This may sound like a long tedious way around it. If you have a recording device such as cool edit pro or audacity on your computer your could always route a 3.5mm jack from mic to headphones socket and record the item that way, then save as mp3 and bob's your uncle

I would like to see blatant in ya face nods to the series 50 year past (maybe the Tardis landing in Totters Lane)

I would love past Doctors, companions, enemies (but it's not possible to have them all) - I would like to see a nod to all the past Doctors in some way - whether a mention of something, a place associated with them, something subtle

Companion wise I would like Susan & Ian to appear as appreciation for what they helped to start

I would love any of the usual Who baddies- Daleks, Cybermen, The Master (but not all) or maybe even one that hasnt reappeared in the Nu Who series yet eg The Yeti -but used properly (not like in the Pandorica story- I hated the way the old enemies were churned out for that one & I really hate the way the Silurians & Sontarans have been used recently

I want a good adventure/action story - I dont just want a story full of cameo appearances from the series past characters

I want a movie length episode (90 mins plus)

I want to see Bessie again

For the 50th? Damn easy.

90 minutes at least. 2 hours for preference.

MUST meet all the previous ones.

For 3 - 7 look at what DS9 did for 'Trials And Tribblulations' and do it even better. For the 1st and 2nd, have him converse via The Space/Time Visualiser.

Force 9 back on set (at gun-pont if needs be) for something set prior to 'Rose' - or just go to where ever he's filming. It's not like he's changed that much and he's more likely to grudgingly appear if he doesn't have to go to much effort to get there for a few minutes worth of screen time.

10 would probably turn up for free.

And - DEFINITELY - at least quarter of an hour with 8 and Charley (I prefer Lucie as a companion, but Charley was the first proper companion for me) on screen as a big Middle Finger to all those that still say BF aren't canon.

Classic Daleks and Tenth-Planet/Moonbase Cybermen for sure, but with audio from Hawkins and co.

The TARDIS must revert back to the Hartnell era external dimensions and look just as battered as it did by the end of The War Games.

All the companions (TV and Audio) must be name-checked somehow, even if it's just him flipping back through a photo album.

His companion for the story must be be Ian. Played by Russell.

(I was going to say Susan, but that opens too big a can-of-worms over the continuity of how the deaths of David and Lucie are handled, especially were she to meet 8 on-screen later in her time-line but earlier in his.)

The whole story must end-up with a policeman in a foggy London street pausing to check the lock on the door of Foremans Junkyard.

*cough* Chameleon Arch *cough* - Before 8th/9th heads off to butt-domes with the Daleks in The Time War he quickly heads back to Earth to tell her what's about to happen. Susan's still pissed at him over David and Lucie, and still utterly distraught over the loss of her son willingly becomes Human so that she won't have to carry the loss for so, so, many lives.

Well if The Master could escape and there always seems to be a handful of Daleks who keep managing to escape when the story warrants it; why not have more Time Lords have escaped. Or maybe even Gallifrey almost returning could have weakened the time lock.

The story should revolve around the Doctor(s). It seems that since his return, most of the stories seem to revolve around his companions

I'd like to see Eight to be a large fixture in the episode. Perhaps the main plot could revolve around a group of Time Lord (including Romana who swept them off to safety in e-space when Rassilon returned) coming back to the universe and deciding to save Gallifrey. Since Eight cast the final strike that ended the war, they could start fiddling with his timeline. We could get brief appearances by old Doctors and old companions before focusing on Eight. We could see Charley and Lucie and then end it with Eleven ensuring that Eight uses the moment causing his regeneration. Minimally, 11 would be joined by 10, preferably 9 as well but we could stick to his cameo if he'd prefer.

