Opening titles

[edit]

I'm pretty sure this is not the first opening credit where two pictures are used for the doctor... one serious and one smiling... I seem to remember it happening in the opening credits for the third doctor, too, at least. 142.76.1.62 (talk) 22:53, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Opening titles did not feature the Doctor until the eleventh season. In that season (which was the last Jon Pertwee season), a full-length picture of the Doctor was used in the opening titles, but not a face-only, or head-and shoulders, pic. Further, it was a single photo, so did not change expression. --Redrose64 (talk) 14:03, 16 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Just a correction, opening titles featuring an image of the Doctor started with Patrick Troughton way before season 11. DonQuixote (talk) 01:42, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oh rats, my bad, you're quite right of course. Those used a single photo, no change of expression, which is I think what the original poster is querying. --Redrose64 (talk) 11:41, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hidden message

[edit]

Would it be noteworthy to include the fact that some of the computer graphics on display contain (in teletext form) a hidden message from, I think, Dave Chapman, the effects supervisor? I don't have a translation of it at the moment, but can rustle one up if I can find the screenshot. David (talk) 19:15, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Update: the message is as follows: "mon nom bog off you twit ass face bu"/"dr who rules ok so does daves progra". I'm not kidding, that's genuinely what two lines of the block teletext graphics in episode one translate as. David (talk) 22:53, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
