Happy Birthday to Bill Piper (Rose) and to Frazer Hines (Jamie). Wouldn't you love to see Rose & Jamie in the Tardis together? I think there would be a love connection.
BBC announced the episode will be called "The Day of the Doctor" and will be 75 mins long.

The Keeper of Traken - Review
Aired in 1981
1st Appearance of Nyssa
1st Appearance of Anthony Ainley as the Master
The Keeper of Traken is a pretty solid Dr Who episode. The Master returns since the Deadly Assassin episode and we get to see the great Anthony Ainley start his run as the Master. What's nice about this episode is that Anthony plays most of the episode as Tremas, an actual good guy instead of the evil Master. This is Tom Baker's 2nd to last episode and I feel that his performance is not his best. I think that his performance has a lot to do to the fact that he has no one to banter with. The chemistry between Adric and the Doctor is just not there without Romania there. The thing that jumps out to me during this episode is the amount of times that the leader of the guards gets knocked unconscious until he's finally killed. The Doctor actually gets him to fall for the huddle trick, where he bangs all of the heads of the guards together while they are huddled up. Overall, I give this episode a 3 out of 5 Tardis's. The length of the episode is just right and it's a pretty solid story.
The Invasion Review
First Aired in 1968
First Appearance of UNIT
First Appearance of Sgt Benton
The Invasion is a solid 2nd Doctor episode that sees the Cybermen invading Earth with the help of some humans. Two of the episodes are still missing, so the BBC had those episodes animated. Some people do not like the animated episodes, but I do. They were done very well and I hope to see more animated missing episodes. My only complaint of the Invasion, is that there is not a lot of Cybermen action until episode 5. I would love to see the Doctor arrive on Earth after the Cybermen have conquered Earth, kinda like the Dalek Invasion of Earth. Overall, I give it a 3 out of 5 Tardis's.
