Was the Purple Man in Jessica Jones the highest a Dr Who guy has achieved?
"Actually, it was a suggestion from BBC Worldwide, who have been full of excellent suggestions, as the people there in charge of Torchwood are massive champions of the show. Believe me, no-one was being awkward about licensing an existing arrangement (it wasn't going to be a 5-minute job, but it was certainly possible), but we just hadn't thought to suggest a new arrangement until they came to us and said (and here I paraphrase) "But wouldn't it be more FUN if..."
And so we did.
Blair was delighted to do it, Murray was happy for him to go ahead, and the results are thrilling. It's just really ridiculously exciting to have added something new to Torchwood."
Looks like Marigold is pretty amenable to it. We might well get 10 and 11s themes in the audios after all. I wonder if we'll get any 50th music in the war doctor audios

>>63567717
Ha ha, I totally agree!
>>63567701
>Remember when Moffat was still based?
Yes, but what's your image and quote got to do with that?
Why do you guys make threads if the show isn't on anymore? You don't see the GOT fags or the Walking Dead fags making generals off-season.
>>63567683
Cloister for a present can you just show me your tits on skype and listen to me wank?
>>63567748
Because there's still another episode in less than two weeks
According to Day of the Doctor, both the 9th and 12th regenerated from the War Doctor in separate timelines. Why then can Capaldi's doctor remember Amy and Rory in the diner in Hell Bent? Matt Smith never regenerated into Capaldi, who should have no memory of 9 through 11.
>>63567748
We're better than them.
>>63567748
Because those shows are just for plebs.
Doctor Who is for autists.
>>63567701
Moffat was corrupted by the power of the fangirls after seeing how well Day of the Doctor worked with all the fan service (especially Tennant). He was corrupted at his core and became Fangirl Prime.
That's why series 8 and 9 are so bad. It's time to take him down.
>>63567729
Yup, I think some people get wrapped up in their geek tv bubble and misread stuff like Jessica Jones as being a bigger deal than it is (that's not a comment on quality, just prestige and salary as you said).
Tennant's theatre work has gotten him more prestige than any TV work anyway.
Capaldi is also a fucking Oscar winner.
>>63567748
Doctor Who isn't just a TV show, there's lots of other media released often (we have a big John Hurt audio series releasing on Monday for example) like audio stories, comics, books, etc. That, plus the fact the show has over 50 years of history, means there is much more to always talk about. It's not like GOT where there's just the books and the show, and there's a proper "offseason", because Doctor Who has something release at least every two or three weeks.
>>63567786
>According to Day of the Doctor, both the 9th and 12th regenerated from the War Doctor in separate timelines
>12th regenerated from the War Doctor
Pretty sure you just pulled that out of your ass.
>>63567786

>>63567840
>No Sherlock threads
>>63567812
Nah he's right it was a common theory albeit only retards could think of that: Hurts regeneration didn't show him turn into Eccleston so people went autistic and thought Moffat had a plan (hah, they should know he makes it up as he goes along) in which Hurt regenerated into Capaldi and Capaldi somehow inserted itself between War and 9.
>>63567855
Not our problem
>>63567864
But you can see Eccelston's eyes during the regeneration
>>63567786
> both the 9th and 12th regenerated from the War Doctor in separate timelines.
Just because its in your head doesn't make it canon
>>63567846
Yeah the daleks are great, they're very cute. It's my gf's favourite pop doll now. The other Doctor Who ones aren't as great, though they're not too bad. A Davros or Cyberman one would be neat. Or a Time Lord one with the headress.
>>63567886
I know, but that theory came from GB/Tumblr.
>>63567864
No. Watch it again. He turns into Ecclestone.
>>63567748
>he doesn't know moot and an hiro are closet /who/res

It actually makes sense. I just had to think about it for a moment.
>>63567717
Wonderful, wonderful observation -- I'm flabbergasted, to tell the truth.
>>63567804
Well, you may be right about the first bit but I don't agree with the latter part at all.
>>63567846
That's what I thought.
>>63567886
Isn't that a bit speculative?
>>63567916
I fucking know. It's just Tumblr's theory, I don't believe that, however talk with OP. And it's fucking Eccleston.
>>63567801
What are you talking about? Season 6 and 7 are worse than 8 and 9. Moffat's been shit for years and it's nothing to do with fangirls. I'm pretty sure most fangirls hate him.
>>63567950
>Isn't that a bit speculative?
It's literally objective. It's objective fact they shopped eccleston's face onto Hurt during that regeneration
River has a secret drinks cabinet in the TARDIS.
Also, the Doctor offers River a bumped up diary with hundreds of new pages, but it's still the same one.
>>63567950
>speculative
We were literally told it was Eccelston.
It's the opposite of speculation.
Why didn't she sign on for an entire season or two as a companion?
Why I ask you, why???

