[who45]

Just tell me because I have no idea,lol.

[grinner]

He was terminated by the Supreme Council

[who45]

Didn't you say you wanted me to still ask a question right?

[who45]

If so here it is...How did the Nimons cross from one planet to the next?

[grinner]

Is this Horns of Nimon?

[grinner]

by using the sacrifices?

[who45]

Right episode..but wrong answer. Want to guess again?

[grinner]

hmmm....

[grinner]

in the Skonnan Ship?

[who45]

no...want a hint? They create something to do this

[grinner]

There is only one... I thought. Nimon was the Bull Headed creature.

[grinner]

[who45]

I love the fact that the next highest person on this list... is over 1804 posts behind me. and 1764 behind you.

[who45]

I know..this is the only thread that I will have that big of a lead.... or that many posts for that matter :lol

[grinner]

okay, next question


when was the first successful cloning experiment and what was the longest recorded clone life?

[who45]

I might need a hint on this one.

[grinner]

search on Center for Alien Biomorphology or Bi-Al Foundation.

[who45]

First successful in the year 3922... The longest successful clone lasted for 10 minutes 55 seconds

[grinner]

right...

[who45]

Google is a wonderful thing isn't it...oh wait you are the king of google though aren't you?:P

[who45]

About how long did the quest to find the ship P7E last and who found it with the help of The Doctor and Leela?

[grinner]

Centuries... and Jackson was searching for it.

[who45]

well that didn't take you long,lol.

[abbadon]

[who45]

I see posts are missing in here as well and I can't remember what my last question was? Do you?

[who45]

I remember it now....Salyavin had been at Cambridge for how many years in the guise of Professor Chronotis?

[grinner]

centuries?

[who45]

how many years?

[grinner]

some 300 years?

[who45]

yep

[grinner]

What research did Liz Shaw want to continue when she left the Doctor? Where did she go back to do the research?

[who45]

physics and medicine?

[grinner]

nope... something specific. and where does she return

[who45]

Hmmm....will have to think on this one.

[grinner]

want a hint?

[who45]

yes please :D:

[who45]

I even broke down and tried to look this one up, but all I can find is that she leaves to continue her scientific research...doesn't say what kind.

[soyarma]

Posting here simply to have the last post in every thread on the first page :)

Also wishing I had caught more Who when I was younger so I could be in on this thread.

[grinner]

I even broke down and tried to look this one up, but all I can find is that she leaves to continue her scientific research...doesn't say what kind.
she was researching meteorites and other space phenomenon... so she returns to that. Where does she go back to research?

[who45]

This should be easy, but still have no clue...go ahead and tell me the answer.

[grinner]

Cambridge... where she was pulled away from by UNIT.

[grinner]

How do the Vardens travel? How do they 'speak'. Why did they want to take over Gallifrey?

[who45]

Cambridge... where she was pulled away from by UNIT. Ya know, I had put Cambridge with my answer to Physics and medicine, but deleted it because I thought it was wrong. Should know better by now :lol

[who45]

How do the Vardens travel? How do they 'speak'. Why did they want to take over Gallifrey?This is from 'Invasion of Time' right?...Didn't they travel by some kind of mental energy...they "spoke" by telepathy..or thought....I think they wanted to take over Gallifrey so they could have could have power over the Matrix...or rule the universe...hhmmm been awhile since I've seen this episode.

[grinner]

oh well...:P:P:P

[grinner]

This is from 'Invasion of Time' right?...Didn't they travel by some kind of mental energy...they "spoke" by telepathy..or thought....I think they wanted to take over Gallifrey so they could have could have power over the Matrix...or rule the universe...hhmmm been awhile since I've seen this episode.
not mental energy...

[who45]

oh well...:P:P:P:nana: Gotta go for now...see you later. :)

[who45]

not mental energy... Thru another power...they used the Time Lords scan beams to travel in the Matrix.

[grinner]

that is correct. why did they want Gallifrey?

[who45]

to gain the secrets of time travel?

[grinner]

yep

[who45]

Before Chang died, what did he tell The Doctor and Leela to beware of when they found Weng-Chiang?

[who45]

need any hints?

[who45]

:bump:

[grinner]

The Doctor knows now that Chang knows Weng-Chiang is not a god. Chang admits he thought, at first, Weng-Chiang was the god. He gave Weng sanctuary while the soldiers of Tung Chi searched for all. The soldiers found the cabinet and took it; afterward it was given away as a gift -- to Litefoot's family

[who45]

But what did Chang tell them to beware of...it was when he was dying...he said 'Beware of...' what ...and what did it mean?

