We want YOU in the next Doctor Who "Best of" Special!

[pinklavigne231]

"Would you rather ride with Santa in his sleigh or the Doctor in his TARDIS?"

...

Are you stupid?

...

Seriously, did you get brain damage when you were a child?

[smilingflower123]

wow. sorry if you got chosen, but there were about a hundred better videos than the ones shown yesterday. i'm kind of disappointed. some people put a lot of effort into their videos and weren't on the show, while others didn't do much and were on (I'm not saying everyone). I'm still happy that I was part of it though :) The christmas episode was good!

[smilingflower123]

it's the 25th already, i can't wait till the special, but I still don't know who won!!!

[TheaterShark4524]

so it's a suprise who in and who is out ... yes???

[TheaterShark4524]

@TheaterShark4524 *who is in

[vincentkosmos]

@BBCAmericaTV It will be a "surprise" or we will know who is "in" and who is "out"? :))

[clubpenguinxd]

Darn it!!! how did i miss this???

[ManservantPablo]

How do we know if we got on the show? I don't get BBC America here!

[1701Ares]

Space will air ir it at 8:00 on Dec 25th, followed by the "The Doctor, the Widow, and the Wardrobe" at 9:00. (Set you recorders for 8:00-10:30pm)

[kimmorin141]

@1701Ares omg THANK YOU!!

[1701Ares]

@kimmorin141 You're Welcome. Just a few days to see if we made it.

[OwlCityFan26]

WTF? WHO WOULD RATHER RIDE WITH SANTA IF YOU HAD A CHANCE TO GO IN THE TARDIS??????

[Smallvillenerd]

wow the Americans are really into Dr Who now

[kimmorin141]

@Smallvillenerd OI!  I am CANADIAN thank you very much :P

[jenn13Gabriel]

Do we know when the winner(s) will be announced? (Also mine still isn't showing up on the list...)

[josephaulde]

the progress on this contest is quite slow, is anyone really watching these videos...why are there now only 218 when there had been 219? Why are the numbers getting smaller?

Getting worried here...don't expect to win anything but would like to see that my video made it there on time and is being seen by the other entries at least. I realize you guys have to screen for inappropriate material but this is really dragging on. Alonzy!

[thoughtumentary]

I submitted my video last week but It hasn't shown up yet. I submitted it the day before it was due..

[jenn13Gabriel]

@thoughtumentary mine too...

[johnnyp997]

@1701Ares I'm pretty sure it's airing after the new doctor who on Christmas day

[1701Ares]

When will the BEST OF special air?

[Animefreak80]

I uploaded my video and marked it as a response. But, it is not on the list.

[BigTabby33]

Some videos have the caption, "This is a video response to `We want YOU in the next Doctor who Best of Special", while others -- including mine -- don't have the caption. I'm pretty certain I did the steps correctly in making a video response to this video, but would love some confirmation that BBC America can see them and regard them as valid responses. Anyone, please? :)

[rockerseven]

@BigTabby33 im pretty sure the ones that have "This is a video response to..." were done by doing a direct response, where you record your response and it posts it right away...as opposed to the others which were recorded, and uploaded seperately

[CultOfInfo]

i sent my video response over a week ago and i still havent seen it in the video response i know there are a lot of video's to see but i tryed sending it again and it let me do it again so did it go throw the first time?

[johnnyp997]

When will the winner be announced???

[LittleYellowAssassin]

Can't believe I forgot the due date was the 23rd! I even had some cool props chosen to make the response video :( Hopefully they'll do this again next year!

[BroadwayOod]

When will the winner be announced? :D

[FilmalityStudios]

Posted my video as a response on the 22nd and now the video says that it wasn't posted as a response? Hope you guys over at BBC America have still received it!

[seapigoinkoink]

FML didn't know about this. I would have made such a fantastic video.

[drstew42]

Quick question, RE our submitted video...the rules posted here on Youtube said nothing regarding the use of music, and we included a short intro/exit edit of the Doctor Who theme...but someone pointed out to us that the rules on the BBC webpage state that 'no music can be used'...we did not know this, can we possibly swap our audio (same we had, just sans the music) if it means we will be disqualified? We hope it's possible to still have it considered, we put a lot of effort in to it...