fibuli on GB has seen it now

>>63567941
oh i hadnt even seen that cyberman one, it is indeed cute
what are people's general expectations regarding the war doctor audio? I have cautious hype. Hurt is based, and BF surely will have put a lot of effort into their first 'huge' NewWho release. Briggs is a mixed bag. Setting the story so close to the 50th (presumably when the War Doctor is winding down and not so violent) is playing it a bit safe.

I think everyone is on the same page you are really. Cautious optimism. I think hurt is talented enough to sell anything so I don't think it will be awful by any means. Engines of war wasn't even that "good" kind of predictable, etc but putting hurt in the mind's eye makes it great. I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes the go to recommendation for "how do i into bf?" questions. And hurt is a based /who/ligan

I really hope Capaldi covers Pertwee's I Am The Doctor someday, and it's somewhat plausible, but to hear him do Doctor in Distress on the guitar would be hilarious

>>63568279
Moffat's season 9 episodes were pretty shit (besides Heaven's Sent) but it's still one of the better seasons. Season 9 is better than season 8, season 7, and season 6
>>63568279
How in the everliving fuck do you think 9 was weaker than 6 or 7? The hybrid attempt of an arc was shit but the actual episodes were all good at least, there was only one shit episode which is actually much better than just about every other series
>>63568301
Asylum, Mercy, Snowmen, Bells, Akhaten, Hide, Crimson and Name. Also if you add Day and Time but for me it stays the same.

>>63568147
>>63568250
>>63568281
Why is Series 4 so high? it only had like 5 good episodes
>>63568328
Magician and Witch both had plenty of good character interactions, particularly between the doctor and davros
People are too caught up complaining about the plot being basic or some shit and they're missing the actual point
>>63568194
Briggs is probably over the moon to get to do his own 'McGann" (Doctor with little TV adventures that he can make up a huge story arc for) so I imagine he'll be giving it his all. Who knows if that's enough though.
>>63568360
A few good scenes doesn't make the episode good.
>>63568351
The general argument is that 10 and Donna's banter and friendship is do godlike that they save shit episodes
>>63568331
Everything was shit. It's series 2 with fun and life sucked out of it. Some episodes are actually better than Series 2 though, so it's higher but still Moffat's weakest. Clara's unbearable, Ashildr is even worse than Danny Pink, the stories are way too long, the Hybrid prophecy doesn't even have a definitive answer, Time Lords are fucking trumped on, Rassilon is now a frightened shivering mouse, more Tumblr pandering than ever, ... it's fucking shit.

There's certainly more than 2 serieses better than it

That would be great. I really enjoy the scenes with the doctor in the tardis with his guitar. Hell i'd die happy if the doctor formed a jam band super group of all time and space, it's a bit wyld stallyns but idk.
>>63568367
I'm trying not to hype. I certainly can't wait topirateit.
>>63568418
Comfort in it's consistency. It's probably a bit of an anchor.
I wouldn't go as far as saying Series 9 is pigshit but it's very, very weak.

let's chat about something else anon
what new series audio are you most looking forward to

