I really do think she'll die. RTD has strongly implied it.

I really do think she'll die. RTD has strongly implied it.

I noticed a little earlier, there's a moment in one of the EOT trailers (I think the one that was on the end of WoM, but I don't remember) where Donna looks like she's mouthing "Doctor". Other things can fit, of course, but it really does look like she's mouthing "Doctor". Now, what happens if she remembers our old time traveling friend?

[DamnCoffee]

She burns up. Exactly.

But, I don't think it will be as straight forward as that.

Spoiler

Maybe the Doctor does die, and Donna gives up her regenerative energy for him, since she's part Time Lord. It would be quite a heroic way to go, I reckon.

Got a bit bored so I slapped this together. Tried my best to balance the audio, but I'm afraid some of it is still drowned out and you can still hear a few notes of the original music after Sigma says "bad dreams". Alas it was the best I could do without making it only music or only audio, because trying to re-layer some of the dialogue just created a mess. And being from different sources and having been edited in WMM, the clips kind of change size a bit; and it lied to me about one of the clips (you can still see a glimmer of the BBCOne Christmas logo-thing where in WMM it was 100% dark). Unfortunately youtube cuts it off a bit early, but whatever. All in all it's better than I thought it would be.



Oh, and if anyone's curious, the music I used is here.

Brian Cox

is in the last two episodes, then.

That is not Brian Cox's vocals there.

The Christmas Radio Times says otherwise.

[Tybre]

And sure sounds like Cox in the preview clips involving the Ood Elder.

Also, I come bearing gifts! Well, gift. Another interview with Bernard Cribbins, which (supposedly) gives a fair bit away if you think about it. Plus there's a new EoT clip!

"Not a word."
"Welcome aboard."

So it does. I take it back. It just sounded like someone doing a Cox.

Oh god... David Harewood is in this new episode... (not my favourite actor).

Thank God for Lord Cribbins!!

I was reading through the radio times last night, and there was an exclusive End Of Time preview and something came to my attention. I'll put it in spoilers, 'cause this is major...

Spoiler

'There we a lot of 'last' scenes for us all' explains Davies. 'The last day with poor old Wilf, Donnas final words, the last day on the TARDIS, the last day David used his sonic screwdriver... you name it! There was a lot of emotion on set. The most awful moment came with the four knocks...'

Now, the last day with poor old Wilf? Why is he 'poor'? does something really bad happen? Donnas final words? Why final words, it's pretty obvious that she won't return, so why didn't he say final scene? My guess is that she dies, and says something really emotional before she does.

I have the feeling that both Wilf and Donna will die. Man, End of Time will be BRILLIANT.

Surely Russell T Davies was referring to the process of making the shows (the last words, the last everythings etc) and not strictly anyone's death scene. Though the story with DONNA now is that she can easily die - and that she has now been left very vulnerable.

SPOILER WARNING!!

Though the TARDIS is indeed on its last throes at the moment. It is not just THE DOCTOR that may have cause to regenerate.

[Tybre]

Or maybe as she's still part TimeLord she dies from the brain burn out but comes back to life, much like Jenny did in TDD.

So according to this article the new season isn't set to begin until Easter. I was almost expecting another March start, because if you look at the past, Series 1 and 3 started in March, Series 2 and 4 in April. Of course nothing's official until we hear it from the BBC or some such, but I see no cause to doubt an Easter start. Oh and, 15 days 23 hours 43 minutes 55 seconds.

[Tybre]

An Easter start might get the shows finale in trouble being that the worldcup starts in June.
Somebody at BBC HQ is not thinking.

Well hey, like I said at this point it's just conjecture. Also, according to Wikipedia, Easter 2010 is April 4. Series 2 started on 15 April and Series 4 started on 5 April. Doomsday aired 8 July and Journey's End aired 5 July. So let's just say it's one episode a week for thirteen weeks from 3 April, since the 4th is a Sunday and I imagine Who will be keeping to Saturdays. That's 26 June, if there are zero interruptions. Now, in the past, some episodes have been delayed and I wouldn't be surprised if that happens again, but running straight through, yeah, they'll be getting into World Cup territory, but I imagine it'll be fine. The 2006 Cup was running during the end of Series 2 (in fact it ended the day after Doomsday aired) and Doomsday garnered 8.22 million viewers, which according to Wiki makes it the second most viewed program that week if you discount World Cup games. Journey's End had 10.57 million viewers, and let's remember this is two seasons later, when the show was much more popular than at the time of Doomsday, which certainly accounts for a chunk of the difference of figures. So I'd say the finale is no danger. It might not be the most-watched Who season finale, but it'll certainly be watched by plenty.

