Of course she's different, and her motivation appeals to me a lot more, but she's in the same vein as Simm's Master. People act like she's the second coming of Delgado, but she does just as much wacky stuff as Simm too.

>>81358065
I agree she's better acted and better written, but there's nothing wrong with Simm's acting. He pulls off what RTD wanted really well.

I'm not saying Simm's Master is better than Gomez's, he's not, but I just don't really understand how somebody can absolutely hate Simm's portrayal but love hers.

He has no possible chance of being of interest with that characterisation, and if he didn't have that one, why even bring him back? In any case, he's a bland guy. He's like a Coldplay record, like someone said the other night. I don't want him in my Who.

>>81358595
Yeah, but it's funny wacky stuff. Delgado was shit anyway. Old, smug and posh doesn't = chilling or interesting.

Simm is a talentless cunt.

HAHAHAHAHA THAT BOLLOCKS

The guy is tainted. It would be like getting Gordon Tipple back, or the guy who played Toberman. Some things you just try to live down, and the Marvel-universe-style hoodie Master is one of them.

I love that people think he'll be better written by Moffat as if we'd all forgotten that Moffat can no longer write.

i must have missed the thread where everybody flipped the fuck out over this

i had already hyped myself up over the rumours i cant believe it's actually real fucking hell, this is going to be SHEEP

Is there such a thing as condensed recons of missing stories? I know there were at least a couple on the DVD sets but have fans made more? I refuse to sit through shit audio, subtitles, and photoshopped picture slides.

Can't believe I missed the "IT'S REAL" /who/ thread. Timezones suck. That would've been so much fun, rather than find out the news once the rest of you are all accustomed to it, so now I just have all this hype-energy and no outlet for it

barring doctors themselves and sarah jane, is this the longest gap between two appearances of a recurring character?

>>81359195
You probably also missed someone posting the RT interview where Simm said he wasn't entirely happy with RTD pushing him to go too OTT and thought it might be interesting to do a darker portrayal under someone like Moffat then?

Anyway, there's still plenty of room for more hype, since there's still lots to speculate on.

The trailer should be another hype point, I wonder when that will drop. I've also decided to marathon all of Simm's episodes leading into S10, the only question is when I should do it, since we still don't know which episode he's going to pop up in.

>tfw RTD comes back to write the episodes with Simm's Master

>>81359254
You mean the Simm Master's gap between 2009 and 2017? Not even remotely close. Off the top of my head (assuming you're only counting TV, and not SJA/TW/K9):

>The Five Doctors had various returning characters going as far back as 18 years for Susan.
>Omega had 10 years between his two appearances.
>Davros, K9, and the Brig all appeared on the classic show and then again on the new show without being in the TV movie in between.

New Who historical are shit, they're just comedy gag fests, barely ever serious, and the costume department does fuck all research into the clothing, weapons, armour etc of the era, not to mention the colour blind casting. I dread historical now..

>>81359436
That's pretty funny.

There were live streams last night and the night before (or… adjust that for your timezone) marathoning his episodes, which were pretty fun. A lot more entertaining to watch Utopia/Drums/Last when you know that the memes will get funnier as the quality goes down…

>>81359522
It sucks they always need to have some kind of an alien threat in New Who. I miss the pure historicals from Hartnell and Troughton.

>>81359436
>The trailer should be another hype point, I wonder when that will drop.
If you mean the trailer that includes Simm, he's in the "coming up" trailer after episode 1.

Although I suppose now that the cat's out of the bag and they're already announced his return, they might decide to put him in a trailer 3 that drops over the next 9 days? Who knows.

Oh shit, does that mean he's in episode 2? Or is the coming up trailer cover the rest of the season?

Will we actually see the trailer featuring Simm, or was that just for that first press screening?

>>81359572
I know what you mean there, but it still reads like you're blaming New Who for a decision made by Peter Bryant in 1967, which is pretty funny.

