04 Aug 13 - 02:52 PM (#3545521) Subject: RE: BS: The new Who From: GUEST,Musket curious Yeah but surely instead of some stunt or other, we should get to know who it is when he regenerates on screen? You see, marketing executives. Know how to market but have no concept of what they are marketing. You watch Dr Who in order to watch Dr Who so a publicity stunt over it takes away what the object is in the first place. A colleague went to the Dr Who proms night the other week. Being young, she assured me it was awesome. ... |

So decided to make a production of announcing it now. As this is the 50th anniversary year it's good to have an extra programme (and extra topic of conversation) to keep us going until the anniversary episode in November. Peter Capaldi previously appeared in the Dr Who episode "The Fires of Pompeii" as Caecilius opposite David Tennant. |

29 Oct 18 - 04:36 PM (#3959130) Subject: RE: BS: The new Who From: Nigel Parsons Gone now, replaced by Jodie Whittaker. But Capaldi definitely had his moments. For a music site, it's worth mentioning his bits with a guitar, possibly not quite up to his earlier musicality in "The Lair of the White Worm" where he could be seen wearing a kilt and playing the bagpipes though. |
