Is it November yet?
April 11th, 2009
Now Planet of the Dead is out of the way, our attention turns to the second of this year’s specials, the title of which was revealed at the end of tonight’s episode!
It has now been confirmed that the Doctor will return this November in The Waters of Mars, with actress Lindsay Duncan guest-starring as his companion, Adelaide.
And whatever happens in the episode, which is written by Russell T Davies and Phil Ford, things are certainly about to take a drastic turn for the worse for the Time Lord…
First comment to do with Waters of mars on whoviannet! WOOP!
Anyway, looks terrifying. Lets hope this is an absolutely terrifying romp.
I think it looks like one of the awesome Moffat-esque chillers. Should be great.
The Cloister Bell!!
Looked a little Impossible Planet/Satan Pit to me… crossed with 42.
sorry to double post, just realised both those eps had the Doctor in a space suit, and the pics from shooting on this ep has him in one too… hmm….
I think this one will be better than POTD. Sadly i wasnt that impressed but loved the chilling warning. HE will knock 4 times! brilliant. This one looks terrifying. if i didnt know who’d written it I would have guessed it as a moffatt contibution
Yeah, after all the waiting, I was a little disappointed, but loved the prophetic bit at the end. Gave me chills..
The Waters Of Mars
The Wars Of The Master.
Hhhmmmm
Love it. Points to you for spotting that!!!
Anyway, I think this one looks great. And I hope it is Moffat-esque as Tom Beasley suggested, because he always writes the scariest stuff. And the most intricate stuff. And now I feel I’ve done him a great disservice by using the word ’stuff’.
Have you noticed it’s been quite topical? They’ve just discovered evidence of water on Mars quite recently, and there were mentions of the recession in POTD.
Oh! And Donna always called the Doctor a Martian. She was referenced in POTD, and presumably in this one too, leading up to her appearance in the grand finale. It better be a brilliant role for her in the finale, not just a cameo.
