[who45]

What happened to the Doctor when he, Tegan and Turlough went to the Eye of Orion to rest?

[grinner]

this is when Barusa played the Game of Rassilon? The Five Doctors?

[who45]

yes....

[grinner]

I think the Doctor stated that he felt something being ripped out of him... and the three managed to get into the TARDIS right when the TARDIS was pulled to Gallifrey

[who45]

yep...that about what I was looking for.

[grinner]

Who is George Trenchard and what was he in charge of? What happened to him?

[who45]

Had to look this one up:D Hope this covers your question.

Former British colonel and governor of the prison where the Master was kept. The evil Time Lord tricked him into believing he was helping unmask the enemy agents sinking ships in the British Channel, whereas they were actually trying to contact the Sea Devils. When Trenchard realized he'd been fooled, he tried to shoot the Master, but was killed by the Sea Devils who had taken over his prison

[grinner]

yep :P

[who45]

What did Morgaine do to Captain Laval?

[grinner]

isn't that Flight Leftenant Laval? If yes... she drains his brain of all useful knowledge of UNIT and ashes him

[who45]

yes..and yes. Got that one pretty quick didn't you.:D

[grinner]

well... you made me read that dang episode synopsis so many times... that I can remember pretty much how everything in it goes. :P

What is the Silurian Scientist talking about when he says this "When the apes used to raid our crops we used to use this. Millions were wiped out Now we could conduct experiments on this ape..."

the episode is 'The Silurians'

[Vikes4ever]

Wasn't it a deadly virus?

When I was reading the quote, I could just see the Silurian wagging his head as he talks with that high-pitch voice.

[grinner]

yep a deadly virus

[Vikes4ever]

What does Vorg call the Tardis when he first finds it?

[grinner]

What's a Tardis? oh... TARDIS... got cha...

I don't know... need to search.

[Vikes4ever]

Wait now......You don't mean to say that you always capitalize every letter do you? I know each letter in T.A.R.D.I.S. stands for a specific word, but that isn't something that most fans worry about is it? I'm asking sincerely, because I really have never thought that much about it. Is that a popular pet-peeve of which I'm unaware? :dunno:

[grinner]

If you ever go to some Doctor Who boards... like the BBC and OutPost Gallifrey, TARDIS is always capitalized. You will get jumped on at many forums for that.

There are even some that jump on you for putting a - between K9... like K-9

[who45]

Well I know I've put a - in k9 sometimes...glad I never did it on the BBC forum,lol.

[grinner]

oh and be sure to capitalize the K... and never call the Master... the Master... it is The Master. Just like it is always The Doctor and The Rani...

I have years of expirence with Whovians/Whoites... but the Whoites are more strict about it.

[who45]

K9 better?:D

[grinner]

I cannot find what Vorg called the TARDIS.

Yes, K9 is better :P

[Vikes4ever]

In "Carnival of Monsters", when he pulled the TARDIS<----:prop: out of the Mini-Scope, Vorg called the TARDIS a bit of "brick-a-brack".

On the K9/K-9 thing......
I can understand spelling TARDIS with each letter capitalized as being more "correct", even if the other way should be forgiveable, as long as "Tardis" is capitalized like a proper name.
As far as K9 is concerned, it's spelled "K-9" on his body, or K dot 9 to be more precise, and not "K9". So, if some fan on the BBC or Outpost tried to correct me on that, I think I might just have to slap him or her. It really doesn't bother me however someone writes the names as long as they spell them correctly and they're treated like proper names. From what I've read, it sounds like you've been given a stern-talking-to from some righteous fans before?

One of you can ask a new question.

[who45]

When The doctor wanted to go back to Gallifrey to see Leela, why was Romana upset?

[grinner]

Cause she didn't want to go back... as I think she was supposed to return after The Keys To Time scenario. I think.

[who45]

That's right.

[grinner]

that was a guess.

What was the GOAL of the Daleks in 'The Power of the Daleks'? What reason was given for the goal?

Well...they have a plant to make more of themselves and they have to find a power source...for static electricity I believe.

[grinner]

yep. Power is what I wa looking for.

[who45]

When The Doctor was questioning the chinese prisoner, Chang gives the prisoner something that kills him...what was it?

if yes... I think it is a tablet or a pill from his ring.

[who45]

[grinner]

How did Edward Waterfield die... and whom did he want the Doctor to look after?

[who45]

[grinner]

[who45]

Good question btw. Bye.

[who45]

Why did Sarah impersonate her aunt?

[grinner]

I think it is to gain access to a research facility

[who45]

You are right.

[grinner]

Who does the Doctor impersonate in 'The Massacre' and what happened to the double?

[who45]

Wasn't it an Abbott I think in Paris?? The real Abbott was killed I think.

