Post news RSS Classic Doctor...on the 23rd ?!

Just two days. The Day of the Doctor. 5oth anniversary special.

Posted by on

Who would you be surprised to see in the premier this 23rd?


I was browsing giantfreakingrobot.com when I spotted this:

"The wily trickster in question is none other than Tom Baker, beloved by many for playing the be-scarfed Fourth Doctor from 1974 – 1981. The official word has been that The Day of the Doctor would feature only three incarnations of the Doctor: the most recent two — David Tennant and Matt Smith — and the mysterious Doctor played by John Hurt."...But then along comes Tom Baker, that cheeky bastard, and he tells The Huffington Post that “I am in the special. I’m not supposed to tell you that, but I tell you that very willingly and specifically; the BBC told me not to tell anybody but I’m telling you straightaway.”

OMG. Would be awesome. Of course:

"he could just be yanking our respective chains. Hell, he could be yanking our chains at the request of executive producer Steven Moffat himself."

Soon, fellow whovians, very soon.

I hope this is true so we can have more than one good incarnation of the Doctor on screen at the same time. David Tennent and his Mary Sue was only brought back to make his fangirl's panties wet.

Tom Baker seemed to have the most fun of all the Doctors.

The 50th anniversary special was better than I expected. Moffat managed to make the Tenth Doctor and the "Bad Wolf" bearable, John Hurt was funnier then expected as the "War Doctor" and it retconned Russel T Davis's fan fiction level aspects of the "New Who era" show.

The War Doctors indignation at 10 & 11's screwdriver pointing was awesome.

"And that’s without mentioning a gratuitous, but utterly delightful final cameo that pays tribute to arguably the greatest Time Lord of them all."
