Doctor Who - Spoilers!

[pixletwin]

There is a special this Easter, the 3 more specials around Xmas/Boxing Day/New Years (exactly when is uncertain). Then nothing again until the start of series 5 which won't be until Spring 2010.

Yeah... long dry spell.

 

[SpawnFan]

Damn Spring 2010! What the hell am I gonna watch till then!

 

[pixletwin]

Torchwood

 

[SpawnFan]

I am watching that right now actually, Season 2!

 

[Kabukiman]

..... so does that mean its gonna be easter? Im at a loss, seams like I've been waiting forever. I don't remember it being this long of a wait for previous seasons.

That's because, as has been stated, we're not getting a full season this year. We're getting three "specials."

One of the best seasons of television you will watch! Can't wait to finally get my hands on the Blu-Ray this summer!

Ahem... "four" specials.

 

[Kabukiman]

Ahem... "four" specials.

The Christmas special doesn't count because it aired in 2008 and we would've gotten that anyway.

And it could be argued that episode 206 only counts as one since it is a two parter.

I didn't get the christmas special I'll probably end up having to get it on dvd in the end, but thats ok it will complete my collection

PM sent!

I wonder if they will release the specials on DVD as a set, or if they will be be single episode purchases...

I can see it as a "box set": Doctor Who - The Specials.

If I were counting the 2008 Xmas special that would make 5.. but I am not. I thought we cleared this up months ago.

One more time... Listen up...

First special = Easter Planet of the Dead

Second (with Lindsey Duncan), Third, and Fourth (a two parter which will be Ten's finale) to air around Christmas and New Years.

I count FOUR specials.

Let us know what you think!

 

[pixletwin]

Well obviously unless they are broadcast back-to-back they are two episodes. Way to muddy it up and confuse the issue.

Episodes do not equal stories. What exactly were you trying to accomplish by unnecessarily splitting hairs?

A nerd war. I'll drop it.

Molto bene.

Nice find.

 

[Kabukiman]

I really didn't expect that video to be real. Sweet, thanks!

In *maybe* Doctor Who related news: The clue for one of Amazon's gold box deals for today is

This British Sci-Fi set is out of this world- and so is the price!

It's set to go off at 2:00 PDT. Could be Who, could be Torchwood, could be something else.

False alarm. It ended up being Space 1999 - 30th Anniversary Edition Megaset.
