Survivor 2011: New Who Episodes ~ Round Thirty
Thanks to everyone who voted in Round Twenty Nine
![]() If you haven't played a Survivor game before and would like to join in it's all very easy. All you need to do is cast your eye down the episodes listed below and decide which three of them you like the least. Once you've sorted that out simply post your three choices on this thread or send them to me via Private Message, then sit back and wait for the results to be announced. It's as simple as that! You can also send your choices to the succeeding rounds by typing ”auto”. Just remember that if one or more of your episodes is evicted then you’ll need to replace them to make them up to the required amount of three episodes. Two episodes will be evicted at the end of each round. In the event of a tie, cumulative votes throughout the game will be taken into account. It will probably come as no surprise to you to discover that the sole survivor of last round’s 3 way tie Utopia is out first this time around with votes from 36% of you. In second place we have a four way tie with The Parting of The Ways, Silence In The Library, The Stolen Earth and Amy’s Choice all polling votes from the same amount of people. As always, the cumulative votes decide which episode gets evicted so claiming 17th place on the chart for 2011 is Amy’s Choice. To recap: {33} 19) Forest Of The Dead {NE} 20) The Lodger {29} 21) The Satan Pit {17=} 22) Bad Wolf {14} 23) Journey’s End {23=} 24) The Sound Of Drums {15} 25) The Christmas Invasion {16} 26) Doomsday {13} 27) Dalek {25=} 28) Army Of Ghosts {11} 29) The Waters Of Mars {17=} 30) Father’s Day {31} 31) The Impossible Planet {21} 32) The End Of Time {II} {19} 33) School Reunion {25=} 34) Planet Of The Ood {NE} 35) A Christmas Carol {42} 36) Gridlock {20} 37) The Unicorn And The Wasp {22} 38) Partners In Crime {10} 39) The Girl In The Fireplace {23=} 40) The Fires Of Pompeii {37=} 41) Rose {NE} 42) Vampires Of Venice {NE} 43) Cold Blood {35} 44) Smith And Jones {28} 45) The Runaway Bride {NE} 46) The Beast Below {34} 47) The Sontaran Stratagem {32} 48) The Poison Sky {37=} 49) The Unquiet Dead {NE} 50) The Hungry Earth {36} 51) Tooth And Claw {30} 52) The Shakespeare Code {45=} 53) New Earth {43} 54) The End Of The World {47} 55) Rise Of The Cybermen {39=} 56) The End Of Time (I) {41} 57) Boom Town {49} 58) Voyage Of The Damned {39=} 59) Last Of The Timelords {48} 60) Age Of Steel {44} 61) 42 {50} 62) World War III {52} 63) Aliens Of London {55=} 64) Planet Of The Dead {NE} 65) Victory Of The Daleks {51} 66) The Doctor’s Daughter {45=} 67) The Next Doctor {54} 68) Evolution Of The Daleks {53} 69) Daleks In Manhattan {57} 70) The Lazarus Experiment {55=} 71) The Long Game {58} 72) Love And Monsters {59=} 73) The Idiot’s Lantern {59=} 74) Fear Her Game One (predict the Top Ten episodes) Utopia was ranked in 8th place last year so it’s perhaps no surprise that a lot of you predicted it to retain its Top Ten placing this time around. Amy’s Choice was a slightly less popular pick with two of you predicting it for a Top Ten placing. So, the leaderboard now looks like this:- 01=) Ten Predictions Left + carefactornil + crazzyaz7 + Fezzes and Ties + syramu 05=) Nine Predictions Left + allisonbm2 + clever chick + Deserana 12 + Gogfumble + Muttley76 + Tigger-Roo + Tumpy 12=) Eight Predictions Left + Abomination + Solid60 14=) Six Predictions Left + themasterq8 + Verence Prediction Game Two (Predict the Top Three episodes from Seasons 4 and 5 plus the Top Three from any of the first three Seasons) Five of you picked Season Three as your season of choice in this game and it’s well done to crazzyaz7 who was the only one of the five who correctly managed to predict the Top Three episodes in the season. The other 4 of you lose a point each as Utopia slides out of the Top Ten….. 01=) Nine Predictions Left + Abomination + carefactornil + clever chick + crazzyaz7 + Fezzes and Ties + Gogfumble + Muttley76 + syramu + Tumpy 10=) Eight Predictions Left + allisonbm2 + Solid60 12=) Seven Predictions Left + Deserana 12 + themasterq8 14=) Six Predictions Left + Tigger-Roo + Verence The Play Your Cards Right Bit Back in Round 13 Solid60 picked Utopia as the episode for you to think about. As mentioned, it’s fallen down the chart so this is how the leaderboard looks now. Fifteen Points: {from Sixteen entries} + clever chick + Gogfumble + Solid60 Fourteen Points {from Fifteen entries} + Black Guardian + Verence Fourteen Points {from Sixteen entries} + carefactornil Thirteen Points {from Sixteen entries} + Abomination + chuk Twelve Points {from Thirteen entries} + crazzyaz7 Twelve Points {from Fifteen entries} + chfez + syramu Twelve Points {from Sixteen entries} + Muttley76 Ten Points {from Fourteen entries} + Tigger-Roo Ten Points: {from Fifteen entries} + davrosdodebird Nine Points {from Ten entries} + Fezzes and Ties Nine Points {from Eleven entries} + Tumpy Seven Points: {from Seven entries} + williambarkley Seven Points: {from Nine entries} + Yuaxe Five Points: {from Five entries} + 027huds Five Points: {from Six entries} + TimeyWimey11 Four Points: {from Four entries} + Gutted Girl + Jules 1 + robbieg413 Four points: {from Six entries} + KHC22 Three Points: {from three entries} + Barracute + Bob_1971 +themasterq8 Two Points: {from Two entries} + supernovadragon Two points: {from Three entries} + finduilas4ab One point: {from One entry} + Analysethis + Deserana12 + Harry Blue5 + leavenfish + lolly-licker Zero points: {from One entry} + Laertes The question for this round is:- Q: Are you looking forward to this Saturday’s “Pirate” episode? Do you find that you like historical stories more or less than the usual sci-fi orientated ones? How many historical episodes should an average series of 13 episodes contain? So, it's on with the game then. Time to pick your three least favourite episodes from:- Season One 01) The Empty Child 02) The Doctor Dances 03) The Parting Of The Ways Season Three 04) Human Nature 05) The Family Of Blood 06) Blink Season Four 07) Silence In The Library 08) Midnight 09) Turn Left 10) The Stolen Earth Season Five 11) The Eleventh Hour 12) The Time Of Angels 13) Flesh And Stone 14) Vincent And The Doctor 15) The Pandorica Opens 16) The Big Bang +++ The deadline for your votes is 8pm on Sunday 08 May +++ |

