  • In answer to Miss Hartigan's question; "No, it's too epic for us".

  • For me this was the best Christmas episode they have don.

  • The end of that trailer would have been cool in 3D!

  • anyoone know where ic an watch this, i missed it and only got back into doctor who today

  • @joe081996 DVD

  • @joe081996 sometimes shown on bbc 3

  • noel feilding would be quite a good doctor i think :)

  • have you not noticed that most episodes after christmas start after Easter?

  • I wish Jackson Lake really was the next Doctor. I don't think the new guy is as good. :(

  • give him a bloody chance for god sake

  • Me neither........Well lets rephrase that...

    I dont think the new guy looks the part..

    May be awesome at acting....But look wise.....Nah...

  • Im beginning to think he would have made a good Doctor.

  • The next episode "Planet Of The Dead" might contain the Brigadier and UNIT!!

    I wonder who the the next Doctor`s companion might be.Apparently he is just going to have temporary new companions!

  • The Brigader is still alive? Wow.

  • Yeah, he apeared in the Sarah Jane Adventures series 2 finale, Enemy of the Bane, to assist Sarah Jane Smith in breaking into the UNIT vaults, to get an important artifact, the scroll of Horath. But yeah, he's 78 now and NEEDS to appear either before David Tennant leaves or at least at all, before the actor, Nicholas Courtney dies. Courtney already knows Tennant from working on a Doctor Who Big finish Audio adventure, where David Tennant didn't play the Doctor, David Warner did.

  • the episode didn't live up to my expectations unfortunately :(

  • Easter Special, "Planet of The Dead".... :)

  • not the greatest episode was expecting a little more but enjoyed it, but with dr who they tend to keep one episode low key and blow you away with the next, so i'm lookin forward to the next special

  • God I'll miss David!! He's a great actor, and was PERFECT for the Doctor. I do hope that Colin Salmon is the new doc though, it's probably time for the first black doctor. But I love David, and he'll be greatly missed (as well as Donna and Rose)!!

  • i told u it wold be a cybercunt

  • I was very disappointed at this. They got to the revelation too early, there was too much action and not enough storyline, and the Miss Hartigan character was depicted awfully.

    Sorry, BBC, as much as I love you (and David Tennant) this was a failure in my books. I'd've much rather have watched Voyage of the Damned again.

  • This christmas special was great ( :

  • -6 Wow.... The 11th Doctor is Mark Gatiss

  • Am i the only one who thought this was a rather dull episode? The cyber-shades weren't even EXPLAINED.

  • excellent DR WHO special - loved it - pity that David Morrissey is not the next DR - as david is leaving soon -

  • In my opinion this was the best Xmas special of the new series so far. The Cyber King was awesome!

  • aaaahhhhhh!!!! only 25 mins left!!! cant w8!!!

  • Minutes away now!!!! Wonder when the Rani is coming, this year or next????

  • Darlek's .... never when you bloody need them!

  • I think the David Morrissey Doctor is the Doctor's counterpart from the parallel universe where the cybermen came from.

  • DR WHO GOES TO THE MOON Christmas Special

    WATCH MY YOU YUBE FOR INFO

  • possible, we'll find out in just over 30 mins!

  • thats what i thought to-- but still it was a brilliant DR who special--

  • 0:17 looks like a steam punk cyberman

  • No.

  • its just like camden town high street on a saturday night !

  • i think he's a 'fan'

  • a rusty cyberman

  • 0:17 what sort of cyberman is that

  • a cybershade

  • and what is that

  • I'm guessing that it might be the Cybermen of OUR universe (finally) though I could be wrong...

  • As negative as you will be rated for that, I burst out laughing at that response xD

  • thank you :)

  • I'm going to kill the BBC if that guy is the new doctor!

  • sue them! that guy sounds so retarded, the one, the only, and the best. arrgh i wanted to punch him!!

  • thats not a bad idea actually. imagine if rose somehow became the doctor!

  • i want a companion thats shagable like martha

  • it is actually called The Next Doctor

  • shit thats what i meant lol

  • They really need some new ideas! Its either cybermen or the daleks in every single important episode really. Not saying i dont enjoy because i don't think ive missed one to date, but still.

  • with all the speculation over who the next doctor will ACTUALLY be, no ones ever thought about the companian .. hmm .. interesting .. is it that girl on the video, because she seems a bit .. ooer.