I'm afraid that Moffat isn't going to have the restraint to make an anniversary show that isn't MOFFAT WHO + celebration of the series. If previous Doctors come back, it will be through the lens of MOFFAT WHO. Sylvester will say, "I carry an umbrella. Umbrellas are cool." River Song will wrap Tom's scarf around herself. 30 years ago, Terrance Dicks didn't write a Peter Davison story. Even then, Dicks was part of the old guard of the series. If anything, Davison took a back seat for the story while his predecessors got to do a victory lap. Imagine how lousy The Five Doctors would have been if it had been tied into "The Mara Arc". On repeat viewings, you'd say, "What the #$%# is a Mara, and why aren't I seeing more Patrick Troughton?" I really don't think Moffat can disassociate himself from the piecemeal narrative that has dominated Smith's tenure. Who are the Silence? What is the question? Wibble Wobble? Wobble wobble wibble? Who the #$%@ cares? I want to see Paul McGann meet Tom Baker, not a camp potato talking to a sardonic lesbian Silurian. I may be proven wrong, but I don't think Moffat can be reverent to something he hasn't made himself.

Opener with all the incarnations available (4-11)
an episode for each of them with a couple of two parters for four and eight
and a two part finale bringing all to a glorious conclusion

I'm not gonna get it though

it seems like the next half series will conclude with the solution to the clara/oswin thing and (from what I have heard) the single anniversary special will involve
River gathering together ALL the former Medics (including CGI for One, Two and Three) to battle some threat to her hubby

Well you definitely have a colorful way of putting it DSM but i'm afraid that you may be right. Moffat has left sooo many loose ends and everything still revolves (at least loosely) to those unresolved arcs. Could it be that the Medic is himself responsible for the silence that falls? I mean he is doing everything possible for everyone to un-know him. You could say that as far as the Pepper-Pots are concerned, the silence has Fallen. They have no clue who the Medic is. On the other hand, if the silence falling revolves around the very name of the Medic, it could very well be a good "in" for the others. I don't think ANY incarnation is too keen on the world knowing his name. Could be that Susan knows something about that so having her show up could be interesting. If River does show up, i really hope that they do something intelligent with her. She's lots of fun AFAIC but she doesn't have the character depth needed for something that will probably shake up the canon and probably retcon quite a bit of the story.
Personally, I would love to see the Time Lords return. Romana having something to do with that could be interesting. Never did get how/why Rassilon had to come back. Romana could have easily done the part. The Rassilon appearance did not in any way refer to his backstory so it didn't offer much other than throw in a name for us pre-revival fans. I'm still hoping that Susan will somehow come back and regenerate and join her grandfather on his journeys.
The Clara storyline better not be a let down. For now, I can handle it, but not for much longer. And what of the TARDIS exploding??? Sheesh... Talk about stretching things. Moffat will probably throw everything in. I just hope that for the 50th, we do have something linking old WHO with new WHO, something more than just the odd flashback.

As much as I would love to see it; I don't think we'll see any of the classic docs in nuWho. There was such a long gap between series that many of the older docs have gotten too old. How could the doc continue to age after he's regenerated? The only way I can see it happening is with CGI and I'm not sure if the budget will stretch that far.

He couldn't because she never was rescued. The Silence programmed her to be a psychopath for several years until she escaped, then River regenerated into a 7 year old on the streets of New York, AND THEN she met her 7 year old parents and they all raised each other for the next 15 years until that day in the cornfield.

Saving Melanie would have killed River.

I had that thought too, but everyone else was doing it, so I figured it'd be ok. I think as long as the titles from the latest releases or popular audiobooks don't show up, it shouldn't be a huge problem? Searching for the name of an old episode in google is hardly going to bring this site up in the first results, and the forum title itself doesn't really bother to hide what it is. What does everyone else think?

I think putting the titles and such in code was to stop people homing in on us too easily. Just mentioning actual stories and characters shouldn't matter as there are so many Dr Who sites out there it'd be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Like you say, the thread title is hardly stealthy.

What TTROY is saying is that we should be careful all the time, and not just when we post a link, and I agree with him, why take the risk of loosing this group if we can protect it buy just being a litle more thoughtful when it comes to mentioning a episode title. I see no wrong in that train of thought, infact the more you think about it the more it makes sense.

[QUOTE=moonwillow;2290551]Speaking of River.... Did I miss something or will the Dr never actually FIND Infant River and return her to Rory and Amy so she can actually be raised by them?[/

That would change her timeline. (SPOILERS....)