Oh and I just remembered why I came into this thread in the first place. Confirmed guest list for Series 5:

River Song - Alex Kingston
Vincent van Gogh - Tony Curran
Rory - Arthur Davrill
TBA - Meera Syal (Confirmed her appearence of the Paul O'Grady Show)
TBA - Caitlin Blackwood
TBA - Bill Paterson
TBA - Ian McNeice
TBA - Sophie Okonedo

DOCTOR WHO is a strong enough strand to withstand any schedule changes. To be honest, I would be more annoyed at the habit of shifting the slot for the previous series just to accomodate dull Lottery shows.

[DamnCoffee]

I've found out how to remove audio tracks from video, so I can just have either music, or dialogue and SFX. I've uploaded a few rescores.

Interview with Alexandra Moen. Not really much involving EoT, but figured I'd share.

New pic of Tardis in Wales

Spoiler

http://www.mirror.co...15875-21885360/



How does a new Time Lord land the Tardis on a tower? Caerphilly.

Doctor Who’s distinctive blue police box has travelled through time and space but bringing it to rest on the Welsh town’s castle took precision flying.

New Doc Matt Smith, 27, was thought to be at the helm.

A Welsh fan said: “The Tardis was lighting up the night. It would be a perfect way for Matt to make an entrance.”

Those are great: how did you separate?

[DamnCoffee]

I used Audacity.

[marktmurphy]

It does that too? I love that program.

[Tybre]

BBC Books have recently confirmed that the Eleventh Doctor, as portrayed by Matt Smith, and Amy Pond, as portrayed by Karen Gillan, will make their official book debut next April with the release of three new Doctor Who original novels. The Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond will also be appearing in the revived Decide your Destiny series, The Coldest War and Claws of the Macra, which originally featured The Tenth Doctor.

BBC Books confirmed that the three Eleventh Doctor novels will be titled; Apollo 23 by Justin Richards, Night of the Humans by David Llewellyn, and The Forgotten Army by Brian Minchin. Doctor Who Hideout will keep all readers informed regarding these upcoming Eleventh Doctor novels plus future books from BBC Books that will feature the Eleventh Doctor.

Apollo 23, Night of the Humans and The Forgotten Army will be released by BBC Books on the Twenty Second of April for the price of £6.99 around the United Kingdom and Ireland. The Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond will make their official television debut sometime next Spring on BBC One plus BBC HD with filming currently continuing on the Eleventh Doctor's first series.

[Mr. Blofeld]

How did you manage that? Did you separate the tracks and remove the music, leaving only the dialogue?

I like him a bit; it's a shame he never got to do more in the TV movie outside of getting shot and dying.

[Major D.Smythe]

Yeah, I try to forget the TVM. I can sit through the opening, until just before the Doctor is shot, and then I switch off. Still, theres always Rememberance & Fenric (or the entire series 26).

It's bad, but Paul McGann puts in a really good performance, despite the crap he's been saddled with; I'm actually surprised they didn't try and bring him back for the '05 revival, but, oh, well...

[DamnCoffee]

Actually, he was asked back. If I remember correctly, the first scene was to show a gravely injured eighth Doctor running away from the Autons, and regenerating. Dunno why that didn't happen, which is a great shame.

[Tybre]

Favorite Doctor, old Sylvester.

And Mharkin, I've never heard that anywhere before. Seriously, not even just as a passing rumor. Was it in the Daily Mail or the Sun or something? Because everything I've ever read says McGann was signed for the telefilm only, and pending how that went they would either sign him for future seasons or, as things wound up happening, letting him go and nothing became of Doctor Who. When the 2005 revival started up, they opted to completely ignore Paul McGann and give it a fresh start, so to speak. And then of course there were those End of Time rumors, which both the BBC and McGann discredited. McGann has, so far as I am aware, to date, only been invited back for Big Finish audio drama, which is both a shame and a very good thing, because the Eighth Doctor Adventures audio series is brilliant, but at the same time he could've stood with more time on TV. I still hope they do a proper multi-Doctor special episode ca. the classic series at some point and bring in McGann before he gets too old.

Yes that's news to me as well.
I think we all would have loved to see him regenerate at the beginning of the episode, but alas...

I'd don't know why they've never written more past 9th Doctor adventures, before he met Rose. I'm sure that it was indicated that he travelled the universe for a long time after the Time War. And there was the Sumatra, Titanic, and JFK storylines as well.

Just a thought.

Audio adventures would be cool as well. Don't know if Eccleston would do them though.

P
