Kids and us looking forward to it. Fire lit and cosy in the lounge, ready for some scifi action! Please don't disappoint!
Is it juts dads that like it?
Just not getting it myself (not since Tom Baker!)
Yup, just working out when to time the takeaway run.
Not a massive Dr fan.
However, I did enjoy the series that Christopher Eccleston did. The best of he "new" Dr's.
I am looking forward to this one tonight, John Hurt should bring something to it.
Yep, looking forward to it.
Clara has really helped my cross racing with her phrase "run you clever boy, run", so when struggling it's on the hoof we go.
Afraid so. Just to see Amy I hope...
Worth watching
off to the cinema to see it with my kids ...they are slightly more excited than me
Its in 3D at the cinema
Arrrrr yeah. Amy, not my cup of tea. Be good to see Rose though 😉
Binerette number one is obsessed with Dr Who. She's been banging on about it all week, so we'll be watching 🙂
I'll be watching...son is off to see the 3D version at the local cinema
Getting a bit tired of Dr Who though...doesn't seem to live up to the hype/publicity for me. Maybe John Hurt will revive it. Preferring Atlantis which seems to be ditched this week 🙁
Arrrrr yeah. Amy, not my cup of tea. Be good to see Rose though

I love the pond, however I did marry a ginner so have history in that area.
looks good and a lot of hype, but how can you improve anything thats had 50 years of great shows, a difficult one.
Watched it from the very first episode up until Tom Baker, lost track after that, partly due to having a Saturday job, and getting home too late, and partly because it just became a bit of a joke, Peter Davidson, Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy just lacked that 'something' the character needed. Having a Director General at the Beeb who hated it didn't help, either.
Chuffed when it came back, with people who actually cared about it, and wrote decent storylines, got good actors to appear in it, and finally it had a budget that enabled it to have the SFX needed to get it away from the shonky wobbly studio sets and a quarry in Surrey, or wherever.
Really looking forward to tonight. 😀
Yep,was big fan as a kid so when I had kids I showed them the old ones. Then up pops Russell T Davies and Christopher Ecclestone and I get to do it all again.
Pizzas cooking, wine open, fire burning away - bring it on!
Seen absolutely nothing about Russel T Davis and his excellent writings, and updating the Dr Who format.
Cider. Check.
Tea in oven. Check.
Catching up with Misfits. Check.
Waiting for Doctor Who. Check.
Awaiting to read the inevitable, that was crap comments on STW. Check.
Awaiting to read the inevitable, that was amazing review on Den Of Geek. Check.
Tom Baker - job done - happy man 😀
We loved it!
Tom baker - brilliant
Round of applause at the the end for this house. Well done BBC.
Rose looks ropey
Just brilliant.....
Ace so many little hints of old shows.
We’re all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?
The Doctor
Ropey Rose....yes please
Bloody excellent! Round of applause from me too. Really well done, and Hurt was on good form. Nice little jibe at the Americans not getting their hands on time-travel technology that made me laugh.
And Clara... (Goes for a quiet lie down in a darkened room).
Oh, and Tom Baker, still mad as a bag of owls... 😀
Clara (Jenna) is on BBC 3 now.
If I say much more I'll have to ban myself.
I can't warm to Clara, but then my formative years were formed around Jo Grant
Drac, is that a euphemism for something?
Very good. I like. 
Heh, my formative years were formed around Susan!

Well,
I thought it was cracking. Though in hindsight, they could've crossed out John Hurt and written Paul McGann, lost nothing and been ankle deep in fan excitement.
yeah woudve been great to see mcgann in there but still really enjoyed it, looked good in HD, JY how was it in 3D?
must admit Tom Baker was my 1st doctor so really pleased to see him in it at the end

the red button film is brilliant
I took my 3 boys to the cinema to watch it in 3d
Was fantastic 😀

As a fan of more than 40 years I thought tonight was utterly amazing. And very emotional too. Brilliant episode.
So do all the geeks out there have to buy new t-shirts with different numbers on them now John Hurt has bumped the last three up a number?
After they'd pretty much canonised JH being 9, on the aftershow party they reinforced 7, 8, War, 9, 10.
Don't get it. Liked it as a young kid but the recent generations... Its not how i remember.
Well, it wouldn't be, would it. 🙄
So he was only a Dr whilst he could remember he was, as funnily the time something was squiffy so he wont remember... Once he forgets itll all be back to square 1..
And how was it explained that the Tom Baker Dr was ancient now?
JY how was it in 3D?
No idea I only have one eye so it was 2D for me - I even asked in a thread about this- would I get a blurred image
Did get some extras before hand with some of the characters doing the usual announcements and the last two Dr but perhaps only 3-5 mins long but it was amusing.
Everyone seemed to like it but really I am unable to say much about it as i did not see it in 3D.
I enjoyed it but the obvious framing and presentation of scenes for 3d was annoying.
Really enjoyed it. Will probably try and catch it on iPlayer whilst I do my ironing later.
apparently not that much was 3D the odd tree some hand movements and the zygons - that report is from a 6 yr old mind.
Enjoyed the 'Five(ish) Doctors Reboot' more than the main episode, with its constant gags and cameos. Very well done.

Was caught watching it again whilst making breakfast - the rest of the family seem to have given up on trying to redeem me. 😀
Finally got time to sit down and watch it. The best episode I've ever seen!!!!! Think I may have to watch it again it was that good
Wife thinks I'm nuts but oh well
