenant makes a great Doctor! Have you seen the Christopher Eccleston ones?
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: DJ Doena on May 31, 2009, 07:19:13 AM
I don't know which Doctor it was back then. I watched it in the early nineties but the episodes could be from any time.

No, Eccleston was the brand new Doctor in 2005 when the BBC relaunched it, but despite being perfect in the role, he decided he didn't want to be typecast and stepped down. Tenant has now done three series plus specials and three or so in the pipeline, but the next full series will be with Matt Smith.
Early 90s? That could have been the film with Paul McGann which bore very little resemblance to the series! If that's all you've seen so far you're in for a treat... :P

No it was the series, it ran about 5 o'clock in the morning on Saturdays and was about 25 minutes long. From what I remember I'd date the episodes in the 70s.

Oh sorry, I misread your earier post and thought you'd been watching a current series. Well, despite some good ideas and great atmosphere, I always found Dr. Who to be very silly and cheap, but I really enjoy the new ones. I'm not sure now which one you're getting (first new Dr. Who, or first Tennant) but either way they're worth seeing.
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: DJ Doena on May 31, 2009, 02:45:22 PM
And I already wondered why the guy didn't look like Tennant. I thought Tennant had been the Time Lord since the restart.
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: Najemikon on May 31, 2009, 02:55:45 PM
:laugh: Don't be concerned though. The real star of the new Dr. Who is the writing and Eccleston would have been as huge as Tennant, if he'd continued.
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: DJ Doena on June 11, 2009, 09:32:20 PM
I've watched the first season series now and I really liked. It was only then that I recognized Eccleston as the invisible guy from the first season of Heroes. I agree that Eccleston could have been great as The Doctor. Now let's see how Tennant is doing.
Second series is ordered.
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: Najemikon on June 11, 2009, 11:44:22 PM
Glad you enjoyed it! Personally I do prefer Tennant, but a lot of that is because he's had so much more time in the role that he inhabits it very well indeed now. By the way, do these sets include the specials? I'm sure the regeneration was part of a Christmas special, because I remember Rose was very good at trying to hide him while he recovered, all the while wondering who the hell he was! :laugh:
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: DJ Doena on June 12, 2009, 09:50:19 AM
No, the regen was in the last two minutes of the last episode. It basically ended with the scene you see in the YT video. But the xmas special is part of the second series.
Practically every disc has some sort of special feature, e.g. Interview with Christopher, Deconstructing Big Ben, Designing Doctor Who, The Adventures of Captain Jack, ...
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: Najemikon on June 12, 2009, 12:30:58 PM
Ah yes, of course. Doctor Who always ends with the regeneration. The Christmas special picks it up immediately.
I'd forgotten about Captain Jack. Are you aware of the excellent spin-off, called Torchwood? It is a slightly more adult take on the Doctor Who world. They don't really do crossovers (except Jack is a regular guest on Who and the whole team were involved against the Dalek's once), but their stories sometimes deal with the fall-out from the Doctor's escapades.
There's another spin-off called The Sarah Jane Adventures, which is very much for younger kids, but does feature the wonderful K9. They were reintroduced via the proper stories and I think a scene with K9 and Mickey in a car is my favourite. I seem to remember Giles was the villain that week! Oh, and Spike popped up in Torchwood too. ;)

Slightly gonna have to disagree with you about Torchwood.
The first season is awful.
The Second season is very good.
Unfortunatley watching series one is quite important to fully understanding series two.
Plus James Marsters does a cracking job in his guest role.

