The Doctor Who thread


Recommended Posts

It's a testament to how blase I've gotten that I saw this and said the same thing. A few years ago I would have enthusiastically paid my money and gone and had a great time, even if it was "Fear Her" or something truly terrible, not just "meh". but yes, "Impossible Planet/Satan Pit" would have been perfect.

I wonder, has it ever been confirmed that Ecclestone followed directly on from McGann? Because it would be a cool twist if there was a unknown incarnation who was actually the 9th Doctor, bumping Tennant and Smith forward one each.

I love reading old threads.
