Here you go

Okay my sister currently lives with me and I turned her into a Whovian. Well what a change I have made! Remember how I used to dislike Tennant's Doctor? I set aside all my dislikes because of the fandomism and I have fallen in love with this amazing Doctor. No not the IN LOVE thing but in a way I can't descripe it. He is amazing and brilliant. Like a big brother and even fatherly figure. Awesome doctor and everything packed in one!! He climbed highly on top of my list closely behind my Doctor Tom Baker Chris Ecclestone climbed up as well because I loved his Doctor madly too. I'm convinced if he did another season he would have become more popular.
In the meantime I also can say I am nearly done with watching the classics. I am watching the last Doctor I had to watch now and that is Pat Troughton. So far all classic Doctors have grabbed my heart and I loved them all. One less than the other of course but still.....

In June I went to Birmingham (UK) to attend my first CON ever! I met young Caitlin (young Amy) and oh dear she is so extremely shy!! Also the two ladies madame Vastra and Jenny. And Neve (Vastra) is a great great GREAT personality!! I asked them questions and I got my picture taken with the two of them. I also met the guy who played the Ice warrior/Tree (Christmas special Doctor and the wardrobe)/Minotaur (god complex) and this guy is tall!!! I'm pretty tall myself for a female but I had to look straight up. And on the last day Catherine Tate came. This is the day I never forget ever!!!! I told her that I this was one of the happiest days in my life and she gave me this big bearhug and asked my name. She asked if I was at the autograph session which I was. And she remembered my name!!!! Normally when you participate in the autograph session you are only allowed to have one item personalized. She did two I got my pic taken with her as well. Next year I will return definitely!! I have turned into such a Whovian it is almost like a lifestyle for me now

This song has become special to me because at the CON this song was played very often and we walked in a line after each other and swinging the arms and legs singing this.

Great story Vanessa! When's the next Con?

 

[Mrs Gil-Galad Took]

The date is not known yet but probably around June again I think. I went to the Starfury CON. The guy who is organizing this wants to have bot Matt and David at the next CON. But there are more CON's every year. One advantage is that I live close to the UK so I'm there in 45 till 60 minutes flying

Vanessa that is so cool! you must have posted on FB about Catherine Tate cuz I remember that, very neat!!!

And I agree, Tennant is an awesome Doctor -- but I have loved all the modern doctors. I didn't see the classic ones, but I imagine they are the same, wonderful!

Thanks for the link! That was pretty good, but slightly dissapointing. I was kind of hoping for actual footage from the special. Oh well, there were Doctors! And Racnoss! And a Weeping Angel shoving Seven!

I know!!! I was disappointed as well. I mean it looks amazing but I was hoping for some footage from the special!!

Yes Inky that's right I posted it on FB as well. It still makes my day when I think back at that time. And you are so right. Actually it is almost impossible to love only one Doctor because when I watched the classics I really enjoyed all Doctors. Everytime one Doctor regenerated it was immidiatly if no other actor took over because I kept on feeling this is the Doctor. Right now I absolutely love Pat Troughton's performance as well. I can see why he actually was the most important Doctor in the show. It was the first regeneration ever to happen and if he failed the show would have been doomed. But he didn't fail. Same with Chris E in 2005. If he didn't play the Doctor so well and believable the show might not have continued after season 1.
So far my fav classical Doctors are Four (Tom Baker) Five (Peter Davidson) Seven (Sylvester mcCoy), Three (Jon Pertwee) Two (Patrick Troughton) One (William Hartnell) and Six (Colin Baker). I left Eight (Paul mcCann) out because he only did a movie and I still have to listen to his audio performance. I loved him in the movie though

That. Is. Awsomeatic.

I too have been recently watching the originals and I have thus far enjoyed them very much.

I also went to Barnes and Noble on Saturday and they had a whole Doctor Who display table with a lot of very cool and expensive things on it. I bought a mini sonic screwdriver. I also enjoyed watching the people who looked at it- there was a group of people who sounded very geeky and went on about the things at the table for several minutes, several quieter people like myself, and even a boy who seemed to be trying to drag his girlfriend into it. It was especially amusing to see them hit the buttons on the plush Dalek and TARDIS toys. xD

OMG girl!! in my small hometown in Holland we have a small store where they sell merchandising from Star Wars etc. They also have some Dr Who stuff and I bought myself a Tardis cookie jar and a Dr Who anniversary shoulder bag with the faces of all 11 Doctors on it!! The guy was amazed how much I knew from the show. He said I was a real fan and my sister was like oh yes she is! They are going to get more stuff in the near future and I'm sooo extremely excited!!