[grinner]

probably to beware of the homoculous. Mr. Sin.

[who45]

No...it was something else in Weng-Chiang's new hide out.

[who45]

still don't know?

[grinner]

I reread the entire novelization of this episode and can't see what you want

[who45]

Chang start to ramble about being the poor son of a peasant who will soon entertain the Queen Empress at Buckingham Palace. He also says he sees his ancestors coming to greet him from the Palace of Jade, the ancestors carrying fruit and flowers as gifts. He will, in seconds, cross the bridge to meet them. He touches the shoe of the Doctor, telling them to "beware the eyes of the dragon." He also leaves the shoe clue, which the Doctor and Leela cannot figure out -- shoe, boot, earth? A Chinese puzzle, the Doctor says as Chang cannot explain further... he is dead.


He told him beware the eyes of the Dragon...which was a statue...the eyes were lasers.

[who45]

After the Fifth Doctor, Tegan and Susan encounter the Master, how does The Doctor end up at the Capitol...how did he get there?

[grinner]

He uses the recall device that The High Council of Gallifrey gave to the Master

[who45]

I guess that one was easy.

[grinner]

ask another

[who45]

why, you got it right so you go next.:D

[grinner]

cause you had an insanely tough one... and then come out with a softball that I hit out of the park... :D

[grinner]

unless you really want me to ask one

[grinner]

fine... here goes :D

Who asks the Doctor "Doctor, why do you always show the greatest interest in the least important things?" And how does the Doctor reply?

[who45]

Well, that was sweet of you..but it is only fair that you should ask the next one...eventhough I'm sure I'll kick myself later :lol

[who45]

aahh...ignore my last post :lol :D

[who45]

fine... here goes :D

Who asks the Doctor "Doctor, why do you always show the greatest interest in the least important things?" And how does the Doctor reply? I will have to think on this later..I am wiped out and I'm going to try and get some sleep. Goodnight. :bigwave:

[grinner]

[grinner]

[grinner]

btw... this is the question

Who asks the Doctor "Doctor, why do you always show the greatest interest in the least important things?" And how does the Doctor reply?
__________________

[who45]

I want to say Jo said it...hhhmmm which Doctor was it about?

[grinner]

nope, not Jo.

First

[who45]

Would have answered this sooner, but we had a storm yesterday and it fried one of my phone lines.:irked: Anyway...was it Vicky?

[grinner]

nope... it is said in 'The Space Museum'

[who45]

Ian I think said it...and the Doctor replied that many great discoveries have resulted from paying attention to the smallest detail.

[grinner]

that is correct.

[grinner]

btw... if you are trying to YM me... my yahoo isn't working... I can't log on.

[who45]

I had that problem Friday. I couldn't log on to it until Sat. morning. Must be somthing up with yahoo. But anyway, everytime I YIM you, you never see it. Don't know why....that's why I get you to YIM me.

[who45]

Linx carried a weapon that could do what...it was more than 1 thing.

[grinner]

strike, burn, stun, control humans and make captives speak

[grinner]

after gleefully attacking a mute assassin, Ascaris, what does he say to Vicki?

[who45]

I think he was upset that she interrupted him because he wanted to finish the fight himself.

[grinner]

nope... something very specific

[who45]

you do mean when The Doctor attacked Ascaris right? He said he wanted to do a one-two punch...or something like that. If that's not right I'll go read it.

[grinner]

something about the delights of fisticuffs

[scrape_medic]

Fighting!? in Doctor Who...never!

[grinner]

actually the Third Doctor used to fight all the time... using Venusian Jujitsu

[scrape_medic]

He did?! I must have spent too much time behind the sofa.

[grinner]

yep... he used to fight almost every episode... the 007 influence

[who45]

This was all I could find...if it's not it, then I don't know....'Unexpectedly, the Doctor is cross with Vicki for ruining his fun. He was all ready to administer "the old one-two" to finish the man off himself. However, the Doctor is pleased at his success, glad for a change to use his brawn rather than his brain to defeat an opponent. It takes him back to the time when he used to teach the Mountain Mauler of Montana how to fight! Vicki is reduced to gales of laughter over this.'

