Just me or are they lucky with these anniversary dates?

It won't concern me.

I wonder if the omni rumour will still be going...........

(like)

What is the significance of it being on Friday? Surely Saturday would have been significant.

Quite!

That will be my 72nd birthday haha

Ill be dead. I could care less.

I'll be 83. Same age as my granny now.....

Do you reckon they'll get all the doctors for the 100th. So far we've only got eccleston, apparently.....

I shall be dead by then probably, hopefully my kids may enjoy it, if it aint been long cancelled

The BBC will be bought out by Fox by then.

That's a long time away! I haven't started work yet but I'll be retired by then!

Lucky? Am I missing something?
Why is a Friday lucky?

It will be called new who once again, but people will point out that it's technically the 15th revival since the original which makes it new,new,new,new,new,new,new,new,new,new,new,new,new,new,new who

Good luck with that (unless you are going to earn large amounts of money)

Maybe they are saving Underwater Menace for a special hundredth anniversary, 3d hologramitic fully immersive release?

It's still a weekend day, better that than Monday to Thursday.

I'll be 68. Wow.

I shall be 74, if I'm still alive.

Since the internet will probably be around for many years, our ancestors might be interested to know when trawling through the records of this ancient forum that 23rd November 2363 falls on a saturday, so if their robot masters still allow doctor who it should work out nicely for the 400th anniversary

I can't help feeling that science fiction will feel less special 350 years into the future....

Unless society changes too much, I would imagine their would always be a place for science fiction in some form, just like fantasy, because both are just people imagining scenario's above and beyond what is possible in the real world. Obviously sci-fi in hundreds of years wouldn't look anything like what ours does today, but I think they'd have some version of it.

The most amazing thing about doctor who is that it is absolutely the only show I could imagine still being a valid sci-fi concept in 350 years. The format is just so simple and flexible, and I doubt even then they would have invented time travel.

I can't help feeling that 350 years in the future there may well be no "science fiction", so that when Kal (one of the last surviving humans) sees something appear that he can only describe as "a tree" out of which an old man comes and makes fire between his fingers, no-one will recognise this as a 400-year-old trope of science fiction (except for the entirely automated entity ORB, which will immediately demand the travellers' death).

Or something.
