March 8, 20178 yr As I always am (ALWAYS!) I will be sorry to see Capaldi leave - I've been rewatching his run and it's much better than it seemed at the time. Never had a problem with a grumpy old Doctor: that's how he was envisioned right from the start, and I was there right from the start as a fan from day one, and in 1964, writing in my school books about it and my favourite pop acts obsessively till I think I got told to write about something else :lol: Just goes to show people don't change with time... :P to view my schoolbooks (me,me,me,me,me) click here: https://popchartfreak.wordpress.com/2013/11...ing-doctor-who/
March 13, 20178 yr http://digitalspyuk.cdnds.net/17/11/768x512/gallery-1489408901-final-13122031-13122021.jpg First episode is called The Pilot and another 60-second trailer is airing tonight during the FA Cup match! Neeeed the promotion to really start coming in now that we're a month away. It was all so half-arsed for Series 9 and for Class too which led to underperformances for both.
March 13, 20178 yr Did I spy an Ice Lord in that trailer? And the Mondassian Cybermen better do that creepy sing-song voice they used to do. Really weird
March 13, 20178 yr Can't wait for him to go. Worst modern doctor and with the worst , CHEESIEST of cheeay Doc Who stories - like Danny the Cyberman and rain. He haa trashed the series along with Moffat. Ba bye.
March 14, 20178 yr Here is said trailer!: s2xOQK_BLIg Looks like there is an interesting mix of monsters, both new and old, which is what is needed tbh! There's been a lack of perhaps more memorable monsters over the past couple of series but there looks to be a really creepy set this time round! That Dalek girl seems pretty interesting too! Visually impressive but not much else can really be taken from the trailer aside from that cringy emoji line. Really looking forward to seeing Missy again, particularly after seeing this video that was also uploaded yesterday. Michelle Gomez is fab in the role: https://www.facebook.com/DoctorWho/videos/v...e=2&theater
March 31, 20178 yr It has been announced that Bill will be the first openly gay companion! Saw this earlier! Great news to see even more diversity on the show!
March 31, 20178 yr Author Captain Jack? Yeah this was my thought, although I guess he wasn't a full-time companion. It's a good step anyway! I echo what burbe said, great to see more diversity (although Doctor Who's done a great job on that front since the revival anyway)
March 31, 20178 yr Captain Jack? I think he's more 'labelled' as pansexual as he was at it with anyone and anything. Bill is probably 'exclusively' gay.
March 31, 20178 yr For a minute I thought 'that'll stop her falling for the Doctor' but then I remembered that the next Doctor could very well be female.
April 5, 20178 yr Author Doctor Who Magazine has unveiled most of the episode titles for series 10 :D Episode 1: 'The Pilot' by Steven Moffat Episode 2: 'Smile' by Frank Cottrell-Boyce Episode 3: 'Thin Ice' by Sarah Dollard Episode 4: 'Knock Knock' by Mike Bartlett Episode 5: 'Oxygen' by Jamie Mathieson Episode 6: 'Extremis' by Steven Moffat Episode 7: 'The Pyramid at the End of the World' by Peter Harness Episode 8: 'The Lie of the Land' by Toby Whitehouse Episode 9: 'The Empress of Mars' by Mark Gatiss Episode 10: 'The Eaters of Light' by Rona Munro Episode 11: TBA by Steven Moffat Episode 12: TBA by Steven Moffat Really excited for this series now, just 10 days away :wub: Apparently there's a massive spoiler in the "coming soon" trailer after episode 1 too :o
April 6, 20178 yr Yeh I saw that, the reveal is a bit disappointing as I'd chosen that I wouldn't look at the spoiler Moffat mentioned would be in the trailer. Will be very interesting to see though, a completely unexpected move!!
April 12, 20178 yr Episode 1: 'The Pilot' by Steven Moffat Episode 2: 'Smile' by Frank Cottrell-Boyce Episode 3: 'Thin Ice' by Sarah Dollard Episode 4: 'Knock Knock' by Mike Bartlett Episode 5: 'Oxygen' by Jamie Mathieson Episode 6: 'Extremis' by Steven Moffat Episode 7: 'The Pyramid at the End of the World' by Peter Harness Episode 8: 'The Lie of the Land' by Toby Whitehouse Episode 9: 'The Empress of Mars' by Mark Gatiss Episode 10: 'The Eaters of Light' by Rona Munro Episode 11: TBA by Steven Moffat Episode 12: TBA by Steven Moffat Final two episodes comfirmed to be titled 'World Enough and Time' and the ominous 'The Doctor Falls' :o Promotion has been amazing, its literally everywhere so hopefully that translates well into ratings. A lot of it is focused on the fact that they'res a new companion and its been made very clear that she's different from Clara and Amy. I definitely think that's needed as they need a more familiar companion in the vein of Rose/Donna and Bill seems to be that, I've seen a lot of praise for her from critics! It has made me realise though that Clara was introduced all the way back in 2012 so hopefully ratings are going to benefit from a fresh companion, a sort of reboot and all this promotion!

Interesting titles :o I agree, the promotion really has been fantastic, so much better than it was for series 9. I think the new companion will at least give episode 1 some curiosity views, and hopefully if it's as much of a "reboot" as it's being made out to be, that'll persuade people to stick with it, while series 9 was basically billed as "more of the same" :lol: I've heard LOTS of good things about Bill and I totally agree in that it's good we'll be getting a more relatable companion, I'm very excited to see what she's like. This is the most excited I've been for a new Doctor Who series in quite a while :wub:
