That can't be as high as 49, even allowing for Christmas specials and the last regeneration scene, surely?

2 x 13 eps = 26 + next year's series of 14 eps = 40 + crap Christmas special with Katharine Jenkins = 41. Even giving him turning up at the end of Tennant's last one, that's still only 42. Are they counting the mini thing at the Doctor Who prom and the Children in Need special and some other random stuff as well?

I saw that and thought LOL Grauniad.

I still don't get how McCoy got to 69 episodes (or Davison only to 43 for that matter)
― We are Real solid sex doll AKA RSSD (Autumn Almanac), Monday, 13 June 2011 09:36 (twelve years ago) link
Are they counting appearance in the Sarah Jane Adventures as well, maybe?
(doesn't explain McCoy, I know...)
― ailsa, Monday, 13 June 2011 09:39 (twelve years ago) link
Tennant's total just seems to include the main series + xmas + specials, not the Children In Need one, not even the regeneration.
― Dust, Monday, 13 June 2011 09:43 (twelve years ago) link
Well I mean Davison was in it for what, three years? 26 episodes a year? That's just off the top of my head. McCoy was in 3x14 + Dimensions in Time + the American movie which doesn't = 69. Observer my arse.
― We are Real solid sex doll AKA RSSD (Autumn Almanac), Monday, 13 June 2011 09:44 (twelve years ago) link
69 inc 5 doctors for davison acc. to wikip + my hasty arithmetic.
― ledge, Monday, 13 June 2011 09:48 (twelve years ago) link
I just worked it out, they swapped McCoy and Davison.

So apparently we're not getting 14 episodes in 2012 after all...

Yeah, people are already jumping on this without knowing any facts at all.
There seems to be a lot of talk about rumoured on-going production chaos that's rumoured to have caused this year's split and the rumoured 2012–2013 season rumoured rumoured, and I suppose there's also the chance that budget cuts are hitting it (although this show could probably fund itself with all the DVD and toy sales).
― Autumn Alma Park Toilets (Schlafsack), Thursday, 16 June 2011 06:25 (twelve years ago) link
that is not how the funding works tho*. Who brings in more $ than anything other BBC property IIRC, and has its production budget cut year-on-year.
* same at w0rk here btw, even on [f0rm3r j0b] DVDs I compiled and sleevenoted and whatnot. sometimes got a free copy though.
― underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have pwned (sic), Thursday, 16 June 2011 07:44 (twelve years ago) link
"anything other property." to the cocktail bar!
Yeah I know income =/= budget where public funding is concerned, just thinking aloud.

The Moffat Muppet makes an appearance at ComicCon, from the latest Nerdist podcast:
http://www.nerdist.com/2011/07/nerdist-podcast-109-live-at-sdcc-11-w-matt-smith-karen-gillan-wil-wheaton/
Which does feature Wil Wheaton and the podcast principles talking over each other and stepping on each other's stories to get in badly timed jokes.

This. Would it be completely insane, given that River can maybe regenerate (perhaps, if she is the time baby from early on), that she IS Madame Kovarian somehow? And thus engineers her younger self to kill the Doctor in the spacesuit while her (slightly) younger self tries to stop this from happening?
That feels too timey-wimey but Moffat loves that shit.
― Somewhere between Fergie and Jesus (Alex in Montreal), Saturday, 30 July 2011 22:55 (twelve years ago) link
Kind of wish Moffat would calm down on this shit slightly myself. I still think his best Who scripts are all from the Rusty era.
― Inevitable stupid samba mix (chap), Sunday, 31 July 2011 01:25 (twelve years ago) link
I do like the fact that the show is finally getting to grips with time travel and its complexities, though, rather than just using it to arrive somewhere for adventure of the week (not that there's necessarily anything wrong with that)
― not bulimic, just a cat (James Morrison), Sunday, 31 July 2011 01:43 (twelve years ago) link
Oh yeah, I´m totally up for all that in theory, I just think Moffat´s plotting has been far less elegant as show runner than when it was on a smaller scale... A tad overambitious perhaps.
