Peter Capaldi<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

More about Capaldi on the BBC Doctor Who blog<\/a> and IO9<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There were some wonderful moments on the show. I particularly liked Colin Baker saying that his idea for his costume was what Christopher Eccleston ended up wearing. I will be trying to re-imagine the Sixth Doctor\u2019s episodes with him dressed that way\u2026<\/p>\n

The \u201cKeep Calm Don\u2019t Regenerate\u201d t-shirt was also cool.<\/p>\n

If you saw the special, what did you like most about it? If you missed it, what do you most hope or speculate about the next regeneration?<\/p>\n
