Dr. Who - Talk Up!

We know from the 8th Doctor novels that Gallifrey and indeed the entire Time Lord race were wiped from existense, save the Doctor and a few others. This we caused by a group called Faction Paradox, who ALL exist as paradoxical beings. The 6th Doctor changing his history is at least plausible by the rules that the stories follow regarding changing one's own future.
 

Indeed, although I never could stand that particular time war, I always felt too many mary sues were doing too many incredible things because rights could'nt permit The Daleks or some other telivision adversary to get it done. The Eighth Doctor books got tremendously bad around that period.

I suppose some people count the books as canon, I prefer the audio and telivsion canon, as the new series seems to acknowledge them alone in the Doctor Who annual as the reasons behind the present time war being brought up in the show
 
Wait- the books don't count? Then all the adventures with the 7th Doctor (Timewyrm, Cat's Cradle, etc.) didn't really happen?

The Virgin "New Adventures" count, because Davis references some things from them when describing the time war in the Doctor Who annual, but the BBC books became too convulted and difficult to follow with their stupid Faction crap, and they've never recovered from the plodding mess, so there ignored
 
"Tooth and Claw" aired in the UK this week, whilst the States got "The Long Game" yesterday on the Sci-Fi Channel

The Werewolf attacks were chilling and tremendously well directed to ensure that even without blood or mutilation, the impying of it looked more graphict. This was all about the creation and inspiration for Torchwood, the group that will be appear in the upcoming spin-off series that destroyed The Scyorax ship in "The Christmas Invasion", Victoria grateful The Doctor helped her, but then exiling him from Scotland because he treats life and death like a fun ride, insulting and endangering the frightened people around them.

Loved the symbolisms and various religious based means of holding back the Werewolf, and then at the conclusion implying Victoria's bloodline carries Werewolf genes which will mainfest in the next few generations completly...maybe Princess Anne
 
The new episodes rock. Hardcore. Really beautiful stuff is being done.

Me, my brother and sister sat around the computer will all the lights off, and finished watching Tooth and Claw just about an hour ago. My sister kept going "AH! That scared me!" :laugh:
 
Where are you downloading those Doctor episodes?
 
Tooth and Claw was very cool, I can see them using it for a holloween ep if they wanted too. But I will saw Tennant's Doctor is a bit out there, can't see many of the previous Doctor licking the door to test soemthing out
 
I first was afraid that the new doctor couldn't live up to the standard Christopher Eccleston set last year (haven't seen any of the other Doctor Who's).

I'm beginning to like this doctor more and more (although he is a bit strange at times), and with excellent episodes like Tooth and Claw, Doctor Who 2006 looks to be as awesome as 2005.
Maybe even better. :thumbs:


I really liked how they've done the killing. No unnecesary bloodfest, but still giving it an impact.