  • apparently david hurt his back doing a stunt (tennant) and had to have an operation ??

  • wow, cant wait till this :D. not long now!!! x

  • Apparently the last ten minutes is very very exciting. And the last 3 minutes is almost jaw-dropping as Utopia, or so iv'e read and the Fear Factor thing sort of makes it look believeable.

  • also, theres gonna be a HUGE twist at the very end. OMFG I CANT WAIT! ONLY FOUR DAYS T GO!

  • Its to obvious that the other Doctor is actually the Doctor I am leaning towards The Master, Morbius or the meddiling Monk

  • Davids doctor...modest...HA! 10 knows he's brilliant and isn't afraid to show it.

  • whayyyy david morrisey for the next doctor who! fingers crossed

    either that or i think they should get philip glenister cuz he'd be faaaaaaaaaab.

    or rik mayall.

    dammit i'm spoilt for choice.

    david tennants amazing though aint he =D

  • apperently the new doctor is all the doctors morphed into one

  • WOW that would be good to see !

  • probably a different doctor from another dimension

  • who is the woman at the start who says ...

    "Dont be stupid!" ... i know her off something! Someone please tell me :)

  • I think she was a character in 'Kerching' on cbbc. I dont know if thats where u might have seen her though, as im sure shes worked in other programmes as well.

  • Yes! It is :)

    Thank you soooo much :P

    Looks Fab dont it?

  • lookin gd and the show is based on an unset changing timeline so its not physically possible to recycle ideas as any prominent idea will apear at more thn one time point in case the television was claimed to be invented by many different people the one we recogniese as its inventor is the onewho copyrighted it first

  • Am i the only one (now i know this is silly) But am i the only one who is very paranoid that maybe this will be Davids last episode.

    And they've tricked us into thinking hes doing four more, to add to the shock and take us off the scent.

    Now i know it wont happen lol. But on many episodes they have that bit where you think the doctors about to die, if they have that on this one i'll be in tears thinking its really going to happen! xD

  • SAME HERE

    IM TERRIFIED

  • David's doctor was never modest, you silly thing.

    'I'm brilliant'

    'i'm clever'

    'oh, doctor, you're so handsome'

    he's as up his own arse as he can get!

  • David Tennant > David Morrissey

  • guess whos back back back

    back again again again

    well the cyber men tbh.

    bless one of david tennants last episodes :(

    seriously if that guys the next doctor i will neber watch it again.

  • I hope that guys not the next doctor, i know Tennants going but him??? :(

  • The "Other Docto" is likely to be an imposter,pretending to be him.

  • mabye the doctors traveled in the futre and sees him self in hes next regeneration or something

  • I read the Fear Factor on the BBC website, he really is one of the regenerations of the Doctor, he could be a younger version of the first Doctor, or he could be the eleventh or twelve.

  • he wouldnt be a younger 1st doctor, because then DTs dr would realise

  • Not really it as 900 years ago he might of forgot.

  • i reckon the new doctor david morrisey is a clone of the timelord as a human or something that the cybermen made. Agree or Disagree ???

  • This looks shit.

    Why do they keep recycling the same ideas?

  • hahaha well said

  • How does it look shit and how are they recycling the same ideas?

  • Well..

    Cybermen... We've never seen them before! Or having two doctors, which has happend twice now.

    And as for looking shit... just my opinion.

  • I'm taking it one Doctor at a time, this one is still a goer right now. This will brighten up a rather dull Christmas for me. This will be a lovely present from the BBC to me for paying my licence fee. I will miss Donna though.

  • i think it has to be the BBC for Christmas Day. Don't forget the New Wallace and Gromit adventure. Great viewing for all ages :)

  • Perhaps the Doctor will have problems with his next regeneration. Three actors will play the 11th Doctor in the Final Special Episode of 2009. And the public will get to choose WHO stays...? All money made from the Phone calls & TXT would go to "Children in Need 09". Just a thought :)

  • how onearth do the cybermen comeback???????? they get sent through a void they get trapped in a parrallel universe, got nows whats happened to them in the past like 40 years ago so how the fuck???

  • It's Science Fiction, anything can happen. Rose wasn't meant to be able to come back, but she did.