[scrape_medic]

yep... he used to fight almost every episode... the 007 influence
:lol

*sorry, I'll leave you to your regular scheduled program now*

[who45]

He did?! I must have spent too much time behind the sofa. But then you must have missed all the good parts 'cause you can't see from behind there. :D

[grinner]

there is a site that actually has a transcript of that episode... google... Doctor +who "the romans" transcript

[grinner]

:lol

*sorry, I'll leave you to your regular scheduled program now*
don't worry about it... as long as it is Doctor Who related... ask all you like :D

[who45]

there is a site that actually has a transcript of that episode... google... Doctor +who "the romans" transcript Well, I am googling and it's not coming up. Go ahead and tell me.

[who45]

don't worry about it... as long as it is Doctor Who related... ask all you like :D yeah scrape..what he said. :)

[grinner]

"You know, I am so constantly outwitting the opposition, I tend to forget the delights and satisfaction of the gentle art of fisticuffs."

[who45]

aahh ok...ask another

[grinner]

The Doctor surmised that the Carsenome Web-City took how long to grow into its present size? what was in the center and what did it control?

[who45]

ohhh, good one. Will have to think on this one...hhmm.

[who45]

Is this from the Web Planet?

[grinner]

yep

[who45]

I will make you wait for the answer :P...actually I only remember part of the answer..will have to think on it more :D But I am going to bed so I will post it tomorrow. Night. :bigwave:

[grinner]

check this out...

[grinner]

and this one...

[grinner]

one more...

[grinner]

one more... honest

[Bargaintuan]

Bah! Movie Daleks!

;)

[who45]

If I was there I think I would be expecting it to start shouting 'Exterminate!' at any moment. :lol

[who45]

In my opinion that Doctor Who section of the store should be a lot bigger. :D

[DRD2001]

Sorry to interrupt your thread, but for those of you who might be interested, Peter Davison is going to be at Dragon*Con this year.

You may now return to your regularly scheduled thread. Thank you.

[who45]

Too bad I wont be able to go. :(

[who45]

The Doctor surmised that the Carsenome Web-City took how long to grow into its present size? what was in the center and what did it control? about 200 years to get it's size.....I believe it was Animus that was at the center and he controled the Zarbi's attack on Vortis.

[grinner]

darn...

[who45]

:D :P:

[who45]

Who or what did Lupton summon and why?

[abbadon]

Sometimes the Doctor would Park on Ice rinks.....Just for the hell of it... ;)

[grinner]

:roflmao: brilliant

[who45]

:spew: :roflmao: I just choked on my cookie I was laughing so hard...good one abb.

[Pip's Play Thing]

Well, I just got a look at the new Doctor, as filming has finally begun in Wales, and...well, I was rather surprised. Gone are the hair styles, hats, scarves, period dress that has marked the Doctor's character. The new Doctor will wear a modern leather coat, v-necked black t-shirt, black pants and an unknown style of shoes, and have close cropped hair. The actor portraying the Doctor, whose name escapes me, says ever actor got to choose his costume and he wants to take the Doctor in a new direction, possibly expanding on his relationship with his traveler-mate. Meanwhile the makers of the new series promise to stick to tradition with a tweak here or there to "update" it.

This will be something to see, I think.

[who45]

His name is Christopher Eccleston...still dissapointed it wasn't Anthony Stewart Head..but oh well. I am very looking forward to the new episodes...counting down the days in fact. I do however think that the old episodes will always remain the best...there was just something special about all those Doctors...it all just seemed to click. But who knows, the same might happen with the new. I'm just glad that my all time favorite show is going to come back. :D

[who45]

Who or what did Lupton summon and why? btw we are on this question.

[grinner]

He summoned the Spiders of Metebelis 3 to K'anpo's Tibetan Monastery because he wanted power and revenge.

[who45]

yep you got it. :D

[grinner]

now to think of another question. hmm...

later.

[who45]

Ok...running out of questions huh :lol

[grinner]

What did the Doctor say that he gave to the Greeks?

[who45]

It wan't the saying Eureka (sp?) was it?

[grinner]

nope... not that.

[who45]

well it was worth a shot...hhhmmm

[who45]

Is this from the Myth Makers?

[grinner]

underworld

[Lord Loser]

...wondered how long before you two got your own room... :P

[who45]

Only took over a year :D :P

[scrape_medic]

Come out of there LL, leave them alone!...:g2f:

[grinner]

Huh?

[who45]

What did the Doctor say that he gave to the Greeks?The myth of the Golden Fleece?

[grinner]

close... but nope.

Something that was used by the Greeks... and was big

[who45]

the wooden horse...but that was in the Myth Makers..hhmmm I have no idea

[grinner]

yep... well, it was a trick question. In Underworld he says that he did NOT give the Trojan Horse idea to the Greeks... but he actually did in Myth Makers.

I was being... naughty with that trick question.

