I wonder will we be seeing the Valeyard soon

Highly unlikely in general- and also the Valeyard's plot is inncompatible with the Time War, as he would not be able to make contact with the Time Lords.

But then again, as the Valeyard won't exist until the 12th Doctor regenerates, a. things might have changed a lot by then but b. we don't have to care for a lonnnnng time.

Ive been watching the episode again and I think that Donna remembering was pretty pointless as she remembers then forgets pretty much straight away

I take it you were not happy by that? I must say that indeed was a load of rubbish, Rassilon was in the Five Doctor's story and was no way was he evil as I recall.

As for the the Xmas special I found it dull, yes we all knew the Master was going to do somthing big which he did. Once again they dragged out the ending of part two which was boring, the only interesting thing came out of it was the fact the Time Lords created the Master just to save there own rotten skins.

Avenge story but could have been better for DT's last story.

I agree with the dragged out scenes. Seriously, how many times can the Doctor change his target? And couldn't he have destroyed the machine at the beginning?

I just got all 4 seasons of Doctor Who @ 50 bucks a pop (normally they are 120 each)......Yes its legit! got them from Best Buy. Bloody awesome this is!

Some interesting tidbits from the recent, extended version of The Writer's Tale, RTD's book ion his experiences running Doctor Who.

- As had been long discussed and assumed, Martha and Mickey were indeed originally bound for Torchwood as regulars but dropped out for other commitments.

- Martha was also due to appear in Sarah Jane Adventures. However, afetr dropping out, ehr role was replaced with The Brigadier... which may expain why his apperance was a bit undramatic.(on a related note, it seems the Doc and the Brigadier were meant to meet in the SJA wedding episode, but Nicholas Courtney's recent stroke prevented this. Awww...)

- Originally, The End of Time was going to be about an alliance between the Time Lord High Council and the Dalek 'Parliament' (presumably to escape the Time War together). However, after consultation with Steven Moffat, RTD decided to drop the Daleks so as to keep them off-screen for Moffat to have a better run with them.

That would be...umm...weird.

Oh yeah, 'cos what we ended up with wasn't weird at all!

Hey, I never said it wasn't!

Has the new series trailer that you can see online been shown on the actual BBC channels yet? or too early. And does anyone know if we will get the chance to hear the new opening theme before the series starts?

Yes it has, and I assume we will hear parts of that in future trailers.

Will we ever see the war on screen?

Edgy as in MY PARENTS PLANET IS DEAD?

I hope this is right I'd love to see this universes cybermen http://www.sylvestermccoy.com/newdoctorwho/

It's a complete rumour right now. There are equal rumours that, Daleks aside, Moffat doesn't want to bring back too much older stuff. Still, we'll see! The rumours about

already contradict that, so anything is possible. (the countercounter rumours that it is a new type of

Considering the scale it's meant to be, I doubt the show will ever have a good enough budget to show the war in full and do it justice.

I think RTD prefers the war as someething of fantasy and legend, best left to the imagination.

That said, I bet some future production team will crack and do it via some medium, even if it is decades from now.

Has anyone listened to the big finish doctor who cds ive just bought the first 2 of the eighth doctor

You know how the Dr introduced Jack to that ship guy, who was in one of the christmas specials, in that bar near the end of the episode. Was that a future character who joins Torchwood? it that official.

No but it has been hinted http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/cult/s8/torchwood/news/a194870/russell-tovey-to-join-torchwood-team.html