Certianly it got better, but I felt it was always a good idea that fit in well with Doctor Who, but I never watched it religously. I was just glad it existed! In the middle of all the reality crap, Who and Torchwood might as well have been solid gold... :shrug:
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: DJ Doena on June 12, 2009, 11:23:52 PM
From what point exactly did Torchwood branch off?
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: Najemikon on June 12, 2009, 11:44:04 PM
Torchwood gets mentioned occasionally throughout Doctor Who without it being seen. I do like how they feed other organisations in! The other that gets mentioned is Unit. It's cute how they all know about Doctor Who and see him as an ally, whether he likes it or not! A recent one with Lee Evans was hilarious.
I seemed to remember they were more involved by the end of series two and while Who was on a break, series one of Torchwood aired. I went to Wikipedia to clarify and they are predictably spoilerific! But this paragraph is quite neat:
Quote
The premiere episode "Everything Changes" was written by Russell T Davies and serves to introduce the main characters and roles within the series, using newcomer Gwen as the audience surrogate in a similar style to the introduction of the companion characters in Doctor Who. The second episode, titled "Day One", aired immediately after the first. It continues Gwen's neophyte role and includes a classic "sex monster" science fiction storyline[63] in the vein of The Outer Limits episode "Caught in the Act" and Angel's second episode "Lonely Hearts". The first 13-episode series ended with a two-parter on 1 January 2007. The first part, entitled "Captain Jack Harkness", is a love story set in wartime Britain, with a subplot which serves to push the setting towards an "apocalypse" for series finale "End of Days". It deals with the ramifications of diseases and persons from throughout history falling through time and across the universe to arrive in the present day, and particularly in Cardiff. The episode also sets up Jack's return in the Doctor Who episode "Utopia".
What I didn't know is that Davies had the idea for Torchwood long before he was tasked with reinventing Who. Certainly Jack being so openly bisexual is probably down to him.

Post by: Najemikon on January 03, 2010, 06:21:32 PM
Just dug up this old topic because I wanted to comment on the finale of Doctor Who which I just caught up with. This was the last one with David Tennant and he regenerated into Matt Smith (hope that's not a spoiler! It's kind of how Who works ;)).
It was simply magnificent, if a bit indulgent for various reasons, but it was indulgent for the viewer as well and a lovely way to close it, with several old characters getting cameos. His "assistant" was Bernard Cribbins returning as Wilf from the Catherine Tate series and he turned out to be very important indeed. It's the perfect example of what Karsten said about character development being placed above plot; Who can be dreadfully contrived and flippant with its own logic, but it's a means to an end and that characters journey has been superb in the hands of Tennant. His very last line is a killer.
Part of the reason I wanted to comment is to reassure people who might be reluctant about diving in on such a long running series. Eccleston only did the one, but the following Tennant years and specials have now been finished properly and although it will continue with Matt Smith, that could be an entirely different direction. So don't think that if you buy series one and two, you'll be committing yourself to six plus series because each Doctor has his own path to follow.

I have to admit I shed some tears at "The End of Time" from the moment he said "It's starting" until the above spoilered line. It was great to see everyone again, even though it was only for a cameo. I still hope we'll see some of them again - at least for Martha and Mickey it shouldn't be a problem story-wise. If they wanted to (and it's Doctor Who where everything is possible) they even could make the Eleventh Doctor travel through the barrier of dimensions and meet

Well, the 11th Doctor is now underway in the guise of Matt Smith. The first episode was ultimately a bit hectic, but perhaps they were trying to keep everything moving and fun so you wouldn't really pay attention to the new bloke, because obviously, he'll be rubbish.
Except he isn't. You can believe this is the same character as played by Tenant, but with a difference and he really hit the ground running. Although the youngest actor to take on the Doctor, he appears young and old at the same time, if that makes any sense. The opening sequence as a small child tells him about the scary crack in her room while trying to find him some food he likes (he finally settles on fish fingers and custard!) is a joy. Perfect Who setup.
So we've got a new Doc, a new Tardis, a new Sonic Screwdriver and of course, a new assistant. And she is absolutely gorgeous! Stunning. Whoever had the idea to contrive her introduction as being a kiss-o-gram dressed as a policewoman in a very short skirt is a bona fide bloody genius. Those legs... :drooling: The accent just rounds off the whole effect. :surrender:
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: DJ Doena on April 06, 2010, 01:21:25 AM
Over the past six days I watched Doctor Who Series 2, 3, 4, the 2009 Specials, Series 5 Episode 1 and Doctor Who Confidential for Series 1 and 2.
Ironically the first thing I noticed about the new series was that the TARDIS doors opened outwards which I can't remember the ever doing before. The plot seemed pretty straight-forward, I can't say there were any surprises for me (e.g. that the Doctor isn't the most punctual man has been proven time and time again [e.g. when he brought Rose home for the first time in Aliens of London; The Girl in the Fireplace]; that he challenges his enemies to look him up [e.g. Forest of the Dead]).
Even the threat that silence is descending isn't a surprise - they need a plot for the season finale.
But I like both characters so far - i.e. I'm willing to give them a chance -, I'm just wondering if we will see any of the old characters ever again (With the exception of Professor River Song who was in the series preview).

