HOPING FOR "SATURDAY WET". Keep the viewers inside, out of the rain, and watching a certain show...
But it's going to be very warm this weekend...so expect 6.5 million viewers - unless the BBC pull their fingers out and continue to flood the neTwork with trailers for the finale...

well im guessing that most of the series has averaged around 7.5 million viewers; i cannot imagine that people would invest that much time only to miss the finale..
the way the bbc is promoting it too, there is no way that you could forget that it is on, i think the viewing figures will be superb, given that we are expecting glorious weather this weekend
plus i havent checked but itv are probably showing "When Celebrities Watching Pain Dry From Hell Goes Wrong" or some such against it, so it should all be fine....
Just a note but in this months issue of SFX. They show a photo of CE turning into DT. Don't know if this is an SFX doctored pic (excuse the pun) or whether it is a BBC photo.
After all these years waiting for a new series of Dr Who, isn't it great there's so much speculation and interest in the final episode of this series?
It's great that the BBC is doing all of these build-up trailers ahead of the final episode on Saturday.
My suspicions are:
I bet at least 80% of the above are totally wrong (if not all of it) but thought I'd throw my ideas into the pot with everyone else.
It's like I'm six years old again, wishing the week away to get to Saturday evening and Doctor Who!

Badwolf must be green.
If he was red then he would be a Tension Sheet (Red Dwarf 3:5)
"It's just the stuff they used to use in packing paper. All he did was to paint it red and cut it into small squares."

In firefox it shows - perhaps it's the bullet pointing as all other spoilers are invisible

sorry guys. I did check it before it went up and it looked fine. Maybe the mix of spoiler tag and bullet points doesn't work.
Anyway, I've removed the bullet points so hopefully those of you who could see the text cannot now see it now. They aren't really spoilers anyway - just speculation.
Could someone explain to me about the regeneration in Dr Who please? I can't really remember much about the previous series so haven't a clue what it all means and why it happens
Thanks
Thanks

basically timelords have 13 lives, and rather than dying at the end of their life, they regenerate into a different form.. although the memories and history of the doctor remains the same, the personality and physical characteristics can be markedly different.. the process of regeneration is relatively quick, but there is quite a long recovery time afterwards.. doctors have been sick or confused for some time after regeneration
some regens have been enforced (ie pat troughton into john pertwee as a result of a trial and an enforced exile on earth) but most come as the result of what would otherwise be a normal "death" ie Falling of a Radio Tower, Radiation Poisoning etc etc
All Time Lords have 13 lives. When they sustain a "fatal" injury, or reach the end of their natural span for that incarnation, they regenerate into a new body.
The Time Lord council can force a regeneration if they see fit (this is what happened when Troughton regenerated into Pertwee), and they can also grant a Time Lord more regenerations (another set) as offered to the Master in the 5 Doctors.

Just your typical run of the mill "normal" "deaths"

Some nice thoughts. Since Rose (mistakingly) gave the lone Dalek some of her DNA and therefore a little humanity by touching it, maybe:

well i suppose if you are engaged in the business of saving the universe on a regualr basis, these sorts of demises become merely an occupational hazzard!
As promised earlier in the week, by the BBC, the Badwolf website has been updated.
I has some more bits in the the theories section and a new UNSOLVED section with bits from RTD on it.

To quote RTD:
Quote:
“Judging from the reactions I've had, a lot of people seem to think the Bad Wolf has already been revealed. Oh, it's the TV station. Oh, it's half a million Daleks. I've even got one friend claiming it's the Face of Boe! I must get better friends.”

Maybe it's someone you don't expect:
