You may say that, I couldn't possibly comment! Tremendously looking forward to this episode though, Dr Who and BB are 2 of my fave shows!

I posted this in the 4th June thread, but it seemed to get lost

Using spoiler tags, because it's better to be safe than sorry. This isn't a spoiler, however, but how how I think things will pan out:

i like the cut of your jib on this one, and might not be as far wide of the mark as you might think!

hmm good speculation there!. I for one don't even want to guess what happens. But I do like what people are writing. I just know for a fact that I will miss CE tremendously (if spelling is off do not laugh)lol

Not a spoiler as such, but more of a question/comment about tomorrows' episode; I've put it in spoiler tags just in case.

Spoiler


Does anyone else think:

i think bad wolf will be a milestone in the season.. a lot of us will be going "oh yeah.. how come i didnt spot that?" after the parting of the ways, and we will all be looking forward to christmas even more than normal

as far as next years easter special thread.. hopefully DS will relent and dedicate a sci-fi forum, so we can all have a happy home at last and discuss to our hearts content!

no problem sammie, one of the things that makes me keep coming back to these threads is that the vast majority of people are tollerant to the views of others.. people dont always have to agree with each other, but we should always make an effort to understand another person's viewpoint. thats why i personally love series like dw because ultimately it does promote understanding and harmony, and the people on these boards understand that

sorry to take up space on this thread! but actually i think it is still on topic!

The very idea that these three shows are what remains of 21st Century British TV in the distant future is nightmarish enough for some people as a starting point!

As for dreading it because it's an RTD for starters, you'll have read my previous posts so I guess we'll have to continue to agree to differ

I agree with an earlier point, John, about these shows being chosen because they are intrinsically 'cruel' - For straightforward 'worst of tv' satire you wouldn't have to go much further than Bruce Forsythe's back catalogue (though the Regeneration Game would have been good ).
A robot with a whirling rug, repeating the same tired old catchphrase over and over again would be too much like the real thing for comfort.

And I think RTD has done wonders in this series. The fan-hated AOL/WWIII is a case in point - Having read many disturbing reports on what might have actually happened on '911', I honestly think this is about as close as TV can come to questioning the 'official story' - but maybe I'm reading far too much into a kid's show?

actually i think i might try and squeeze in the whole series before tomorrow night just so it is fresh, you never know i might pick on something which has been missed as well.. rtd knows damn well this series is being made for the dvd generation, so there must be stuff in there which might otherwise go unnoticed.. i take it as my humble duty to investigate further

sammie, use the same as when you quote, only with the word "spoiler" instead

ie [spoiler] and close it with a / inside the second bracket.. actually its hard to do that without actually doing a spoiler!

will pm u the format if u like

You can either highlight the comments you want spoilers round and press the spoiler button (The grey S) or type [ then spoiler then ] at the beginning of the comment then [ / spoiler ] at the end of the comment - like this:

Hope that makes sense!