How the fuck do you think s9 had no fun or life? Does the lack of saturated orange lighting trick your brain into thinking it's not warm and fun?
>>63568335
>CITES THE FUCKING MESS THAT'S ASYLUM
>THE BORING HELL THAT'S MERCY
>THE FUCKING SNOWMEN
>DOESN'T MENTION FUN AS FUCK DINOSAURS
Man, at least Akhaten's there so I know your taste isn't full shit, but goddamn
>>63568454
Forget the divorce subplot and it's a pretty good story.
Mercy was great, I don't know what you wanted.
Akhaten is great, people hate it because there's singing and a sun with a face, which is ridiculous but not more than huge green farting babies from space.
Hide's plot wasn't dumb.
Name was too rushed yeah but it had Day coming right behind. Moffat had to save something for the 50th.
>>63568501
I loved Dinosaurs. I forgot to include it.
>>63568413
>Clara's unbearable
She wasn't though
>Ashildr is even worse than Danny Pink
Not true
>the stories are way too long
The pacing was perfectly fine (significantly better than the rushed messes of 6 and 7)
>the Hybrid prophecy doesn't even have a definitive answer
Yes it did, were you not paying attention? The hybrid was the doctor and clara, were they to stay together the doctor would have eventually destroyed gallifrey in an attempt to bring her back from the dead. It's a little contrived but there was definitely a definitive answer
>Time Lords are fucking trumped on
literally what do you even mean
>Rassilon is now a frightened shivering mouse
autistic amount of hyperboly
>more Tumblr pandering than ever
does a couple of throwaway lines really trigger you that much?
> it's fucking shit.
objectively incorrect
>>63568447
>>an actual discussion
>posting arbitrary rankings of a collection of television episodes that aired during certain years and arguing that other rankings are objectively shit
>>63566108
Has anyone else here seen Toast Of London series 2 episode 1? Louise Jameson is in it as an old prostitute. it's not nice.
>>63568478
The stories are fucking depressing, Clara has a death wish, Davros is dying, Ashildr dies as a young girl then remains alive for billions of years and sees atrocious shit, speech about war and its casualties, Clara fucking dies, the Doctor spends 4.5 billion years trapped in a castle, ...
Thanks but no thanks, life is already horrible, Doctor Who is supposed to be entertaining drama that makes us think of something brighter, lighter, funnier than the shit world we currently live in, not drama that recalls us the shit that's going on everywhere around the world and make us want to kill ourselves.
>>63568598
>Yes it did, were you not paying attention? The hybrid was the doctor and clara, were they to stay together the doctor would have eventually destroyed gallifrey in an attempt to bring her back from the dead. It's a little contrived but there was definitely a definitive answer
No. Ashildr says it's a theory and punctuated her theory with "maybe" everywhere. It was definitely NOT a definitice answer.
>>63568663
You're free to rewatch tennant any time, sorry your life is depressing and you can't handle stories about death
>>63568360
I liked the two parter than began the season, and the Zygon two parter, but everything else was shit.Yes, even Heaven Sent. It was superbly acted and watching Capaldi in it was so much fun, but the plot was super predictably and Hell bent made it retroactively worse
>>63568351
It had 7 for me. And of those. the Library two-parter, Midnight and Turn Left were top tier.
IMO, no (full-length) season has had less than 6 or more than 9 good episodes ("good" being at least a 7/10 in my book). It's how good the good episodes are, and how bad the bad ones are that decides the quality of the season.
I'm gonna rewatch S9 during the weekend and make my own ranking. For now, I believe it would be something like:
1>5>4>8>3>7b>4s>6>2>7a
>>63568695
On the tardis afterwards 12 mentions how 'he became the hybrid'
Given the suggestions that were thrown out there and the fact he says 'became' as opposed to 'am', deductive reasoning concludes that the hybrid was him and clara (especially since the purpose of that scene is ensuring that they are separated because he acknowledges the danger)

I didn't like Series 2 and 3. Series 4 and 5 are masterpieces and I want something similar again. You're free to put on the news and learn about the latest massacre in Africa or somewhere.

>>63568335
I had forgotten that was series 7, I loved that one. Smith's last series was superb, I think its only flaw was not having properly resolved the Silence arc from earlier series and sort of ham-handedly fitting it in with the anniversary arc.
>>63568768
I agree on principle, but come on, do you even know here you are?

Stephen Fry is gay though.