McGann Movie was '96 and even though it bares little resemblance to the original series, it is the only "episode" of the 8th doctor that is considered Cannon even though there are several audio adventures and a bunch of books.
Re: Eccleston as I heard it he was only contracted to do the one year and so had contracted to do other things afterward. Nobody was sure if the relaunch would even be popular enough to continue so the producers didn't press him to return when they realized the show would continue.

I finally tracked down when Dr. Who airs on BBC America and I've seen some episodes. I really like them, though, they don't seem to be airing in any particular order. I've seen episodes with Eicholson as the Doctor..and with the newest guy and Amy. I haven't seen any with Tennant yet. It would be nice if there was some sort of order to how they are airing, but I'll manage. Somehow I have a feeling that I'll get the DVD sets... :laugh:
Oh, I had seen some of the older Dr. Who shows years ago. I can't remember who was the Doctor in most of the ones I saw. All I can remember is him having dark hair and a really long striped scarf. I did see the first episode with the doctor who followed him...and I remember being really confused with the changing appearance. I've learned more since reading reviews about the show.
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: DJ Doena on November 24, 2010, 01:11:21 PM
The Doctor with the really long scarf is the fourth Doctor (Tom Baker)
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: Dragonfire on November 24, 2010, 10:35:31 PM
That's him.
Well I think the episodes are airing more in order now. I saw the end of the first season and I have the Christmas special one with Tennent on my DVR. I think they did some sort of marathon last week when I found the show...several episodes of the newest season.
Oh..I also saw that Torchwood is going to be on there too. So I have my DVR set.
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: Dragonfire on December 20, 2010, 09:16:15 PM
I'm still watching Doctor Who...I've just seen the last episode of season 2 a few days ago.
(click to show/hide)
Ok...I knew something was going to happen and Rose wouldn't be with the Doctor anymore, but the way it was done. It was done well..very emotional..but also difficult to see happen. Rose has irritated me a bit in a few episodes, but I forgot all about that and got sad with how things worked out for her. And how the image of the Doctor cut off before he could say what he was going on. Heartbreaking. Least for me.
I have seen the Runaway Bride episode and the first episode with Martha. I like her so far. I have still be catching the newest episodes when they are on too.
Quick question...I know I'll get the DVD sets..just a matter of when..have to watch the price. Why are BBC shows so freaking expensive?? Anyway, I've seen one set that says it is the specials with David Tennant. Are those episodes that are part of season 4? So will I need to get that set too to have them all?

Oh yeah! I found that ending to be really harsh. Both on the Doctor and on Rose.
And I know what you mean about getting annoyed with Rose. At some time, she did get on my nerves too.
That Specials box set with David Tennant technically happen between Series 4 and 5. And do yourself a favor, before you watch End of Times Part I and II, make sure you've seen the whole of David Tennant's episodes. It'll be that much more powerful if you do.
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: Najemikon on December 20, 2010, 09:30:29 PM
I can't remember the order, but you will need the specials too, if only because they're referenced later. If it's any consolation, the box sets hold their price in the UK too.
I think it's because the BBC is a publicly funded service. Therefore retail merchandise and selling original broadcasts internationally are a major source of income. Second, I think they are publicly accountable and can't be seen to be too commercial.
But in any case, I'm really pleased to see you getting into it.
Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: DJ Doena on December 20, 2010, 09:35:58 PM
The order is
Season 1 The Christmas Invasion Season 2 The Runaway Bride Season 3 Time Crash (optional, was a five minute Children in Need special with the Fifth and Tenth Doctor) Voyage of the Damned Season 4 The Next Doctor Planet of the Dead The Waters of Mars The End of Time, Part One The End of Time, Part Two Season 5
Usually the christmas special is sold with the next season, the five specials between season 4 and 5 are sold as "The Complete Specials".