Boo to Utopia going out...
![]() I also really wanted Silence in the Library to be 17th because it would have fitted in perfectly with the music i have selected from a video editing point of view! ![]() Old Votes: Silence in the Library Blink New Vote: The Time of Angels - love this episode, especially the pre-credit sequence, picking now purely because i feel they should not have used the cliffhanger in series 5 trailer, as it dulls it's impact. I am looking forward to a change of pace this weekend, though i doubt this episode will be in the same league as the first two were. I am sure it will be fun though. I think one or two historical stories a year is a fair balance. |

The Stolen Earth
Turn Left Parting of the Ways be good to have a bit of a breather after the last two episodes so having a historical romp will be most welcome not objections to more historical based stories or their limit as it always comes down to the quality of the story but imo you have to make sure the balance is right. |

I haven't played this for ages...
Human Nature Family Of Blood Blink I am looking forward to the pirate episode, not so much on the basis of the opening two parter though. I don't think it matters how many history-based episodes there are in a series really, as long as there is still some kind of balance between types of story. |

03) The Parting Of The Ways
07) Silence In The Library 10) The Stolen Earth I wouldn't mind seeing some "pure" historicals ie ones with no science fiction involved apart from Doctor and the Tardis |

I didn't like Utopia much, so I'm glad it's gone
Far sadder for me to see Parting of the Ways barely scrape through; that's a great episode. Anyway, my choices now are;The Eleventh Hour The Pandorica Opens The Big Bang As to historical episodes, some of my favourite stories have had a historical setting, but I've also seen some mediocre ones. I think the real issue is the quality of the story, not when it's set. |

Stolen Earth
Turn Left The Big Bang I tend not to enjoy historical episodes as much, but that tends to revolve around the use of specific historical figures. Shakespeare Code, The Unquiet Dead are some of my least favourites. Possibly because they tend to contain more predictable humour relating to that character/setting. The Unicorn & the Wasp and Vincent are notable exceptions.

Right my episodes are
The Empty Child The Doctor Dances and Flesh and Stone With regards to this week, yes I am looking forward to it a fair bit but I'm even more eager to see the episode the week after, truth be told. Regarding 'historical episodes', I think 2 or 3 a season - or 4 if one of them is a two-parter. Thinking about I'm a little disappointed that most of the episodes featuring a historical figure only happen to be 'one-parters' (eg. Dickens, Shakespeare, Churchill, Van Gogh etc.). A good two-parter for some of them now and again might be pretty good. |
