# I said this during season 3
I have since come to realise this would be an awful idea. Not as bad as Robert Carly/isle would be though. Or that twat from Cold Feet.

# Exactly
It'd turn Doctor Who into a farcical comedy. Bailey can't do serious (which I'm quite glad for, as he's hilarious). There'd be no gravity to anything, and it'd be ruined.

# Right. Tennant, Eccleston, Baker, Baker, Mccoy, Hartnel, Troughton and Pertwee especially are/were all very gifted at acting with a bit of gravity
It's something that really hurt Davidson's popularity in the role, (the FAINTING.) and has basically been proven an essential part of playing the doctor.

# ooo
i like that for random newness. Yes please. Also the BBC have given him a season off (ie the year of specials) so he can do Hamlet at the RSC

# Nope
Tennant is out, I reckon. Also, whilst Jenny could be an excellent example of foreshadowing if Tennant does stay, she was brought back by the 'life mist' gubbins on the planet. I think.

# That's too Star Trek 3 for my liking
It was the same stuff that was escaping Tennant during his first crimbo special. If it really is the end for him I am beyond upset. Seriously.
(I helped save b3ta! brianftang www.brianftang.co.uk, Sat 28 Jun 2008, 20:44, archived)
# Possiblech
Though I'm not upset at Tennant leaving. That said, RTD leaving could improve his part drastically.

# All the publicity has Tennant with Elizabeth Sladen
and the rest of the gang together, despite the fact they didn't actually come face to face in the episode. I'm hanging onto that.

# Let's be realistic. If someone had already taken the part of and *played* the doctor we'd know it by now.
Plus the cut at the end was WAY too convenient. Don't forget the gratuitous close-ups of the hand and doctor River Song, either, she knows his regeneration so it's blatantly obvious he's staying.

I don't get your River Song point...

# The character elaborated on how she knew the doctor in this regeneration many years from now
if he dies here this not only screws over all levels of common sense it ruins the continuity made only two episodes ago.
(Guineapiggy Fuzzeh!, Sat 28 Jun 2008, 21:09, archived)
# Depends on the universe he was in.
And I don't remember her saying anything about knowing him in this form. I know about her being with him at the end of the universe though.

# Rewatch the first of the two parter, you'll see the references to this form
and I'm fairly sure they've not shifted universes either.

# They might just end it now tho
the writing is getting a bit tired at points
then RTD will bring it back in 5-10 years possibly?
(I helped save b3ta! epiphany coming live from sweden, Sat 28 Jun 2008, 21:05, archived)
# Well as the next season (with Stephen Moffat in charge and RTD leaving) has been confirmed
not to mention the specials between the two I'd say no.

And I don't mean the actor playing him, I mean he actually turns into Bruce Campbell and keeps playing the piano and advertising Old Spice constantly.

# They're not changing him surely? Thats quite a well kept secret if they are
I reckon he'll magically stay as Tennant.

Anyway, enough of that, for fucks sake get over to worldmusic.nationalgeographic.com/worldmusic/view/page.basic/home for Sigur Ros live followed by Bjork to raise awareness for the fucking up of Iceland. Message ends.

Why change the regeneration event now? Why? It'd be ridiculous. RTD giving the finger to all the fans as a final farewell.

Also, ta for the heads up, I love Sigur Ros.