[grinner]

yes and yes

[who45]

The Time Lords send the Doctor and Jo on a mission to deliver a sealed message pod to an unknown party on Solos...who was the message for?

[grinner]

this is the Mutants episode. Funny thing... I just read this episode again. It is for Ky

[who45]

Should've known,lol.:D

[grinner]

what is the only episode to take place 'ENTIRELY' inside the TARDIS... and what happened in this episode?

[who45]

Oh wow...good question...can I ask which Doctor that is? Thinking...

[grinner]

If I answer that... it will give away the answer to my question.

Think a bit before I give the answer away.

[who45]

Had to look this one up....The Edge of Destruction and it had to do with the TARDIS 'fast return' switch malfunctioned or was stuck. Is that what you were looking for?

[grinner]

yep

[who45]

What was Ace doing on Iceworld?

[grinner]

working in a diner?

[who45]

Yep.:)

[grinner]

When did the Doctor say this... "I never take life; only when my own is reasonably threatened." This was to Tyler when he tried to kill someone. What was the story behind this statement?

[who45]

Oh my...I'll have to think on this.

[who45]

Can I get a hint...I don't remember a Tyler?

[grinner]

First Doctor. A Dalek episode

[who45]

Because the Robomen wasn't a threat?

[grinner]

yep

Did I give you too much information?

[who45]

Not anymore than usual, but if you feel like you did, you can ask another question.

[grinner]

no, go ahead. I just thought after I posted it that it was a big hint.

you are up.

[who45]

After Davros conspires with the Thals to destroy the Kaled city, what does he then do to the Thals?

[Vikes4ever]

Doesn't he send the Daleks in to try and wipe them out? It's been a while.

[who45]

yes, that's right.

[Vikes4ever]

In "Inferno", who's voice is heard as the radio announcer during the newscast when all hell's breaking loose in the parallel universe?

[who45]

Well, I can't find it and I'm stumped...maybe grinner knows it.

[grinner]

I have no clue. I can't find this anywhere

[who45]

I can find about the broadcast, but not who it was the announcer.

[grinner]

With Letts now in charge, recording resumed on May 7th and 8th, which were again a Thursday and Friday; work on these days concentrated on episodes three and four, as well as some material from part six. Exactly two weeks later, episode five was taped alongside the remainder of the sixth installment over May 21st and 22nd. Unlike the earlier recording days, which had taken place in BBC Television Centre Studio 3, work on these dates shifted to TC6 instead. Pertwee had a rare opportunity to play a different role during this session, as he prerecorded the announcer's voice (performed in imitation of Nazi propagandist William Joyce) heard over the Brigade Leader's radio. Cast and crew then returned to TC3 for the final episode, which was taped on Friday, May 29th.

[who45]

Well, at least you found it,lol. I had no clue.

[grinner]

I had to search thru at least 12 websites before I found that. http://www.physics.mun.ca/~sps/tv.html#1doc

[who45]

You have more patience than I...I gave up after several tries.

[grinner]

NQ. Who said, "I am usually refered to as............, Universally?"

[who45]

Btw..I emailed you but I don't think it went thru..

[who45]

NQ. Who said, "I am usually refered to as............, Universally?" good question....got to think on this one.

[who45]

The Doctor?

[grinner]

nope but it is a TimeLord

[who45]

Knew it couldn't have been that easy,lol. mmmm....now I really will have to think on this one...making me think this hard, not good....kidding.

[grinner]

so that is what I smell burning... brains... :P:P:P:P

[Vikes4ever]

Good job finding the Pertwee/announcer thing. I checked back yesterday afternoon, but no one had posted since the day before.:) It's a bit funny, too. I new that Pertwee did the voice, before I asked the question, but just to see how hard it would be to find the answer online, I did a search. I searched for "Inferno announcer" on Yahoo and it came up as the 6th link. I was kinda shocked seeing that you went through 12 pages.:eek: However, I guess knowing the answer would make it easier.

I've heard of this NQ quote, but I can't remember it at the moment.

[who45]

Originally posted by grinner

[grinner]

need a hint?

[who45]

Yep.

[grinner]

It isn't the Rani...

[who45]

The Master

[who45]

if that's right...that was too much of a hint..practicaly took my hand and led me to the answer,lol. Ask another one.

[grinner]

yep, I should be mean and ask what episode

[who45]

Originally posted by grinner
yep, I should be mean and ask what episode but you wouldn't do that to me would you:ewink: Ask another one...that was too much of a hint.

[grinner]

What grade did Jo get in General Science... and how did she get her position?

[who45]

Well, she said she had a level A but I think she didn't...not sure what her real grade was. She got her position thru her Uncle.

[grinner]

yes and yes/

[who45]

How was the 'plague' passed to the Nerva crew?

