Hmm. But still, I'm bored of seeing the current Vortex. There are many variations people have invented and whatnot. Even if it is just a redecoration of the current Vortex, it'll still be what I want.

Apart from the opening credits though, it's not really seen, so it's not such a big deal.

I hope they keep the same sonic screwdriver prop though, I love that thing. Maybe towards the end, Tennant's Doctor should be tweaking it to look like the one that River had.

IMO, he should get a totally new screwdriver, and tennant should be made to look younger, since he gives it to River Song.
I still can't read peoples minds, nor can I read peoples computers, even worse, I can't combine the two to read what is going wrong with your BC install...

Remember, River said that he had the same face, ecept he was "older", not younger. :P

Meh, can't complain for 1 mistake. Of course I meant older (see my previous posts). Especially not for being up for more than 20 hours at that point. ;)

I have had bad tidings with Forbidden Planet. One of my Crimbo pressies ( http://www.forbiddenplanet.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=4_467&products_id=43440 ) according to Forbidden Planet, gave no indication f being out of stock. I then learned after Christmas that they come out in March (http://www.artasylum.com/blog/2008/12/ship-date-update/#more-223) so I say just be wary of Forbidden Planet.

But yay! I want it! I never rember the future sonic being red/orange though...

That isn't Forbidden Planets fault. It was supposed to be out in December, but Art Asylum have pushed it back to March.

Then Forbidden PLanet could do with updating their website then.

I still don't remember the tip of the Future sonic being orange though...

Red, it was at times, not when in use, but you could see that it was red, I'm guessing that it's the "Red settings", whatever that is.

Wow its been ages since i was here, nice to see dr who is still being talked about. Was pleased with how the xmas special turned out and i loved the whole Cyber King thing, pure brilliance. Not too taken with the new doctor tho, he looks weird. But there again i thought the same thing about David Tennant when i first saw him lol, and look how wrong i was in the end, never judge a book by its cover.

Think the title sequence should stay the same, maybe tweak it slightly or even add the face in, like we used to have in the old series, and if they could have that for Tennants last outings as the doctor then that would be good, but i think the vortex should stay the same, still going to miss Tennant for me hes right up there with Tom Baker and John Pertwee.

I think they will tweak the music, like they did when Tennant took over (ending of the last episode of the 2005 series).

Well, I've seen the inteview with Matt Smith on Youtube and he doesn't seem like a bad bloke. Just has a really crappy hairstyle.

I think they'll change the way he looks for the show.

As for the votex. Change it and the whole opening credits, but of course keep the music :D The one from the movie was the BEST.

Personally I think, John Barrowman would make a gread Doctor Who if he didn't have an american accent and wasn't Jack.

They really odn't have a need to change the Vortex, so I don't think they would... they'd have to pay money to have it redone when they could spent that money on the actual contents of the episode.

I think the new guy will be Ok so long as they do something with that damned hair.

And still slightly on topic:

Yeah but the opening looks crap atm. That's why it needs to be changed. It needs to do the music justice. Although it was slightly different on the latest episode.

Lee Evans is to star in the upcoming Dr Who special with Michelle Ryan (Zoe Slater in EastEnders and "Bionic Woman")!

Some of you might know Michelle Ryan in a better role in the mini series Jeckell. And as the arch enemy in Merlin (2008 series).
