Despite what others have said, we really don't know one way or another.
I suspect they don't know the amount of time they'll use.

Handy stole a piece of TARDIS coral or whatever. Not that I think it's actually Handy
Oh God, they're going to reveal one of these pictures from the read through with a new cast member every day, aren't they?
On Friday, they show one with Eccleston and we all lose our shit.
Also, both pictures have had a Dalek plunger poking in to the bottom left corner.
If Eccleston was in then my shit would be well and truly lost. Seriously, I'm freaking out just thinking about it.
The picture of Tennant and Smith is almost enough to send me over the edge.
They said it'll either be an hour, 75, or 90 minutes. They're going to start filming and look at pacing and things, presumably, and go from there.
IE they're not putting a limit on it, so there's nothing to worry about. It'll be the length it needs to be.

To play Parcheesi.
Wibbly wobbly timey wimey.
Time travel! They're bound to run into one another at some point.
If you go by some past experiences even some of the Doctors did not exactly care for one another and took another Doctor to keep them from bickering.

No bigger than any other special episode (like Christmas) really. The way BBC commissioning works they can't really drop a ton on this specific episode just because of what it represents.

Well, they already did Time Crash. Peter Davidson should be next in the lineup.
Though Christopher Eccleston's presence would make me flip my lid.

But might that change if its getting a theatrical release ?
It is getting a theatrical release, in the UK at least. Pretty sure the budget is still the same, they would have said something if it was more presumably.

Ah, I see.
All this talk of 3D and theatrical release etc, was making me think of the McGann special.
I don't care, I will still probably love it.

That's why I thought they would get somebody who can put bums on seats.
The Beeb manages to get big US names working for relatively peanuts.

The audience would be pretty cool, you would have to get a Tom Baker scarf and some jelly babies.

If it's getting a worldwide cinema release, even a limited one, you can bet that BBC Worldwide are adding to the pot. I wouldn't be vastly surprised to hear BBC Films had an input, too.
EDIT: AAAAHHHHHH
My first thought too.

Can people please be spoiler tag things that haven't been broadcast on the BBC?
Oh shit sorry. Didn't realize, thought I posted in the 50th thread. I'll edit.
I sincerely apologize.

Done, but this has been officially revealed by the BBC. We didn't spoiler the Ice Warrior pictures when they were revealed, did we?

That's true. Can we add a spoiler policy to the first post?
I guess if BBC have officially announced it's not really a spoiler, would be nice to tag it for others.
Is that a real design...
Looks like an updated version of their older design. Not sure if it's new or not though.
I love it personal. Cheesy Doctor Who is best Doctor Who.
You are absolutely right infiniteloop and I am really sorry, but it's just that the BBC is being so public about 50th details that apart from putting oneself in a complete media blackout to everything Doctor Who it's near impossible to avoid.
Within a few minutes it popped up on Facebook and Twitter. I was also caught by surprise when even The Verge mentioned the Tennant news.
I do agree though, I would prefer to be caught completely by surprise.

Hey, no one should be hating on the design of the

Easily amongst the best designs the classic series put out, and these are pretty faithful.

My guess is the villain reveal is connected with who Clara really is.
Ugh I hope not. When be kinda cliche. I'm hoping they're saving that reveal for the Christmas Special and putting the spotlight on Smith/Tennant for the 50th.

No probs. I thought it was a set pic taken by a fan at first.
Moffat has said [Series 7/Clara spoiler]
the mystery of Clara will be resolved by the end of Series 7
Yeah I know.
I'm assuming that the Christmas Special is part of Series 7, they've always treated them as sort of a transition so I'm sure it's included in his statement. If it's LITERALLY by the end of Series 7, then it'll be in the season finale and definitely not in the 50th

Hopefully once her mystery has been solved she'll remain an interesting and intriguing character, unlike a particular lady by the name of River Song.

In slightly different news, Phillip Reeve is writing the Fourth Doctor ebook.
Loved Mortal Engines when I was a kid.

Why was he on for only one season? I really liked him as The Doctor, not that I don't love them all but I felt we didn't have enough time with Eccleston. He reminded me or a zany modern day Max Headroom
Mind you my first entry into the Who series was the 2005 reboot all the way to just pre Matt Smith and then the classics. So Eccleston was my first Doctor really.
Edit: He was also good on that show "Cracker"
Implying River was ever bearable.

True, but at least there was some sort of reason to keep her around. Now it's just Moffatt's own love for his character,