  • cyber controller in it nice and ive heard that the victorian black lady is that new doctors companion

  • Paterson joseph as the Doctor,With sally sparrow returning as his new companion. Sounds Great...,but I still think Andrew Lincoln should be the 11th Doctor :)

  • i think it should be micheal jackson

  • I'd quite like the next companion to not be such a big personality next series. The Doctor-Rose-Martha love triangle got a bit tedious towards the end, and Donna was just plain annoying. Have a companion of old - can hold their own fine enough but plots don't revolve around them.

  • yeah it would be fantastic if maybe one of them actually made an appearance and not a flashback! can't wait. apparently there will be a confidential on jan 3rd talking about all 10 doctors. cant wait

  • yea, it would be really good if all the drs were in it! I can't wait!

  • dazza4729 - Crikey! working on christmas day. don't worry the DVD's out Jan 19. RTD said: there will be past Doctor's in this special - 8 & 9?????

  • actually there will be ALL 10 Doctors in the special. There will be a bunch of flashback clips

  • i read about that today, i hope its actually true!

    will be good!

  • the last two christmas specials i have been working and had to wait for the dvd to come out.. this year, having the opportunity of finishing at 7pm and be home just in time, they decide to put it on at 6pm... I CAN'T WIN...lol

  • you can watch it on bbc i-player ;)

  • I MISS DONNA NOBLE! and when david tennant has left, I WILL MISS HIM TOO!

  • Me too.

    Sally Sparrow should have been his new assistant.

  • sally sparrow would make a great assisstant

  • i think that the xmas episode is set in the PARRALELL UNIVERSE becuse there is cybermen, Another Doctor and to top it off, the woman in it is called ROSEeta. wot do you think about this?

  • i think you are wrong there. if you can remember in the battle of the cybermen and the deraks (doomday). the cybermen started doing upgrades on people who worked in touchwood. so on the doctor does that thing that shucked all the cybermen and the deraks into the wall but what about the cybermen that got upgrade in universe 1

  • morrisey is NOT the the new doctor, the new doctor is rumored to be Paterson joesph.

  • what are you talking about?

    why was martha unlikeable? she's been the best companion. she was clever and down to earth, donna was also down to earth

  • Too true, Martha was the best.

  • I don't know exactly how to explain it succinctly, footyking77. I+everyone I know was totally turned off by Martha. Maybe I could go into it if I had 2000 words' allowance! Whatever....you can please some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time. And the new writers, producers & directors have done the best ever yet. So in no way do I want to give negativity to that achievement. All in all, I'd rather see it at all, even if boring, drag-down Martha is there.Hwyl fawr!

  • Tennat and Morisey hugging, I half want him to be the next Doctor becaue it would be a really interesting way of introducing him.

  • They said David Tennant's leaving Doctor Who..

    NNNOOOOO!!! He's like the best Doctor there is!

    I really thin the new one's shit!

  • if they had chosen david morrisey as the next doctor, they would have thought through that he would have recognised his previous incarnation!

  • that cyberman at 00:17 is called a cybershade

  • I am completely FED UP of the Cybermen! Seriously, they are good mosters, but it seems like they HAVE to come back every series finale at least, like there are no other possibilities. Russel T Davies is a brilliant writer, surely he shouldn't have to continually resort to the same tricks!

  • i thought the same way until i saw the dr fightng a cyberman with a sword and swinging away from an exploding platform lol. im tired of the cybermen to but all the same this episode still looks great.

  • Christmas,2 Doctors,Cybermen!cant wait,LOVE doctor who!

  • If they make Piper a new female doctor! im not watching it anymore!! Rose was a bloody annoying miss know it all!! keep Billie away from Doctor who!!!! please

  • Completely agree. I was sick and tired of her by the time she came back for season 4!!!

  • Yeah! I just felt they kept hyper her all the time!! I found it annoying how there was this Rose is better than all the doctors sidekicks who came after!! I personally liked Martha and Donna! down to earth! and not got an answer for everything!! :)

  • My feelings excatly!!!

    Thing is... I actually like Rose until I met Martha and then when I met Donna for the second time BAM!!! she's the one to beat as far as I'm concerned!

  • Donna is one of the best! she reminds me of Sarah Jane in a way! being the character we can relate to! down to earth :)

  • As the Doctor would put it : "Oh Yes!!"

