Antilles Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Sure did, 15:09 into episode 1 we see Jamie & Zoe dressed in white in some kind of trance and the Doctor is enticed to come out of the TARDIS where we see it also in white as per your picture above. And thats it, a few seconds is all we see hehe! Strange episode the Mind Robber, its not the only thing that got painted I believe, they couldnt find a white horse for the unicorn scene and they had to paint another...non toxic I should imagine :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenriswolf Posted May 26, 2005 Author Share Posted May 26, 2005 HAHA! Cool! I love that picture of the white TARDIS though, the old girl's exterior has changed over a number of years. I was looking at just how much it really has altered from the old London Police Boxes and still I find myself preferring the new version, over Baker's now.

Antilles Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Yes Im loving the new model too, very WHO! Ok, I was fiddling with some simple effects for my new signature tonight and I used small subtle facials of all the Docs to fit into the new logo, but I was really surprised at the nasty Eccleston glare of his eyes the way it slotted into the logo...creepy. Very Bad Wolf! Pure serendipity! :) Sorry the logos lens flares makes it harder to see Colin Baker a bit but I wanted to keep it subtle all over, but he can be made out...just! Around the 'W' somewhere hehe! Methinks Ill keep this one for a bit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenriswolf Posted June 6, 2005 Author Share Posted June 6, 2005 Ok, as thraxman suggested there's now a TARDIS technology thread. The purpose of this thread is to compile useful information from Doctor Who and then eventually create a canon list of pertinent information. Some of this may or may not apply to the new series as well. So for now we're looking at the old series of Doctor Who and references such as the 'weapon nullification' effect etc. Please refrain from reposting information twice if you can and read all posts before making one of your own, thanks.

dingding100 Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Hope that this is what you are looking for... In ep2 The Daleks, We learn that the TARDIS has a "Fluid Link" filled with Mercury and that the ol' girl can be disabled easily but letting the Mercury out. Nothing like liquid metal running all over your controls. Also, it has a food replicator. Just dial "J-6-2, L-6" for Salty Bacon & Eggs. Wonder if you have to dial "F-6-9" for Bangers & Eggs...

petra1989 Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 The Zero Room is now gone. Jettisoned; just after the 5th Doctor appeared in episode Castrovalva. It was a room of healing for a Time Lord that need extra time after a regenration. The Tardis was heading towards "Event One" or Big Bang and part of the Tardis had to jettison to give it enough boost to move away from the Big Bang. Unfortunatly it was the part with the Zero Room in it. Or Fourtunatly, they could have lost the consol room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S0V13T Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 In one of the episodes, The Doctor mentions the The TARDIS was supposed to have been operated by 6 (or was it 8?) time lords at any given time. That's the reason behind The Doctor scrambeling around the console / needing compamions whenever they activate the engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLunatic Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 So for now we're looking at the old series of Doctor Who and references such as the 'weapon nullification' effect etc. Wasn't it that the TARDIS is in a state of temporal grace, so weapons don't work.... Namely, in the 'Invasion of Time' where the galifreyian staser pistol didn't work on the TARDIS.... Though I thought it was more like somehow the pistol draws power from an outside source that exists in the capitol...rather than having a self contained power source...and being that the inside of the TARDIS is in another Dimesion/Space, perhaps even Time?...that the pistol is cut off from its source. Though the Doctor then fiddled with something to allow the guard's communicator to work from inside the TARDIS... The Lunatic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegoonden Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 The TARDIS has at least 2, possibly many more console rooms. Romana's room was also jettisoned....however we can assume I thnk from the sheer size of the TARDIS that for her room to make any impact on it's size, it in itself must have been dimensionally transcendental. A glaring Mistake that has occurred a couple of time in the new series, is the dematerialisation cicuit powering up while the dimensional interface was still active (taking off with the doors open), the effects of this are pretty predictable, and laid out in full in one of the audio plays. Another from the audio's is that the TARDIS has the ability to replicate even living matter, and gets distinctly pissed off if that life is harmed in any way. ( Frobisher, the doc's shapeshifter companion, who likes to be a penguin, made a fish to hunt in the swimming pool and the TARDIS went under self control and refused to respond.)

Fenriswolf Posted June 7, 2005 Author Share Posted June 7, 2005 As GorunNova pointed out in Earthshock, a Cyberman was able to fire his weapon inside the TARDIS and as I remembered from the Paul McGann movie, which is canon to RTDs timeline for the show -- the Master was able to beat on the Doctor inside it, harm Lee and also Grace was able to hit the Doctor upside the head.

GorunNova Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 In one of the episodes' date=' The Doctor mentions the The TARDIS was supposed to have been operated by 6 (or was it 8?) time lords at any given time. That's the reason behind The Doctor scrambeling around the console / needing compamions whenever they activate the engines. [/quote'] O.o... I'd love to know which episode that was ^_^... can't remember an episode where he ever said that. Was it the first or second doctor? I'm pretty sure Tom Baker's doctor hadn't said that...

petra1989 Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 The Cloister Bell is sounded during periods of extreme danger. The Tardis sounds it herself. It's not like an alert that anyone can set off. First heard during Logopolis, it was warning the Doctor that his life was in danger. It was heard a few more times in the series and also in the TV Movie Why it was not sounding when the Slitheen's "surf board" was ripping apart the Tardis, I don't know.

Fenriswolf Posted June 7, 2005 Author Share Posted June 7, 2005 It looks as though in the new series the dimensional interface has gone, or rather the interim room has been taken out. So perhaps now it's possible to dematerialise while the doors are open or just closing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They either missed it out totally or it's been removed from the new show, as a lot of stuff seems to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorunNova Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 ... are there even back rooms in the new Tardis? They haven't shown any doors leading back inwards... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
