Is it a spoiler if a Disney Plus press release announces the Christmas Special release date and title before the BBC?

Fil5000 posted:I seem to remember when the beeb did weekend morning repeats back in the late 90s/early 00s they never played any McCoy episodes either. I think the furthest they ever seemed to get was Revelation of the Daleks. You must have just missed it - aside from the repeat run in 1999 where they discovered no one was spending 7 weeks to watch Doctor Who and the Silurians, pivoted to Genesis and abandoned the whole thing, you’re going back to the 92/93/94 repeats which included Battlefield!

Oddly it’s not clear. A press release today said it was dropping 1:30PM EST and 11:30AM PST, which clearly contradict each other. If the EST time is correct then it’s dropping as the broadcast starts; if the PST time is correct then it’s an hour later.

I’m still astounded by the number of people who thought ‘RTD is back, we’re getting rid of Chibnall’s wokery’’

CommonShore posted:Ohhh right. And my stained and crumpled mental file card for it indiciates that Logopolis was one of my favourites from that overall era. Is that the one that was on Pluto? That might deserve a rewatch soon. No - the one on Pluto is Season 15’s The Sun Makers.

Tennant has said in the behind the scenes show that he doesn’t know who the Boss is, so the presumption is that he’s either lying or it’s something carrying over into Gatwa’s era.

Rochallor posted:Okay, I knew I had read something to that effect but couldn't remember where, it was really bugging me. So we're not talking the Occidental Toymaker, any bets on which classic series baddie we're bringing back? Personally I'm hoping for the Vardans, let's turn this into a show for five people. Professor Zaroff. Played by Peter Jurasik.

It was well known within fandom at the time, but most people wrote it off as Barrowman shenanigans. After Noel Clarke’s sexual assault accusations they were brought back to the forefront, suddenly there was a media fiasco and Barrowman was rightly called out.

Gaz-L posted:I wouldn't be shocked if they pull out a bit of reshot material from the original Toymaker story using NPH and Bradley next week in a flashback There’s a very very tiny part of me wondering if there’s any truth to these missing episode rumours, and next weeks episode is going to nonchalantly drop in a clip from a missing Toymaker episode.

So the Celestial Toymaker is unsurprisingly being animated. Not sure on this one… https://x.com/bbcdoctorwho/status/1732762310739997167?s=46

Edward Mass posted:A question to fellow Americans - have you seen ANY promotion for Doctor Who this year, either online on on TV? Because I haven’t, which could explain the viewership internationally. Disney+ didn’t even put up a launch page for Wild Blue Yonder until about 2 minutes before releasing it and it was a separate entity to The Star Beast, so if people want to catch up you’ve got to search out each episode individually (unless they’ve fixed it since Saturday)!

So I’m trying to figure out whether the whole situation on Earth was everyone just saying what they’re thinking without common sense stopping them? Because if so, Kate basically revealed she thinks Shirley is faking/overplaying her disability since she can walk at times, which is very awkward…

Cleretic posted:(And my brain wanted to say it also caused issues with the Hartnell story The Chase, but a quick scan of the Doctor Who wiki says no.) Your brain is right - the Beatles inclusion in The Chase has led to its DVD and Bluray releases outside of the UK being edited.

Gaz-L posted:I haven't been following things super closely but seeing some stuff suggesting the colourisation of The Daleks wasn't a one off? There was an interview with the team behind the colour Daleks on Radio Free Skaro about a month ago where they said a second colourisation was coming.

LividLiquid posted:Turnerizing used to be seen as incredibly disrespectful to the original creators of black and white media and I'm really curious when, exactly, this changed. I think the difference is that when Turner did then, there was no QA - it was pretty much run through colourising software and it’s done. With this, they’re making an effort to put out a decent product. Had they colourised it in the TNT fashion, then it would have been rightly slated.
