Nuala VelouriaDS Yeah, there's something about k=9. And I hear that he and Sara Jane Smith are going to be in the new season that's comming up. That should prove to be very cool indeed. smile There was a clip of K9 in the previews screened after The Christmas Invasion. He's looking a bit the worse for wear after all of these years. Hmmm, I never thought about it, but it does make sense...

For anyone who may not have heard elsewhere, the new Who will begin showing in the U.S. on the Sci-Fi channel begining on March 17. It'll occupy the Friday 9 pm timeslot. As a consequence, the DVD release (which was orginally rumored to be slated for February) has been pushed back to July.

Hairy Priest Any thoughts on the season 2 teaser that was shown at the end of The Christmas Invasion? Some people seem to be thrilled that Anthony Head, who apparently acted in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, will be guest starring in an episode. I never watched Buffy... is he any good? Anthony Head? Isn't he the guy who played Giles? If so, yes he is quite good.

My favourite Doctor was always William Hartnell, closely followed by Tom Baker. Now their giddy heights of Whodom have been joined by Christopher Eccleston, who was truly fantastic in "his" season heart . I also liked Romana, the female Time Lord (Mary Tamm incarnation), and my favourite companion was Leela - the only one I've liked as much is Rose (yes, it surprised me, too!). The Eccleston season was excellent - strong storylines by Russell T Davies, dark, scary tales with atmospheric sets to match, a host of new aliens, and a refurbished Tardis which looked (on the inside) much more like a high-tech vehicle with super-powers that has been shuttling back and forth through time. The new, improved, golden Daleks were menacing - and a lot more difficult to fight than they used to be - and there was even an episode with a dying Dalek that was very emotive crying . I liked the Doctor/Rose storyline very much, and it'll be interesting to see how that continues with the newly regenerated David Tennant Doctor. I was apprehensive about the unexpected regeneration eek , but the Christmas episode was promising - hopefully all will be well! Harbone (and anyone else who's interested) - there is an animation on the BBC website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/classic/webcasts/shada/index.shtmlI've seen a couple of references to The Prisoner in this thread - another of my favourite shows - maybe we should start a dedicated thread!!

Yipee, Who on SciFi! Hopefully that will make up for Stargate becoming so lame. Roll on March!

Hey! nifty!
Maybe I can get someone who has cable to tape it for me! I've almost got my VCR working again! I just need to solder the coaxial cable jack back on again after accidentally yanking it off!

Considering how short a season of Dr. Who is (thirteen 45-min episodes), if the show does extremely well on Sci-Fi, it's conceivable that they might consider picking up season 2 right away and start showing it immediately after broadcasting the end of season 1 (which I think will be in June or July). If that occured, we could be caught up in time for season 3 in 2007.
Not that I believe that it would actually turn out that way, but one can always dream... neutral
In the meantime, thank god for the internet!

Well, I've always wanted to travel in time, but with my luck I'd end up at some point in history that I DON'T want to change (and accidentally change it, like preventing Mother Jones from meeting up with the Knights of Labor after the great Chicago fire or accidentally pointing the seven or eight foot angel entity toward the wrong young fella sleeping outside the gates of a certain city in the Middle East.)
Or, even worse, I'd end up at some point in history that I desperately want to change but don't have the power to alter (like keeping Regan from firing the air traffic controllers or trying to convince Nicola Telsa that it's okay to touch J. P. Morgan's daughter despite her icky, icky pearls. Whew! That'd be tough!)
And what about the cloister bell? Huh? Huh? I bet that damn thing would ring within MINUTES of me stepping inside.
So, no. I don't listen for the wheeze of the time rotor, but I do sometimes scout out flea markets looking for an omni.

Where I live, we have those blue police boxes on the streets, but I've never seen the Doctor coming out of one yet - only rather brassed-off looking police officers. Maybe they were hoping it was the Tardis as well... xp It would be great to hear that creaky, whooshy sound, though... cool

It would be a great sound to hear. I don't think I'd set the cloister bell off, but I'm fairly sure that I'd get laughed or at least left behind when the tardis went on its way again...
Still, I think my heart listens for the sound even if I'd get left at home... xd
