FYI, Matt shaved his hair off for a role in some film. I wonder if he's going to have to wear a wig for the Christmas Special...

Yea it was for the movie "How to Catch a Monster" written and directed by Ryan Goslin. Apparently it was filmed in Detroit.

How was the trailer? Was it new?

How was the trailer? Was it new?

The Trailer for the 50th anniversary was new and exclusive to comic con. It was pretty bad ass and November cannot come quickly enough.

Also a little explanation about what Moffatt said at the panel. Apparently at the Sherlock panel someone posted audio from the exclusive comic con trailer online within 2 minutes of showing it at Comic Con after he specifically asked the audience not to. He told us at the Doctor Who panel that if the 50th trailer gets leaked, there will be no more exclusive comic con trailers. So basically one person screwing it up for everyone. Mind you, a lot of people waited in line for the Doctor Who panel for over 12 hours and were lined up outside the hall the night before.

edit: I just read that UK fans are pissed off because the trailer premiered at Comic Con first instead of in the UK. From what I am hearing, the trailer we got at comic con is different than what will be released to the public since they are still putting a different trailer together.

I'm hearing there is going to be a second trailer coming out this Saturday that will be released world wide. This trailer differs from the SDCC version because

If true, it supports previous rumors:

That it will feature a fourth Doctor that will be in the special. Most are saying Paul McGain right now but we will have to see

I'd be concerned if he threatened to push back the release of the 50th special because of a leak but... it's a fucking trailer.

I don't care if I see a single trailer between now and the 50th special, just gimme the goddamn special already.

I’ve got it on very good authority that eighth Doctor Paul McGann has filmed something for the Doctor Who 50th anniversary, but haven’t been able to verify exactly what.

Indeed, there are two particularly exciting possibilities, and it could actually be both. Or neither.

So, for one thing, I’ve heard repeated, low-level talk that all of the Doctors* will make some kind of appearance in the main 50th episode. I’m not taking it for granted, but if it did happen, this may have required some new filming from McGann.

Or maybe it didn’t, because… well, I was first told months and months and months ago of one way that old Doctors would appear in the episode that wouldn’t require any new filming on their part or the use of any old footage. More on that later at a later time, I think…

Concerning another McGann prospect – and this is the more interesting possibility, I think – I did, some time ago, get a tip-off that the actor will appear in a minisode prologue to the 50th special, and that this little film would feature his regeneration into John Hurt’s form. The idea, I heard, was for this to drop sometime in early November, either on TV, in cinemas or on the BBC website. Or all of the above.

At the time, I was sceptical, but more information has come to light recently which firms up McGann’s involvement in… something. And that something could very well be the minisode.

I’ll keep digging.

Haven't watched the ComicCon stuff, so if it's already mentioned, my apologies:

SFX report that:

The 50th anniversary episode of Doctor Who will be simulcast worldwide on 23 November (well, 23 November for most of us). Global broadcasters have agreed to show the episode at the same time to avoid any leaks and to celebrate the show’s anniversary. That means US viewers will be watching it in the middle of the day, while Australian viewers will be watching it early in the morning of the 24 November.

Not sure how much truth there is to this but we will see.

went to look up the guy the mentioned as being at the top of bookies' lists or whatever, and one of the most recent roles on his IMDB page was " World War Z - W.H.O. Doctor " which is an amusing coincidence

He was also in the Pompeii episode (father of the family) of Doctor Who back in the Tennant days which also featured Karen Gillan (Amy Pond) as one of the southsayers.

I hope they go with someone younger than him.

[Qeomash]

Would be hilarious if they were able to gather up as many of the rumor-mill possibilities and have them attend the event. Or, get them to at least all tweet something about having a BBC thing on Sunday.

Is the special today being simulcast on BBC America? Or do I left to the internet as a means to watch it.
