AFT Doctor Who: The Doctors at the 50th anniversary special
So yesterday was the big day, and of course my Doctors wanted to come to the cinema as well to see their show on the big screen. I had to smuggle them in in my bag, as I hadn't bought a ticket for them. Then again, I probably could have, as old as they are, they could have gotten pensioner's discount. Anyway, here are some pictures of our journey to Chemnitz!
I already started to regret taking them before we even had taken off. They were fighting for the best seat in the car like children.
Eleven: "Adi, stop making yourself bigger than you actually are! Some of us also want some space here!"
Ten: "Stop tickling me all the time, Astra!"
Astra: "Just trying to help!"
Finally the dispute was settled and we could start. Didn't take long though before there was whining from the back seat.
Eleven: "Are we there yet? How much longer?"
Ten: "Should have taken the TARDIS, that would have been quicker. Could you get a move on, I desperatedly need to pee!"
Astra: "You should have gone before we started, what are you, Five?!?"
Finally we arrived in Chemnitz, and while searching for the cinema, we came about some of the sights of this city. This is one very famous thing, the head of Karl Marx. It's bigger on the outside. The monument also says "Workers of the world, unite!" in several languages. Why they put it actually into Chemnitz is unknown, because Karl Marx never has once set foot into this city. But the people living there have adopted it as their own now, and you can buy it in all sorts of shapes, including one made of chocolade. Nom-nom.
Eleven: "Oh no, it's the tickely-tickly hand again!"
Ten: "Look behind you, could we use this TARDIS to escape it?"
Eleven: "Nope, this is just a stone relievi, stupid!"
Ten: "So, what's this then?"
Astra: "This, if you must know, is the Stone Wood. Those are real trees which are millions and billions of years old and were fossilized. They are pretty famous and unique."
Eleven: "Boring! Can we take a picture in front of it?"
Astra: "Let me try some camera settings to get the best light of both you and the wood."
Eleven: "Let's sit down while she does that."
Astra: *exasperated sigh*
Finally we made it to the cinema and settled in our seats. But if I thought now they would be quiet, I needed to think again.
Eleven: "When is it finally going to start, I am running out of Popcorn here!"
Ten: "Didn't you hear what Strax just said? Popcorn can feel pain!"
Eleven: *bites into his Popcorn and makes crunchy noises* "Whoodidyajustsay?"
Ten: "We forgot our 3-D-glasses. Can you go and get us some Astra?"
After that the movie finally started, and it was phantastic. But you probably know that, as you have seen it yourself. Yesterday we did history, people, we got the Guiness Book award for the largest ever simulcast of a TV drama, following a global campaign from BBC Worldwide that saw "The Day of the Doctor" broadcast in 94 countries across 6 continents.
Looking forward to the 100th special in 12-D. I will be 90 at the time, so it is possible.
Disclaimer: None of those dialogues did actually happen. They are dolls after all, they cannot talk. Ow! Stop hitting me, Eleven! And you Ten, stop sulking! I promise you won't have to wear the rain coats ever again!

"I wear a plastic raincoat now. Plastic raincoats are cool."
"Shut up. This weather is not good for my hair."

Were you also able to see the special things, that came before the movie? The Strax introduction, where he told about the popcorn, and Matt and David and the 100th special in 12D? And the chin? I think there was a link on youtube once. Or was it included in the DVD?
The Adipose belongs to my brother, I once gave it to him as a gift ;) He is so cuddly. If you want to buy one, make sure to get the original, which you can recognize by the little tooth in the mouth. There are lots of fake ones out there actually.
The fun thing is, now reading it back - at the time I only had the Big Chief Eleventh Doctor, but now that I have the Tenth Doctor as well, he does indeed come with tiny 3D glasses! From that one episode, the blue and red kind. Too bad I didn't have them back then, that would have been hilarious.
Oh, what I didn't tell in this story - shortly before the end the screen suddenly went black. We still had sound but no picture. After they realized it, they stopped the broadcast, rewinded, and started again, so we saw the rest not exactly live. But in the time they tried to fix it, a lot of people in the audience got out their sonic screewdrivers, it was lovly to hear the noises! Also lots of people were dressed up in costume, lots of Tens and Elevens and also some Fourths could be seen. And girls in TARDIS dresses. This was the most fun for me. And I made some people turn their heads and grin when I placed my dolls in the seat ;)
In the beginning they only had reserved small rooms as they thought they would not sell many tickets, but they had to add more rooms and bigger rooms and a second screening later in the evening, I had no idea there were so many Who fans in Germany. In the end it was aired in 38 cinemas just in our country.
I love you inventing new dialogue ;) LOL
Meet you at the 100th anniversary then!

The little tooth is co cute, you can easily notice when a plushie hasn't got one. I can't imagine how Russell T Davies could be so sure that people will buy a toy of a creature originally made of human fat but he was right. The Adipose are just adorable.
"But in the time they tried to fix it, a lot of people in the audience got out their sonic screewdrivers, it was lovly to hear the noises!"
This is co cool. I imagine people pointing at the screen with their sonic screwdrivers, trying to fix the screen. It was bad the transmission was stopped but you got a bonding time :)
"Meet you at the 100th anniversary then!"
In 12D, with 3D glasses for all!
