"Yes dear hiding behind the sofa" my reply; but the damage has already been done. I can't shake the feeling of how comfortable and familiar everything from the 60's seemed to be. To complicate matters I've seen more Doctors this weekend than in the NHS! And certainly more austerity than a plague of Tories could create.

Great use of the hero characters, it seems the Sinister character is a popular choice
Now, Muvizu HQ, can we drop the arms as a second choice of standing pose?

I second this!

Fun fact - The original title sequence was made by pointing a camera at a screen showing what the camera was filming. To make your face go into it, you just had to go between the camera and screen.

Also actually I liked that docu-drama more then the Dr. Who special is that lame or what?

I stopped watching after hrm also tom baker but it was more that I ran out of time as i worked 12 hour night shifts so maybe that had something to do with it. My favourite one believe it or not was Jon Pertwee I was very disappointed when he was replaced and I never got to see the original doctor I started getting to watch it from doctor #2 as a rerun catch up as I watched doctor #3 and started to loose interest during tom baker.]]> Sun, 24 Nov 2013 18:32:29 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3210-the-day-of-the-doctor-trailer-in-muvizu.aspx Message from ziggy72

Secondly, my brother built the Daleks used in the BBC drama "An Adventure In Time & Space" as well as trundling around inside the lead one (since he built them, he insisted on being Dalek Wrangler). He sold one of the Daleks to the writer Mark Gatiss, incidentally. Still got 2 in storage I think, if anyone has thousands to spend on a full size Dalek you can pedal around in ]]> Sun, 24 Nov 2013 18:16:57 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3210-the-day-of-the-doctor-trailer-in-muvizu.aspx Message from artpen

OK - so my Dr Who memory.......

In the 1970's Dr Who was all the rage and the good people at Weetabix were giving away a Dr Who "press out and keep" cardboard figurine with each packet of their tasty wheat based breakfast cereal.

Our junior school had the intake from two villages - Burton Latimer and Barton Seagrave. I was from the considerably more sophisticated (or so we thought) Barton Seagrave, but the worldwide Weetabaix factory was in Burton. In fact if you could smell Weetabix in our garden - then you knew it was going to rain (seriously, Burton was to the North, or something - not sure of the science here.).

So at our school a good proportion of the kid's parents worked at the Weetabix factory and consequently the playground was awash with Dr Who cards. When I say awash, I really mean it. There would be clouds of Cybermen cards blowing against the fence, mixed with some sea devils.

I genuinely remember trying to swap 100 gold daleks for a davros.

Woah, incredible story! ]]> Sun, 24 Nov 2013 12:42:41 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3210-the-day-of-the-doctor-trailer-in-muvizu.aspx Message from MrDrWho13 Sun, 24 Nov 2013 08:43:37 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3210-the-day-of-the-doctor-trailer-in-muvizu.aspx Message from primaveranz ukBerty wrote:

Hey those brought back memories. Mind you, I saw episode 2 and have always regretted missing episode 1 as I wondered why Barbara and Ian followed Susan back to the Tardis anyway.

I watched it more or less avidly up until John Pertwee's arrival when it became increasingly tedious as he seemed permanently trapped on Earth and surrounded by those useless UNIT troops who never learned that their rifles were ineffective against Daleks, Cybermen, Zarbis, Ice Warriors, Yeti...you name it. They were the precursors of Star Trek's Red Shirts or Star Wars' Stormtroopers in that regard.


My fave aliens were the Mechanoids

I only really got back into it with the arrival of David Tennant (ok maybe it was because of Billy Piper - best assistant since Leela

P.S. Seems my decision was a common one:- http://www.express.co.uk/news/showbiz/443320/David-Tennant-and-Billie-Piper-are-voted-the-best-for-Doctor-Who-50th-anniversary]]> Sun, 24 Nov 2013 01:18:12 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic3210-the-day-of-the-doctor-trailer-in-muvizu.aspx Message from fazz68 MrDrWho13 wrote:
