50th Is "The Day Of The Doctor" (And Is 75 Minutes)

Wasn't she still in America shooting "The Office" back then?
Nope. The Office wrapped in mid-March and "The Day of the Doctor" started in April. In fact, I think there's a photo of the actress in question at the readthrough for the special, though she had other work in the building and may just have been stopping by to catch up with old friends.
 
TBH, I doubt this is true. It's OK Magazine for fucks sake. But if it is true, that would be lovely. If true, I wonder if John Barrowman would also return? I'd love to see his reaction to Smith.

If I remember correctly, it was stated that she was in the photo from the readthrough where Tennant and Smith have their arms around each other's shoulders (but you could only see her shoulder or somesuch) and that she was at the readthrough to sit in for Billie Piper who was unable to make it.

Now imagine how much better (and how much more respectful) it would look with three real Doctors there.
 
Does no one realize that was a spoiler? That someone may not want to know it was the person taht they say might be returning as a companion?

Surely Spoilers are things that are factualy correct?
In the off chance that it is, isn't it better to protect those who may not want to know? I know the lack of info of any sort for this special makes for any info about it desirable, no matter if its meant to be a good or a bad spoiler.
 
Is that Eccleston's U-boat coat that Hurt is wearing?

It looks great, but I have to agree with a few others. Why the hell didn't they get McGann?

Because, as has been suggested, THIS Doctor has done some bad bad things. So bad that the Doctor has locked him away, disavowed him, stripped him of the name Doctor, should that be done to McGann's Doctor? I think some fans would throw a fit.

And besides, then we wouldn't have John Hurt...
