[shaolinpunk]

Available on BBC Red button (and presumably iPlayer) from 10.05pm tomorrow:

The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot:
A star studded special written and directed by Peter Davison. With the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who about to film, the 'Classic' Doctors are keen to be involved. But do they manage it?

The bit where the kids were pretending to be Daleks on the bus brought back memories. The playground at my school was transformed after the first Dalek episode by the sound of "EXTERMINATE!!!"

Sounds like it could be an amusing end to the day.

I did read in a national "newspaper" that apparently *** ****** ****** has a role of some kind in the main event tomorrow.

True or not, we shall see.

I suppose that's probably what this mysterious twitter feed is about: https://twitter.com/dayoftheFishDr (one of the doctor who writers is alleged to have recommend people follow it).

Yep, Davison has confirmed this along with McCoy and Colin Baker at today's event at Excel (which has been great). Should be good. Playing themselves not the Doctors though.

So, here we are at last.

The Day Of The Doctor.

Happy birthday Doctor. Here's to another 50 years.

Excellent show with a nice period feel. Only regret is that they couldn't have found a bit more time to feature Delia Darbyshire more. As someone as already mentioned some of it was surprisingly touching and it was a nice little twist with the first regeneration (I won't spoiler it)

sky channel 977 for 3d tonight

 

[Acker79]

Won't be able to watch it as it airs. Have been "surprised" with tickets to a show. Might watch when I get home, might have to wait until tomorrow. I really want to avoid spoilers.

Wanted to go to the convention in London today , but sold out very quickly. Never been to a convention , but if I should ever go to one , today would be the day to do it.
Never mind. The 50th is to big an event to simply watch at home , so it's the cinema for me tonight.

 

[Deadly Danson]

Hearing that the discovery of Marco Polo may well be announced at the after show party at the BFI tonight. IF (and it's a big IF) that's true - what a way to end the anniversary celebrations. And almost certainly tonnes more missing episodes have also been found which will be announced in the coming months and years.

Less than an hour to go - hoovered behind the settee especially.

Broadcast simultanously in 90 countries, yes the BBC broadcast in a lot of countries. But its not 90 countries all taking Doctor Who and broadcasting it, for a minute thought the world had gone mad.
