It's the Ace boxset next month that I can't wait for. Two McCoy stories at the same time... yay. :woot: |

Always thought her dialogue was badly written. |
I don't believe there is a bad McCoy story as I can find something good in each one, even if it's just McCoy as the Doctor. However, the ones I like more are: The Curse Of Fenric Survival Ghostlight Battlefield Rememberence Of The Daleks Silver Nemesis As for Ace (Sophie Aldred), I can't say a bad word about her. She just clicks with McCoy, and it doesn't take them long to buld up a chemistry, something I never felt was present with Bonnie Langford. |
Whilst on the subject of Ace, Sophie Aldred has said in a recent inerview that Russell T Davies had planned to have her make an appearance in a future episode of the Sarah Jane Adventures. But due to Elisabeth Sladen sadly passing away, the series came to an end before it could happen. |

Watched The Daemons over the weekend. I'd never seen this one all the way through before ( I'd only seen a couple of episodes ) and I have to say it was even better than I expected. Great performances all round ( Roger Delgado is terrific here ) impressive effects and good banter among the regulars. Great atmosphere too. A classic. I'll definitely be revisiting this one again soon. Highly recommended. |
6 Attachment(s) Wave Two of Target reprints due May. I love all these artworks. :happy: How cool is that Loch Ness monster? I bet it looks brilliant in the show. :rolleyes: |
Great to see another batch of these, although I'm a little disappointed there weren't more 'lost' Pat Troughton stories. Always loved that Tenth Planet cover mind. As for the Zygons, it is the one time I hope they do substitute some new ( Loch Ness monster ) effects. |
I've got loads of the original Target Who books in the attic. I think I may have some hardbacks, too. |

I used to love reading them when I was a kid - The Celestial Toymaker was one of my favourite stories (unfortunately one where the broadcasted episodes are almost all missing). I can remember giving my dad a list of the ones I still needed to get and him picking them up on his frequent business trips. :) |

Quite honestly, the stories i imagined were far better than what was actually televised :lol: I remember watching The Three Doctors on vhs anxious to see Omega attack all three Doctors using his powerful hand rays. I was certain the Ice Warriors had beams of electricity for weapons also. All because of Target books and their brilliant covers. |

Although, that said, I found Tomb of the Cybermen pretty creepy when I was young. It remains one of my favourite of any of the televised stories to date. |
The music to Tomb is very creepy. |

More interesting news: "In announcing the new companion this morning, the Doctor Who production team also confirmed the “split-season” theory that has been making the rounds on the message boards and elsewhere. According to the press conference, six episodes will be transmitted later this year, including the Christmas Special, followed by eight more episodes next year. The Ponds, Amy and Rory (Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill) will bow out of the series in episode five, which will feature the return of the Weeping Angels. According to the show’s head writer, Steven Moffat: “Amy and Rory will leave in a final encounter with the Weeping Angels in episode five. Not everyone gets out alive and I mean it this time.” The 2012 run of episodes will conclude at Christmas with the introduction of the new companion played by Jenna-Louise Coleman and the rest of the series will follow in 2013. No information was given today concerning what we can expect for the remainder of 2013, Doctor Who‘s fiftieth anniversary, but it is possible that more will be revealed at this weekend’s first official Doctor Who convention. [UPDATED]: It was announced that Daleks are also set to return sometime during the 2013 run of episodes."

I'm not so confident at the prospect of another Weeping Angels episode but it could potentially be quite a cruel story. Amy had an Angel in her consciousness or something, in the last Angel story - sorry, my mind's hazy about it. So, it could be linked to that. Moffat could make her the villain of the piece, similar to Peri in the Trial of a Timelord. That would be cool. |
It's a shame they're not involving the Daleks in the departure of the Ponds. Having them kill either one or both of them off would have been a great way to re-establish them as the Doctor's deadliest enemy. |
According to Doctor Who mag, the Daleks are back in the Autumn. https://twitter.com/#!/DWMtweets/sta...21032416718849 So thats Daleks, Angels and Zygons - lovely. |
Are the Zygons confirmed as returning, or is it just a rumour?... |

I don't want to admit to having seen the odd bit of Emmerdale, but I remember JLC. The 11th Doctor has impeccable taste in female companions. :nod: |
1 Attachment(s) Jenna-Louise Coleman My favourite companion since Peri. :happy: In some pics she reminds me of Christina Ricci. And she's from the North West. :clap: |
When her 5" figure is released, I bet it's gonna sell out. ;) |

Guys, Suggestions needed - which one do I get? Daemons or Face of Evil? |
Quote:
Although Face of Evil does introduce Leela. |
Quote:
Still, I think Daemons wins out. Thanks, Demdike :) |
Quote:
Being serious, although they are both recommended, I would agree with Demdike and suggest you get 'The Daemons'. Not only is is a double disc set, it is a good story, with all the main cast on top form It also has a very engaging commentary track, which I think I will probably listen to more than once Saying that, tho, 'The Face of Evil' is also an entertaining tale, and quite disturbing in places |
The Daemons :nod: |
