Its Graham Norton. It wasn't any different to any of his shows especially regarding that chair section.

Tbh i thought it was a waste of time them being on it the amount of air time they got.

Yeah, totally agree with that "blah blah hairstyles, blah blah 2 Doctors in one show WHAT?! blah blah sneer sneer"

The sheer number of times i've seen Tennant discussing the show properly these past few days it was probably a relief to let his hair down so to speak.

The 50th-anniversary edition of Doctor Who Magazine has proved so popular it is being reprinted just a week after publication.

Doctor Who News: Anniversary edition of DWM goes to reprint

its worth picking up - The 12 art cards are lovely.

The response I got from BBC shop was return the item to us and well send a replacement and reimburse your postage however considering the insurance I will need in order to cover the item, my initial postage outlay will be quite high.

Then begins the wait for the replacement and refund....

It's no wonder most people won't go past Amazon for customer service.

Well a couple of weeks on and I've finally received my new box set.

After making a complete nuisance of myself, BBC Shop finally provided me with a free post returns address however they said it could take 14 days for their returns department to validate the return and (it actually took 13 days) so not too good when you've laid out a hefty sum with nothing to show for it for 2 and bit weeks

Anyway I have the replacement set now which unbelievably was sent yet again with no bubble wrap (although thankfully this one is undamaged)

Just need to find time to watch them now

Wow. Just wow. That was worth the wait: totallly exceeded my expectations.

"No sir, ALL THIRTEEN!"

Oh and HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOCTOR WHO! HERES TO ANOTHER 50 YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brilliant episode. The 3D was pretty good too. All the Doctors appearing, my favourire Doctor, Tom Baker returning, and I'm sure that was Peter Davson's eyes near the beginning when Matt Smith's eyes changed as he said he's had many faces.

I'm more of a dr who watcher than a dr fan fan, I like it but not a real follower or geek etc and to be honest it bored me silly watched the 3d on the hd channel it wasn't that impressive, taped it off ch 977 in 3d and the 3d was better, for those who watched it in bbc hd in 3d it's being repeated again TOMMOROW in 3d on 977 if you want to see the difference, best 3d I've ever seen was the opening ceremony of the Olympics games WOW !

Thought 'Day' was pretty cool, great to see Billie of course, nice acting all round and a lovely way to involve Tom Baker,top stuff.
