Fantastic, Paul McGann doing on screen what he has done in the Big Finish Audios. Role on day of the Doctor, Zygons and maybe another regeneration?

I love the Paul McGann radio shows, he's great in them! But to see him back on screen like that, it's quality!

Signed! If only this would happen. One year of McGann and one of Capaldi. It would be brilliant. They could get a break between series whilst telling loads of Who stories

Updated information on The Last Day mini episode:

 

Link: Doctor Who iTunes minisode The Last Day was meant to be free to UK fans as well as US viewers says BBC as they await plans to rectify the situation

 

...The BBC have unveiled another Doctor Who minisode in the run up to the 50th anniversary special – but this one, due to a mistake by iTunes, comes at a price for UK fans,RadioTimes.com can reveal.

 

The Last Day, a 3 minute 43 second clip set on Gallifrey, is currently priced at £2.49 to download on iTunes but is free to watch in the US. It follows last week's free, seven-minute minisode The Night Of The Doctor, which featured the sensational return of eighth DoctorPaul McGann.

 

However, a BBC spokesman has confirmed to RadioTimes.com that "this is an error on the part of iTunes. This should have been free. We’re waiting to hear back from them about how this will be rectified"...

Update to the post above: Doctor Who mini episode: The Last Day now FREE to download from iTunes.
