  • The Cybermen are basically the Dr. Who equivalent of the Borg from Star Trek.  I don't think that the Cybermen pull off being scary/powerful/cool quite as well, though.

  • I have a theory about why cybermen and daleks are less scary or scary in a different way. The Daleks; we have grown up with as a Doctor Who monster and cybermen; are less scary because in a way they are robots and they do what robots do.

    Where as the weeping angels in 'blink' are scary because they shouldn't be animate but are. And its the unexpected that causes the human fright reaction.

  • I think what makes the Cybermen terrifying, is the exact same reason every good Doctor Who monster (like the Daleks especially) is great, is the fact they not only want to remove your emotions, they want you to become like them, a shattered twisted monster and take away everything that makes you human, fantastic, i highly recommend "Spare Parts", a Doctor Who audio featuring the Fifth Doc on Mondas during the genesis of our universes Cybermen

  • I like your hair color. :-)

  • I may be late... I found this on the internet:

    "Yesterday I found an Easter egg (Hidden Feature) on Disc 4 of the Doctor Who Series Three Boxset.

    You can access this by going onto Scene Selection from the menu on Disc four. When on scene selection, go all the way to the episode Blink. After that go up from the scene images to the writing which says Blink then simply click on it. The feature is The Doctor Easter Egg scenes from Blink put together as one whole clip."

  • she said series 4 you reatard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • she probably did say series 4, and I don't feel like watching the clip again. whatever, thanks for pointing that out.

    from the few seconds of watching your only posted youtube video about an ultra violent video game (which was one-starred) and your comment, i am guessing you are an angry little kid. ease on up. don't be so angry. you'll get nowhere in life with that attitude.

    "reatard" - that's funny cause it's misspelled.

  • damn she's pretty hot ;)

  • I lime your hair like that. It look well eh hot. LOL.

  • Random Comment HOOOOOO!!!!: I am so JEALOUS of your Series 4 DVD Box SET!!! I didn't get Rose on mine! I just got the Doctor and Donna. (Then again I'm from the States. Damn myself for not being born somewhere where I can access awesome Rose related merchandise!)

    *sigh* I'm gonna go cry in the corner of my room.

  • I did not find this Christmas special to have any of the charm and sparkle that the voyage of the damned had really it all seamed kind of dark more torchwood like then doctor who, especially with the cybershades they acted in the place of the weevils from my point of veawe

  • I agree they need toget away from earth a bit more. you'd think if u can go anywhere in a tardis you wouldn't go to earth 70% of the time.

  • I agree the Cybermen arent the greatest. My favorite/scariest creatures is a tie between the weeping angels and those time vortex dragon things.

  • They looked like gorillas with Cyberman masks XD

  • I just finished watching the first half. SO far, it's better than I expected. I do have to say that I liked Ecclestens Dr. more, although this one grew one me.

  • Yeah, my biggest problem was that it didn't feel like a Christmas story. It felt more like the Dickens episode, a story that just happened to take place around Christmas.

    I actually liked the cybershades, but mostly because I thought they were hilarious more than anything else. Then again, I've always thought the cybermen were more hilarious villains than scary villains, so the cybershades continued on with that trend.

  • I have nothing good to say about that episode so i won't say anything. :o

  • I enjoyed the Christmas special, but I felt it was underwhelming.

  • I don't care much for the Cybermen either, but I always love/hate the Daleks

  • I hated the Christmas episode. Boring and annoying. I'm sorry but won't apologise. Damn I just did. WHAT WAS IN THE TUBE?

  • I went through the whole episode thinking they were calling cybershades "cybersheep"! I was a bit disappointed when I watched Doctor Who Confidential and they weren't sheep.

  • Wow I really want that box set! How much was it? And awesome video, I liked the episode but I would have liked it better if it was on a larger scale. :D

  • I preferred the older specials but I do love the 'next Doctors' character, the emotion of it all when he re-discovers this past is very moving. Also I love for this one quote:

    "Who the hell is that?!"

    "That, Sir, is The Doctor"

    Good ending too lol.

  • I enjoyed this one, but despite some great special effects and some really good acting, it didn't grab me as awesome! or anything.

    I kinda wish they'd get away from London, it's not the centre of the universe.

    Nice hair colour.

  • I agree with you about the cybermen and the cybershades, they never seem to scare me and the cybershades reminded me of monkeys.

    Also I didnt really like Morrissey much, and im hoping that he wont be the next doctor. Also it felt like there was somthing missing because Ten didnt have an assistant. It was decent though and as you said it did have alot to live up to!

  • The Dickens episode was 4 years ago.

  • Last year was better but a very OK episode.

    <3 the hair

  • I thought it was the worst DW Christmas Special so far. Why:

    - Morrissey's Doctor was over the top.

    - Rosita was unimpressive.

    - The Cybershades were pitiable! Obviously fraudulent.

    - I despised Jackson Lake's child! He/she just stood around with its mouth hanging open! I thought it just looked lost! It didn't seem to react to the fact that its father had returned or the events surrounding it!

    - The whole episode felt rather grounded. Despite the balloon.

    - However, the effects were superb.

  • Haha, I dunno, I enjoyed it. However, I was mostly watching for David M's performance. However, I agree about the Cybershades. Those things were kind of silly.

