The Night of the Doctor - new mini Doctor Who episode.

[Janx]

Yeah, he's in the trailers for it. I think that's pretty much a giveaway!



Peter Capaldi. Christmas Special this year (on XMas Day).

Hadn't seen the trailers...

Eh? You commented on the trailer.

So how long was Hurt the Doctor? Because Matt Smith didn't age a day in 300 years; Time Lords clearly age incredibly slowly. But John Hurt goes from youngish to elderly. He must have been around for a long, long time.

Incidentally, "Will it Hurt?" is a terrible joke...

It does however set up any number of puns in the show...

Could be from the stress......

Yeah, perhaps the time war leaches his vitality.

I didn't watch the videos. I posted on the thread about the trailer asking questions to confirm that the 11-23-2013 event you were talking about (that the trailer was for) was the same thing I have tickets for on 11-25-2013. So I was only there to clarify my understanding about the special showing event that the trailers were advertising.

The danger I face is you BBC guys get everything before we do, so I have to be careful to not take Spoiler Damage for stuff you've already seen, but hasn't been available to us yet.

As in this case, everybody will get to see the Day of the Doctor before I do through no fault of anybody's. No fault as in it's not like I delayed seeing it, this event does not exist in my market until 11-25-2013.


Thanks again for sharing the information, as I like Dr. Who, but am obviously not as well informed.

I thought it was simulcasting on TV in 77 countries around the world on the 23rd. I assumed your country was one of those?

Hence why I was asking odd questions about it, as your statement, and the date on my tickets don't match (and there wasn't a choice of dates).

Here's a linky (not trying to spam, this is simply what was advertised in the theatre):

I think I smell a clue from this other article:
http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/10/24/ny-ncm-fathom-dr-who-idUSnBw246028a+100+BSW20131024

"Eleven U.S. Cities to Join First Global Simulcast on November 23
Expanding to over 300 Cinemas for Only One Night
with NCM Fathom Events on November 25"

Apparently the 4th largest city in the US may be getting it, but not in all/most theatres. I have no clue what theatres are getting it, as I hadn't seen anything except the specific ads on the wall in my local theatres for the 25th.

It's a dessert island.

I stopped working on my raft of Twizzler sticks to sail the chocolate syrup ocean, because I kept chewing holes in it.
