I'm going to have to wait for the DVD, darn it. I don't get BBC America on my cable, and I'm likely not going to be able to get to that theater showing as I'd hoped due to work. Shame, that; it would have been cool to have watched it on the really big screen.

Well you won't have too wait long for it. Amazon has the release date for 12/10
Hoping Amazon continues the trend of episodes being available the Sunday after they air with Day of the Doctor because I'm not going to be able to see it at all on Saturday.
Just a friendly reminder. Only 11 U.S. theaters will showing The Day of the Doctor on the 23rd, whereas over 400 U.S. theaters will be showing the encore presentation on the 25th. A lot of people in the U.S. (myself included) intend for their initial viewing to be in a movie theater, even if it is two days later. This means a lot of people will be trying to avoid major spoilers for two days after the simulcast showings. For those who wish to discuss The Day of the Doctor right after it airs, please be mindful of this thread's one request by being diligent about prefacing all spoiler-filled posts accordingly.

Sheeeet, how do think I feel? I gotta wait two more days. I'm not saying people can't discuss the special. I'm merely reminding people to preface any spoiler filled replies with warnings.
Speaking of which, how did this thread get 29 pages in without someone pointing out that I had misspelled the word "current" in its title (typo now rectified).

Picked up my ticket to see it in 3D on Monday. I'll be seeing it before then (probably more than once), but I couldn't pass up the opportunity. And I'm kind of curious to see who comes out to see it, since I don't personally know any Who fans in town.
I'm also happy to see that Uverse finally added BBC in HD to their line-up. And I'm glad I remembered to check before setting my DVR.
The missing episode rumor mill continues, according to an article quoted by DoctorWhoArchive.com:
Information has been provided to DWA which apparently provides a list of what episodes were recovered. This list was allegedly posted online in June of this year and comes from a very good source (not the original poster, if indeed there was one).
Certain aspects of this article were amended following an objection from a concerned party, the alleged original poster. We of course apologise for any distress caused. The list remains the same.
As ever this should all be taken as rumour at this stage, this time however we will be passing comment given the claims of the source.
List of Missing Episodes Found
The complete list
D: Marco Polo found in both Hong Kong and Ethiopia H: The Reign of Terror‘s two missing episodes found in both Hong Kong and Ethiopia P: The Crusade‘s two missing episodes found in Ethiopia T: Galaxy 4‘s three missing episodes found in Ghana U: The Myth Makers found in it’s entirety in Ghana W: The Massacre found in its entirety in Ghana Y: The Celestial Toymaker‘s missing episodes found in Ghana AA: The Savages found in its entirety in Ghana CC: The Smugglers found in its entirety in Ghana DD: The Tenth Planet episode 4 found in Ghana EE: The Power of the Daleks found in its entirety in Ghana FF: The Highlanders found in its entirety in Hong Kong GG: The Underwater Menace‘s two missing episodes found in Hong Kong HH: The Moonbase‘s two missing episodes found in Hong Kong JJ: The Macra Terror found in its entirety in Hong Kong KK: The Faceless Ones‘ four missing episodes found in Hong Kong LL: The Evil of the Daleks found in its entirety in Hong Kong NN: The Abominable Snowmen status uncertain, all episodes possibly found in Nigeria or Hong Kong PP: The Enemy of the World found in Nigeria in its entirety QQ: The Web of Fear found in Nigeria in its entirety RR: Fury from the Deep found in its entirety Hong Kong SS: The Wheel in Space, found episodes 1, 4 and 5 in Nigeria and maybe episode 2 in Hong Kong VV: The Invasion‘s two missing episodes found in Hong Kong YY: The Space Pirates missing episodes found in Hong Kong
88 Episodes Found of 106 Missing or +5 Episodes Found of 106 Missing (including The Abominable Snowmen 1,3-6?) or +1 Episodes Found of 106 Missing (also including The Wheel in Space 2?)
List of Still Missing Episodes
T/A: Mission to the Unknown (1) V: The Daleks’ Master Plan (1,3,4,6,7,8,9,11,12) NN: The Abominable Snowmen (1,3-6)? OO: The Ice Warriors (2,3) SS: The Wheel in Space (2)?
18 Episodes Still Missing of 106 Missing or -5 Episodes Still Missing of 106 Missing (excluding The Abominable Snowmen 1,3-6?) or -1 Episodes Still Missing of 106 Missing (also excluding The Wheel in Space 2?)
The piece at the site goes on to describe how/why these episodes may be turning up in all these far flung places. Worth a read.
As much as I'd love this to be true, wouldn't they have held up the release of the Tenth Planet DVD if they'd recovered episode four? I think it just came out Tuesday, and I'm waiting for my library to get it before I see it, but last I'd heard it still featured an animated final episode.
I really thought we'd get some more announcements in the week leading up to the 50th, but nothing yet.
Um. Power of the Daleks. The Highlanders. The Evil of the Daleks. The Abominable These are stories I have heard in audio format from audible.com and to see these in both audio and video is so cool. I so want to see Patrick Troughton in his first Doctor Who story. That would be awesome.
I was thinking the other day that if I could only pick one lost story to be recovered, I'd have to go with Power of the Daleks. First post-regeneration story, first Troughton story, a solid Dalek story - even if there are better stories, it's just too important historically to not want it found above all others.

The TV movie was the first episode I managed to sit through. And I quite enjoyed it.

The Doctor has met the enemy, and he is Thumper.
