I feel it's disingenuous to not list the War Doctor in the OP

Again, not an ongoing series.

It was for a while and still would be!

(And he still has more eps than Tennant!)

How does that work? This sounds wibbily wobbly timey wimey to me, if I may. Been a while since I saw those eps/specials.

Talking about Big Finish. John Hurt did twelve episodes (over four boxsets for them), while Tennant, so far, has only done six (with another three this May).

Saw someone on Twitter try to say that the problem with this series was that every ep revolved around the Doctor being a woman. He never answered when I told him to cite examples.

It kind of reminded me of people who said The New Girl was bad because Zooey was playing a "Magical Pixie Dreamgirl". There was no quicker way of revealing that they never watched an ep.

Fun fact: The production crew for the TV Movie bought that TARDIS key off 800-Trekker (a mid-90s geek stuff companies that sold through catalogues like Thinkgeek/BBTS do today), based off the 3/4th Doctor design, but slightly inaccurate, which is why it looks like that.

I miss 800-Trekker. I bought sooo much Who stuff through them, including the first 15 BF releases.

CommonShore posted:

This might retread something that was posted earlier, but the methods of social control are different for the cybermen and the daleks. The cybermen impose uniformity through technological means primarily - a person's emotions and identity are removed via programming and circuitry.

Daleks have all of their emotions, and perhaps too much emotion, and that becomes the mechanism of social control and producing uniformity. A key piece of Dalek doctrine is purity, and such a fear of being identified as impure (of exposing one's self as dissenting) can function as a control mechanism. All of those technical doodads that we see are just a mechanism for narrowing the individual Dalek's experience to reinforce the overall uniformity of the Dalek race. Clara experiences censorship - her dissent from Dalek purity and doctrine gets rewritten to become orthodoxy as she tries to express it, so that no idea of individuality within Dalek hegemony can spread.

Goddamn I should write a "Revolution of the Daleks" story.

Just saw Resolution in a Berlin cinema because they were showing it today for reasons(?). Looked good on the big screen, nice mix, still funny. Weirdly, the audience (filling maybe 1/3rd of the place) barely reacted to anything though, which may just be Germans generally.

Can I make a "Maybe they were rooting for the Dalek" joke?

Who are the other six actors with even bigger resumes, holy hell?! I just tried looking that up, but am not hitting the right search terms. Though there are some pretty cool listicles about repeat actors --- I particularly find the ones that appeared in both classic and revival kinda . Also, I had no idea Julian Glover was General Veers in Empire Strikes Back.

Probably William, Patrick, Jon, and Tom. Fraizer too, I'd guess.

They're also doing one called "Anomaly" starring "Gordy Lethbridge-Stewart", the grandson of the Brig. There's a big banner on the front that reads "Kate Stewart is Dead!"

Ok when you guys get going about various who-related people and who-related projects of varrying degrees of obscurity I often tune out... but this one is weird enough to get my attention - can someone fill in a few of the details of who these people are and what they're doing?

Reeltime Pictures made DTV "movies". Since they couldn't get the Who license, they'd instead license characters or monsters from the creators, then cast actors who'd been in Who to star. Sometimes as the characters they'd played (Liz Shaw, Victoria Waterfield, and The Brig), or sometimes as new people. And sometimes as "not" their characters (Colin and Nicola as "The Stranger and Miss Brown).

They were made for about 10 pounds and not very good.
