Doctor Who Minus Context

Doctor Who, 2005: "The Doctor doesn't need to change their clothes to fit into a historical setting." Doctor Who, 2024, with a budget: "Eight hundred costume changes!"

@WhoMinusContext Here's a comparison: youtube.com/watch?v=PDmduR…

@JoshLFCanfield @DigiRanger1994 Oh well if multiple online rumours are saying it...

@DigiRanger1994 @WhoMinusContext Multiple online rumours

Yeah this is bullshit by the way.

@starwarsteen678 I believe this is a two-part special release by Big Finish due next year to end their Torchwood audio range. We don't know much else at this point but here's hoping for a bonus feature to go along with the release that's been hitherto absent... bigfinish.com/releases/v/tor…

New Torchwood series. It looks like a Torchwood legacy. I'm curious about what this will be.

I was going to do a thread comparing the 2016 upscale of the TV Movie to the 2026 4K release but... Oops.

@RobDaMugg @carolvorders @CrewkerneGaz So you don't understand consent, is what you're telling us.

@carolvorders @CrewkerneGaz You brag about sleeping with multiple men on rotation and won rear of the year a couple of times and proud of it. Funny you pearl clutching now.

Carol Vorderman has a blocked toilet and calls for a plumber to come and unblock it. The plumber is Reform UK’s Robert Kenyon who quickly identifies the cause of the issue, but it’s no easy task. {satire}

@SpyMast73050981 Wait... OH MY GOD!

today i found out how Paul McGann actually sounded during The TV Movie.

@WilliamWho27 I'll do it

I can believe the special being delayed due to actor availability with Billie being busy this year. But to believe it’s because they can’t find a new Doctor I find extremely doubtful. Perhaps big actors wouldn’t take it rn but you’d definitely find someone like come on now lol.

The fact it's The Sun is one thing, quoting "an insider" is another, but the idea that they can't find an actor to play the Doctor is such a crock.

@hxll_mxtt @chg3899 Weirdly, there's expanded media that could make it Tipple, Ainley or even Beevers.

@chg3899 As far as I’m concerned Ainley and Tipple’s master are one and I believe was the idea at the time as well.

Who voices The Master in the alternative opening sequence for the TV Movie? Is it Gordon Tipple or Geoffrey Sax?

@ShadowElg @PaulVanezis Absolutely, I don't want to come across like I'm going after anyone personally, though I've been critical of the use of AI in the previous releases. There's a lot of things I don't know about what goes on behind the scenes and I appreciate Paul's candour.

@WhoMinusContext @PaulVanezis has been very honest, open and fully transparent about the approach to the project. I absolutely recommend reading their posts and listening to the various podcasts. I absolutely can not wait until I receive my copy!🥰

Appears the TV Movie uses AI, but in a restrained way that respects the fidelity of the original footage. I'd rather no AI whatsoever, but if we must then at least it's being checked (which likely wastes more time than they save but hey ho)... reddit.com/r/gallifrey/co…

@WhoMinusContext Hey! This is my post, just to expand on it a bit. I think it’s fine here because it’s used on shots that are no longer than 2 seconds, and you’re trying to blend it with 4K 35mm stuff. Hearing them talk about it on the podcasts, it’s been done with a lot of thought I think.

I inherited the name Lovelace from my ancestor, Ada Lovelace, who literally invented programming. What kind of feminist doesn’t know the name of the most influential woman in tech history? This proves TERfs know nothing about feminism. Without my ancestor you wouldn’t be able to be transphobic on the internet. Be grateful.

Fuck, and it's only May.

HMV dispatched on Thursday and won't arrive until tomorrow. Amazon dispatched today and claims they'll deliver today.

@L_C_Hurst @TheCyberdevil @LDTrueBlue IIRC it's on the 2013 Specials steelbook

@TheCyberdevil @LDTrueBlue Also if they do plan on doing New Who collection sets, Night of the Doctor would be more suited to a Collection: Series 7/50th set.

A few extras not carried across to the new TV Movie 4K release. ♦️Who Peter: 1989-2009 ♦️Photo Gallery ♦️The Night of the Doctor (included on 2016 release)

Don't worry, I've cleaned my windshield
