Whenever Tumblr twists something into an inexplicable abomination, it means that it's a hit.

Good.

I just knew 12 would be a Scot for some reason. Just had that gut feeling.

That's probably the Indian food.

No, it's Doctor Who has the Welsh madness, English brilliance, Scottish acting and the Cornish whatever the hell the Cornish have.

We should also get an Indian Doctor.

I mean, we basically control the towns of Bradford and Leicester and we're former British subjects (thank God that's over). We're allowed to be Time Lords.

Sure. Giants.

The Ark story (I think it was season 2, all the way back in Hartnell times)'s giant statue was probably built by a Cornishman.

I have a better feeling about this new Doctor than I did when Matt Smith was announced. If I recall correctly, when my wife and I first saw pics of him, it was something along the lines of "Great. Doctor 90210". Glad I was wrong about that, but I have always thought a slightly older Doctor was better. Except for Peter Davison. He was awesome as a youngish Doctor. My greatest fear about this prior to the announcement was that Moffat, who seems to cast mostly youngsters in his main roles, would foist "Doctor Teen Angst" on us. Again, glad I was wrong.

Moffat has always said he wanted an older Doctor - I was more concerned about the BBC.

How much do you wager someone suggested a young Doctor, so Moffat cast the second oldest out of spite?

Oh, I wouldn't bet on that, contrary as Moffat is.

I'm still waiting, though, for him to get on TV and say "HAHA! Just kidding. The next Doctor is really going to be Nicki Minaj!"

"Surprise! Matt isn't really dying!

...Why is no one laughing? LAUGH OR BE CONSUMED."

I'm not sure even Moffat is quite that evil. Maybe.

1.) This "Zoe Ball". Is she popular in the UK? If so, I'm afraid that all of your lives are forfeit.

2.) The panel of guests was terrible. Really.

3.) Peter Davison is fecklessly charming.

4.) Matt is the coolest human being alive.

5.) I don't see Capaldi, to be honest, but we can't really say yet.

She's a popular radio DJ.

And you leave Rufus Hound and Daniel Roche alone. They are comic geniuses. Althought I didn't recognise Hound without his facial hair.

Ah, yesterday I had no idea who Rufus Hound was. Yesterday TV Three decided that starting with series Four of Would I Lie To You? (but we call it Would I lie to You? UK because we had our own crappier version already), now I think he's pretty cool.

Me gusta.

A friend of mine does pretty much nothing during study except look at fan art of Doctor Who. I told her that they'd have already started with Capaldi as the Doctor. This was what we saw.

I don't understand why they made Tennant change his - his natural accent sounds better.

Some people find Scottish accents hard to understand. *stares at Americans*

Most thick accents are hard to understand. That extends to posh ones as well.

Oh shite really?

My experience of NS'ers as of late has left me a humourless jaded husk failing to see the joke in any post.

Which is funny, because NationStates is really just a gigantic joke Max Barry is playing on us all.

He's really Welsh.

Nah, he's Victorian.

I hope they do the Watcher again for the Christmas special, maybe turning up at the end of the 50th.

The Watcher is brilliant.

"I've been lying my ass off about the 50th for months." - The Ultimate Evil.

It is the 50th.

The opening theme plays.

Everyone is excited.

Suddenly, the fans are confronted with the greatest twist ever:

The special is 120 minutes of Tom Baker, Peter Davison, John Hurt, David Tennant, Matt Smith, Colin Baker, Paul McGann, Billie Piper, Sylvester McCoy, and Jenna Coleman dramatically riding around and English quarry on segways.

You had to say twist, didn't you? It reminds of my maths homework which, apparently, has a twist ending.

Then Jon Pertwee comes in.

Somehow.

I want a Doctor Who version of Mario Kart, where everyone is racing around in a TARDIS instead of a Kart.

That would be the absolute shit.

He survived the sinking of HMS Hood, he can find a way to cheat death and arrive for the 50th.

That would be the absolute shit.

One patters on a respectable speed without any flash, Two and Three spend the entire race smashing their TARDISes into each other, Four makes the TARDIS do a wheelie (somehow), Five has been kidnapped, Six refuses to race out of principle, Seven doesn't actually win but has planning this for centuries, Eight is distracted by his shoes and flies the TARDIS into a star, Nine is too busy brooding to race, Ten drops out of the race to flirt, Eleven pulls the wrong switch and blows everything up, and Twelve wins by default.