>>81359651
we'll see it, and if everything goes to plan it'll even have the 'close your eyes at the end of the countdown if you don't want to see spoilers' bit
of course that will all be very silly now that the BBC have announced it officially

>>81359651
apparently it's the "coming up" trailer for the rest of the series, airing after episode 1

>>81359650
>does that mean he's in episode 2?
Doubt it, thats the emoji robot one

>>81359651
>Will we actually see the trailer featuring Simm, or was that just for that first press screening?
According to reports from the press screening, we will be seeing the same trailer.

Moffat even said he was going to incorporate the "close your eyes if you don't want to be spoiled" warning (that he did at the screening) into the trailer as aired, although presumably he's not going to do that now.

>>81359650
>Oh shit, does that mean he's in episode 2? Or is the coming up trailer cover the rest of the season?
It sounds like it's kind of a hybrid trailer, like a "next week" followed by a bunch of flashes of the rest of the series. But that's 90% speculation and 10% interpreting vague comments on Twitter, so take it with a few kilos of salt.

>>81359661
Yeah I worded that poorly. At least Big Finish are still doing proper historicals so I can get my fix.

Fuck. I still can't believe Simm's coming back. For years I've been saying how I wish he had had more episodes, and before this I was already hype about S10 and thinking it looked really good.

Never expected this from Moffat.

>>81359618
So basically according to that, it's just a coincidence that everything he says he's not going to do is what RTD did with his last Christmas special

Anyone have those shit quality filming pictures of the finale? The one with the guy (probably Simm) next to Missy

>>81359661
That anon isn't blaming them, but I will. They can take and leave whatever they like of the classic template, there's no reason we can't have historicals.

>>81359737
>Never expected this from Moffat.
Neither did I. Did anyone here expect to see Simm back in S10?

>>81359726
Nah, it was worded fine. It can be read the way I did, but you have to twist it around a bit, which my brain only did because it still needs caffeine.

Anyway, yeah, I love that BF made historicals work for at least Doctors 5-7.

And it's a shame that the lesson everyone took from Black Orchid was "We should never try a pure historical again" rather than "If we do a pure historical it shouldn't be made up entirely out of historical stereotypes, and maybe there should be a plot".

>>81359522
I seriously don't think that children are smart enough for that anymore.

>>81359754
Of course not, but Moffat is discredited at this point by years of hacky shit and every minute of the arse that is Sherlock.

>>81359798
Black Orchid is superb and lovely. The characters are less stereotyped than most of the ones in sixties historicals, and it has got a plot.

>>81359812
Children will be smart enough if they aren't pandered to. The problem is, too many of their parents are thick peasants who need to be whipped in the mouth.

Simms announcement is now the second most liked post by DW offical on fb with almost 80 thousand likes, just behind River song by 20 thousand.

>>81359856
I don't think there's any turning back since television is only a legacy format and YouTube is the primary source of content

>>81359890
That's pretty promising.

>>81359773
>>81359726
>>81359798
I wonder why they never did any more no-alien-monster stories set in the present or near future after Enemy of the World?

I guess you could sort of count Mind of Evil, because it really doesn't matter that the Avengers/Bond villain is an alien or that his spy-fi gadget is really another alien.

They will show a promo vid or pic for Simm today.

This also creates a gap in Simm's history for the EU to exploit. Previously there wasn't much wiggle room.

Not that that's super exciting, but it's still interesting.

>>81360057
At 3pm?

>>81359890
Moffat is trying to save the show from potential failure by bringing the normies back. He knows Chibnall's gonna ruin everything so he's trying to help him as much as he can to keep the show afloat, even after he's left. Moff is the hero we deserve

>>81359890
How can you see most popular posts?

They might aswell just bring back tennant and simm permanently. Because they are all the majority of audiences want. It's literally the Simm/Tennant show for the majority of ''fans'' and always will be.

>>81360088
Yes, dubs confirm it

Radio Times say Simm's Master looks similar to the one in the end of time, he has bleached hair (simm is gray now) like in the end of time, so it's that Simm, now that Dalton is free, i'd like to see his regeneration.

