Oh, Didnt see that.

Indeed! 😛

I realized today that if I get a snazzy brown pinstripe suit, I can wear it much more often than anything blue, regardless of how hilariously cool it looks. So possible change of plans, but it might actually result in a more faithful costume....and a sexier Digi.

Just seen this, have no idea how true this is.

Doctor Who role for Timothy Dalton
Fri May 15 12:03PM by TV Editor

Former James Bond star Timothy Dalton is to appear in Doctor Who.

The actor, who played James Bond in The Living Daylights and Licence To Kill, will appear as a baddie in one of David Tennant's final episodes.

A Doctor Who insider told The Sun: "Timothy Dalton is a big coup for Doctor Who because he's pretty iconic. He's in the UK right now and is shooting scenes over the next few weeks.

"It's a good gig for him as it will be one of the most memorable episodes yet."

David Tennant is set to play the Time Lord in just three more special episodes before handing over his sonic screwdriver to new Doctor Matt Smith.

Former assistants Billie Piper, Freeman Agyeman and Catherine Tate are all expected to appear and John Simm will also be reprising his role as The Master.

The specials are expected to be screened on BBC1 over Christmas and New Year.

Yeah, it's being backed by multiple sources now, so looks pretty likely.

Rumour has it that

Spoiler:
he is playing a Time Lord. In fact the first rumour was that he was playing the new Master but now the vibe is he is playing another hidden survivor.

Oo I'm for Timothy Dalton! can't wait. He's excellent.

I see yet another companion who has already been in Doctor Who not so long ago... 21 year old companion for the new Doctor, I like the look of her but don't know what her acting is like. From Scotland, so wonder if she keeps her accent, or changes it like Tennant did.

Yeah, one of my friends linked this article on facebook earlier and I saw it.

I'm quite glad they have gone for both more or less unknowns for the new series. Though still in my heart I would love Donna Noble back. 😛

I hate not having BBC for new episodes. I'll be able to join this conversation in maybe 3 years.

🙁

Can you not watch it on the BBC Iplayer, or is that not for outside of Britain? you can always watch them online, will be up once shown here.

I'd love to see Donna back, somehow.

Doesn't work outside of the UK, I believe.

Donna is back for one of the specials I believe.

Just been reading this on Yahoo news, seems to be a interest choice and hopefully works out well.

She's gonna burst into flames if she remembers the Doc

I know! 🙁 but something will happen where she obviously doesn't...

really?! wicked. I'll have to look into that. Do you have a link?

Very much a UK only thing, I am afraid.

If you are in Britain, then just go to the BBC website, all the links on there.

Obviously, I mean Rose was stuck in that alternate dimension forever and yet they found a way to write her back in
