I'll be sad to see 11 go, but I have never been more excited to see a the new guy. I was nervous going into Tennant and Smith.

 

[bengraven]

Well, don't want any spoilers. When I see you guys again we'll have a new Doctor.

Fuckity-bye, raggedy man.

 

[Fuzzy]

I'll be at my uncle's house for Christmas dinner so I won't watch this until I get home. I'll watch the goodbye to 11 special then the Christmas special.

 

[Symphonia]

Just over an hour and a half until I breakdown.

 

[equippedwithtowel]

Any bets on what Capaldi's first words will be?

Fucking fantastic.

 

[liquidtmd]

Im not a fan of how the Moff said in a recent interview (paraphrasing) 'if you sat around wondering who blew up the tardis this will answer that' almost as a sleight to those who asked questions about it.

You based a good chuck of season 5 around it. Its not unreasonable.

 

[Kilrogg]

Do I need a BBC account to watch the episode on iPlayer?

 

[Bravocado]

Any bets on what Capaldi's first words will be?

"Blimey, everything's a bit looser now. I rather like it though. Ohhh, gray! Been a while, hasn't it?"

 

[DrForester]

This going to be a normal 45 minute episode?

Any bets on what Capaldi's first words will be?

I've watched this near a dozen times today already...

"Run, you clever boy..."

"Oh, fuck off!"

 

[Symphonia]

This going to be a normal 45 minute episode?

Nope, an hour-long episode according to my guide.

Nope.

"Change m'dear, and it seems not a moment too soon."

 

[RedShift]

Err... Is talking about watching iPlayer from abroad allowed? It is basically pirating it right?

 

[Keyser Soze]

Episode should open with Capaldi', and work backways to explain what caused him to be

#moffatt

 

[Fiktion]

It's almost time right? Enjoy it guys. Looking forward to catching up, hopefully shortly after the UK premier ends.

I can edit my posts if so, but why would that be the case? What is it about the UK despite being the country of origin that makes another country watching the iPlayer less good for the BBC?

 

[Keyser Soze]

Queen still talking about putting people in plaster casts

Funding through various taxes. And that the budgeting for iPlayer only covers providing it for the UK. It costs them money not just through lost advertising revenue on BBCA but in server costs as well.

I don't know maybe I'm wrong but I think leeching off iPlayer is worse than torrenting it really.

 

[Chezzymann]

Is it weird that I'm more excited for the doctor who special than any of my christmas presents?

 

[twilitesparklemotion]

Fair enough, I'll go through and edit my posts.

 

[SirBukkake]

Is there going to be a stream for folks in the US? I can't wait!

 

[NeO JD]

Anybody have an online stream?

 

[RedShift]

Here we go.

 

[CorrisD]

See you on the other side guys.

 

[DrForester]

Fun opening.

 

[Rich!]

I pay £130 a year for the privelige of iPlayer. Do you?

It's piracy, pure and simple.

 

[JonathanEx]

So everyone's naked. Merry Christmas indeed.

 

[RedShift]

The wig, what.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

lol they incorporated the wig.

 

[DrForester]

Heya, Crack!

 

[RedShift]

Crack is back baby.

The crack was behind the door!

 

[JonathanEx]

lol they incorporated the wig.

It keeps getting better.


Omg of course that's what was behind the door. Oh everything is coming together.

 

[RedShift]

Why are people so obsessed with his name, it's obviously Who.

 

[JonathanEx]

I wonder if that was the voice?

 

[RedShift]

This does actually seem to be tying together all the threads from Smith's run.

 

[DrForester]

Pft. Nine did it better.

 

[JonathanEx]

The music! Yes!

The logic of how things tie together is making good sense. The mainframe still have a key for the Tardis...

 

[DrForester]

Guessing Capaldi's going to show up at Clara's for dinner at the end.

 

[JonathanEx]

I prefer the bath theory

 

[RedShift]

Clara could remember his name from journey to the centre r the tardis

 

[DrForester]

If he remembers the stuff from Day of the Doctor, then he should know he gets past the regeneration limits when he met the Curator.

 

[DrForester]

Now that's an exit.

Or not.

Still a good exit. That Amy. Nice touch albeit totally unnecessary.

 

[JonathanEx]

No tears. Honestly.

Quickly distracted though.

 

[thesuperfunk]

Been a bit of a letdown so far imo.

 

[DrForester]

Wow that was quick. No big effect, just an instant change. I like it.

 

[Nicktendo86]

Kidneys!

 

[mitheor]

Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it.

 

[Harlock]

He lost the memory?

 

[Mr. Sam]

I honestly felt that was horrendous, but I liked the goodbye. The relinquishing of the bow tie really got me.

 

[wetflame]

The Doctor is dead, long live The Doctor. Sad to see Smith leave, but happy to see Capaldi taking the reins. Love that change, but we got so little of him to last us until the next episode!