>>81360143
The Tumblr crowd is NOT the majority of the show's audience.

>>81360187
Of course it's that Simm. And why would you want to see Dalton's regeneration? Things are already complicated enough, surely.

>>81360196
I don't understand why people expect that the 80000 people who click Like buttons on Facebook posts about Doctor Who (much the 8000 people who talk about it on Tumblr, Reddit, GB, /who/, etc.) are in any way representative of the 80 million people who watch the show, or the even the couple million or so who are fans of it.

>>81361643
>Don't get use to seeing him regularly on the show.
Well, obviously. It's Moffat's last season. We probably won't even see Missy anymore. And Simm was never even a regular appearance during the RTD era. That doesn't make his S10 involvement just a "cameo".

So we all magically agree now that the End of Time wasn't the worst episode and that Simm himself wasn't the problem with his master?

Is the Mysterious Silo of Deadly Dread any good? People don't talk about 3's big finish stuff much.

Guys. You've all been overlooking something. What if it's this version >>81358757 of Simm's Master that comes back?

Actually, my first bet would be in 7 and 8, which aren't written by Moff, but he will be exerting his lead-writer-ness over the 3-parter and/or a season arc.

>>81362311

>>81362381
Not if you stuff it down your pants.

>>81362438
To be fair, I think most of us who actually watched 7's first season were well into defensive "I watch it ironically" annoying-uni-student stage. Nobody over 8 but under 17 was still watching.

YOU DID THIS TO ME ALL OF MY LIFE

>>81362477
I watched 7 for the first time when I was 12

>>81362438
I was still reasonably young and didn't know how to critique TV. But even then, I knew that was fucking retarded.

>>81362477
>>81362499
I guess it really wasn't a revered family show at that point. But it does remind me of everything wrong with RTD all boiled and distilled into one lump of embarrassment for everyone involved. At least the stories weren't that bad except for the first one.

>>81362530
I watched 7 for the first time when I was 12 in 2005, I should have added
I knew nothing of the drama going on at the time it aired

>>81362438
Out of curiosity, what would you say is RTD's most embarrassing moment?

Has to be something RTD came up with himself by the way, not just something that happened during his era.

>>81362622
>farting aliens. That's ruining everything. You want to share Doctor Who with your friends and there are fat farting aliens right in the first season.

>>81362622
I have to tell you that it's very difficult to decide. Bannakaffalatta is something that I find to be pretty terrible. The blowjob concrete slab was pretty bad too.

>>81362681
Fuck yeah.
Aliens of London/WW3 would have been better if it were Zygons.

I am excited about Simm/Missy team up, but she shitty thing is that's going to be the finale, so that will totally make Cybermen a secondary villains. And that's shame.

I am getting tired of the Moffats Red Herrings.

>>81362712
When was the last time cybermen went secondary villains

>>81362752

but they're just gonna be a robot army for the two Masters

>>81362681
in 3 episodes, no less. That's approx. 24% of the season

Does the Doctor shoot his cum out in shots of incredible distance or does he squirt his cum out like a chinese new year firework display? Do you guys think this varies between incarnations or is he consistent? I would imagine that the body being completely different would affect this.

I wonder how RTD feels about Simm coming back. Tbh, I'd love it if Rusty kept a blog where he reviewed new Doctor Who episodes. Or even just a twitter

>>81363319
Do you think he ever once dreamed of sucking on David's cock while getting blasted from behind by John Barrowman? Like even just once? Or some variation of this?

>>81362752
In Death in Heaven. They were the Missy Puppets who turns out to be the real villain on the story. And that made Cybermen just some random faceless henchmen.

>>81363268
Isn't it a loose 3 parter? Like 3 episodes that are loosely connected. or is it a straight up 3 part?

I've had a whole year to tune myself into the psychic network and INTEGRATE WITH ITS MATRICES

>>81363497
Not sure yet. But it sounds like a three parter. The Truth is in every episode of those three.

I want to watch Life on Mars again now.

