I thought as it has been quite a while since I started a thread....I thought I would take the honour of reporting something that appeared on my google news....by the Sun....


Apparentely

although if you read the whole article....yes if you can manage it.......some things mentioned make you very much doubt the whole thing....apart from the fact that it is from the Sun....

Woops!!!!! My R seems to have been cut from the word Spoiler in the title Sorry

I'm not saying it's definitely not true, but that's been doing the rounds on the DWF spoiler thread for a while. It was rumoured he was seen in a full timelord costume.

Oh I like him -excellent if true.



Not a member of DWF so thats news to me ta for that -so you think it's just been lifted from that forum then?

Yes, yes I do. Mind you now if it's not true I expect we'll get a denial pretty quickly.

Yet another Sun "exclusive" ripped from a rumour on a internet message board. British journalism at it's finest!

If it's true I just hope we get filming pics everything is so hidden we really do know hardly anything about this two parter ..

David's meant to be entering his last week filming but that was him speaking on radio interviews a few weeks ago while promoting POTD...said his last day on Doctor Who would be next week -guess that could have changed ..

hope it's true -like the sound of another timelord character .

What made me chuckle was "One may possibly be on New Year's Eve". So the BBC are going to schedule their biggest ratings puller of the year on a day when everyone is not in watching television? What a clever idea! Also the line "The final episode will feature ALL the doctors companions etc." made me think that they'll print pretty much anything just to say "we told you so" later on!

Another thing that makes it less believable is the fact that they say he will be fiming in the next few weeks......well there is only one week left for DT at least....he finishes on the 22/24th of May....and I think most of them are pick up scenes by then......so unless its been all filmed.....wouldn't be suprised if it is all cobbles.....

also mentioned here:

http://uk.tv.yahoo.com/blog/article/185315/

also talks about john simms being the master again (although we saw him die) and the other usual suspects Billie Piper, Freeman Agyeman and Catherine Tat

A quick search brought up the rumour (posted in 2008) that Dalton was to play The Master in one of the 2009 Specials.


If there is any truth to this (and I doubt there is) it could tie in with the other rumour that both the Master and the Doctor regenerate. If all TD has to film is a brief scene as the newly regenerated Master then it could easily fit in with the week or so left of filming.

But those quotes from David were from weeks ago -things could have changed as they filmed in the weeks since ..

agree theres likely nothing to the story but fan forum gossip though .

I'm crossing my fingers that he is to appear.



Put it in spoilers just in case

He'd be an excellent Time Lord figure. He shows real authority in his performances.

He was a great Bond. The welsh one!!

I'd love it if he were the master.

Doesn't make a lot of sense though, unless the Moff's decided to use the Master sooner than later, and is set on using Timothy Dalton in the part. Seems like a bit too much and kind of unnecessary.

Actually, I can see John Simm being as keen to avoid typecasting as DT....

Off topic, but there are rumours on DWF that the Tractators are going to be in a Shadow Proclamation scene, so when that turns up in the Sun you'll know where it came from. (That would be amazing, but sadly I doubt it's true. Hey, RTD should put the Zarbi, the Nimon and the Bandrils in it too. )

In what possible way is the fact that he's your favourite Bond a spoiler?

Because the OP put in spoilers and thus Shatterhand was carrying on the trend by only mentioning in spoilers...dont get ratty with him!

If you had seen what happened to the character from Buffy who expressed similar sentiments you'd try and hide it as well

i do hope not, he cant do film acting, he is a great stage actor but has the presence of a gnat on screen (IMHO)

Could work I suppose, but things are looking very cramped now.

Not really. Many of the guest cast will be in it for about a minute, that's all. That's what it seems anyway. So in a 2hr finale there's PLENTY of room for all of this.

TV Times says Timothy Dalton is to appear as a baddie in one of DT's three remaining episodes. TV Times info is usually correct. however it cant be the next special as that has already been filmed and I think we would know by now if he was in it.