    I've been meaning to snatch up the series four dvds. You're making me want to spend all of my money on them.

  • The cybershades were sort of dumb. The point of cybermen is to take away the biological elements away, but these things were covered in hair! Meh. Fail.

    The episode overall though was great. I tweeted that Doctor Who is like a drug in that it maces you feel a whole bunch of crazy emotions one after the other.

    I want Jenny to come back!

    I'm SO jealous of your hair color. Don't worry, it looks awesome. :)

  • I do like a bit of Space in my specials. We did get giant robots though. Half win?

    Tough topic: what are you looking for in Eleven? I'm looking for either a Doctor of a different race or a more mature Doctor.

    We need to have a long talk about what to do with your hair next.

  • The Cybershades were the BEST!

    They're the most awesomest Doctor Who monster from the new series.

    How could you hate them?

  • You are joking.

  • ...No.

    What do you think are the best monsters from the new series than? Hmm?

    Why is everyone hating on them anyways? I don't get why people hate them.

  • Because the producers have had no effort put into them whatsoever! Look at them; evidently men in black furry costumes, loping along. They just look silly. Besides, Cybermen are supposed to be the result of the subtraction of all biological features, save the brain; the cybershades are covered in hair.

  • I think they tried to make them look like monsters from the old series.

    Maybe it's not hair. Maybe it's wires... Or something else...

  • love the soundtrack

  • Just finished watching it. Someone uploaded it to YouTube, but it's missing seven minutes in the middle.

    I actually really liked this one. It seemed to be focusing more on the Doctor and Jackson Lake than any particular alien menace. I think the Cybermen were more of a Macguffin here.

    Having someone who thinks he's the Doctor and acting accordingly is absolutely brilliant.

    I can see what you mean by expecting more "space", but I think it's one of my favorite specials.

  • It is ironic that this year we saw "The Next Doctor", and that next year we will see the next doctor.

  • Ahh does anybody know where I can watch this online? It's not on SideReel!!

  • I agree with you alot here and I also really loved how Rosita, was like a mix of all three previous companions.

    I'm off to watch the deleted scenes!

  • That being said, I don't like the Cybermen either. Basically I think they're a cop out--I think it's easy to use old monsters like the Cybermen or the Daleks instead of coming up with something new. They're boring at this point. I want something new, and something more disturbing, frankly. I thought the Cybershades were lame, as well. So, what's different between the special edition box set and the normal version? I only got the normal one for Xmas. Your cover is much cooler.

  • I think, after having something as grand as the Titanic hurtling towards earth, it was necessary to have a smaller, more personal story, because it's impossible to keep making bigger and more epic specials. I liked this one for the exploration of what it means to be the Doctor and lose that identity, as you said, and the line "In the end, I suppose... they break my heart" really broke MY heart. I love seeing his vulnerability. And I liked the humor and the rapport between the characters.

  • I most likely wont see this atleast for another year. I'm in the USA. :P

  • I think it was way better than last years.

  • Nice rhyme "I always loved Catherine Tate. I always thought [that] she was great."

  • I dunno, my favourite xmas special remains 'The UnQuiet Dead.' but I'm a bit weird that way. I didn't get the Series 4 box set for christmas sadly but thankfully the Monday before christmas I went into Dublin to get a load of Who stuff for myself and I got, The Story of Martha, The New Adventures audiobook set, 3 latest TW books, The Forever Trap on CD (so I have the proper Series 4 intro) + Panini comics Storybook 2009, finishing story of M tonite, will prob post review in response to Kayley

  • I kinda agree about wat u say about the cybermen, I think they (along with the daleks)r my least favourite creatures. Idk, I think it's something 2 do with the fact tht they hav no emotions, and thus there is no story accept "let's kill everything!"

    After a while it just get's repetitive and boring and they're just not scary anymore.

    Overall i do think tht Voyage of the Dammed was better, but this years was ok as well- i think you're rite wen u say there wasn't anything tht screamed CHRITMAS

  • Totally agree, it was hard to follow last years special and it seemed to me too go by very quickly. But it was good, and its not Christmas without the special!

  • Yay new TARDIStacular video!

    I really enjoyed this year's Christmas special. IDK why, but I didn't really like the 3rd special with the Titanic that much, and I thought this one was just a nice, fun story... definitely not on the scale of the first two (which I loved!!!), but good nonetheless.

    I really don't like the cybermen as villains either, so I wish that part had been different, but I thought David Tennant and David Morrissey were brilliant. :-D

  • Woo series 4 boxset i got that, i watched the deleted scenes their were good, defo the dr's daughter.

    agree with your views on cybershades

  • Looks like we're off to space next time in "Planet of the Dead" - yay!

  • I think it might be one of thoes things where you have to watch it again in order to fully appreciate it. But I can see what you mean about the Cyber-animal-type-things. It was an interesting concept but yehhh.....scary...not so much! Snap btw I got the boxset aswell! But mines the boring one! Except when I opened it up tickets to see John Barrowman slipped out! Whooo score! :D Great review, can't wait to see your's and Kayley's reactions to the four specials! x

  • In re-reading my comment I feel the need to explain, my parents had placed tickets to see John Barrowman in there! They didn't just magically appear! Although that would be cool! x

  • Your hair looks really nice! It's not brown, but it looks pretty, plus it's just hair, you can re-dye it later....