[who45]

yep... well, it was a trick question. In Underworld he says that he did NOT give the Trojan Horse idea to the Greeks... but he actually did in Myth Makers.

I was being... naughty with that trick question. You being naughty :ewink: I was going to put the trojan Horse, because I thought of the myth Makers, but you threw me...:lol

[who45]

At Maidens' Point Captain Sorin sends Petrossian to the beach to search for the missing orders....what happened to Petrossian?

[who45]

Need any hints?

[Bargaintuan]

Just FYI: The Daleks Are Back! (http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/doctorwho/cult/news/drwho/2004/08/04/13394.shtml)

[who45]

yep :groove:

[who45]

At Maidens' Point Captain Sorin sends Petrossian to the beach to search for the missing orders....what happened to Petrossian? Still on this question.

[Pip's Play Thing]

Interrupting the question game to announce for any who might not have heard... The Daleks are back! A deal has been struck 'tween the markers and Terry Nation's estate to bring 'em back!! Exterminate!!! Uh, sorry. I slipped into a Dalek mode there. :rolleyes:

[who45]

nobody knows the answer..hhmmm..

[grinner]

Okay, he is sent out to look for the missing orders. He finds a bag but before he can get anywhere... something rises up out of the waves and kills him.

[who45]

yep :)

[grinner]

What is written about 'Aggedor' and what does the Doctor say about it?

[who45]

hhmmmm...isn't this from the Curse of Peladon?

[grinner]

yes

[who45]

I think it was something like...that Aggedor would kill any who have left the old ways...and the Doctor didn't believe this...thought there was some other explanation..

[who45]

?

[grinner]

no, it is something else. How the Aggedor is the.... of all the beasts...

[who45]

It was wriiten that in the day of Aggedor's spirit's return, a stranger would appear, bringing great peril and tribulation. Allegedly the beast was to protect the planet Peladon and its rulers.*

[grinner]

what does the Doctor discover after that is said?

[who45]

That Hepesh, was using it to prevent his planet from joining the Federation? If that's not it I don't have a clue.

[grinner]

that is the jist of what I was going for. That the creature was a noble one... and that Hepesh found one to use whenever he needed a bit of haunting.

[who45]

ok..will have to think of a question but later.

[who45]

Who kidnaped Arthur Ollis?

[grinner]

I think it was Omega. I just read the Three Doctor's novelization... and it was either Ollis or Ellis.

[who45]

Yep you're right...and it was Ollis...should have known you'd have just read it :lol

[who45]

I really like your avatar...brings back good memories. :aok::)

[grinner]

What caused the conflict between the Skarros Daleks and the Spiridon Daleks? What was the resolution?

[who45]

The Spiridon Daleks were supposed to gain the ability of becoming invisible, but they only achieved this for a short time...I think the Skarro Daleks considered this a failure so they wanted to abbandon the other and the army that was frozen....if I remember correctly the Daleks were left on Spiridon unable to report what they had found.

[grinner]

which ones became... humanized?

[who45]

The Spiridon Daleks?

[grinner]

yes... and what happened between the two groups.

[who45]

They begin to fight...the Gold Dalek destroys the leader of the Spirion Dalek's....trying to walk me thru this one? :lol

[grinner]

I didn't think it was that... difficult. You could have said that they fought and the Spiridon's lost... :D:P:P:P

[who45]

:bonk: :lol..yeah I guess I just took the scenic route...it's so boring always doing it the easy way...that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. :D :P :whoops:

[who45]

Not too long after The Doctor and Jamie are on the Silver Carrier, who are what tries to attack them?

[grinner]

:bonk: :lol..yeah I guess I just took the scenic route...it's so boring always doing it the easy way...that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. :D :P :whoops:Riiiiight... :rolleyes:... :P:P:P

[grinner]

Not too long after The Doctor and Jamie are on the Silver Carrier, who are what tries to attack them?
hmm... now this is one that I will need to think about. I know that there were only a couple episodes where the Doctor and Jamie were without a female companion... hmm...

[who45]

What? :angelgrin

[who45]

hmm... now this is one that I will need to think about. I know that there were only a couple episodes where the Doctor and Jamie were without a female companion... hmm... yep...can I savor this moment that you actually have to think about the answer... :lol

[who45]

Hints?

[grinner]

cybermats

[who45]

nope...it was something they encountered while on Phoenix IV (The Silver Carrier). No one else was aboard except for The Doctor, Jamie and who/what tried to attacked them.

