February 20th, 2010

series-5-trailer-discussion-grass

As promised, the second official trailer for Series 5 of Doctor Who, a specially-shot CGI sequence to promote its imminent launch, has had its nationwide debut! Not only did it bring us some new and intreguing shots of the Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond whirling through the time vortex (as your do!), but it also came with a dollop of reassurance that the new series is definitely on its way!

What did you think of tonight’s thrilling trail? How many times have you replayed it? Has watching it made you even more excited for their upcoming adventures, or is it just a painful reminder that the show as we know it is changing before our very eyes? Let us know!

Feel free to leave your thoughts and discuss your outlandish theories in the comments of this post! Have your say today! Geronimo!

Our first look at Series 5 was unveiled on New Year’s Day following the broadcast of The End of Time, Part Two.

Discussion: The End of Time (Part Two)

January 1st, 2010

Warning: The following article has been designated a Spoiler Zone, as its comments openly discuss the events of part two of The End of Time. Please do not read the comments if you haven’t yet seen the episode and don’t want to be spoiled. Thank you.

And so it came to pass, on New Year’s Day, that the Tenth Doctor did cease to exist, and the lives of Whovians everywhere were changed forever…

The long-awaited second part of The End of Time had its premiere screening in the United Kingdom tonight, and, after gruelling months of speculation and theories, the Tenth Doctor faced his final curtain call. And what a final curtain call it was!

If you’re anything like us, you’ll be feeling a mixture of emotions round about now. Sadness, that the Tenth Doctor is well and truly gone, happiness, that the surviving characters are now set free to live their own lives as a new era of the series begins (what d’you mean they’re all actors!?), and excitement, to see what the future will hold for the Doctor now he’s in his eleventh incarnation. And although we understand that it’s hard to sum up just how you’re feeling, we invite you to leave your thoughts about tonight’s finale in our episode discussion.

It’s been a long road, but was it worth the wait? Was it everything you wanted it to be and more? Are you disappointed by his final chapter? Have you run out of tissues? Whatever’s going on in your head right now, try and make sense of all the chaos and let us know in a comment on this post!

We hope you enjoyed the show, and thanks for joining us for what can only be described as one of the biggest Doctor Who events in its 46 year history. The Tenth Doctor may have left the building, but he’ll never leave our hearts.

Discussion: The Waters of Mars

November 15th, 2009

wom-discussion-imageThe waiting is finally over - and about time too! After suffering painful withdrawal symptoms since April, the latest Doctor Who special, The Waters of Mars, has just had its official debut on BBC1 and BBC HD. And what a special it was!

The long-awaited adventure, which has been built up to with months of tantalizing teasers, press screenings and cast interviews, saw the Doctor arriving on Mars, but the head of Bowie Base One, Captain Adelaide Brooke, was far from impressed by his uninvited appearance. They soon found themselves under attack from a deadly water-based threat, and the Time Lord encountered troubles much closer to home…

The staff here at WhovianNet have been hard at work these past few weeks bringing you all the latest information you need, but we’re not quite finished yet! We now bring you our live discussion for tonight’s episode, and we’ll soon be updating all of our content over at the main site, too!

In the meantime, though, feel free to let us and other visitors know what you thought of the Tenth Doctor’s spectacular return to our small screens by leaving your reactions as a comment on this post - the perfect way for you to share in the journey with your fellow fans! 

Did his penultimate adventure whisk you away on a tidal wave of emotions, or was the tale of the Red Planet a bore? Whether you loved it or loathed it, we want to know (both sobs and squees permitted!), so what are you waiting for!?

As always, please avoid the comments if you haven’t seen the episode yet. It’ll be up on the BBC iPlayer shortly, and it’s also repeated this coming Wednesday 18th November at 8:00PM on BBC3! For fans across the pond in countries that are still waiting for the episode, feel free to head back here following your relevant airdates and share your thoughts as well! Oh, and don’t forget to keep refreshing this page to view the very latest comments!