[kimmorin141]

Hey BBC. So the contest ended Wednesday right? I'm just wondering if you will be announcing the winner on YouTube or saying that a winner was chosen or just reveal it in the special. Also, when would we find out the winner? Thanks :)

[Evilchick101]

Hopefully, BBC got my video. No matter what happens I'm just happy I got a chance to do something awesome with my college friends. Oh, and, good luck to all you Doctor Who fans! :D

[nowiAMhydrogen]

So, it's almost midnight and my computer won't let me select my video as a response. Shame. Though check out my page if you'd like to see it!

[gboldin]

Had some fun with my four year old answering some of the questions. We are both Doctor Who fans.

[aLUSHworld]

I hope you guys will still accept my video, I sent it at 11:39 my time on November 23rd. Hopefully it's still valid! I'm crossing my fingers! :)

[bbsincere]

That sucks couldn't let me post my video :(

[tomoyoyea]

@bbsincere me too /:

[bondservant4jesus]

Oh I hope they got my video. I think I sent it a few times. I think I should stop so that they won't get annoyed, hehe.

[1upupandaway1]

So, could have I sent mine in today (November 23rd) and have it still be okay? I mean, it didn't say anything about it not being allowed in today, it just said "by November 23rd." In my book that means before or on the day of....

Please answer this!

[bondservant4jesus]

I just noticed that in the rules it says not to have any music. Some of you I heard music on your videos. They might be disqualified. If you can make quick remake you may want to try.

[bondservant4jesus]

Why can't I show my response. It won't let me link to my video when I try respond.

[bondservant4jesus]

I figured it out. Thanks. :)

[yours4everXOXO]

posted ours <3

[1upupandaway1]

I sent mine in before the 23rd but it was at 11:30pm on November 22nd my time!! is that too late? does mine still count?

[yours4everXOXO]

@1upupandaway1 not sure! i hope it counts! we ust posted ours and its the 23rd my time... hope so

[CultOfInfo]

/watch?v=G1LHqwPPFSA

[CultOfInfo]

i'm still not in the responses and i uploaded 2 days ago ????

[LePoissonDAvril]

@CultOfInfo It seems to have happened to quite a few people, including me - hope it works!

[artguy42]

Might I ask when the winners will be announced?

[emiblake]

I just uploaded mine - I hope it's not too late... my Toclafane and I have a theory about the Doctor's other title.

[tantelized]

"Funny how you can say something in your head and it *sounds* fine..."

...should be the tag line of my video response, haha

[BabyHermioneCat]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't let me be too late. I had such a horrible time trying to get this posted and i finally got it. Who would've thought it was just a matter of being in the wrong browser.

[patrick8563]

okay - posted - SANTA OR DR WHO - at patrick8563.

[BabyHermioneCat]

watch?v=kIWaaFyfqrY

[BabyHermioneCat]

OMG How do i video respond!!!!!O_o

[SilverGoldfish4049]

Just submitted my video response! Kind of nerve-wracking!

[BabyHermioneCat]

Please say by midnight tomorrow... I just found out about this today and i really really want to do it

[tantelized]

hello :) I was wondering if the videos must be posted by midnight tonight or by midnight of the 23rd, could you clarify this for me please? Thank you!

[imtildie]

Posted my video response yesterday and I'm not seeing it! Wondering why I'm not able to see it??? Has it been approved, or posted, and I just can't see it, yet?

[oscardog2001]

I'm looking for the special/documentary that aired when the 6th series ended but cant find it anywhere not even on BBCamerica's website anyone know where to find it

[RingoRosalee123]

Where do I post my video response?

[KunoichiRaiu]

I'm not sure if my video was received, but I figure that it's just not posted on this channel yet due to the massive amount of videos you guys are receiving...but should I submit a second time to be sure? I don't want to contribute to the repeated onslaught of second responses.