[grinner]

Cybermen

[who45]

No...they do encounter them later...this was the first thing that they encounter when they arrive on the Carrier...it tries to attack them...

[grinner]

The Servo Robot

[who45]

yep

[grinner]

How did the Doctor respond to Sarah's question of how big the TARDIS was and what brought that question out?

[who45]

Was this from The Masque of Mandragora?

[grinner]

yes

[who45]

I think it was when Sarah found the boot cupboard and commented on how big it was, when she asked the Doctor about the TARDIS he asked about how tall she was and that infinity can't be measured.....or something like that. If that's not right I will have to look it up....I just watched this episode yesterday :D

[grinner]

that's close to what I was looking for. It was The Doctor and her wandering around the TARDIS that brought up the question. Also when they "discovered" the other control room.

[who45]

After leaving Harry in Scotland, The Doctor tells Sarah he can get her to London in 5 minutes....where do they end up instead?

[grinner]

I assume you are talking about Zeta Minor which is where they end up after Terror of the Zygons, right?

[who45]

yep...was wondering if you would catch on to that :D

[grinner]

I am tearing apart the bathtroom on the main floor of my house and had to rip up the carpet that it shares with the breakfast nook, so I had to move my boxes of video tapes. I found the VHS tape of that episode and watched it. At the end of the episode... they didn't arrive anywhere, so I went thru about 50 tapes to find the episode that followed Terror of the Zygons. To many tapes.

[grinner]

What did the Doctor and Adric fight about in the begining of Earthshock and what was the second part of the argument?

[who45]

Adric wanted The Doctor to take him back to E-Space...back home...Adric argued that he could come up with the computations to get him back.

[grinner]

That wasn't the first argument.

[who45]

hhmmm...that he was being treated as a child..that he was teased all the time?

[grinner]

that was part of it... the main point was ________

[who45]

That he didn't feel he fit in..that they didn't take him seriously??

[who45]

Really hope the E-space tro will come out in DVD soon....those are some of the best episodes.

[grinner]

well, he was feeling that the Doctor was ignoring him and spending all his time teaching the girls stuff. after that is when he brought up the fact that he was teased and then wanting to go back to E-Space

[grinner]

Really hope the E-space tro will come out in DVD soon....those are some of the best episodes.
I have those on BBC/FOX VHS tape... in the really cool box.

[who45]

well, he was feeling that the Doctor was ignoring him and spending all his time teaching the girls stuff. after that is when he brought up the fact that he was teased and then wanting to go back to E-Space So I was close enough??

[grinner]

sure...

[grinner]

why not. :D

[who45]

I have those on BBC/FOX VHS tape... in the really cool box. The one in the black box with Tom Baker on the side with the TARDIS in a time bubble I think it is...then the the other boxes have cool pic on them as well.

[who45]

Trying to get in extra post counts are we? :P

[grinner]

not really... I have had the 30 post lead for quite a while. granted, it used to be a 200+ lead... but... :D

[grinner]

The one in the black box with Tom Baker on the side with the TARDIS in a time bubble I think it is...then the the other boxes have cool pic on them as well.
hmm... I will have to look at my box... I don't think it is black.

The Trial Of A Timelord has a cool box... it is a TARDIS.

I have the Cybermen Box set, the Daleks box set and Daleks II box set.

[who45]

not really... I have had the 30 post lead for quite a while. granted, it used to be a 200+ lead... but... :D Yeah, but that didn't last long. :D :P

[who45]

hmm... I will have to look at my box... I don't think it is black.

The Trial Of A Timelord has a cool box... it is a TARDIS.

I have the Cybermen Box set, the Daleks box set and Daleks II box set. I don't have a Trial Of A Timelord..shocking I know :O but I do have the cybermen and both Dalek sets...and The Key to Time set in DVD.

[grinner]

Yeah, but that didn't last long. :D :P
actually at one point... it was almost 300... but that really didn't last long.

[grinner]

I don't have a Trial Of A Timelord..shocking I know :O but I do have the cybermen and both Dalek sets...and The Key to Time set in DVD.
I also have the Key to Time set in DVD. Got it the day it came out.

[grinner]

This is my 2000th post in this thread.

:woohoo:

go me. :P:P:P


the only other thread that I have been involved in that had as many posts... was the original vanity and before the first culling of the word game. That was 2500+ posts there, and the original vanity had just over 2000 posts.


grinner 2000
who45 1968

[who45]

actually at one point... it was almost 300... but that really didn't last long. Really...that must have been a blur cause I don't remember that..but that was a while back and as you said didn't last long I'm sure. :lol
