Happy Birthday, Max the Mug -

Stop pretending you don't. Now open the doors.

MeechMunchie · #32 10-10-2011, 08:10 AM

*BZZT!*

The correct answer was "Yes he has".

***Wil*** · #33 10-10-2011, 08:28 AM

I don't remember any characters called 'Who'.

MeechMunchie · #34 10-10-2011, 08:49 AM

Doctor Who? Ring any bells?

***Wil*** · #35 10-10-2011, 08:57 AM

The programme starring the character called only 'The Doctor'?

MeechMunchie · #36 10-10-2011, 09:01 AM

Popular misconception is still popular opinion. Outside of the programme he is almost universally referred to as 'Doctor Who' to avoid confusion with, y'know, every other fictional doctor.

Or to put it another way, You know what I'm bloody talking about.

***Wil*** · #37 10-10-2011, 09:09 AM

Oh, well, if it's both popular and an opinion, I stand down entirely. Can't argue with such forces.

MeechMunchie · #38 10-10-2011, 09:20 AM

There are some things that just aren't worth arguing with.

T-nex · #39 10-10-2011, 01:35 PM

Such as your face!

MeechMunchie · #40 10-10-2011, 02:08 PM

You are evidently one of them.

STM · #41 10-10-2011, 02:23 PM

I'm a dalek.

Bullet Magnet · #42 10-10-2011, 06:06 PM

What's happening?

Well, actually, Christopher Eccleston was credited as 'Doctor Who'. Tennant objected and it got changed to 'The Doctor' when he took on the role.

***Wil*** · #44 10-11-2011, 01:01 AM

But he wasn't called Who in the episodes. Credits aren't canon, unless there really are such words tunnelling through the time vortex.

He wasn't definitively not called 'Who' though.

We'll just have to wait until Matt Smith decides to quit before we find out.

***Wil*** · #47 10-11-2011, 02:06 AM

We're going to find out when he quits?

***Nate*** · #48 10-11-2011, 05:10 AM

Oh, I forgot you haven't seen the second half of this year's season yet. Ignore me.

***Wil*** · #49 10-11-2011, 06:03 AM

O_O

I'm guessing "the oldest question" is actually the most obvious one, then.

Bullet Magnet · #50 10-11-2011, 06:21 AM

Well we never found out how Ten pissed off Queen Elizabeth I, unless they put it in a book (the books' canonicity is fuzzy).

***Wil*** · #51 10-11-2011, 06:31 AM

And I've been dying to find that out.

Yes we did. He mentioned it to Dorium while they were in the TARDIS.

Bullet Magnet · #53 10-11-2011, 02:10 PM

He did? God, that was a busy episode. I need to watch it again.

STM · #54 10-12-2011, 12:02 PM

Which one was that?

Bullet Magnet · #55 10-12-2011, 03:45 PM

Must be the last one. Dorium didn't have a scene in the TARDIS in his other two appearances I know of.

enchilado · #56 10-22-2011, 10:44 PM

He also mentions when he arrives on the Ood planet in The End of Time that he had, er, invalidated Elizabeth's nickname.

StrangerEastwood · #57 10-22-2011, 10:49 PM

I have missed so much lately, havnt seen anything since When a good man goes to war, or whatever that episode was called.

Pilot · #58 10-23-2011, 04:04 AM

Sorry Max, it took me a while to find a special "select" gift for you. It lies in between 24:52 and 24:56

OH LOOKS LIKE I WAS RIGHT. Yawn.

I didn't predict it, if only because I didn't see it as being important or interesting or relevant to anything much beyond having a nice pointless mystery.

And I prefer not to see The Doctor as being actually important on a cosmological scale. Though I concede that the current and immediate previous show runners clearly don't agree with me on that one.