She was raised at that school, got away, regenerated into Mels, grew up Amy & Rory, kidnapped them and the Medic, tried to kill Hitler, got shot, regenerated again and boom there is River pretty much as we know her. There are still some gaps but they're all after she killed the Medic.

I enjoyed it. It's not a complete Yates-fest so your dislike may be held in abeyance. Plus, of course, it will eventually tie in to an over-arcing plot so it's probably necessary to listen to this one to appreciate the whole.

To be honest I was expecting something special from the series but so far they have turned out to be a bit of a disapointment for me, just a elcinorhC noinapmoC by anyother name, with the ecception that the CC's seem to fit into the respective medic's era quiet well, where as these dont quiet seem to fit in quiet as comfortable. The stories are well read/acted and in this case RF does his best to inject some feeling and pace to the tale, but for me they are just falling short of the goal post. I don't want to put you off, by all means they are worth a listen and I'm sure many will disagree with my "review". I Just hope they get better, or I may fall by the wayside.

I politely disagree with m'colleague here.

As regular CC it'd be fine as a Yates origin story, but it felt oddly balance towards that character in the context of what this range purports to be.

Don't get me wrong, it's a good enough story that captures the era very well. It, IMHO, just doesn't 'fit' with the previous two.

Appreciate the thoughts on Fate o' the Medic 3, folks. I was definitely getting the impression of it being 'CC' by another name, and I'm even wondering if they're going for a clever overarching story line with these... or just taking another opportunity to monetize the anniversary. But they're relatively inexpensive, and that's my favorite medic so far. Then again, the upcoming CC is an entertaining-sounding 3rd Medic story... Decisions, decisions.

Nobber
03-06-2013, 12:21 AM
There's definitely a strand coming through that connects them, and I guess that it'll be (excuse the phrase) more obvious as the series progresses.

I don't think it's really a monetize ploy, as such, as BF could have just done then alone. This really seems to be BF off-loading the publication/promotion/distribution of the CC format to AudioGo under a different range name. My guess is that BF will still do actual production of most of them in the same way they (excuse the phrase) sub-contracted for The Black Library and their Warhammer series.

That's reassuring. I suppose I should just kick back and enjoy the golden anniversary for what it is rather than being quite so cynical quite so much of the time. Next serial in the queue for me... the legendary 14th season finale, Talons. Very much looking forward to that.

Agreed. Nothing special story-wise, though, and the 'thread' is pretty flimsy so far. I liked the fact that the writing style echoed the Target book range of the time so perfectly. Felt more like a Perters story than the first one felt like a Billy. The 2nd's the best so far IMHO, but probably only because I love me a bit of Frazer channelling Patrick... ;)

Lots of people have issues with P2P (ISPs throttling bandwidth, the security/privacy issues etc) and UsetNet just seems to throw people completely. I'm a fan of the latter, but can see that it's all pretty overwhelming until you get the hang of which groups and posters are reliable.

I guess so but it is relatively easy to set up a vpn, and a lot of those sites even provide guides or products to address security issues. Also the file sizes are all pretty small compared to a film or tv episode.
Must admit I like usenet but then back in the early 90's that's all there was so I guess I have grown up with all the twists and turns.

If you think usenet is bad you should have tried CompuServe and file transfers on a 14k modem dialling a regional access point (i.e. not local phone call rates!!)

The best UseNet providers (such as Giganews, AstraNews etc etc) are paid services, yeah, but you're talking about many years worth of retention and damn quick download speed.

There are a few free servers with about a year of stuff, but they tend to have slower download speeds, but still generally a LOT quicker than P2P. Or servers like hitnews where you can keep signing-up for free three-days trails using disposable addresses.

It makes life a lot easier if you just think of UseNet as a REALLY BIG email system and each group is an email folder.

Just found this group a few days ago and have been reading a lot of old posts. Can't believe I didn't find you guys sooner!

I use Newshosting to access stuff on Usenet. The cost varies depending on how much data you plan to transfer. Their Medic stuff can be a bit random but I get a lot of good stuff, Medic and otherwise, off of there so I find it well worth it. I use their software and just search for stuff, rather than try to read through it and participate in discussions. I really haven't looked at other options in awhile, but in the past I always found the free solutions a bit cumbersome and not very user friendly.