    Can't wait to see Catherine Tate do more drama's rather than just comedy!

    Can't wait til Thursday!!!

  • Tell you what i so hope David ,David Walliams is not the new Doctor. The bookies, have him down quite high, i can't stand him.

  • Oh GOd!! Yes!! It would be horrible!!!

    Patterson Joseph is quite high up aswell to be the next Doctor. (The First Black Doctor!!)

  • Yeah i heard about that lol that will be interesting

  • looks like any old doctor who 2 me

  • OMG

    i cannot wait for this

    looks so good

  • Perhaps he's a young version of the first Doctor.

    The first one ever was an old man, so it's possible.

  • dont you think the 10th doctor would realise lol

  • Actually the first doctor first meet the cybermen before he regenerated in to the first doctor and plus if it was the first doctor, the other doctor will have known who he was!

    My head hurts :(

  • It's obvious that this is an alternate universe, that's where these versions of the Cybermen came from so this other Doctor will be an alternate Doctor - that's why he didn't recognise Tennant? That's my view anyway.

  • I reckon the other david guy is an actor who is acting out stories that were turned into plays about the doctor and they were rehearsing or summin like that hopefully

  • lol

  • why does the audio preview sound like gerbals having a good time

  • the trailer / story line for the xmas day looks fab , and im looking forward to watching it with my kids , i agree with the comment about being to many story lines based on the cybermen , bring back general staal & the sontarons , maybe they will be in one of the specails one offs the bbc have planned before tentant leaves.

  • my "KISS MY FEET BUMHEAD comment was accidental, i was messing with the audio preview lolz

  • KISS MY FEET BUMHEAD

  • The cyberleader would look better without his brain showing in my opinion. The brain just looks fake and therefore makes it look a bit less scary.

  • the guy with the brain is the CyberKing, which is a awesome name if you ask me

  • no thats the cyberleader, the CyberKing is compeltely CGI according to DWM. A big big suprise.

  • the one with the brain is the Cyber Controller

  • Cyber King actually

  • CyberKing but easy mistake. Old Cyber Leaders had black helmets and in the comic had blacked out faces as well. Still looks cool tho.

  • Don't judge David Morrisey on a few short trailer clips and the Children In Need clip. I'm sure we're going to see some very emotional parts etc. while we find out about him. It's doubtful he's the next Doctor, but it could always leave the window open for him to be the one after if people like him enough. I reckon he is a future Doctor but something has happened in 10s future which has really affected him and made him lose his memory - causing him not to know who 10 is.

  • Meh.... looks good but they have milked the cybermen sooo much....

  • Three stories is 'so much'? I guess two of them were two-parters, but still, it's not overexposure by any defintion.

  • OMG< DOCTOR SWINGING ON A ROPE!!!!!!!

  • have you ever seen the doctor swing on a rope? cool!

  • i read in the tv guide that a cyberking is in it

  • AWESOME!!!

  • Sumthin called a 'Cybershade'

  • the cyberman with the black face and the brain is maybe the cyberleader?...

  • i herd that cyberman with black handles and his brain showing can do stuff that odereny cybermen cant like jump walls WOW

  • I know Doctor Who isn't a show that dwells on continuity, but wouldn't Morrisey's doctor, recognise Tennants Doctoe, if he really is a future incarnation.

  • But we don't know he is yet do we?

    Anyway, I'm sure they will have thought of that.

  • could b some loony old nut hu thinks hes the doctor lol

  • lol yer. glad im not the only person looking forward too christmas lol!

  • lol

  • mabey the doctor(morrisey) could have amnesa and thats and thnk hees th first doctor like the 8th doctor did but morrisey might remember who he is but that he has servived this long with out regenerating

  • he's a con man

  • Davies has actually ruled that out, he could be lieing I grant you but I doubt it.

  • or this is just of the top of my head he might be the parrell earth doctor and does'nt no there another univerce so he dosent know

  • wow...this looks so cool...but they should've introduced a new monster for this christmas invasion. i'm still gonna watch it though. can't wait. merry christmas for next week guys!

  • oh yeh its next week lol. makes me even more excited. all this w8in better pay off lol

  • I dont think David Morriseys doctor is a different doctor from a parallel earth where did the cybermen come from.
