For a metal case, basically. Crazy
CEX aint messing about!!!
Immediately purchased the remaining Steelbooks I'd been too lazy to order when I got home.
I wonder if you could get good results using AI to upscale the pre-Tennant specials to HD...
And the best part, trying to remove the stickers potentially rip the overlay and leave glue on the steelbook itself.
There probably won't be a special this year, but rumour has it that episode 1 of the new series will air on January 1st.Do we think it'll just be a simple series premiere date announcement or a full trailer?
Also, is it too late to announce a Xmas/NY special?
Moffat is a better man than me, I'd be whining nonstop about having stuck around for longer to keep the slot only for it to be pissed away!Too much to hope it's a new show runner (wouldn't happen this way either, lol)
I expect a trailer and maybe a New Years Day episode.
Fuck Chibnall for losing the Christmas Day slot.
Hopea he's gone by the 60th.
That doesn't sound like a great time for the show, no?There probably won't be a special this year, but rumour has it that episode 1 of the new series will air on January 1st.

It's not bad- having a special would be better, but New Year's is still a big day for TV, and a big glossy relaunch starting then makes a certain amount of sense.
My dream scenario would be that instead of a single anniversary episode for the 60th, they did a mini-season of six episodes, with pairs of eps written by RTD, Moffat, and Chibnall. And that could be in lieu of a full season, to lighten the production load, given how enormously difficult I'd imagine it would be to corral 5-6 Doctors + 3 showrunners together like that.Yeah I have zero hope that Chibnall could write a good 60th anniversary episode and I wouldn't be surprised if the 60th is the last time we'll see at least 1 or 2 modern Doctor actors play the Doctor.
I really hope the score is a little more interesting this time around. It's good musically, and it was better in the Dalek episode (as was pretty much everything), but I do miss Gold's style, honestly.
Chibnall deserves time to grow. As does Whittaker, obviously, though I already think she's brilliant (just lacking material). I think the rumors that have gone around a bit about the BBC reaching out to Tennant about another multi-doc episode are probably true, though - reaching for Tennant in particular is the classic panic button move... and obviously he and Chibnall are close.
I'm praying for more oomph and energy in pretty much everything, including the score. The whole show was so languid last time out- not methodical and deliberate, but boring and listless.
As much as I'd like them to get back to the tone and verve of the RTD era (God, if only), it doesn't necessarily need to be that energetic- it just needs to avoid the cardinal Doctor Who sin of being boring.
I guess that special is being held over for later then?
Ha, I feel like this rumor comes around about every other season now...Chibnall deserves time to grow. As does Whittaker, obviously, though I already think she's brilliant (just lacking material).

He did a sort of interview for the End of Time theatrical showing this summer where he was asked about coming back for the 60th, and he said basically he'd like to do it but has no control over those things and has no idea if/when the BBC would ever ask him back. Which obviously we know they will, and of course if Tennant was actually being talked to about something he wouldn't give it away in this, but his overall tone struck me as a guy who has no idea when his Doctor Who return would be.I'm sure that in one of the interviews (for the Season 23 blu ray release), Tennant ruled out coming back so soon anyway?