Do you watch it on daily motion? I did and still do. Nothing better than having some coffee and do some cross stitch while watching the classics

I've seen those cookie jars. These displays make me wish I had a couple hundred dollar gift card.
I frequently discuss Doctor Who with my cousin via facebook chat (I was the one who got her into watching it too) and we share thoughts and theories and crazy ideas about the show. It makes me very happy that I have a cousin who's as much of a geeky nerd as I am....

Yes, dailymotion is lovely. I often watch a few of the older episodes on Sunday afternoon when I don't usually have homework.

 

[Mrs Gil-Galad Took]

Did you start with the first Doctor? I started with Four and then finished it till the last episode of 7. And then I watched all 5 seasons of Three and then the other two

It's so much fun to talk about the show. My sister was watching youtube today and was -of course- checking Dr Who clips. I can talk hours and hours about it. It feels so good to be a crazy nerd or a complete geek

I started out watching the new seasons of Doctor Who and I've been working my way back to the old ones. I watched new seasons 2-4 first, then I went back and watched the first season, then the fifth season, then I kind of started watching the old episodes and the new ones at the same time. When I went back to watch the old seasons I figured I might as well start from the beginning so I started watching those with the first Doctor. I'm probably going to end up skipping around quite a bit though.


I talk to my cousin about it for hours. She's only seen the newer seasons, but I've told her some about the older ones. We have so much fun sharing stuff with each other about it.

 

[amdd97]

I am the same way about talking about the show. When you get me started I will never start.

Yes Mowsie you can skip a bit and it is not a bad thing because the first two Doctors are actually tough to watch thanks to the lost episodes I had a tough time with watching those as well. Doctor 4-7 went smoothly and Three for a large part as well.

I can talk for hours and hours about it! I talk with fellow Whovian friends and my sister is now also warming up for Dr Who so life is good hehehehehhehe! It is like a lifestyle for me and I'm happy it's almost November! This means a few more weeks till we FINALLY see the Day of the Doctor! The return of Tennant and one of the final episodes of Matt

It is a bit irksome that some episodes aren't there, but I'm glad to know that it gets easier.

I don't know how (I lack cable) but I am going to see The Day of the Doctor when it comes out. I don't care if I have to watch a fuzzy version taped with a shaky camera off of somebody's TV- I WILL see it right after it comes out. If I don't I will become a hermit until I can see it.

You can go see it at the theaters on November 25, Monday, two days after it airs on TV. They are still selling tickets. Follow the link below

Enter your address on the map to see which theater near you is showing it. 3d tickets are about $15.00. Time to start doing some babysitting!

Okay, I found one. Now how am I going to get my parents to drive me to Tinseltown on a Monday evening? Why MONDAY?
I think I'm just going to have to convince people to let me sit at their house and watch it live.

So, anybody on here live in the Ohio/PA region of the United States of America, Earth who would be willing to let me come to their house for an hour and a half and watch the 50th? I don't even care if you're home. Leave your keys under the doormat. I won't touch a thing except the TV. And maybe popcorn.

 

[Mozart the Meerkitten]

So, guess who I was for Halloween? That's right, the Tenth Doctor. So here, have some pictures of me in my Awsomeatic costume. Pictures taken by my Awsomeatic mother who stood out in the rain to take pictures of me running beside our library while civilians looked on in confusion. (The two bottom pictures came out blurry, so I edited them and make them look cool. xD)

 

[BarbarianKing]

Cool 10th Doctor, Mozy! Unfortunately I don't live there. I would definitely let you come to my house and have the popcorn and Icee's ready for you. I used to live in Hershey, PA a long time ago but it still is not very close to you.

 

[Mrs Gil-Galad Took]

Over here in Holland they don't show it on tv or in the theaters BUT I receive BBC 1 so I can watch it anyway I'm extremely excited about it. I do hope that my hopes won't be in vain and that the special will be any good. I just can't wait. I'm so excited!!

Cool pics Mowsie!! I plan on buying Ten's Trenchcoat for Christmas but it is still a bit expensive though. But I love the Trench
