Do you know like we were saying about the BBC being shit? It's like when you were a kid. The first time they tell you the licence fee is good and you just can't quite believe it because every channel looks like it's better. I can feel it. The pulling of the licence fee. The British Broadcasting Corporation is losing it's primary source of revenue, and the entire commercial television sector is primed to overtake it on every level, and I can feel it. We're losing the money, you and me, clinging to the purse of some dementia-ridden old dear, and if we let go. That's what's happening. Now, forget me, /who/ general. Go home.
this page has an entire category dedicated to doctor who audio, here you will find all the BF tenth doctor audios and BBC radio too, you must be new to the audios.
Ryan Davis
I talking about the license fee.
Sebastian Sullivan
Fanks, m8 >you must be new to the audios. Oh no, I'm actually trying to get back into them. I used to be a tripfag here back during Smith/Capaldi. I've been away for a long time, so I thought there might have been some special new site or pastebin someplace. Figured I'd ask.
David Torres
Oh. No idea then. Probably not.
Xavier Nelson
They already have. How it works is the BBC get a royal charter for 10 years, which allows them to operate the licence fee. The government has said they won't renew it, so when this one is up in 7 years it's gone for good.
They couldn't get rid of it now because the only way to revoke a royal charter before its tims is if they were acting illegally, and while what Chibnall's doing IS criminally bad it isn't illegal.
Only way it could get renewed is if a moderate wing of the party comes to power before 2027 (highly unlikely) or labour win an election (even more unlikely)
Carson Robinson
What said They can still hurt BBC really hard though if they go ahead and decriminalize non-payment.
Cooper Kelly
This. They cast Tennant as the next Doctor without even asking him if he wanted to renew his contract. He only learned of it when Tennant got announced.
Xavier Hall
Who's ready for pic related coming next month? Worst case scenario: it's the last time we hear about Susan ever. Best Case scenario: it's implied Susan regenerates but it's extremely vague just in case anybody wants to bring her back as a surprise on some other medium.
I don't like how the first doctor has been the one that's Ok to recast. Then again it would've been a missed oppurtunity not use David Bradely after he played Hartnell in the special. shame the way he was written though.
Jace Davis
he is doing a great job as the 1st doctor on Big Finish
Easton James
I read here the novelization retconns it to the First Doctor pretending to be like that to embarass twelve with Bill
Leo Hernandez
as a fan of one I should be glad he's got a second breathe of life. in my old head canon I thought the regeneration was making him high or something.
Leo Martin
>Episode 3 of The Web of Fear was originally among the discovered episodes, but went missing in the months between the discovery of the films and their return to the BBC How does this happen in the year of our lord 2013?
I wonder what his "surprise extra material will be". 5 bucks. Right now. I'm betting it's Barrowman.
Henry Turner
nah. it'll be something like the Strax thing yesterday
Hudson Young
based batty-bwoi Hope I don't die though
Robert Lopez
It's just that Russel doesn't have a Strax to do something like that. What's his funny lil alien character than can be easily done with a plushie? An Ood?
I could totally see him getting Barrowman to shoot a 2 minute video. Especially since he has more time to make his intro.
Landon Brooks
What if its Eccleston?
Nolan Bell
be fun if it's an action figure of John Hurt and RTD writes new dialogue for him
Liam Rodriguez
Would Eccleston ever consider returning to Dr Who?
He got sick of the constant sexual harassment from RTD.
Juan James
I was about to post that. But I dunno if their relationship ended on good terms.
There's also going to be an 11th Hour rewatch in April so it confirms we're rewatching every showrunner premiere. Bros can you imagine the Woman Who Fell to Earth rewatch? Chibnall's unfunny intro, no one watching, barely anyone talking about it, it'll be amazing
Easton Sanders
can you blame him?
Thomas Wood
Doubtful. He's a temperamental artsy type, and I think he's still too butthurt about it all. I'm sure he could easily negotiate something with Big Finish, to have some creative control, and only work with directors he chooses, but I think he's just washed his hands of the role at this point.
Is there any expectation that First and Second Doctor box-sets are coming in 'The Collection' with some sort of fill-in for missing eps?
Bentley Brooks
I'm interested where you guys are from? I'm English and have only seen the Eccleston to Tennant seasons.
Aiden Gonzalez
>13 regenerates into a white male >RTD returns as showrunner, with Moffat doing side episodes (as God intended) >Capaldi returns but as the valeyard in a twoparter any other wishlist items you guys have?
Watched Asylum of the Daleks last night. Holy fuck, Oswin is goddamn adorable. I'd rather have had her as a companion than Clara. don't even care that she's a Dalek.
