Spoilers for last episode of series 5:

I'm loving that if you go to this fez at Amazon and scroll a few pages into the "Customers Who Viewed This Item Also Viewed" section, you start finding bowties and Doctor Who items.

"Basically...run." When I heard that, I actually laughed and clapped. I know I'm enjoying something when I react like that.

I'm with WW - that coming soon was amazing. It's gonna be very, very hard to hold out for the boxset, but I'll just keep reminding myself how good it's going to look. (EDIT: Jeez, $63 is the pre-order price on the Blu-ray on Amazon?)

And I might just keep this on repeat until then: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUMEzUMcu64

Wow at this thread. All you guys living vicariously through WanderWind. In no time at all he'll be finished, and you'll be forced to return to your lives as hollow husks until Christmas time. :lol


...seriously, it's not healthy, the more I read this thread, the more I'm becoming the same. :s

I, for one, think it's perfectly healthy. I'm going to be watching the second episode tonight. Last night, my wife wanted to "spend time together" or some shit. Psh.

Got a tweed jacket from a charity shop yesterday. Pity it's grey instead of brown.

I got an old tweed jacket off my dad. Unfortunately, the sleeves are a bit long and it has no leather (are they leather?) patches. Right colour and design though.

Your local tailor should be able to fix both of those problems. :D

Don't know where else to ask this, but this thread seems to have a big density of Britishmen: am going to the Doctor Who prom on Saturday, I have tickets and stuff, but... how late do I get there? Should I be there at the time labeled as 'when doors open', or earlier than that?

What time do they say doors open? I'd say earlier, this one's going to be veeery popular.

Doors open at 18:45, 45 minutes before the thing starts. Seats are the (Upper) Choir area, I think. And... yeah, if this was a less-popular prom, I'd feel fine at getting there just as the doors open. But besides maybe the Last Night, this seems like it'll be the busiest of them all. Any hints are welcome, then. Never been to a Prom before.

I shouldn't think there'd be a problem getting in before it starts arriving at the door time, but any extra time to get you higher through the very long queue would make itself worth it.

Also: the very in depth guide to 11th Doc cosplay - http://community.livejournal.com/dw_cosplay/375443.html

That guide is... almost scarily precise and in-depth. Awesome, though. :lol

And, yeah, we'll probably try and get there earlier. Am very excited for it.

Info from latest Doctor Who Magazine:

- Neil Gaiman's episode is very expensive and was moved back from series 5, so they could to do it justice.
- Beth Willis (EP) is not leaving.
- Moffat talks about series 6, the 13 episode series, as being almost a "year away". The magazine itself mentions that series 6 will "air sometime next year". Moving time slots?
- Question: What exactly has or hasn't happened in the Doctor Who universe, now that the series is over? Are all bets off, as far as Doctor Who 'history' as we know it?
Moffat: More like all bets that we feel like ignoring are off. The increasing problem in Doctor Who is that the people in the show live on a completely different planet from us. They're like 'look, more aliens, planets in the sky, ho hum!'. But history has wobbled. We can have characters suprised at the existence of aliens again, if we feel like it. But let's be honest - it's only us fans who give a toss about all this. So don't expect any 'history has wibbled' scenes. This is just a way for us all to justify continuity errors to ourselves, so we can sleep at night. Don't all thank me at once.
- S6 hints: "You've seen more than you think. The Doctor has noticed what you have not. And when the biggest jaw-dropping twist finally comes - well, the second one - you'll realise you've known about it from the very beginning."

I like that he's disregarding humanity's knowledge of aliens existing. Everything else sounds delicious!

This upsets me. Why did he have to say that? Now I feel inadequate :( What did I miss? I don't like unknown knowns!

Any ideas?

Maybe it is about Amy's house having too many rooms. The Doctor seems to touch upon this.
