The 2011 Doctor Who Comic Relief Special encompassed all we've come to know and love in Moffat-based Who. Cheeky, almost NSFW humor and enough time-twisting tautology to implode a goat. Here at THT Worldwide we thought most strongly of Logopolis, the last time we had a nested Tardis situation. All we would then need is a white-draped mummy and the illusion would be complete.
We've put together a small gallery of caps from the special. Enjoy.
At the risk of burying the lead… Caps for A Christmas Carol are now online. There. A week on this latest Doctor Who Christmas Special resonates very well indeed. When we posted the gallery for this story we noted that it situated itself very nicely into the #2 spot on our Christmas Special countdown. But it's also our hunch that asking this question again come Anniversary time in 2011 will vault it into the top spot.
We've also posted (the inevitable) caps from Season 6 Trailer. Nothing to keep the appetites whetted more than an intriguing trailer. Spring (especially if you're up to your you-know-whats in snow) can't come fast enough.
What a grand experience A Christmas Carol was. It rises to #2 in our ranking of the 8 Christmas-related episodes to air so far and reminds us yet again what a treasure Matt Smith is.
Unfortunately owing to family obligations caps for this story will not be available until January 1st, but a gallery of images for A Christmas Carol are now online. We'll save our more complete thoughts until then.
Finally our long national nightmare is over… Alright it's perhaps, PERHAPS, a bit of an overstatement but an HD version of part wo of Death of the Doctor has finally sprung loose and the SD caps which were posted for that episode have been replaced by shiny new ones.
Happy (belated) Anniversary to Doctor Who, and not coincidentally to…. us. This site went live on November 23rd, 1997, which according to our math make us 13 years old. Awkward in human years, ancient by internet standards, but still kicking it for content. Many, many thanx for everyone who regularly uses the site and shares the content (particularly tumblr blogs… holy buckets do these sites love the Tour).
When the site turned five on November 23rd 2002 and adopted a continual display format, we passed the 10000 images in overall site content, with the 10000th image shown to the right. Last year when we turned 12 the overall image count stood at 76000. All year long the THT Brain Wizards hoped 100000 images was in sight, and now for the 13th Anniversary a site-wide Tour updates vaults the overall image count over 100000 images for the first time (nearly a 5600 image bump). Huzzah!
But that's not all…
Once again many thanx for your continued patronage for lo these many years. For the terminally curious, what was the 100000th image? Look to your left.
The (now) annual drumbeat for the Doctor Who Christmas special has begun with a teaser shown during the annual Children in Need event on BBC1. Even better for those of us caught on the left side of "the pond" was the news that BBC America will be showing both "A Christmas Carol" and this summers Doctor Who Prom on Christmas day itself. Huzzah!
Consequently, as is our custom, we're presenting a series on caps from a gorgeous 1080p trailer that BBC America published for "A Christmas Carol." It also happens to fit in nicely with our own site run-up to our Anniversary. Caps for the first trailer of "A Christmas Carol" are now online. BTW did you notice how Amy and Rory were dressed in the trailer?
Hurry though, this is a temporary collection just to get us by until the real thing drops on Christmas Day. As a reminder of this we've dusted off the countdown clock for the Christmas Special.
Can't wait!
