Yay! This means I am one step closer to watching more new Dr. Who. I have the last couple specials, but I haven’t watched them yet because I kind of wanted to watch them closer together. I’ll probably watch these before the Christmas special though. I doubt I’ll be able to wait any longer.
Other than a few prophecies, the other specials have absolutely no connection to the upcoming specials. I would go ahead and watch them now. In fact, I think these new ones are going to be a lot better, so I think it would make the overall experience better if you watched the older ones first. The last one was pretty good, IMO, but it’s still a stand alone. This next one is technically a standalone, but should lead into the last two pretty well.
I knew that the specials were pretty much standalones. I was waiting more for the reason of having a bunch of Dr Who to watch at once.
I can’t wait, i just started watching Doctor Who like 3 weeks ago and i’ve already caught up and ran out of episodes lol.
Well if you ran through all 4 seasons then get yourself a copy of the two seasons and the 5 part special of Torchwood. It will at least give you something to watch for hte next two weeks
When will it be on BBC-A ( the US BBC)
Not sure, the torrent fairy delivered it to me.
I really enjoyed it. At the beginning I wasn’t enjoying it that much, but it really picked up and damn, the last 20 or so minutes were great.
It was one of those eerie episodes.
So I guess there’s a Xmas episode coming up. Good times.
If I remember right, it air on december 19 in the states