Will 12 get a good title sequence this year? The tardis looks like total shit in the current one. The whole thing looks cheap as fuck.

Wait, what? I've never heard about this.

What if Simm is in the Sarah Dollard episode, and it's about him seeing the light, becoming genderfluid, and fighting the patriarchy?

>>81363839
OMG I would dildo my ass to an episode like that! XD

>Moffat said the budget for the 50th was awful.

Holograms? Why would holograms be more expensive than what they did? You mean the 13 Doctors in the final shot?

>>81363896
I guess he wanted 3D renders or something? More work for the people who cut the classic doctors out of footage? Who knows

>>81363928
RTD's not coming back, anon. Chibnall is the new showrunner

I'M SO HUNGRY

>>81363772
Whattt. Thats the best fanfilm going

Is McCoy generally just a shit actor when it comes to playing the doctor outside of the show? He sounds pretty unconvincing in the audios and in the live action Ian Levine shit.

So people are excited because we will see Moffat handling something from the RTD era.

What one thing from Moffat's era would you like to see RTD handle?

>>81364429
>What one thing from Moffat's era would you like to see RTD handle?

Having less episodes per series. Because RTD was shit.

>>81364455
But Moffat has the same number of episodes per series?

Unless you're talking about the series 7a 7b split

>>81364429
It's hard to even think of anything from the Moffat era desu. Only Angels come to mind, and they started in RTD's era anyway

>>81364429
The black dude that single handedly fucked up series 8 by buzz killinging it every other episode. I think RTD would have done something better. But that's not really the same as what you asked.

>>81364476
Nah, the most recent series have only 12 episodes, whereas RTD had 13. Of course in an ideal world RTD would have had 0 but w/e

>>81364429
>What one thing from Moffat's era would you like to see RTD handle?
The Paternoster Gang

>>81364455
>What one thing from Moffat's era would you like to see RTD handle?
I would've liked to have seen RTD's take on more Time War stuff. I bet all the money in the world that he would've cast McGann.

>>81364500
I believe his name was Danny Splink. I agree, Moffat can't do normal relationships like RTD could

>>81364455
>What one thing from Moffat's era would you like to see RTD handle?
Gallifrey's return.

And the Pink/Oswald characters and relationship. That was a clusterfuck.

It's sad that we never got to see an RTD episode in Moffat's era. I can't imagine dedicating so much of your life to a project and then just never touching it again. I wonder if this Christmas special will be Moffat's last ever episode too.

>>81364593
I'm surprised they didn't co-write the 50th.

>>81364565
Right, I'm out. What is your obsession with criticising RTD fans? What have we ever done to you? See, if 4chan had something like downvotes this wouldn't be an issue. Instead you get a bunch of introverted losers harassing each other and parroting stupid memes, day in day out. Why did I ever bother coming here? Only one week in and I've already had enough.

>>81364593
There's plenty of those, just watch any Moffat episode written during RTD's era :^)

We kind of did. he wrote the 11th Doctor in the Sarah Jane Adventures episode.

Not a Redditor but I kinda agree with him. I'm a bit disappointed that there's no way to show you like/dislike a post without replying. It just leads to shitposts, like what all these anti-RTD trolls are doing. If their posts were filtered to the bottom of thread by some kind of 'downvote' system we wouldn't have to deal with them. That'd be pretty neato.

>>81364631
RTD barely touched any Moffat scripts.

Tbf that guy was one of the worst actors to be on Doctor Who. Moffat cast him though I guess so it's still his fault.

>>81362477
But it's superb.

The thing is, Doctor Who stayed intelligent while the British people, over the course of the eighties, began their transformation into dog-fuckers. It's a child of the post-war consensus.

I have no desire to tune into the psychic network or enter your place of residence.

Buds, I was just having a shower and naturally my mind wandered to John Simm. Isn't the fact that they managed to keep this a secret during filming a really bad sign? If Simm was in an entire episode, or multiple episodes, surely it would've leaked a long time ago.

But on the other hand, why would they announce him as "returning" if it's just a small role?
