    This special was such a Chrsitmassy and CHrismas-spirited episode that , well, watching it in like June wouldn’t really be sensible.

    Any1 agree ? It isn’t meant to be a stand-alone episode, it is specificly a
    Christmas- Special. 🙂

    According to the great moff himself this years special will be set on earth and another planet it will also be another take in a clasical take on another classic Christmas tale! According to the daily star amy and rory leave at the end of the series! I don’t really believe this as Karen gillan says she’s back in series 7(could be a one/two ep appearance) but arthur is busy with theater commitments so could be true! Would hope they stay for at least one more series!

    There’s always iTunes. I mean, a digital copy doesn’t have extras or a title so it would work perfectly!

    If you thought the latest series had the magic to blow you away, this Christmas Special was blowing me away by 110/100 ! So to speak.

    But I enjoyed it much more than I enjoyed any of the last Series, apart from maybe the story before the Lodger, enjoyed that one greatly. Like any great adventure or movie, this Christmas Who has you following along with the story, trying to keep up with whats going on and also to figure out all the complex stuff that has to do with the situation. Because the situation in the story really matters. 😯

    on a quick note on saturday in the sun newspaper they’re giving free copies of
    the end of time part 1
    the end of time part 2
    the eleventh hour

    all on the 1 disc
    but be prepared to go to whsmith or morrisons/asda/tesco as you’ll have to get it from a shop
    if you get delivery they take months so get it from the shop

      No because it hasn’t been sent to us and it has the sites watermark on it. Unfortunately 2entertain dont consider this site significant enough to send information to even though it now get thousands of visitors a day.
