Multiple endings for David’s last episode?

May 19th, 2009

tenth_doctor_dwmProducers are so desperate to keep the Tenth Doctor’s regeneration episode a secret that they’ve filmed several alternative endings to keep fans guessing right up until the very end, the Daily Star claims.

According to the tabloid, only one of David Tennant and Billie Piper’s recent scenes will make it to the final cut; the others were red herrings to ensure the plot doesn’t leak too early.

“How the Doctor goes out is a secret – even to him,” an ‘insider’ told the newspaper. “There are a few possibilities being filmed and the final one will be chosen later.”

    Gotta love more boxset extras. Does anyone know if we will get the specials as a boxset? Because I don’t know whether to just buy the Easter special on its own or wait…

    And if these are alternate endings, maybe Rose won’t be back at all! And her story won’t be mucked up. Don’t get me wrong, I loved Rose, but let’s not alter the time lines, shall we?

    I really hope they do multiple endings. That way we will be REALLY suprised by what happens, as too much shooting footage or pics will likely ruin the end of a really good run…

    I’m sorry, but this obviously isn’t the situation. There’s less than a week of filming to go, and I switched off when it mentioned Billie’s recent scene – it’s at the beginning of the last episode, meaning she has nothing to do with #10’s regeneration and won’t even know about it.

    Also, they’ve yet to film the actual regeneration scene and probably won’t until the end of the week. And we’ll see that scene anyway as RTD has said they won’t be showing the Console Room until Series Five.

    Is this the same RTD who said he would never bring the master back or the daleks weren’t coming back after series 3? He lies! its so he can hit us with the element of suprise! take anything RTD says with a pinch of salt

    I don’t get it… Yesterday, you were hoping for multiple endings…

    he was talking about RTD saying we wont see the console room, not about the endings.

    Well, we won’t be seeing the Console Room until next Spring, anyway. IIRC, the Series Five Production Team are still getting it ready for filming in July, considering Series Five will be the first series to be filmed in HD and, given the amount of wear-and-tear the Console Room has suffered over the past five years… it’s not exactly in the greatest condition for HD.

    No, he was talking about the multiple endings. You assumed he was talking about the Console Room, though.

    @TE

    Let me make this clear…YES! I hope they have multiple endings so we will be suprised. My next argument was your comment about the console room. What I was saying was if RTD says one thing, it is not gospel, he could be telling us a fib about the console room.