Much the same here. I use a free 'xusenet' account for regular stuff, and generate a new 'hitnews' account if there's something like a DVD image I want to grab.

The problem with this animation style is that there are so many cuts for no reason. The Doctor is just standing there, and in a matter of seconds there are multiple cuts to varying close ups with little to no expression change. If the amounts of cuts in animation were halved it would be much more tolerable, but the editing style really meshes with the style in which the show was done. The animation company doing the animation for The Ice Warriors released a clip that seemed to understand much better how the old show was shot.

At least this time its in black and white, unlike the Reign of Terror episodes which they did in sepia for some stupid reason.

Maybe, but you can't judge the whole ep on a clip a minute or so long, which may not even be the finished artlcle.

What do people think of the comparison between the different animation styles in 'The 1nvas1on', RoT and the clip we've seen of the frosty fighters due out this year?

I thought the 1nvas1on animation was good, but I thought the RoT animation was gorgeous (attached to a somewhat bland story, but nonetheless beautiful). The level of detail was remarkable, and didn't take long to feel like it was live action. However, the Frosty Fighters clip looks disappointing in comparison, with something of a 'Flash Animation' feel to it. I hope it'll look better in full, but I can't help feeling that they've gone with a second animation company because either a) it means they can get episodes done twice as fast, or b) they're cheaper. I hope it's the former, because I'd like more of the RoT people (who it seems are also responsible for 10th P).

Phew, that was a lot. This is why I need people to talk to about this stuff.

Since it's come up again, I'll mention that I recently signed on with a VPN-- Private Internet Access. It was recommended by someone in this thread (and thanks to whomever it was, I'm just too lazy to dig back that many pages). They were spot on. It's gotten good marks for confidentiality (though there are no guarantees, of course), the price is excellent ($40 for a whole year), it's very easy to use, and it hasn't hampered speed at all. And ISP spokespeople have pretty much admitted (http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/02/heres-what-an-actual-six-strikes-copyright-alert-looks-like) that it gets around the 'six strikes' plan monitoring some p2p traffic in the US.

That might have been me that recommended Private Internet Access. I've been on it for several months and I'm loving it, though I do find some servers tend to disconnect on occasion for no apparent reason (Sweden was particularly bad). I'm on North York Canada right now and so far, so good, except it seemed to have an issue when I used Firefox. I switched back to IE (boo!) and it's been fine ever since. If you do get random disconnects, you might want to turn on the Kill Switch to cut off your Internet traffic until you're reconnected.

On a different note, I was on the Switzerland server for a while, and I found the different ads on the Internet absolutely wonderful - apparently the Swiss see nothing but chocolate and gingerbread! :)

The problem with this animation style is that there are so many cuts for no reason. The Doctor is just standing there, and in a matter of seconds there are multiple cuts to varying close ups with little to no expression change. If the amounts of cuts in animation were halved it would be much more tolerable, but the editing style really meshes with the style in which the show was done. The animation company doing the animation for The Ice Warriors released a clip that seemed to understand much better how the old show was shot.

At least this time its in black and white, unlike the Reign of Terror episodes which they did in sepia for some stupid reason.

Totally agree - too many 'groovy' cuts. Sure, it calms down at the end, but that's probably because they're just copying the footage that exists (which I hope will be included somewhere on the disc). The Ice Warriors stuff definitely looks better, although I must admit that the movement of the characters reminded me very strongly of "Archer"!

But whatever my thoughts on the finished products, I, too, hope they'll eventually do the lot. It'd be lovely to have a complete set on my shelf. :)

Unfortunatly LC have a strict policy of not recasting characters from the show, for instance David, son of second medic does a very convincing portrail of his father, but LC won't use him in such a role. Possibly because the BBC won't let them.

I have to be honest, it's been quite a while since I listened to it and tbh if the entire story had been anyone else but TB, I don't think I'd have bothered. Louise Jameson playing such a major role that isn't Leela is just wrong imho.

