Planet Gallifrey: New and Shiny

New and Shiny

The time is nigh!!

Or... it is in 2 days anyway, and in celebration of this, the BBC Doctor Who website has turned all shiny and new with anticipation!


They have a wee jigsaw that looks like this when completed:


And which gives away these new lines:

Miss Foster: Adipose Industries. The twenty-first century way to loose weight. No exercise, no diet, no pain. Just lifelong freedom, from fat, the holy grail of modern age. And here it is!

[Holds up an ordinary red and white capsule]

Miss Foster: You just take one capsule. One capsule, once a day for three weeks. And the fat, as they say...

[ON SCREEN, GRAPHIC, the logo does a little spin, the jingle sings: The fat just walks awaaaay!]

And there is also the customary Fear Factor, where 4 children comment on the episode as they watch it... and it goes a little like this:
  • 1 min - Samuel's amused: "They almost walked into each other!" "But what are they doing?" says Amy.

  • 4 min - "They look like meerkats," says Adam. Amy's exasperated. Harry thinks it's hilarious.

  • 7 min - Amy's eyes widen in concern. Meanwhile, Samuel is reminded of someone... "Was she in charge of the Bubbleshock factory in Sarah Jane Adventures?"

  • 10 min - Adam's advice is: "Try switching it off and back on again."

  • 12 min - It's like a Raston Warrior Robot!

  • 13 min - "Ooh, look who it is!" The boys instantly recognise a familiar face.

  • 16 min - "100 years? She'll be dead by then!" notes the ever-practical Harry.

  • 18 min - "Why can't she hear it?" wonders Samuel.

  • 20 min - "It's the wrong man! I mean, woman!" exclaims Harry.

  • 21 min - Harry's approves of the Doctor's new piece of kit.

  • 25 min - Amy's surprised at an unexpected yet familiar device.

  • 27 min - The kids remember from Human Nature...

  • 32 min - "That's not like the Doctor, is it?" asks Adam.

  • 33 min - "Boxing Day is your birthday, Adam," Samuel says. "Donna wouldn't know that," deadpans Adam.

  • 39 min - "The people in London must be getting used to ********** by now," laughs Samuel. "I feel sorry for Gramps," says Adam.

  • 40 min - "Technically," muses Adam, "they're British citizens."

  • 43 min - "Move her stuff in!" Samuel urges him.
Oooh, hint-erific!
(I word I have never used before and hopefully never will again)

This is unbearable, why isn't it Saturday! Is it wrong to be this excited?

Fear factor? without doubt IMHO BLINK was the only ever scary episode (and I still liked the rest, but they are "adventures", not scary!

Its alluding to when the Doctor gets all threatening to Miss Foster:

"Oooh, the Doctor's not happy. The kids remember from Human Nature that it's a very bad move to make him angry."
