This is incredibly sad news, especially as she'd said recently that she'd love to return as the Rani and thought older women made great villainesses
What's been going on since Christmas, what have I missed?
[QUOTE=DiscoInferno;44411075]What's been going on since Christmas, what have I missed?[/QUOTE]
We have a costume, a new Mickey/Rory, and a villainess. At least, that's what's come through official channels. Unofficially? [I]Sequins[/I].
So it's not started yet?
[QUOTE=DiscoInferno;44416076]So it's not started yet?[/QUOTE]
The season is going to commence airing in August(a full 13 episodes too!).
I'm just chomping at the bit for a trailer or enough money to buy Dark Eyes II, whichever comes first.
I think they've filmed three episodes so far? But don't quote me on that.
(Would it be too spoilery if I used the one [sp]picture with grumpyCapaldi with sequins, or Capaldi sticking his head out of the TARDIS[/sp] as my avatar?)
Jesus fuck, just that damn thumbnail scares the shit out of me.
Now that our spoiler policy has reached new heights with the omission of whether a prop is remaining the same between episodes, I have decided to get it over with and list everything I have learnt about Series 8.
[sp]- It will start airing from August 23 onwards.[/sp]
- River Song will [sp]be resurrected for Doctor Twelve.[/sp]
- [sp]The Christmas Special will be Clara's final episode -[/sp]facing newly designed Slitheen.
- The Master [sp]will return,[/sp] played by Keeley Hawes.
- [sp]An episode is being[/sp] directed by Capaldi himself. It will star Chris Addison & Roger Allam.
- [sp]After six or seven episodes[/sp] of investigation, The Doctor will [sp]conclude[/sp] that Danny Pink [sp]is a[/sp] ganger.
- Paul McGann [sp]will be playing a[/sp] Zygon imposter.
- Rebecca Front [sp]will come on board the TARDIS during the finale.[/sp]
- The Friction Contrafibulator button has changed colour.
- Mark Gatiss [sp]will at some point announce[/sp] his Executive Producer status [sp]alongside Moffat[/sp] for Series 9.
- Xander David-Hugh[sp] has been commissioned to produce the [/sp]opening titles sequence after VFX company [I]Milk[/I] was acquired by Facebook.
- The Key to Gallifrey will be located within [sp]the painting that the First Doctor picked up during the very first episode.[/sp]
- The [sp]rabbit[/sp] that the Tenth Doctor chased down in Day of The Doctor was [sp]actually The Animalia Doctor.[/sp] An unknown [sp]incarnation born between[/sp] his 18th & 19th lives.
[sp]Yes, yes. They are all true.[/sp]

what a shocking revelation!
It's after 12 noon here in Britain. I guess we can still prank Whovians in the US though.
Grizz that post is really weird/stupid.
You give half of the things away even though you put spoiler tags in the post.
Alright I'll leave the thread for now.

Once I googled "Keeley Hawes" to see who they were, I remembered what date it was.

He actually looks cool with goatee. Kinda "Ryan Gosling" vibe.
Jack Robinson, the four-year-old who Matt Smith recorded a video message for, has passed away due to a brain tumour.
:(
Apparently he never got to meet the Doctor.. proper fucking sad.
I hope he got to meet Matt like he said he would.

How did this show up, "2 minutes ago" when it wasn't there when I hit reply 30 seconds ago?

8x01: Moffat
8x02: Ford
8x03: Gatiss
8x04: Moffat
8x05: Thompson
8x06: Roberts
Ian Hallard is playing [sp]Allan A Dale. We have our Robin Hood episode?[/sp]
We've known Gareth Roberts was returning for awhile now
they should get the cast from the [sp] Robin Hood BBC show to appear in the episode [/sp]
And while you're at it, why not have an episode set in 17th century Paris where The Doctor faces off against an evil doppelganger named [del]Salamander[/del] Cardinal Richelieu
[QUOTE=ElectronicG19;44429370]they should get the cast from the [sp] Robin Hood BBC show to appear in the episode [/sp][/QUOTE]
You could have waited for the trailers to find that out :v: I need an EG19 Spoiler Policy.
