its alright.
didn't realise they were meant to be lion men until afterwards.I would've said the Leo h=guy in the woman who lived should've been one of these but the villain was the weakest part.

I also think the 'nobliest Romana' line is weird, is the doctor saying Romana 2 is better than 1? seems mean spirited.

They don't buy into the conspiracy, they have "looked at the facts" and noted that most big corps are in fact run by jews. So they 'accept' the conspiracy as fact but dont think theres anything sinister about it

No, he was only that involved with series 1 of SJA. Phil Ford was the main SJA showrunner. That why he and RTD did Wizards vs Aliens together after.

Just finished pic related. I mentioned earlier I hate these fucking boxsets but this story was actually really great. The acting was a bit cringeworthy at times but the twist gave me a genuine "oh shit" moment. The only thing keeping me skeptical about the rest now is the fact River is going to be in it at some point. It seems like she was added not out of creative motivation but marketing. They got the license and wanted to shoehorn her in.

Filming starts 9/10 months before a new series airs. Ergo, s10 will start March/April 2017.

Capaldi was in Cardiff a few weeks ago, so the Xmas special has almost certainly already been filmed.

Yeah, I know. But I don't think a kid could grow up with that habit today. They'd be told off for giving the rude finger. That's what makes me think it's because he's olllld.

desu I don't think the guitar intro would have worked for me without the OTT tank so I'm glad it didn't get cut

the guitar itself was one of the less ridiculous things in the scene so it was easier to accept 12 was now playing one as a casual thing after the OTT intro

Teen Peter was an edgy wank, rebelling and hating his childhood.
Despite his affluent middle class family.
Typical Art School faux edginess.

>>70428102
Doctor Who will forever be lame, we just have to learn to live with it.

>>70428444
If he really want to be an edgy punk he should have burned down his parents' ice cream shop

>>70428421

Because he was such a Doctor Who fan, he was emulating the burning of the tapes by the BBC.

They were talking about Peter and Michelle having been in comedy previously, not the characters.

Nah, the first part of the panel is up on youtube. The moderator brought up that Michelle was in Green Wing and Capaldi also had done comedic roles before Doctor Who, then asked them whether they found comedy or drama more difficult to perform. Jenna jokingly said she didn't engage in comedy because she was a serious actress.

According to your take they would have been calling all of their Doctor Who characters "serious" roles since they were asked about previous comedy roles in contrast to their Doctor Who ones.

Hi /who/. I have some Series 10 info.

The companions full name is Beatrix Heart. But she doesn't like Beatrix so calls herself Bill.

She is a lesbian.

The Doctor has memory damage. They meet several times but he keeps forgetting her.

The cybermen are back.

The daleks are back.

Gareth Roberts is returning with an episode set in 1950's America.

Steven Moffat will "go out with a bang" by walking out of the BBC strapped with dynamite.

Capaldi is to regenerate at the end of the series into a genderqueer black woman.

You can only cast for talent – you’ve got to cast the best person, every single time – but you’ve got to gauge where you’re looking for the talent

That's because Moffat is a hack. You wouldn't get any of this bullshit in a Gareth Roberts historical story!

But that's not what's happening here. Historically, there were black African servants/slaves in the UK. You're moving the goalpost.

The point he was making was that in history you have to stay to how things were, but Doctor Who is fantasy, so why not mix it up?
>>
>>70432053
Like most sci-fi or fantasy stories, Doctor Who is grounded in reality. It's supposed to broadly represent accurate past and present and then it dumps aliens on them. There might be plenty of reasons why Blacks are in DW version of Europe, but the stories don't give any.

Basically, in the same vein, we can depict a human surviving decapitation for no other reason then "it's fantasy, wouldn't it be cool if people didn't need head?" It takes people out of the story.

Why do you want to be spoon-fed? There were blacks in The Woman Who Lived because there were, historically accurate, black servants. You're not questioning why there was that white guy Riddell in the African savanna in Dinosaurs on a Spaceship.

Why live?
>>
>>70433573
Because such explanation should probably be important. Shouldn't discrepancy alert people.

Now, sure, maybe there were Black servants or whatever, but Moffat's belief that he's doing good thing by whitewashing (kek) history is silly.

How about you write a story where Holocaust wasn't real, Steven? I mean, wouldn't it be great if it wasn't?
>>
>>70433720
If it's not relevant to the plot it doesn't need explaining. Basic writing lesson. Jesus Christ. Don't you think it would be fucking awkward if 12 stopped playing guitar, hopped off the tank and asked the black peasants why they're here in the Magician's Apprentice?