>Everything was shit
m8 pls
>Clara's unbearable
She wasn't though, this season has a Clara that wasn't going MUH DANNY left and right and was actually in it on the fun. Seriously, S9 is disappointing but Clara's acting isn't even a problem
>Ashildr is even worse than Danny Pink
True, worst of all she could be a really interesting character but she just falls on the default shit that Moff writes.
I mean fucking seriously, BITCH WAS AT THE LAST SECONDS OF THE UNIVERSE AND WAS ACTING LIKE EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL.
>the stories are way too long
Debatable, but even then you're wrong. If anything the stories were too fast, like Under the River and Before the Flood.
>the Hybrid prophecy doesn't even have a definitive answer
Yep, yep. Annoying as fuck methaporical shit and no satisfying payoff seems to be what Moffat is going for with his recent finales.
>Time Lords are fucking trumped on
Eh, their treatment was mixed, it had some good and some bad.
>Rassilon is now a frightened shivering mouse
Oh don't even let me start with that shit
>more Tumblr pandering than ever
which still isn't a lot, but sure, the ego line was fucking retarded. Other than that it was tolerable.
> it's fucking shit.
Not even close. This was a re-do of last year. Really great series, lots of fantastic episodes, some bad ones, Capaldi being based and a fucking amazing first part finale, only to be shat on by a complete piss second parter. This season was pretty good, you just can't see it because you're still raging over Hell Bent.
>>63568663
It sounds like you're sensitive to that stuff, fair enough, but personally I think those are interesting and compelling themes to explore and they did a good job of balancing it with hopefulness and some lightness so that my little brother was able to watch these stories without being traumatised. He was more excited by this series than he has been about Doctor Who for a while.
>Yeah it's like last year in Last Christmas. The Doctor will return in...
>Rush Hour
Fucking Moffat, the guy truly should leave.
>>63568800
>Yep, yep. Annoying as fuck methaporical shit and no satisfying payoff seems to be what Moffat is going for with his recent finales.
It's still not as bad as "this is the story of how I died, by the way died means my name was on the list of the dead and I'm still alive" or "one of you will die, by die I mean have your memory wiped which means that part of your personality will die"
At least the concept of a hybrid leads itself a little better to a metaphorical definition than saying someone dies
>>63567570
I did /who/ ranks who 15, and I'll be up for doing it again.
I'll wait until The Husbands of River Song airs though.
>>63568809
S10E01 is titled Rush Hour?
I heard rumours that it was called The Last Woman on Earth
>>63568800
I agree with everything you've said but I think as >>63568807 said, I'm more sensitive to the "bad" stuff that goes on in the show.
>>63568807
Glad to hear that, at least your bother will be part of the Capaldi Era.
>>63568870
>The Husbands of River Song
HO HO HO! MERRY C U C K M A S!
>>63568884
Isn't it a little early for S10 titles to be out there? Aren't they still casting the next companion?
>>63568809
Are Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker gonna appear?
>>63568870
Outstanding, thank you anon. You're amazing.
Sixie's story is called 'Judoon in Chains'.
>Judoon in Chains by Simon Barnard and Paul Morris sees the Sixth Doctor (Colin Baker) land in Victorian England, where he finds a Judoon Warrior imprisoned in a traveling freak-show! But Captain Kybo is a Judoon with a difference...
>The Rhino-headed stormtroopers will once again be voiced by the master of monsters and Big Finish Executive Producer Nicholas Briggs.
>'It was such a thrill to be a Judoon or two again.' says Nicholas. 'It's been a while, and this time there were great challenges in this rather lovely script by Simon and Paul'.
Join Colin and Nicholas are Trevor Cooper as Jonathan Jaggers Esq, Kiruna Stamell as Eliza Jenkins, Tony Millan as Justice Burrows and Nicholas Pegg as the Business Owner.
'I love this script.' says Director Barnaby Edwards. 'The Judoon fit perfectly into the Victorian era: freak shows, celebrated legal cases, late-Gothic literature, burgeoning theories on liberty and an individual's rights, and so on. I'm delighted with the cast, too. They all bring a reality and a necessary humanity to these towering nineteenth-century archetypes. And Nick Briggs gives a frankly astonishing performance as Kybo.'
>'How brilliant to be able to take a hugely popular monster like the Judoon, and have them in a Sixth Doctor story.' says Producer David Richardson. 'These Classic Doctors, New Monsters stories have been such an exciting prospect to work on, and the four stories contract beautifully.'
>Doctor Who: Classic Doctors, New Monsters Volume 1 will be released in July 2016, and will include three further stories featuring the Weeping Angels, Sycorax and Sontarans.
>>63568911
According to someone who has seen The Husbands of River Song, there's a card at the end like last year and S10E1 is titled Rush Hour.
>>63568911
She's cast, it's Rose Leslie
>>63568929
>give 5 the angels
>give 7 the sycorax
>>63568870
Actually looking forward to this. Damn, it's crazy how time flies. Capaldi already has 2 full series behind him. It feels like yesterday when we saw the first filming pics of him in costume giving Clala an awkward hug.
>>63568929
>hugely popular monster like the Judoon
I stopped watching at the finale of Series 7 and just started watching the specials and Series 8. Does Series 8 get better? I can't stand this Mr. Pink negro. I'm at episode 4 and it's cringe worthy.
>>63568960
I refuse to be memed on
>>63568949
does that person have any credibility?
>>63568911
Moffat's titles sometimes don't have much to do with what the stories are about.
He could probably come up with a title for S10E01 even if he didn't have most of the story worked out.
>>63568977
Would you rather have the Slitheen?
>>63569007
I bet the Slitheen and Ood are in the next boxset.
I can't think of any other popular NuWho monsters that could appear.
>>63569030
The Silence
Ood
>>63568983
Yes. He's watched every episode in Series 9 early.

