Yes I did, in AUSTIN TEXAS, I just saw the NEW Doctor Who special!! And it was WONDERFULL!!! Maybe BETTER than WONDERFULL!!! Oh the roomie is SO CLEVER!! So is the Doctor!!! The acting was GREAT, the aliens awesome!! There was some GREAT scenes with the new commander of U.N.I.T. The effects were to DIE for, and if you aren't in England I'm not giving away anything, and if you ARE in England, and want to talk, you need to do it so that we don't spoil it for the rest - maybe by P.M.!!

Hi ElicBxn.Glad to know you got to see it. It was a nice Easter treat for all us Who fans. Did you get to see the trailer at the end for the next special? The next one looks really creepy. I watched the Doctor who confidential on BBC 3 after the episode was over and it looks like we are going to have the next special in November and then a two part Christmas special. As far as what they have hinted at, the best is yet to come. Can't wait

That is true at least a few months wait is better than ten years. The next special is called "The Waters of Mars". Do you watch Torchwood? The third season is due for a summer airing and from what I have heard, it will be shown on BBC America at the same time it airs over here.

The Easter Special was pretty good tbh..I didnt get to see it on Saturday in WALES(which is where im from) as I was out, but I watched it on BBC iPlayer... The new commander of U.N.I.T. was If Im not mistaken, was the commander of U.N.I.T. in the Alternate Universe.... Anyway, Doctor Who is a good way of showing talented actors or established actors in the UK,and shows them to the world, dont u agree.

I have not watched Dr. Who in ages. I am glad he is still around, though. I may get to see this new one sometime. I take it your roomie devised a way for you to get a sort of preview peek.

Watched it once on tv and once on Iplayers and the little un has seen it about 10 times on iplayer now - she watched it every day when she was still on holiday from school! xxx

OKAY!!! BRITIAN then! Good grief! Its a much smaller island than North and South America and I try to be good about NOT calling myself an "American" since that could include Brazil, Argentina and Canada...

This year instead of doing weekly episodes, they are doing 3 or 4 specials, leading up to the Doctor's regeneration. They showed it Saturday night in England, and I saw it on Saturday night in TEXAS!!!

Are you talking about the Easter Special? I don't know what you mean by roomie. I thought it was brilliant. I loved Michelle Ryan in The Bionic Woman. She is a very good actress. I had hopes that she was going to be joining as the new doctor's companion. The whole thing was just magnificent. I have it on my hard drive to watch again when I need a fix.

yep, my roomie I knew she wasn't going to be the Doctor's companion from the promo stuff - could you send your source of the show to the next respondent, I don't have the link myself....?

It will be on the SciFi channel or BBCAmerica. But they haven't shown the Christmas special here yet, so....

Hi, ElicBxn. I don't know much about the Dr. Who series. But I'm very happy for you that you enjoyed it so much. Can I P.M. you anyway?? We can talk about Austin, Texas and the fact that it might be one of the greatest towns(cities) in America. I envy everyone who lives there.

I just found this category on the lot. I have been a fan of Dr. Who since I saw my first episode and followed it as long as I had television reception. Unfortunately, at the moment, I am without service so I am missing all my sci fi shows. Could you please PM me the link to watch the Dr. on my computer?

First you need the download program so you can get the torrent. This is the one I like the best of all the ones I have tried. http://azureus.sourceforge.net/ Then you have to go to the torrent site and enter Dr Who in the search bar. http://www.mininova.org/ I like this one alot. It posts stuff from television usually the same day it airs. It makes it easier to find the correct episode. http://eztv.it/index.php

I wish I had it, the roomie found it on a torrent, I am totally mistified by these things, (and my computer is 8 yrs old) so I just let her take care of these things. but the previous respondent also has it, maybe she can hook you up...

no, the regeneration is to happen at the end of the specials, so its still Tennant, and I didn't watch it on TV
