I'd also love to see River meeting the 13th Doctor, see how their relationship changes... But about her meeting Missy... well, where's the problem? Just ask Big Finish...
Thank you Steven Moffat for writing such a brilliant role of River Song. Alex Kingstong is the most warm generous actress I've come across and I can't wait to have a one on one video chat with her on Saturday. Can't find The Ruby's Curse at any book stores near me though I can easily buy it on eBook but as anybook nerd knows sometimes you want the actual hardcover book.
You can preorder the book on Amazon and probably a few places more if you google it. You can get the audiobook now from Audible. I did both. The audiobook is absolutely wonderful. Well, it’s read by Alex Kingston. Need I say more? P.S. Big Finish has a story where River meets Missy. It’s a hoot. It’s part of River’s series. Hope this helps.
@@joanwerthman4116 Oh I'm getting the audiobook too beause, how could I not? Fortunately I will be able to have a short video chat with Alex on Saturday and I wanted to show the physical book. Unfortunately Amazon won't release it until some time in June. I watched 1.5 season of Doctor Who on late summer nights as a kid but only recently in lockdown life I binged watched NuWho, Torchwood, and SJA in two months. I know of the RIver Song audiobooks and trust that they are on my list as well as finding a way to watch the classic series.
@@stephymarie4403 If you're in the US, Britbox has Classic Who and if it's the price of the audios, just keep an eye out for sales- the have them all the time. As for the book, check out Book Depository. They ship from the UK so my copy is already on its way here despite the US technically having a later release date :)
Wow i thought she would be just like river, who is larger than life all the time, but she is much more demure and down to earth. She also has a killer speaking voice. I could listen to her talk all day.
😳 O.. my.. goodness! Yes, I love how Alex Kingston can still make River Song so lovable and make me miss River even more. Can't wait to read the book. Hello Sweetie!
Indeed. It’s hard to believe that the American show "ER" booted her for being "too old" four years before she first appeared on Dr. Who. Glad someone at the BBC had better taste.
seeing all of these press videos that Alex is doing for her book really makes me think of how glorious her time with Doctor Who was - her episode with Peter was a true end-of-an-era moment for me
"How long is a night on Darillium?" "Twenty-four years!" "I hate you!" "No, you don´t!" Never cried so much in my life! And amazing to see this was her most memorable moment, too!
Your absolutely fantastic Alex thank you and the Writers for bringing "River Song " I absolutely adore you as River. Lots of love and hopefully we will see you as "River Song " again. I really can't thank you enough for getting me through sad times watching "Doctor Who" ❤
@@DrWhoFanJ no my pension doesn't go far enough to allow me to buy enough GB to stream things. I have just enough to access 2 social media, emails and youtube I watch a couple of RU-vid videos a week no longer than 15 mins each.
I want my fellow doctor who fans to help me convince Alex to be the next doctor who show runner I'm very impressed by her passion of the world she never disrespects the fan's and is inclusive to all of us I think she would do a great job
It would be great if a true Who enthusiast took over the series. But first I'd like to hear how she would fix the damage to the canon caused by the Timeless Child story. As a longtime Whovian myself, I want to see that mess gone, but in a way that doesn't rock the inner logic of the series' story. Maybe she could have the Twelfth Doctor wake up on the TARDIS, turn to Nardol and say "I just had a crazy dream..." Or maybe not. Which is why everyone should be glad that I am not the showrunner....
River : Simply unforgettable Silents : (She's so fine, there's no tellin' where the money went) River : Simply unforgettable Silents : (She's all mine, there's no other way to go) River : She's unavoidable, I'm backed against the wall She gives me feelings like I never felt before ...
I’m 26 years old and engaged to a man I love with everything I have, but there’s some weird part of me that feels that in another life, this woman is my soulmate. 😂 I feel such a connection to who she is as a person and to every single character she portrays, finding new and often surprising ways to delight and enchant us with each project and venture. She was such an integral part to my formative years, and in turn, of who I am now; she’s also single handedly gotten me through some very dark spots in my life without even knowing I exist. I live on the opposite side of the globe so unfortunately it won’t be anytime soon, but I do hope I get to tell her how much she means to me one day.
Dear Alex, I loved Melody Malones adventures in ancient Eygpt and old New York. I hated when I came to the end. Please Alex, please give us another. The formula was excellent. Keep it up for us Whovians, torchwoodians,Sarah Janians, and now us Malonians:). Alex you know we love you always and forever. Your story is long from over... Thank You. Tau'el By the way we share the same B Day March 11. I always think of you on that day no matter what. And yes Missy and River over the Doctor, WOW. They missed it didn't they, Sweety?
I wonder how River song managed to get the liquors in Capaldi’s TARDIS in the first place, since it was the first time she met that version of him. My best guess would be that she snuck it in while he was the 11th doctor because he had the same TARDIS during the latter half of Series 7, and it is implied she had some adventures with him after Angels take Manhattan, so maybe she was still with him when he changed the console room, and that’s when she did it.
Peter Capaldi's "Hello, Sweetie" is also my favourite. Best way to bring the story around... We're still missing that River and Missy adventure, though. Imagine if, instead of partnering with Clara in The Wizard's Apprentice/The Witch's Familiar, Missy partnered with River? It would've messed up with the surprise of the new face, but it would've been FANTASTIC.
Saddest regeneration goes to Smith. Most relatable doctor goes to Smith. Most emotional impactful goes to Smith/Tennant. Most admirable goes to Capaldi. Most unpredictable goes to Eccleston. Yet.. River Song kept them all under tabs 😂👀
Yanno what I absolutely hate reading books but I love Doctor Who so much (it was me and my grandads thing RIP 🥰) and I want to get the book now. Plus River Song and Alex Kingston are just Iconic x
Just bought the book, thanks to the other Alex's video, and I can't wait for my holiday to read it! I normally read books in the bathroom, but this book doesn't deserve that :)
Its whichever doctor i’m watching at that moment.... but seriously i’d have to say 12 - something about his emotion and his deliverance of speeches were amazing
For classic I love 7 I just do, Sylvester McCoy just did a fantastic job! For New I have to say 11 Matt Smith’s Doctor just reminds me of myself a lot. But honestly I love all the Doctors as they are all so unique and have so much to love about them.
No, don’t ruin rivers character, when jack came in, I didn’t hate his character but at this point I don’t care about his character coming back if they’re just gonna do him like that
Characters like River and Jack - their stories are OVER. Bringing them back is/was a horrible idea. You can't just rely on other writers' characters for your own doctor who. Chibnall needs to get a grip and be more original - I honestly don't see how bringing River back will benefit the series. I mainly stopped watching due to a lack of originality in the writing - Chibnall is just bland as a writer.
@@gsam2021 Bye, then, idiot! Hope you regenerate into a better person who can truly appreciate the hard work Chris Chibnall and Jodie Whittaker are putting into making the show a huge success!
1.) I'd love to see Missy and River meet, but I fear for the safety of the Whoniverse. 2.) Peter saying "Sweetie" is absolutely the best! It completely broke me.
would love to see a river song spin off kind of a even newer twice to doctor who , maybe traveling threw time fixing the doctors messes :P or helping him / her ( meaning the doctor ) with issues from behind the seen ?? but hey what do i know
