Comments on: David talks 50th anniversary, Olympics controversy /2012/08/david-talks-50th-anniversary-olympics-controversy/ Sun, 05 Aug 2012 23:08:25 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: JC /2012/08/david-talks-50th-anniversary-olympics-controversy/comment-page-1/#comment-19558 JC Sun, 05 Aug 2012 08:38:33 +0000 /?p=56083#comment-19558 I can't tell what's going to happen at the moment. Doctor Who is a secretive show as it is with everything possible hidden until airdate, so the fact none of the Doctors appear to have any clue about returning doesn't necessarily mean that's the case. They're not exactly going to give anything away this early, so the best thing would be to convince fans they genuinely don't know anything. On the other hand, perhaps they actually don't know anything and none of the Doctors will be back, but I'm trying not to think about that. As for Eccleston, his return would be one of the bigger surprises of the 50th anniversary. He's maintained since he left 7 years ago that he didn't enjoy the process of making Doctor Who and that he definitely wouldn't be returning. As for the 10th Doctor not being included in London 2012, well...there are those that believe the world is coming to an end this year, perhaps that's what has started it... ;) I can’t tell what’s going to happen at the moment.

All we can hope is that Mr Moffat gives the fans something very special for the 50th.

Look at it in the same way as filming a Christmas special, that's what they're filming at the moment. Naturally though it's now when they'll be starting to ask previous Doctors if they'll return, but they won't start filming for quite a while yet. One thing I didn't find recently is an interview with Chris where he talks about DW and how he feels he should have stayed on for another series or two to develop his character. Is this an indication that he's in talks with Moffat to return? @Adam Towers

We can guess filming is taking place either late this year or early next, with Chris & David with various projects the BBC has to get them on hold within the next couple of months.