It took me a while to really get into, but in the end I did enjoy the whole TB Hornet/Demon/Serpent series.

But they're not without their issues.

The first series can't make its mind up if it's an 'extended narration/CC' format or a proper Full Cast.

The second feels more like "The Space/Time Adventures Of Tom Baker" rather than The Doctor. I sort of feel Tom was, if you'll excuse the phrase, 'fighting' against playing the character and just wanted to have fun as himself. (Hope that makes sense)

Mrs Wisbey could have been a great character in the style of Evelyn, but she just never quite works. With some more polish she could work well within the BF canon.

Yates is just a waste of time. I just can't take to the character as portrayed in these.

And the whole framing device of Nest Cottage and Hexford, combined with the majority of how Tom portrays The Doctor, just never feels as though it fits within 4th's time. As a comparison, The Stockbridge Trilogy works very well and it FEELS right.

But I'd certainly say they're worth a listen as the actual stories aren't really that bad. And they're a fascinating 'documentary' of getting Tom back into the role. You start of with someone who's obviously still not convinced by the whole the idea, who then starts to enjoy the experience and then eventually playing the role more of how we'd recognise from the TV days.

There is no shortage of very good actors, but LC seem to favour actors that are part of "the group", again no disrespect to the actors, afterall they are getting paid for their time and would be mad not to take the work, but when I listen to some of the CD extras I get a sense of "elitism" amongst the crew, who use the extras as a reason to give themselfs a pat on the back.

Bearing in mind that it was almost 30 years between last playing the doc and doing Hornet's Nest, and that if rumour is to be believed he spent most of his time drunk playing the doc, it would naturally take him a while to get back into character.

Thank you Bulletzen for the latest! Great stuff.

Not sure about that 1 to 2 animation, though it's a vast improvement on the RoT stuff. RoT seemed to have loads of uneccesary embeliishments to me that were 'out of style' with the rest of the original production. At one point you see Ian walking through a cellar and this massive great spider is walking up a web - it calls attention to itself when the atmosphere of the scene and Ian's exploration of the environment should be maintained. It was unnecessary embroidery, totally extraneous to the story. And the editiing style was atrocious. I really do hope these were teething problems - the TP one does look to be better - let's hope. The Frozen Fighters stuff looks splendid t'me - Peter Barkworth's lips look a little tightly-drawn over his teeth but that's a very minor quibble. I much prefer the visual style of it. Looking forward to that one.

You are right of course, this is a site based on sharing. But sharing, of course, implies a two way process and (lets be honest here) there's precious little of that going on these days. Let me put it this way, when you are on the main forum and you see the name of the latest poster, how many of those names make you think "oh good, there'll be something new up that I can download"? Very few. But the thread has page after page of people asking for stuff. Now there's nothing wrong with asking but that's ALL they do. They don't themselves share, they don't help with the re-upping of dead links even though they almost certainly took the original download. They don't contribute. So this whole thread, at this moment in time, is resting almost wholly of the shoulders of a very few. Which doesn't seem equitable.

The problem with that assumption is that you have those few that post it almost immediately so by the time others get their copies [ myself included ] it has already been shared. Too many assumption are going on here.. if you dont want to share because you feel the burden is too heavy then dont....... but dont malign people for not sharing withing the first 48 hours of a release when there are a few that always do.

Nobody is talking about sharing within 48 hours. Del was talking about sharing older uploads where the links have gone dead. The main gripe about the whole 48 hour thing is people begging for the stories before people have time to actually rip them and upload them.

I know Bulletzen is probably going to put up the new links first but when, 10 pages down the line, somebody requests a non-dead link there should be people other than Bulletzen prepared to step into the breach. And it isn't just the new stuff anyway, I'm sure there are lots of people on here who would be delighted to have links to older stuff. I put up medic soundtracks from ages ago and had lots of downloads so the desire for this old stuff is out there. If you have older stuff in your collection, why not put some of it up? You might be late to the party but that doesn't mean you can't bring something with you to keep the party going.

