Big Finish is canon unless something directly contradicts something that is broadcast on television.
I think Moffat may have said something about Spare Parts still being canon despite what happens in WEAT/TDF, I might have dreamt that though.

Well let's see if the 1st Doctor continues to be chauvinistic.
Also speaking of Big Finish, is it even Canon?[/QUOTE]
Basically pretty much everything in Doctor Who is canon.
Hell, technically speaking the fucking Doctor Who/Star Trek crossover is canon. :v: (though it's non-canon in the Star Trek continuity)

also if the new music boy does turn out to be blair mowat I'd be happy with that solely based on
A) the music he did for the Time For Heroes trailer was amazing ([url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xuvx1q8IdC8[/url])
B) in Class he reused multiple Doctor themes which hopefully shows he's happy to use old themes along with new stuff - [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFjWjyjvdU4[/url]
while I want new stuff, it would be a huge shame if we were to *never* hear some of the old melodies again frankly so I'm glad he's seemingly not above doing that

I believe this proved to be quite the point of contention at Moffat’s Q&A. Someone even invoked Verity Lambert. He pointed out that he knew her.

Anyone know if there's a text transcript, audio, or anything for that panel?
Couple of high-res versions here.

That looks exactly like what I'd want from reimagining Doctor Who as if it were created for the first time in 2018

If that's also a sneak preview of the look they're going for with the title sequence then I approve.
About time! The previous logo was getting old after 6(?) seasons of barely varied versions. And the Season 7A gimmick with different versions each episode was dumb.
This looks sleek and modern.

This looks worthy of a Netflix show
If the intro sequence is like that clip, it's like they've taken apart all of the pieces that usually make up a DW intro, and then put them back together in a familiar but totally new way, and I hope that's the approach for the whole series
Filming in Gosport. Having originally been hidden away, seemingly so many people turned up that it was arranged for Whittaker and Bradley to meet people and a local BBC news team to do a little piece on it
have they just totally fucked cardiff off now then?

It's where the studio is but it has been less prominent for a while.
The days of Cardiff streets featuring in [I]every episode[/I] are gone.
I don't know how it works but isn't it time to change the title of the thread ?

At least with Torchwood it made sense.

(I know one of you mods is reading this, make it good kid)
[B]LOVING [/B]the new title and all the promo artwork coming out of this. It really feels like a full re-imagining of the show, and I'm honestly [I]so [/I]excited - which is unusual, because I haven't been able to feel [I]truly [/I]excited about this show for years.

Well the current tagline appears to be A New Dawn...
Gotta agree with Coyoteze, it feels good being excited about Doctor Who again. I think the last time was 2013-2014.
I was, and still are, sceptical to a female Doctor, but having everything else also change for the better (so far) makes me feel safer with the direction they are taking the show. At least the way everything looks now.