[LePoissonDAvril]

@KunoichiRaiu Same problem here - starting to worry whether the one I submitted about 6 hours ago actually submitted properly because it's the 23rd now (the deadline for submissions) but I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

[cowboybear40]

Just uploaded my response, hope i get picked even thought it's not as clever as some of the ones I've seen especially StopitsGingertime! Been a long time fan of the Doctor's since way back in 1982 when I watched Tom Baker's first story"Robot", since then I've been hooked.

[NerdAlert303]

Same concern as 333TARDIS, video posted on channel and I posted it as a response on this vid but I'm not seeing it and this was done the other day. Just making sure I don't miss the cut off

[BBCAmericaTV]

@NerdAlert303 No worries. Even if you don't see it on channel, we see it over here at BBCA. It'll be on the channel soon!

[333TARDIS]

My video uploaded to my channel but I am not sure it posted here !!??

[RyanOReganComedy]

Woohoo! Response #206 i'm tech. the "The Age of Steel" of responses lol

[dvderin]

Thanks @BlueGnoll

Cheers,

Erin

[NiwotHSMedia]

I believe that all the videos are checked first by the BBC America interns who do not work weekends and holidays, nor should they (they aren't wage slaves or Xmas elves). I would advise patience. They'll show up soon.

[RyanOReganComedy]

Everyone, considering there seems to be No correspondence from BBC America to anyone, I can only imagine that everyone's videos (including my own) were uploaded successfully, and there just isn't anyone at the helm of the TARDIS right now checking it all (we all know what happens then!)...but I'm sure someone will be checking everyone's responses shortly so i'd say be calm and have faith (unless you're afraid some minotaur is gonna eat you for doing so).

[BBCAmericaTV]

@RyanOReganComedy We're here. We're just busy watching videos kind of non-stop the last week. :-p

[RyanOReganComedy]

@BBCAmericaTV oh i really had no doubt of it, just doing my part to help quell the masses before ppl started getting antsy. (Time) Lord knows what a bunch of upset, enraged Whovians could look like...i shutter and yet smile at the thought haha

[CultOfInfo]

just posted it as a video response hope you like and more so hope you got it lol not sure if i did it right not even the sonic can get me out of this one

[treinman]

I just posted! I hope you all like it! -- Tim (@TReinman)

[BlueGnoll]

@ Wolfburge, smilingflower, Kakureen, dvderin etc etc... lots of people had the same question last week. Come Monday afternoon, you'll see your videos on the list! "Geronimo!!"

[wolburge]

If our video isn't in the responses yet its not a bad thing right? cuz mine hasnt shown up yet.

[CultOfInfo]

@wolburge mine too what dose it mean is it processing still?

[smilingflower123]

i'm so excited! I just posted my video! It's still not in the responses, but i really hope it will be soon.

[Kakureen]

how do i know when my vid is on the list i dont see it with the others

[dvderin]

How do we tell if our video response got posted?

[ToriClarkson]

My video hasn't been showing up, and this morning I was able to send it as a response again to be 'approved'. Does this mean it wasn't approved the first time?

[BBCAmericaTV]

@ToriClarkson Nope. It just meant that you were able to submit it twice. We've got it! :D

[ringbing2]

my video hasn't shown up either

[omfguatemymuffin]

My video won't show up :(

[meltedtwix1]

i could find out what my presents were and lock my door with no lock but a time and relative dimension in style (t.a.r.d.i.s.) under my tree that could come in handy...........how bout one each year

[alpacamybooks]

Do we have to answer just one question or can we answer all of them?

[lildarkangel3001]

If we make our video responses unlisted, can you still get to them since it's a video response?

[betatester117]

[SingingKid2011]

[WillLOVESKaren]

Deadline for visa is both Karen Gillan's 24th b'day and Doctor Who's 48th

[glitterglove1]

Just submitted my video, but don't see mine on the list. Just want to make sure I did it correctly.

[gabeberry24]

@BBCAmericaTV should we say where we are from?