The Doctor hadn't met any of those before their first New Series appearances though, had he?
Mind you, in the Silence's case that isn't really a problem.
>>63568980
I hesitate to reply cause you sound a bit /pol/ and I just disliked Danny because the actor was incredibly poor and he was written as a hamfisted plot device and foil rather than a proper character. But yeah, he's shit. You see less of him after episode 4 for the most part though. He's a major part in ep 6 again but he's a practically a cameo otherwise until the last 3 episodes when they remember he exists and have to wrap him up.

Hi. I am Margaret Blaine AKA Blon Fel-Fotch Passameer-Day Slitheen. I confess: I know who the hybrid is and where it is. I know what it represents to the universe. I know it is destined to stand in the ruins of Raxacoricofallapatorius. I confess: I am afraid.

Didn't the doctor tell rose what an ood was in impossible planet? Or am I making that up?
The new companion isn't Maisie Williams or Rose Leslie or Maddy Hill or Cara Delevingne (seriously?)
It's someone called Natalia Tena.
and please SCREENSHOT THIS!!!
>>63569091
>"Look at all the things I own, just like you, fellow nerds."
>>63569217

I heard Sean Bean
What do you think Capaldi thinks of this male to female regeneration and more generally of gay/tranny people?
>All these upcoming Saturdays without Doctor Who on
Why live?
How long until the new sonic screwdriver toys?
how long until the BBC do a partnership with raybans to sell official 'sonic sunglass' raybans?
>>63569210
Pretty sure you're making it up senpai. Maybe you're confusing it with Planet of the Ood.
>>63569259
I believe he's said something to the effect of 'sure why not' to a female regeneration in interviews, he certainly hasn't opposed it
And I'd imagine capaldi has a 'live and let live' attitude towards gay/tranny people, at least on a professional level. He's certainly smart enough to avoid the controversy of saying something negative about either
Which Big Finish should I buy? I don't own anything yet
Tempted by Torchwood stuff but am I making a mistake?
>>63569270
I need that fucking screwdriver.
>>63569287
Or maybe it was some crew member telling rose what they were while the doctor stayed silent, which allows room for interpretation regarding whether the doctor knew about them before or not
I really need to rewatch that story though, it was definitely one of the two GOAT ones in S2
10x01 is titled Rush Hour.
It opens with the Doctor playing Venus on his guitar.
The companion is called Lexie.
>>63569303
Favourite classic doctor?
>>63569307
it looks pretty silly - like they wanted to try making it look more like a screwdriver with the longer tip but it still has an elaborate long handle and since the tip is so think it just looks like a small dildo with a large handle
I like that it has a toggle switch instead of a button you need to hold down though
>>63569347
How on earth could you possibly know that?
I doubt Moffat's even began writing it yet.
>>63569270
They'd better not do that. The whole point of the sonic shades was supposed to be that they look like regular raybans and are inconspicuous. Moffat said the Doctor made them so he could smuggle them inside Davros lair and then kept wearing them because it shit's fun and it winded Clara up.
I'm surprised the new screwdriver isn't available for Xmas, but I guess that's because it hasn't been seen in action much yet.
>>63569303
The Torchwood stuff is good.
>>63569371
Falling for the b8
It seems the new sonic has a slightly different noise, there's a higher pitch wibbly countertone on top of the regular buzz

I don't like the two big metal bits that stick out. And it looks kinda cheaply constructed like a toy. I like the blue light though.
>>63569431
It feels like it'd be a bit awkward to hold, I'm not entirely sure how he's even supposed to - nothing really looks like the handle, there's just two separate metal components before the light pole but they both have those dangly bits

