I'm deciding between watching it live or waiting for it on screen with a bunch of friends.


I'm not sure I want to have "Night of the Doctor" style fangasm in public

Edit: For more first post value, I give this

The Wonder World theme on Countdown

We had to watch the 1996 Doctor Who TV movie last week in our movie club because one of the blokes was excited for the anniversary episode. Needless to say we wanted to kick that bloke out of the club.

This weeks movie, Unforgiven, should wash away the pain though. Probably watch it tonight.

Ballarat was shit for shopping. No range of stock.

Picked up the starter pack of Skylanders Giants at Kmart for $25 though :)

I'm going to go see it at the cinema. Unfortunately the closest one showing it is about 2 hours drive away.

But I'll have the Big Finish 50th anniversary audio play to listen to on the way ;)

My Wii U froze three times today. The third time was the sixth or seventh time in the less-than-two months I've had it. It's always up-to-date and where I've had other consoles for years without issues.

Nintendo's customer service hours and my schedule don't align until Tuesday.

Yep. I'm actually in Ringwood now, but until April (when I separated from my wife) I was in Mitcham for about 12 years.


And yes, I feel utterly lame in not having been able to make it to a MelbGAF beer-up yet. It always seems to fall on a week when I'm a single dad :(

There's a few things that have release this week worth watching:

Night of the Doctor - a short 7 minute webisode starring the 7th doctor.
An adventure in space and time - a docudrama on William hartnells stint as the first doctor (which is what we've been talking about in this thread as it's quite emotional!) 2 hours in length
And the last one I forget it's name, but is quite a decent BBC doco on dr who, 2 hours in length


And then tomorrow's 50th anniversary movie length ep

Greetings once again AusGAFers. Any good deals for PS4 games floating around yet? Given some of the games have already been released I was kind of hoping Big W or Target or Kmart would have something in their last catalogue, but no such luck.

Man it feels like yesterday I was up at 5am watching a shitty stream of Matt Smith's first episode

Target/Kmart/Big W will have them for $69 I expect, since that's the price of the X1 games.

And as always, kill Hitler avoid EB.

So weird to see how popular Dr Who is these days. And how well the BBC is treating it.

This is how the BBC (when they were in their "we hate Doctor Who" phase) thought they should celebrate the 30th Anniversary (It was also 3D)

Its about 15 minutes, and eyebleedingly awful. I've never been able to watch it for more than about thirty seconds.

Add a US address as your primary address, it won't let you buy otherwise.

I'm set till mid-2015 so will only be getting 1 more year to the total.

If you have friends in the Us, get them to buy the codes from bestbuy, target etc.

I can't wait for this 50th anniversary of Doctor Who to come. The sooner it ends, the sooner people can stop talking about Doctor Who.

I don't dislike Doctor Who, don't see the fuss.