[MuppetsRfUN]

Okay, do we upload them here or to the Ginger video? I don't want to miss out because I posted it in the wrong place :(

[BBCAmericaTV]

@MuppetsRfUN They're both on our channel so we'll see it either way!

[CoolCartoonsGuy]

lol the deadline is Doctor Who's 48th Birthday

[snake1million]

@CoolCartoonsGuy Ahhh the irony... hehe ;) x

[Lmaokid1]

were we supposed to say our names because i didnt in the video. is that not going to get me picked? i hope not....

[BBCAmericaTV]

@Lmaokid1 No worries. You don't *have* to say your name!

[DrJacobean]

1. Snow angels with an Ood 2. Doctor in his Tardis 3. One of the silence, then at least I'd live and I wouldn't remember kissing them 4. Traveling with The Doctor 5. Traditional meal 6. The Doctor land in my yard 7. A Tardis under my tree because it can make a screwdriver for me :P

[BBCAmericaTV]

@DrJacobean Ok. This is good to know... but make a video! :D

[DrJacobean]

@BBCAmericaTV I did :D

[historynerdbailey]

my video is sti ot in the responses bleh

[ChristyABell]

HEY GUYS! BBCAMERICA HAS TO WATCH AND THEN APPROVE YOUR VIDEO. Give them some time because there are a LOT of submissions. They WILL get to yours! They just have to check the video to make sure you didn't post something you weren't supposed to. Hope that helps. Expect 1-2 days for approval and also depending on your timezones. Cheers xoxo (thumbs up so people can see maybe?)

[MerileeGoLucky]

Question: I uploaded a video a couple of days ago as a response, but it's not listed as a response yet. Are y'all having to approve all the videos first? Thanks :)

[BBCAmericaTV]

@MerileeGoLucky yep.

[BBCAmericaTV]

@MerileeGoLucky You're in there!

[historynerdbailey]

posted my video :) i hope i get chosen, i saw that some girls posted a video response to every question so if they get picked thats so not fair hahaha

[nirom123]

what if we live 3 minutes away from the USA?



[LilTFerg]

@ihappentofly Thanks! I hope all of ours get posted tomorrow...I love watching them ^_^

[1701Ares]

If that's the case they will have a busy day tomorrow.

[NiwotHSMedia]

I posted mine yesterday afternoon and it's not showing yet. I'm thinking that the BBC America interns who have to check the videos don't work

 weekends.

[1701Ares]

There will be a BBCAmerica Special, like the BEST OF's that aired last summer.

Your video answer could make the show.

[MegDWKG]

What do you win exactly. When you say you want the winner to be in the show od the best of the doctor who christmas specials, waht is this exactly?

[1701Ares]

Any idea how long it takes for a video to show up in responses?

[Garyprater2]

I put my video up yesterday around 10 pm and it's still not on here. Idk

[captainsquirrelify]

Mine's up! Just not approved yet I don't think...it's rather long...I had a bit too much fun whilist making it I think lol

[LilTFerg]

Well, I added my video response, but I don't see it posted...hope I did it right.

[ihappentofly]

@LilTFerg Same... You're not alone. I think they have to approve it, or something.

[BBCAmericaTV]

@LilTFerg It's there!

[1upupandaway1]

I thought that we actually got to be ON Doctor Who...not just have our video shown...this is disappointing now...

[1701Ares]

@1upupandaway1 Your video will be shown on the Special. So you will be part of Doctor Who.

[bubbafishy]

What if you don't have a camera? Can you answer it from comment? answer soon please, i want to enter!

[ChristyABell]

@bubbafishy you have time to borrow one. Lots of smart phones have video cameras and your friends probably have webcams. Because this is a special on TV, I really doubt they're going to chose any text comments. It even says film your response.

[BBCAmericaTV]

@ChristyABell thx for answering this.

