Just How Silly Will The Doctor Who Christmas Story Get On IMDB


Looking at The Doctor Who Christmas Episode 6.0 detail on IMDB earlier, things are getting sillier and sillier!

We know The Doctor, Amy and Rory are in it, as is Michael Gambon, confirmed and seen on set.

Zoe Tapper is now talked about, but they say as Diskworlds Death, Brian Blessed as Omega and Matthew Waterhouse as Adrics Ghost? Someones talking out of an orifice of their body not normally associated with verbal communication! Then it casually adds Tom Baker, Nicholas Briggs, Alex Kingston, and John Simm. All I can say is where is Marlon Brando?

Thanx Emma for the heads-up :)

Edit: In other circles, Peter Bowles has been mentioned too!

EDIT: On IMDB, Tom Baker has already been removed from the list :)

I was just watched The Trial of a Time Lord. It got me thinking that Brian Blessed should come back as something, but I never guessed he would be Omega. I didn't think Omega would ever come back, considering that his body eroded and his consciousness was left inside a black hole in The Three Doctors. But of course, stranger things have happened, like The Master getting to continue living after he used up all of his regenerations and had completely lost his body twice.

we laugh now, but the truth is they had almost every name correct for the Pandorica and Big Bang episodes before it aired. One never knows.

zoe tapper - probably, blessed as omega (omega is supposed to be about somewhere in s6, so possibly the xmas ep, not convinced itll be blessed tho), adrics ghost sounds silly and fanwanky, but possible? maybe, but there are bigger names from the whoniverse they could get. overall i wanted this article as a list of IMDB claims, to compare it in december :)

Omega came back in Arc of Infinity. so whatever happened at the end of Three Doctors has already been reversed.

IMDB is the most unreputable site for information in the world

If it just says "Death", there is an expanded universe DW character called Death which the IMDB contributor might be wishing will be in the adventure.

As for Waterhouse as Adric - there's a documentary on the Earthshock DVD in which Moffat dismisses his performance as "not BAD acting, hes just not acting" so this return is also staggeringly unlikely.
