Is the Doctor Back?

[Tandum (Robin)]

Is Dr Who back on for another season? I heard a rumour it starts in the UK on Saturday night?

[tlgerdes (Trevor)]

www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho lists Saturday the 1/9 for the first of 5 episodes for this season.

I saw the previews on the ABC as well.

It looks pretty intriguing with robots and dinosaurs.

On the BBC website they are showing 'Pond Life: Parts 1 -5' as way of a teaser and as the lead up to the Asylum of the Daleks

Will be watching it tonight.
I promise no spoilers. :p

[naskies (Dave)]

Season 7 Episode 1 will be viewable in Australia at 5.10 am tomorrow (Sun 2nd) via ABC iView.

[JB80 (Jarrod)]

It was a very good opening episode, I guess that's all I can say really without spoiler tags.

My kids gave me the best father's day gift. A leisurely breakfast and then we all sat down to watch it on iView.

All is right with the world

Awesome!!!! I too watched it on IView. Look forward to watching it again on the big screen on Saturday night.

[JB80 (Jarrod)]

Dinosaurs in Space is a good episode too, nice to see the fun episodes making a return.

[Gem (Grant)]

Totally agree - Dr Who should always have an element of fun mixed with suspense.
Dinosaurs in Space was my kind of Dr Who! Even Blink (going back) had fun mixed in with some good suspense.

spoiler for the 1st episode below.

good 1st episode. Rory needs a little more backbone, i think...


the Doctor is seeming less invincible (although you know he will win) and often more scared in this season so far, perhaps more aware of his mortal coil.


not sure about the "reset" of the antagonists in this 1st episode. i kept thinking of the destruction of Vulcan in Star Trek- just a way to restart a storyline when new ideas were not forthcoming.



also, Blink = best Doctor Who episode of all time

[Tandum (Robin)]

Seen both now. It's lining up to be a great series.

[Gem (Grant)]

Agreed!