That ending was ...brutal with how everything worked out. If Rose hadn't jumped back over to the side with the Doctor, it still would have been sad, but not as bad as what happened. Though that does help to show that he does really feel for people..and gives a glimpse of how difficult it has probably been on him over the years, always having to say goodbye to people. But it still sucks.
Do you think there was something more going on between the Doctor and Rose? I read that some producer said he was going to tell her he loved her. Then there was his reaction when Rose mentioned the baby... Now I'm wondering. lol
I figured I would watch all the Tennant episodes before the specials. I just wanted to check if they were part of the series 4 set or not.
That makes sense about the price...I just wish the price would drop more when they are on sale. Right now at Amazon, on sale, they first 4 sets are around $45.
I'm beyond getting into it. I'm fully hooked and addicted I think. :laugh: I even have a few Doctor Who books on my wish list at Amazon now. And I got a friend hooked on the show too. I told him a bit about it and he decided to check it out and now he's as hooked as I am. :laugh: Oh..I also watched some episodes of Graham Norton show when Tennant was a guest. And that led me to watching some more episodes of that show too.
I might as well mention...I got the new BBC Sherlock series too. Though I suppose that is clear from my watched banner. :) But I love that too. BBC does really good stuff.

So far I've seen part of the first season, The Christmas Invasion, season 2, Runaway Bride, the first episode of season 3 and a handful of episodes from season 5.
I started with season 1 with Dancing Doctor...or Doctor Dancing..can't remember the exact title now.
I have seen the first episode of season 5...the second one...then a few later in the season. When I started watching, BBC America was doing a marathon of season 5 that day...I was a bit confused, but I still enjoyed them. I have another episode of season 5 on my DVR...but I think it is one of the last episodes, so I was going to wait so I could watch the last few all together.
I'm already planning to watch the new Christmas special.

I've now seen the last 2 episodes of season 5..with Amy and the 11th Doctor. Really good. I've also watched the new Christmas special. I loved it..one of the best Christmas episodes of any show I've seen in a long time. It is still on my DVR...I'll watch it a few more times before I delete it I think.
I've seen more of season 3 with Martha...I still have like 2 more episodes to watch to get all caught up. I haven't been able to find Torchwood on again yet. I keep checking though.

Just finished watching the Christmas special. Loved it! I love the concept and how it intertwined A Christmas Carol with the Doctor Who universe.
Ok I wish it had featured Amy Pond a bit more, but Abigail was a gorgeous replacement.
I had never heard Katherine Jenkins.. Wow! She's got a really nice voice! Love that mezzo-soprano voice. They should own the opera world, not those ear screeching sopranos!

Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: Dragonfire on December 28, 2010, 07:31:49 AM
I first saw Katherine Jenkins on an episode of the Graham Norton Show. I think it aired a week before Christmas on BBC America. She was talking about being in the Christmas Doctor Who episode. She sang just a little on that show, but that didn't prepare me for how gorgeous her voice is.
I liked how the episode used the Christmas Carol idea but changed it around a bit to fit in with Doctor Who. It is a bit different, but it has the same basic elements of they story. This may be one of my favorite versions of A Christmas Carol now.
I am currently trying to watch stuff on my DVR to make room...there is a Doctor Who marathon starting on BBC America on Friday morning I think it is. It is going to be something like 36 hours of Doctor Who...from in the third season clear through the new Christmas episode - it includes the specials that aired between seasons 4 and 5 too. I've already got my DVR set to record most of the episodes..there are a few I've already seen recently..and a few that are played twice. So I'll be having a marathon. :)

Title: Re: Doctor Who
Post by: northbloke on September 25, 2011, 01:24:29 PM
At first I thought we were meant to know them, that maybe we'd met them as adults previously in the series, but thinking about it I think it's more likely that they'd been interviewed later as adults about that meeting so we were hearing their adult voices. She may sound familiar because rather than pay for 3 new voice actors they may have gotten actors from random episodes to speak the lines when they were filming.
As an aside, do you guys think that these 2nd half episodes have all tended to start strongly but really cop-out for their endings?

I think many Doctor Who episode and arc endings are often a bit of a cop-out. Or they are so confusing that no one is able to follow the events anymore and just goes with it.
I found the last two episodes rather sad especially if you consider that the doctor must have been alone for the last 200 years of his timeline (he was both 909 and 1103 in The Impossible Astronaut) since the events of The God Complex.
And all that reminds me of the last episodes of the Tenth Doctor who tried to have fun before the inevitable regeneration. Back then he was also rather desperate (I'm referring to the 2009 movies).
Despite being a rather young actor I really have the feeling that The Doctor is really old (and a bit tired).

The daughter or a descendent. Or maybe the Dalek after she deactivated the force field engaged an "emergency temporal shift" and the companion we're about to see is a flesh avatar of said Dalek. Who's to know with a weird show like Who. ;)
