No ones started a thread yet (or so I can see)
So here it is
Excuse it being a little early...
But I just couldn't contain myself

Not the ridiculously early time of 6:20
Yay!
I hope we actually get a commentary this week, the "big weekend" on the BBC stream meant there was none for last week!
Well atleast it's not days early like in previous weeks. Only 23 hours early
Yeah but I'm saying it every week now because any time anyone dared open an episode thread in the past the first two pages were usually debates between people who thought it was too early and people who...well, didn't!
Some traditions have to be maintained!
Yes there was and I listened to it on Sunday and very entertaining and informative it was.
i don't think it was started too early. it's better than having 50 odd different threads chatting about different theories about the episode before it airs.
give it time...;):D
I watched it last sunday on bbc3 with the commentary. And of course you can download the mp3 from the bbc7 website.
lol, too true...also, has everyone thought that if they didn't spend the first six pages wittering on endlessly about whether or not the episode thread is too early then the thread would actually be worth reading no matter when it started...just a thought
and now you have added your comment...;)
I try not to fly in the face of public demand
Besides, I never read the episode thread anymore because between the "too early" comments and the "can't wait/this looks crap" missives and then the fifteen pages of posts while the show actually airs...it's hardly worth it...I'm just bored waiting for the Cup Final to start
And you.
Oh, and me.
I thought it was next week they were putting stuff up, to make up for the lack of DW on TV.
Fingers crossed for a great trailer for the rest of the series as well!
Gareth roberts according to the font that is wiki
oooh that's an awful punn..:D
Not playing Jago (though given the year it's set he could have been) but playing Colonal Mustard
I'm sorry I couldn't keep it to myself
Someone's had a lot of fun, haven't they? Yes, scriptwriter Gareth Roberts, I'm looking at you. I bet you were tickled pink as you sat down to compose a comic Doctor Who episode based on a classic country house murder mystery, with all the requisite elements - a vicar, an aristocratic lady with a secret, a body in the library, a jewel thief, a gay male couple and a giant wasp (yes, I know, I know). Something tells me that Roberts is an Agatha Christie fan, too, because here's the lady herself, played by Fenella Woolgar, on the eve of her fabled ten-day disappearance in 1926, and the script is packed with in-joke references to her book titles (as in "That's set the cat among the pigeons", "This is a crooked house" and so on). Christie, the Doctor and Donna join forces when there's a murder at the lovely home of the poised Lady Eddison (Felicity Kendal). I suspect Doctor Who die-hards will find it all a bit blah, but it's a diverting, cheerful bit of silliness for the grown-ups.
