- Thread starter StCoop
- Start date
OMG did that make it into the movie because it bloody better have....... Now I want the official TARDIS to do that for a moment or two
I just watched the film this evening and unless it was cleverly hidden in the background, it wasn't in the film (but it might have been...?).
That said, I think it was reported that it's part of the upcoming season.
I think they'll just have or already filmed Ncuti do a 30 second ad.
"You can see me in the Warner Bros "Barbie" out in theaters now and join me next year as I play the 15th doctor......"
Ahem......

Ah, love The Happiness Patrol
With how the movie is doing it should be Bad Wolf filming a promotional and publicity campaign for Doctor Who.
While I believe Doctor Who is covered by Equity, not SAG-AFTRA, and Equity legally cannot honor the SAG-AFTRA strike, I really don't think RTD would put Gatwa in a position where he has to be perceived as crossing a picket line, especially given the Disney+ streaming role in Who's future and the fact that streaming residuals loom large in the causus belli of the strike.
Point is, Bad Wolf probably could shoot some promotional stuff, but it would be a really bad look right now.
^ I didn't intend that as a serious consideration, I was just trying to make a comment about the fortunes of the movie and that the permit specifically states the filming was for the promotion of said movie. That said, the sign says filming was for July 11 and the strike didn't occur until July 14 so I wonder if well ever see the fruits of what they were doing.
It was the same day as the UK premiere, that the cast all attended. In fact, they moved the box to the red (or was it pink) carpet, in time for it.
I am amused how this movie is polarizing people and bringing out the worst in people, revealing all the people we should avoid
I really wanna see Barbie.
Kandyman for the next series please!
One of my all time favourite stories. So quotable and utterly unique in the history of Who.

And you can thank that story for the prop being repainted the wrong color*, as season 26 exemplifies.
(Yep, "The Happiness Patrol" was the final story filmed 
)* but being late-80s, anything to be more "garish yet somehow only slightly off-point" was the norm. Amazed that Colin's Doctor's TARDIS wasn't given that ghastly teal-blue day-glo hue to go with the coat... but I digress.

*** caught that one in real time, nah nyah-nee nyah--nyah!

I'm just hoping this is the first new costume of Series 15.
Why does this all feel like it's five years away?
Will see if it's any good but I'm definitely curious.

Seriously? Anyone who's been to the NC17 sites have seen that ten thousand times over already, and more. Or any bog-standard drama.
Am curious as well. How his persona manifests and the tone/quality of the scripts. Classic Who, for the most part, treated children with having higher intelligence than toddlers with the baby babble talk. What defines a kid show is definitely radically different, even compared to season 17 when even the stars in commentaries and documentaries were saying they were catering to 6 year-olds and even said in season 18 commentaries and such how they were not keen on the show being retooled to an older audience. They'd really have a conniption over season 1, 7, and so on... even then, Classic Who wasn't generally inaccessible to younger kids and seemed to appeal solidly to most ranges of audience. (Season 18 is another story, and season 26 is definitely one the kids aren't going to care about. But by season 26, not just due to being placed opposite a popular show, some still and arguably not wrongly that the show had run out of steam by 26.)
So far, they've showed photos of Ncuti being in 1960s and 1970s garb, which hints for at least two stories directly, if not the overall tone of the show. So it might be earthbound again, and with a tighter budget since the off-the-rack stuff that Eccleston and Tennant wore wasn't just for alleged "accessibility", unless audiences really have changed so much that they'd freak out if a new incarnation wore a long scarf of the sort that was never shown before.
Not that it'll surprise anyone but Ncuti has finally officially come out. Thankfully it was through his own choice and not being pressured into it by alleged fans as we've seen with other people recently.
