The Doctor Who Thread

I prefer the metallic look on the newer Daleks as well.
I don't mind the design of the Slitheen and don't mind them reappearing, would be nice if they sorted the farting problem out though.
I really liked the Sycorax, shame they haven't used them again.
Kinda could be used again too i feel.

Oh and of course the Rani needs to re-appear, but they've sort of made her redundant with the new female Master.

I shall be picking this up. I love the early historical stories. Pity they don't feature on the cover though.

Panini’s acclaimed bookazine series The Essential Doctor Who continues, with a lavish 116-page issue about the Doctor’s journeys into Earth’s past.

Adventures in History includes interviews with:
Artist Jeff Cummins (Doctor Who Discovers)
Story editor Gerry Davis (The Highlanders)
Actor Bernard Kay (The Crusade)
Costume designer Odile Dicks-Mireaux (The Visitation)
Writer John Lucarotti (The Aztecs)
Writer Jamie Mathieson (The Girl Who Died)
Actor Ian McNeice (Victory of the Daleks)
Director Saul Metzstein (Dinosaurs on a Spaceship)
Writer Marc Platt (Ghost Light)
Story editor Donald Tosh (The Massacre of St Bartholomew’s Eve)
Artist George Underwood (The Doctor Who Dinosaur Book)
Actress Anneke Wills, who played Polly in The Smugglers and numerous other stories.

Elsewhere in this packed issue, Andrew Pixley reveals Donald Cotton’s notes for the 1965 story The Myth Makers, timelines chart the Doctor’s adventures from the creation of the Earth through to 1963, and 15 trips into history are revisited, from the era of the First Doctor right through to that of the Twelfth.

Editor Marcus Hearn says:
History in Doctor Who is about much more than the purely historical stories that were made in the 1960s. We decided to follow the Doctor’s entire journey through Earth history, with some of our best writers and designer Peri Godbold as our guides. We’ve never done anything quite like this before, and some of the rare pictures we’ve uncovered are amazing.

You might have had a thing for strange tribes, who knows? Could be a cannibal flick thing? Maybe you want to see the tribe of Gum make an appearance in the new series as well.

Apparently Nardole, played by Matt Lucas and seen in last years Christmas Special ('The Husbands of River Song') is to become a regular character in season 10.