Gee, I wonder who could be behind these posts -_-
this is part of a prop in a kids show in the year 2016
1.1 The Innocent
As the Daleks mass their time fleet for a final assault on Gallifrey, something ancient is waiting for them at Omega One. And a sacrifice must be made.
Arch manipulator and Time Lord strategist, Cardinal Ollistra receives shock news of the Doctor’s death.
Meanwhile, on the planet Keska, a parochial war has returned to plague a peaceful civilisation after decades of tranquility. But how can such a war have any connection with the great Time War which, at any one moment in the whole of eternity, could threaten to tear the universe apart?
If only the Doctor were still alive.
1.2 The Thousand Worlds
With the high ranking Time Lord Seratrix behind enemy lines, the War Doctor finds himself assigned to a rescue mission. But any room for manoeuvre is severely restricted by an area of space known as the Null Zone.
Times have changed on Keska, and a countdown to destruction is beginning.
But who are the Taalyens and what is their part in the great and terrifying Dalek plan?
1.3 The Heart of the Battle
Trapped in a citadel swarming with Daleks, the Time Lord rescue force must find a way to overcome insurmountable odds. With the Daleks apparently planning to rule the Null Zone, perhaps their thirst for universal conquest and victory has been quenched…
The War Doctor doesn’t believe so — but how can he prove it without destroying any chance of peace?
As the countdown to the destruction of Keska proceeds, a deadly choice must be made… A choice that will define this Doctor and perhaps forever cast him in the role of ‘monster’.

If Rob likes Hurt, this might be the thing to swing him back into writing an audio next year. I'd love to see what he could do with a masterclass actor like Hurt.
>>63569628
how is he supposed to hold this comfortably? I foresee a lot of fumbling before he can whip it out and get his hands positioned on the side with the toggle.
>>63569628
Looks like an inadequate light saber
>>63569632
the color choice is very odd, they tried to do a thing where it looked like the tardis but you're completely right about it clashing with his outfit
9's suit was black, so the blue light worked
10's suit was brown which is complementary to blue
11's suit was brown which is part of a triad with green
velvety red, blue and gold just don't have the same color balance
>>63569653
get it it's a COMEDY episode and mr robot man's robot head base is so heavy not even the TARDIS is strong enough to place it without BENDING the console!
How SILLY and FUNNY! Moffat you've done it again!
>>63569546
>>63569612
i know this is just ironic shilling but it actually did hype me up a bit and i just preordered :')
>it took until the very end of his second series for 12 to finally get his own screwdriver

Capaldi has gone back on his attempt to make cosplaying 12 easy and not shilling toys with a new sonic screwdriver.
>>63569653This is the new companion. Moffat was going to bring back Handles but BBC execs wanted something that could emote
>>63569788
That shot was great though.
Is it a good idea to watch the entire RTD era (including the Spin-offs in canon order)?
>>63569783
try putting a cabinet together using a pair of sunglasses instead of a screwdriver, then you'll have your answer senpai
>>63569753
It's kind of busy though isnt it? The previous models kind of had a simple elegance to them. This one looks over machined. Lose the bike chain bits and the metal bracing, shorten the obelisk top part to more of a pyramid and it would look better.
>>63569788
I hope that person is currently sanction by the jobcentre
>>63569828
Matt Smith is not part of the RTD era.
>>63569785
The trailer is full of random noises and snippets of audio that don't really mean much without context. Not very hype.
Stop it, Briggs.
>>63569828
No... just watch Eccleston
>>63569848
I know that
>>63569797
I don't think it's his choice alone. The raybans were Moffat's idea and the new sonic being built at the end of Hell Bent was too.
>>63569828
I did it and it was fun, but if you dislike Torchwood or TSJA then it will be extremely tedious
>>63569855
The SFX stuff never works in audio trailers, but hearing Hurt's lines hypes me up
>>63569828
It depends. Do you like what you have seen so far of the spinoffs? Do you have the stamina for such a marathon?
>>63569828
never watched SJA so dunno if it is worth watching, but Torchwood S1 before Doctor Who Series 3 works okay, and then S2 Torchwood before Doctor Who S4 works alright too. It's not essential, but it's nice
>>63569788
Moffat sits in and has final say on the finished episode edit. It wasn't a sneak job.
