Also for the monsters show what story’s they were in and if they changed there designs show the design features and facts and what powers they have and show what there story’s are in chronological order! And also I want them to show the lost stories from 6th and 7th doctor! What do u want in this book?

January 6th, 2013 - 9:11pmIf it’s going to have a page for every single episode it’s going to be a very thick book

Connor
January 3rd, 2013 - 10:04amHopefully it’s massive! If it’s going to show 50 years of doctor who history and characters and villains then it’s going to be huge! Hopefully 600 pages lol! What features are they showing in this book? If anyone knows or has any ideas on what they think is in it please fill free to tell me. And hopefully they have every single episode from classic to new series! And show all the tardis interiors including the 2nd tardis interior,library,clothes room,study,kitchen,hart of the tardis and all the companions rooms! And much much more!

December 31st, 2012 - 10:59pmDo u guys think it will be like the ultimate monster guide?tell what u guys think.hopefully they will show all the episodes on it in chronological order from the unearthly child to the 2013 Christmas special! Also I hope it will be showing all the monsters from classic to new series and put tones of Infomation and show lots of pictures and Infomation about the story’s that the creature stared in and facts about it! Also I want them to do the same with the companions! If its going to be a encyclopedia of the 50 years of doctor who!
Connor
December 31st, 2012 - 11:06pmAlso they need to put all the tardis interiors inside and show all the rooms in it that they showed on tv like the pool and all the companions rooms and all the tardis console rooms designs including the 2nd controll room! I would also love to see if they put in the lost stories of the 6th doctors 23rd season and the seventh doctors 27th season! Also if they could talk about the time war and how the 8th doctor regenerated! And for each episode they should put a rating! So what’s you’r thoughts on these decisions and what do u want in the book?
Connor
December 31st, 2012 - 11:10pmHow many pages do u think this books going to be? I think abou 600/700 pages and it’s going to be a big book as well! So if it’s going to fit 50 years of doctor who’s history then about 600/700 pages long! What’s your thoughts guys?

DoctorWhoFan101
December 31st, 2012 - 10:01pmI imagine it’ll cost a fair bit of money. Seeing as it’s got everything jam-packed into it. Although, we’ll have to wait for the price, I guess.
That Snowman over there
December 31st, 2012 - 2:06pmSounds good.:D
Not so keen on the cover though. 😕
That Snowman over there

McGann is the Doctor
December 31st, 2012 - 3:17pmAre you kidding me ? The cover is brill ! Not a FATLEK in sight and, for a change, they have the actual Doctor !
drjakeyoung
December 31st, 2012 - 1:29pmi really want this and the 2014 annual when it comes out
Tardis’nt
December 31st, 2012 - 1:03pmi like the look of this, they could have put another classic monster on the cover though, the dalek looks very strange in front of the new series monsters!
TheWhomobile
December 31st, 2012 - 1:13pmI think it looks quite good considering its age, it hardly looks dated at all which goes to show how they could have used them more in Asylum if they had wanted to.
duckter who
December 31st, 2012 - 11:12amthe doctor has a wonky head
Mr Evil Fez
December 31st, 2012 - 4:11pmMaybe its flipped?

December 31st, 2012 - 10:03pmEither way, I wouldn’t have noticed it until you pointed it out…
BisonTime
January 6th, 2013 - 9:41pmOr maybe its how he posed for the picture, you never know with the doctor
TheWhomobile
December 31st, 2012 - 10:59amThink I’m going to get this, especially considering this encyclopaedia includes classic stuff as well as new who stuff. And I love the cover with the Hartnell Dalek on the front!

December 31st, 2012 - 10:27amSo gonna get this. This looks totez amaze.
Doom Dalek
December 31st, 2012 - 10:31amIkr I Hope they do a profile of Donna I really liked her
king kong loves PSY
December 31st, 2012 - 3:17pmSeriously I hated Donner
So does my dad
She was the worst companion
Brother of the Daleks
January 2nd, 2013 - 1:22pmDonna was alright, until Russel T Davies turned the character into a huge deus ex machina. Besides, Rose, Adric, and Mel were definately worse!

December 31st, 2012 - 10:25amI’m Gunna Get This
oscarwho
December 31st, 2012 - 10:22amwow i love the cover it has rerto and mordern doctor who and just fits in
Connor
December 31st, 2012 - 10:11amWill this be like the doctor who ultimate encyclopedia? Will it have all the classic and new monsters and for the cyberman will they show like all the story’s give a little Infomation and about the monster and the design? And for the doctors will they show all the tardis interiors and all the doctor who episodes from classic and new and also all the companions from classic to new? Hopefully this will be worth it I hope so!
BisonTime
January 6th, 2013 - 9:43pmerm nearly all the Classic monsters returning to the show have had a revamp, Daleks have changed, Sontarans have, and the main ones with the main change were the Silurians.
