OK, now I'm pissed at BBCA--I finally got around to watching last night's Doctor Who just now, and it got cut off after the fake Doctor was shouting "Bravo, Doctor!" What happened after that?

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

But they showed all of it. Huh.
The fake Doctor invites Ten to Christmas dinner. Ten says no and opens the TARDIS. Fake Doctor gets to see the inside of the TARDIS which overawes him.
Fake Doctor asks him why he doesn't have a companion and Ten tells him because they break his heart so fake doctor insists that Ten join him for Christmas dinner - And manages to change Ten's mind. It ends with Ten and FD walking off to have dinner and remember their losses.

Comcast had it listed as ending at 9:15, when I'm guessing in reality it ended at 9:30. Damnit. That's what I get for not watching it either live or at least soon enough to catch the error and then recording a rerun later in the evening (they showed it three times last night--I could have taped the whole thing!).
ETA: Thanks for the link, Laura!! So sad to hear Ten say that the companions break his heart.

It was a most brilliant thing you missing that segment, Kathy. While searching for it I came across The Tennant Tapes. They were made during the filming of the Easter special. I hadn't seen them before. I am smitten.

I totally dug Virtuality.
Watched it on Fox, and the fullscreen didn't have a timeline, so I kept waiting (in fear) for it to be over because I knew it was going to throw me off a cliff at some point. So in a way, I was pleased with how much I got, when I was expecting it to end 45 minutes earlier than it actually did.
The line about democracy, didn't Mal say that (or something to that effect) in the first episode of Firefly?
It's like Sunshine meets Solaris, sorta.

cheerios:
if Fox is counting on fan buzz in a decision to continue with Virtuality, why the frick don't they have at least a splash page for it and a forum? Checked the general forum and I didn't see any threads, and man, I didn't realize how awful those boards were.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I read elsewhere that - no surprise - the ratings were awful. I don't think they are going to get fan support when so few people watched it.