[grinner]

thru Cybermats

[who45]

That was a little too easy wasn't it.:D

[grinner]

yes. ask another

[who45]

No, I was kidding because you got it so fast. You're up.

[grinner]

Who did Colonel Skinsale consider a 'crook and a scoundrel' and why did the Colonel call him that?

[who45]

This is from Horror of Fang Rock right? I think it was Lord Palmerdale and because of gambling debts?

[grinner]

not the gambling debt exactly... something that the Lord wants from him.

[who45]

Information about the government's financial plans?

[who45]

?

[grinner]

sorry... yes, government secrets

[who45]

That's ok. I knew you were busy having fun yesterday,lol.

Where do The Doctor, Romana, Garron and K9 go when the Graff is looking for them to kill them?

[who45]

Hints?

[grinner]

I think it is into the catacombs

[who45]

I started to think that might have been too hard.Yes, you are right.

[grinner]

I forgot about it over the weekend.


What happens to the TARDIS in 'The Colony in Space' when the Doctor puts the Dematerialization Circuit that he made into the consol?

[who45]

Mmmmm.....doesn't it dematerialize to another planet...can't remember the name...The Doctor had to find some secret documents....or something like that.

[grinner]

no, something occurs to the TARDIS that is different than what it normally does.

[who45]

It is able to go back to the same place it dematerialized?

[grinner]

actually... I was looking for the fact that instead of fading out like it typically does... it 'pops' in and out of view.


Why did the Dalek Supreme execute the Spiridon Dalek Commander?

[who45]

because they wanted command?

[grinner]

No, there is a specific reason that the Spirion Dalek leader is excecuted.

[samati75]

Off thread, but for you WHO fans, do you visit www.tachyon-tv.co.uk ? It is frelling hilarious and they have tons of Who news! They also update on Farscape, fwiw.

[grinner]

been there... I still like http://www.gallifreyone.com/ for Who news

[who45]

He has the map to the hidden bombs?

[grinner]

nope... something that he Fails to do.

[who45]

He didn't become invisible? If that's not it, I have no idea.

[grinner]

He failed. The actions of the Aliens destroyed/disrupted the Dalek Operations on the planet... and the Supreme Council doesn't accept Failure.

Why did the Master masquerade as a Police Commisioner from Sirius Four(complete with a stolen Police Spaceship)?

[who45]

To get The Doctor and Jo from the prison colony?

[grinner]

close enough... he wanted to kidnap him... so that works

[who45]

After 2 strikes I got one right. Must be doing something right today,lol.

[grinner]

I am sorry I was asking such hard questions. I am getting them from the BBC history book on the show.

[who45]

[who45]

I don't know, I can't find it.

[grinner]

It is something about the planets atmosphere

[who45]

desolate and oppressive..plant life doesn't grow there?

[grinner]

Actually it is that the atmosphere smells like Earth's did before the introduction of the Automobile.

[grinner]

In what episode does the Cyberleader recognise the TARDIS and say... "So... We meet again, Doctor"?

[who45]

Earthshock?

[grinner]

[who45]

The Cybermen, The Nazi's... and a sorceress?

[grinner]

I haven't been home... and forgot about the thread.

See, I really knew that all along, I was just testing you....honest.:D

[grinner]

[who45]

Like I said...Damn.

[grinner]

What does... 'watching behind the sofa' reference?

[grinner]

[who45]

Because they spent most of their time hiding behind the couch while watching it? That's all I can remember the show telling about it...have the tape..'30 years and More in the TARDIS' I think it was called....but please don't tell me I got this one wrong too,lol.

[grinner]

ZOE: What are you looking for?
DOCTOR: Well now's our chance to investigate the power unit and-and find out what fuel this ship carries.
ZOE: Well the Quarks use ultrasound. So presumably it must be a fuel capable of producing a high enough energy quotient to sustain an amplifying complex of considerably sophisticated design.
DOCTOR: Yes, must be pretty powerful too.
ZOE: Yes, well that's what...

[who45]

I'm just going down on all of them lately,lol. You're up..again.:D

[grinner]

There are 11 Triangular TimeZones and the Central Alien Headquarters... what are the Zones in the War Games?

[who45]

I tried to email you a reply earlier, but it keeps bouncing back. Just didn't want you to think I didn't read yours.:D

[who45]

Ok, looked this up because I wasn't sure...the First World War (near Ypres 1917), a Roman occupied country and America during the Civil War (1862 according to the map). Other zones either mentioned or seen on the map include Scotland during the 1745 rebellion, the Crimean War, the Boer War, the Mexican Civil War, the 1905 Russo Japanese Peninsular war, the Thirty Years War, the English Civil War, the 'Greek Zone' [Athens/Sparta war of the 5th century BC], and, by implication, the French Revolution (one of the Resistance is a sans culotte).

[grinner]

yes to them all.