[rockjdbama]

Doctor Who Fans, after I posted my response and started looking through yalls, and highly enjoy them... The problem is I just remembered some things about the weeping angles that put me in a curve ball. If I remember correctly the weeping angels send you back in time, not necessarily kills ya... tough mistletoe experience cause you cant watch Doctor Who any more

[Skyyzander]

I posted a video response but I don't see it anywhere on the list :/

[rockjdbama]

@Skyyzander: From the past posts my understanding is that it must be approved by BBCAmerica before being attached. What I am doing is in the top corner you see your email, make sure it posted on the website first. Then after a couple days revisit and see if it attached. WARNO: Needs to be on here by the 23rd, so good luck

[Skyyzander]

@rockjdbama Thanks so much!

[SmavasVlog]

Oh hi. So my friend and I were wondering if you could have two people in one video, because it would be super awesome if we could both be on it. So ya... Thanks :)

[BBCAmericaTV]

@SmavasVlog Have seven!

[jkbogart]

My vid was fine when it uploaded, but now the audio and video aren't matching up!?!?! Kerg!!

[BBCAmericaTV]

@jkbogart Want to try reuploading?

[halfnoteclementines]

@BBCAmericaTV Vanx(thanx) XD

[ZeppelinDust]

I'd rather be with one of the weeping angels under the mistletoe- everyone always stares at people under the mistletoe so I would be in little to no danger!

[diamondolphi]

Sleighing with a dalek, riding with the doctor (D'uh!), Weeping angels are cooler than the silence, and again, i'd so rather travel with the doctor (than anything else). Fish fingers and custard are great (I tried it) and of course the doctor beats santa every time. A screwdriver would be awesome, but a TARDIS can go ANYWHERE!

I don't have a camera to make a video, so poor, so sad.

[IamTheDRHorrible]

I have some questions :

-Should we be an American / live in America?

-Is there any age limits?

-When is the Due time?

Thank you :)

[smilingflower123]

@IamTheDRHorrible you don't have to be american, and the due date is november 23rd (it's in the video description)

[BBCAmericaTV]

@IamTheDRHorrible Read the description. It's all in there.

[ChristyABell]

@IamTheDRHorrible Nope! Noooooooope and Nov 23 like it says in the description :) Answers to all these questions have already been answered in the comment section. Be sure to check em out.

[JizztasticJazz]

@IamTheDRHorrible

-It's going to be shown across America, but you don't have to live in the United States.

-There's no age limits. You just need permission from your parents/guardians

-It's due by Wednesday, November 23rd. 

[smilingflower123]

Please bbc, if we happened to win, would any personal info be revealed on tv/youtube? (ex. Name, where we live?)

[BBCAmericaTV]

@smilingflower123 We'd probably say your first name + first initial of your last name followed by the city + state you're from.

"Amy P. from Leadworth"

That sort of thing.

[smilingflower123]

@BBCAmericaTV thanks!



[smilingflower123]

@BBCAmericaTV thanks! p.s. i like your example ;)



[huntetrainboy]

I can't see my video am I in there too?

[TheNickLeez]

So just making sure that you know, i have 4 videos in response to this, only 1 came up on the response list. check my channel if you haunt already.thanks!

[girlinthespecks]

lol wish i had seen the "be witty" part before i uploaded! oh well whats done is done :/ my vid doesnt show in the video responses either, maybe its because im signed in?

[smilingflower123]

one more quick question bbca, if we did happen to win, would any personal/private information have to be revealed on tv and/or youtube? (ex. name or where we live?)

[Singalingaling84]

Can someone help me? I made the video response and uploaded at as such, but it isn't showing up in the "video responses" area. How do i know it worked?



[rockerseven]

@Singalingaling84 it still has to be approved by BBCAmerica before it gets posted in the video responses

[Singalingaling84]

@rockerseven oh, i see. Thank you very much!

[rockerseven]

@Singalingaling84 no problem!

[MegAnimefreakx3]

Do we have to answer all of the question or just some of them or one??

[BBCAmericaTV]

@MegAnimefreakx3 Any or all of the above.

[MegAnimefreakx3]

@BBCAmericaTV thx you very much i did the weeoing angel one ;3

[smilingflower123]

Thankyou so much! Canadians can participate! I was so mad when somebody told me we couldn't! Thankyou thankyou thankyou! You guys are the best!