On a totally different note; has anyone managed to get hold of SG-1 Series 3 yet? I managed to find a couple of links at the weekend but they all looked a bit dodgy.

Same here, I think they (S&S) were supernatural thrillers/mysteries.

Yeah, that's as good a way of describing them as anything.

And there's not always a happy ending to the stories ...

EDIT TO ADD - I think they're actually better than the original TV series as the 2xCD format means they're slighter better paced. The TV was 6x30 min stories and, to be honest, there were times they really didn't have enough story to fill that time properly.

I can vaguely remember the TV show. Am I right in thinking the stories are supernatural mysteries? Have never really read anything about them and am going in blind.

From what I remember, Sapphire and Steel are two agents from somewhere, up to something for some reason. It is never clear who they are, what they are doing, or why they are doing it. It was a very confusing show.

That lack of real definition for them really helps, too, as it means that they've a very flexible format.

radionaut,
Thank you for your welcoming words to Claude71 in reponse to his first post. Lately users of the forum seem to have to become rather irate (for no logical reason) in response to another user's posts and we need to welcome others (WELCOME Claude71). After all, this place was intended for any DrWho fan to exchange information and ideas. Thanks again Claude71.

Just an observation.... you know all the trouble we go through to make these cryptic titles in places of the real ones? and then people go an list the favorites from each doctor effectively making the previous actions useless.Yes, there is a contradiction/toss-up between protecting vulnerable shares and being able to attract the most newbies.

The One Doctor would be a good example. There's a lot of humour in that

Will you be over-viewing all 2,000+ stories? Or would you care to refine the parameters?

"The Gunfighters" is the only comedy-western. Much loved by fans of cowboy musicals. They rate it #1. And called 'the worst story of all time' by scifi & horror aficionados. It is the only(?) Doctor Who story that contains no science-fiction, no monsters, no aliens. Apocryphally, it is said to be the first time the question "that must not be asked" is used as a joke. Historically aberrant, it marks the end of Doctor Who's educational thrust.

There's a theme for you -- evolution of the script line "Doctor who?" It's always(?) part of a joke when the Doctor says it.

What everyone above has said, plus on TV City of Death, The Romans, Delta & The Bannermen, Love & Monsters, The Lodger, Horns of Nimon, Unicorn & The Wasp, The Space/Time Comic Relief episodes & several others that don't come to mind right now (most stories from the 60s, 70s and NuWho have large chunks of pure funny in them). Audio: Boom-Bang-A-Bang, DW & The Pirates, Hereos of Sontar, Max Warp, All of Paul Magrs 4th medic stuff is pretty much undiluted camp (ditto the anything with Iris Wildthyme), The Auntie Matter, and again, many more...

Oh, and burny - I'm not a massive fan of 'cowboy musicals' (Unless "Cannibal: The Musical" counts?), but I do love me some Gunfighters... :)

"The Sunmakers" with the scarved medic and his 'wild babe' companion.

The Pirate Planet shows some lines from Douglas Adams toying with ideas that eventually became Hitchikers Guide

City Of Death - Tom Baker is really on form.

For Cringeworthy slapstick attempts at humor watch Sylvester McCoys antics in his debut Time And The Rani

Also Tim Quinn & Dicky Howett used to do comics strip cartoons about Doctor Who that used to appear in the Doctor Who Magazine

I'm aware this is somewhat OT as it only has to do with LC as opposed to LC & the medics, but -

Since they are obviously done with the grumpy law enforcer series I shared a few pages back and I needed a Toby Longworth fix, I went hunting and ended up buying the 2 H-i-g-h-l-a-n-d-e-r episodes he was in, then downloaded the rest of Series 1 (torrents) because incomplete sets bug me. Should anybody want it, let me know.

Going completely OT, I also own all the Warhammer 40 000 audiobooks TL has narrated-slash-performed. You can find the list here (http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Toby_Longworth#.UTmxujBmh8E). For now the writing's excellent. The concept behind them is too testosterone-driven for my liking though so despite my almost naughty appreciation for That Voice, going through them all has been... a process. The point being, anyone who's into the "War! Honor! Let's die like MEN!" genre and wants them should say so.
