February 8th, 2017 - 2:08pmBecause Capaldi is leaving in the 2017 Christmas special, does that mean the Series 10 boxset won’t be out till around this time next year? Makes sense to include a Doctor’s last story in the preceding series.
COMPLETE SERIES 10: 12 Episodes, 2 Christmas specials. My prediction.

December 11th, 2016 - 4:02pmI think this whole special will be a dream that Nardole has while under anaesthetic while his head is stitched back on…

December 3rd, 2016 - 2:29pmDoctor who went down hill in season 9 and this doesn’t really scream The Doctor….I sure hope season 10 turns out ok. i own every available episode from Hartnell to Capaldi and didn’t bother purchasing season 9 which is terrible.

December 3rd, 2016 - 3:47pmSeries 9 wasn’t brilliant but it wasn’t bad. Series 6 was worse in my opinion as there wasn’t one episode I liked in that series and with Series 9 I enjoyed episodes like Under the Lake/Before the Flood and Heaven Sent. I agree with you, there is nothing about this special that screams Doctor Who to me at all, if it wasn’t for the program’s name or the TARDIS I would mistake it for any other program if I was a person who had never seen the show before. There is also nothing to get me excited for it, Series 9 ended with no cliffhanger to get viewers excited for Series 10, I guess bringing back Gallifrey didn’t help as that story arc could’ve lasted a lot longer.
The Outcast
December 24th, 2016 - 6:50amI think that Doctor Who hasn’t felt like Doctor Who since series 7A. All 7B series and series 9 have done is look back at itself and say ‘Omg, I am so good’ and pander to a fan audience that is slowly getting fed up and turning their backs on it.

December 3rd, 2016 - 1:30pmThis had better not be the final cover, we have little 12 merchandise as it is.
The Outcast
December 24th, 2016 - 6:53amI think this is the Final cover, as the box art doesn’t say TBC or anything like that. It sorta reminds me of the series 9 and ‘the Husbands of River song’ dvd art, those where also just their promo posters.
booboo
December 24th, 2016 - 9:35amthis is the final cover but the comment was left when we just had the holding image up
JA
December 2nd, 2016 - 8:55pmSeries 10 boxset, will wait till then….or maybe the Series 1-10 boxset collectors edition with extra features! Am I hoping for too much?….probably

December 2nd, 2016 - 8:18pmI really hope that isn’t the final cover. I know it says TBC but with last Christmas and Husbands of river song it WAS these covers :’-(
