I'll be watching the ep at my student union followed by Eurovision, so tonight will be a pretty good night.
I'm very excited. What time will it be on tonight?

And when I mentioned this to a journalist friend he said 'Ive known that for a while"[/sp][/QUOTE] He says the Sun article is confusing. Journalists apparently already know the truth. Press pictures of [sp]Ben Daniels[/sp] have been seen by some. It's also worth noting usually at this point furious rumours have stared about the actor in the role leaving. This year we've had nothing. An article from a few tabloids speculating Matt might be leaving. But every other year we've had lists of possible successors etc. If journalists do already know the truth, the lack of article and rumour pieces could be due to an embargo.
Saw this on Tumblr. Contains huge Supernatural spoilers, for anyone who watches. [url=http://colinmorgasms.tumblr.com/post/50685433268/superwhomerlock-au-the-day-the-angels-fell]Damnit, even the URL had a spoiler.[/url] That's pretty great.

i fucking hate cross-show things i fucking hate the world 'fandom' i fucking hate tumblr in general. it just makes me cringe to see forced 'shipping' and making characters who obviously aren't gay (sup sherlock and john) gay and want each other's cock.

[QUOTE=Xonax;40687460]It looks like Billie is wearing a wig.[/QUOTE] Which she does for Rose [editline]18th May 2013[/editline] It's worth pointing out at this point that the girl in the above picture has a rounder face than Billie and a darker skin tone. Why would Billie Piper dress as Rose and go to a convention to take pictures with cosplayers?

[QUOTE=Xonax;40687515]She does? I can't hardly tell normally. Also it could be a Doctor Who convention and why would she not go as Rose?[/QUOTE] Because she's an actress, not a cosplayer.
[QUOTE=Xonax;40687515]She does? I can't hardly tell normally. Also it could be a Doctor Who convention and why would she not go as Rose?[/QUOTE] She wore one in Series 4 and in the specials. She'll have to wear one in Series 5 too. Her hair is very different now. And because she's a busy mother. In the JNT era Doctors use to turn up to conventions dressed as The Doctor but that was publicity. She wouldn't even own her costume. Why on earth would she wake up and go "God, I'm gonna dress as a character I played on TV a few years ago for no reason".

Why don't they use the new dalek designs? The only time they are used is in Victory of the Daleks, The Pandorica Opens and The Big Bang. Then they switched to the Ninth-Tenth Doctor Daleks in The Asylum of the Daleks. Basically these [img_thumb]http://www.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/wp-images/daleks/940/daleks-2010s.jpg[/img_thumb] Lasted for 3 Episodes. While these [img_thumb]http://tardistopia.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/daleks.jpg[/img_thumb] are still being used. Also on the daleks next to the middle one, they don't have plungers.
Can we put this back in the OP? [URL]http://tinychat.com/fpdw[/URL] The off topic chat. Sorry but I get confused on Steam because I have no idea who everybody is. I might no be on after, I think I got friends over. [editline]18th May 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Xonax;40688231]Why don't they use the new dalek designs?

The red ones voice is very similar if not the same as the new ones.

I distinctly remember hearing the terms "humpback" and "Mighty Morphin' Dalek Rangers", or something close, describing Moffat's versions.

When Victory aired they said these would be the new Dalek designs. When Asylum aired they said they never intended them to be the new Dalek designs. It was back-peddling. They never said why but it's pretty obvious. It was a stupid idea to make them so huge and pretty.

The color scheme and overall shape does leave something to be desired, though.
