Zainab Masood, more tabloid rumours

The sun says Zainab Masood from eastenders is going to play a villian in the new series, just to warn people to be aware but dont add it until we get a more reliable source.--Lerdthenerd (talk) 09:16, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

About Doctor Who in different countries

The series was also shown in Ukraine (twice on ICTV in 2008 and on QTB since February, 22nd 2010). Please, add this information to the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Severnyi (talkcontribs) 13:33, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is done.--Severnyi (talk) 00:20, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The Doctor is back: Easter 2010

The BBC has confirmed the return of the Doctor on easter 2010. - "New Doctor Who Trailer" (in Englisch). BBC. 2010-02-20. Retrieved 2010-02-20.{{cite web}}: CS1 maint: unrecognized language (link)--84.142.217.34 (talk) 19:43, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

And it looks like we have a target date for changing the logo - just after Easter, when the 1st episode has aired. - J Greb (talk) 12:02, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just for the record, BBC America announced (and it can be sourced) that the US will get the new series beginning on April 17. I'm not sure how that's going to affect what's going on here, but given the constant changes here and on the episode lists page, I thought a heads up was in order. --Drmargi (talk) 15:49, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Title Card

Hey, just to point out that the Title card is the one used from 2007, rather than 2005 is written —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mjohnson553 (talkcontribs) 18:29, 8 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As they're virtually indistinguishable, I think it would be too confusing to put 2007. In any case, it will no doubt be replaced with the Moffatt era title card when the new series starts.--Pawnkingthree (talk) 21:58, 8 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It should probably be changed now anyway, since the new logo is now is official branding for the series and is currently in use in advertisements. There are some remnant items with the old logo that came out in the last week or so -- a novel and an audio, plus Doctor Who Adventures magazine hasn't changed over yet -- but otherwise the new logo is in place. 68.146.81.123 (talk) 14:48, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
