    LOL - that's my ringtone! I always hope it's not really a phone call but the TARDIS showing up nearby...

    I figured out how to put the theme as ringtone, and I have the TARDIS sound for notifications now too. Good times.

    Scotty just reminded me in his thread...

    Not sure if you know but there is a charity event in the UK on Friday, I saw on the tvs while at the gym that there is a Doctor special I think at 7PM GMT for Children in Need

    Figure most of the UK gang would have seen it (via tv) but thought I would let the intercontinental nerds know

    I watched it back home from around 1970 isn all the way until they cancelled it - when 'Rose' was leaked I got re-hooked and have worked through pretty much every available episode between new series releases....

    I just started watching it this year and got through all the new stuffand I'm up to Tom Baker on the old. I love all of it but my favorite is David Tennant. My favorite companion is Billie Piper.

    seriously Doctor who is the greatest; I have a tattoo on my fore arm that is a quote from 'the almost People' saying "I am and always will be the optimist, the hoper of far flung hopes and the dreamer of improbable dreams."
    I am also looking for new friends so feel free to add me :wink:

    Google NZ has a Doctor Who theme today! :bigsmile: You can play a little game as any Doctor, and if you die, you regenerate into another!

    Mercifully they don't tell you how many doctors you killed getting all the letters :) my coworker told me about this on google.co.uk yesterday but I never got a chance to check it so I'm glad it hopped the pond.

    I'm recording today's and pretending it's not there until after Monday's theater event.

    LOL. I'm kinda glad to see it on TV first. I need subtitles for those pesky English accents at times.

    I don't hear well so I like them all the time, but especially for BBC stuff. I figured if there was anything I missed in the theater event I'd be able to go back and pick it up later, but now I think I've talked myself into watching it before :)

    I let myself watch a few minutes of it before switching away--it's a great candidate for 3D, ought to be pretty spectacular.

    I'm still at a loss for words, that was absolutely phenomenal !!! And still have my tickets in my pocket for this Monday's viewing at the theatre.

    Saw it in a small time, non- 3D viewing movie theater. Tons of Whovians that dressed up.

    Can honestly say I've been watching Doctor Who since I was born, back in the 80's. My mother was a big fan, named me after a companion even, and had most of the episodes taped. I've seen every single episode possible (a few of the earliest had gone missing by the time I was old enough to know what I was watching, but still) and could quote ALL the Peter Davison episodes, half of Tom Bakers, and about half of Sylvester McCoy's by the time I was 12 years old. XD

    Fell in love with New Who when it began airing and haven't missed an episode since.

    Five will always be ~my~ Doctor, though. :D

    50th Anniversary, aww yeah! Brilliant!

    (except that I've been sick for two weeks)

    Love Paul McGann so much.

    Loved the episode myself. My daughter liked it a lot too, then starting delving into it. I don't think its work it to go into does it fit, etc. She doesn't get that all the rules can be broken because she never saw the originals where there were rules and they got broken. Time Lords even broke their own rules on purpose.

    The only thing was the timelord speech to a bunny was a bit over the top.

    This was the best episode ever. It completely revolutionized everything from the 9th doctor on.

    Still haven't seen it and am pretty much spoiler free - looking forward to watching it on the big screen with a bunch of other Whovians tonight!

    Our DVR screwed up so I only got to see about 20 minutes of it. Waiting for my husband to come home now so we can go. Had The Worst Day Ever so I'm really looking forward to this!
