Do I have to admit watching - and enjoying - this?
What was the deal with the Jadoon anyway? Were they meant to look like rhinos and does that indicate the running out of ideas?
It was good, those drones looked like the Stig from Top Gear lol.
Also, I thought I saw Christopher Eccleson in the preview... maybe going mad x.xI thought that when I first saw the series Trailer, but I then slowed it down and it wasn't...
Loved the episode, very funny.Even so, thats an achievement to rip off something like that! XD
New New York is a Futurama ripoff though.
i loved it. alot better then the 1st episode. and rather amusing. XD though nothings really struck me as fanartable yet.. *ponders*
did you know the actress who plays Queen Victoria was in Doctor Who in the 60s? She played Samantha Briggs in 1967's 'The Faceless Ones' which was basically about an airport.
Poor Doctor... he already got Queen Victoria hating him... but yay... interesting way to end the episode xD
How very interesting, I don't suppose any of that footage actually still exists as proof, but still...Actually, episodes 1&3 still exist, but only episode 3 has footage of her. So there's the proof.
So, this weeks then.
Loved it! Very original and a joy to watch! Didnt expect Giant Carbs to be the mence from below, so yay. Loved the lesbian grannies! XD
"You are not alone"
Jack is so another Timelord.
Nah, I reckon they'll bring The Master back. He was cool, and had a Tardis that didn't malfunction.You're all made of win for that~
Pity The Doctor didn't realise he could beat the GIANT ENEMY CRABS by Attacking The Weakpoint For Massive Damage
Not bad this week. Good to see the Face of Boe aswell.
I keep feeling as though i've heard of the Macra. I think they've been in the old series.
I love the new series but is anyone else worried that the Daleks are getting overused?Meh, can't be helped. The Darleks are just as popular as the Doctor himself (Maybe even more) and we re pretty much seen them with every series and Doctor in the past (Except that one in the "movie") so really, this isnt anything new.
Also, I can't wait for Captain Jack to come back. :)
we re pretty much seen them with every series and Doctor in the past (Except that one in the "movie")
He's had a fair few run-ins with them in the Big Finish audio cds!Oh, then there you go then.
Too bad I know everything that happens because of Wikipedia. =/ Oh, and try re-arranging 'MISTER SAXON'. Go on... I know what it is.
"We are the last remaining Daleks in existance. We really are this time. Promise."I reckon its maybe to breed. They might of "run out of female Darleks" and need to evolve to survive. I dunno.
What have Daleks got to gain from leaving their nice armoured weapon-covered shells and fusing with humans? o.o They're much cuter as living robots.
What was that Daleks name? I think i've heard it sounded like the one from Doomsday
It was called Dalek Sec, Leader of the Cult of Skaro. And yes, it was the same one from Doomsday.
"We are the last remaining Daleks in existance. We really are this time. Promise."
Darleks love killing things right? So, what if the human Darlek discovers he can no longer "EXTERMINATE!" and starts feeling human emosions? He d no longer be a true Darlek, so me thinks he ll kill himself because of what he has become, kinda what he deserves for turning humans into Pig Slaves.
But heck, its only a theory, but I clever one I thought up. XD
"We are the last remaining Daleks in existance. We really are this time. Promise."
As for why they'd do such a thing, they know the future. They know that humanity spreads and spreads for millenia. With that potential for a Dalek Human hybrid to spread throughout history instead would be too tempting.
Is it just me, or does anyone else think it's strange that the dalek human walks out wearing the same suit, in perfect condition?
Great episode though in my opinion. Scary piggys!I just can't take those pigs seriously, i think they look hilarious! :laugh:
already a New New York episode? Also, I thought I saw Christopher Eccleson in the preview... maybe going mad x.x
Agreed, great episode!
Sewers dalek conversation part was the best :)
I don't understand why the daleks never kill the doctor when they have the chance: 'oh no, the doctor! Lets just panic and chat while he escapes!'
Russel T. Davis is a fantastic writer, no doubt about it.
And they walked like Cybermen o.o
I agree FaF.
And should Tallulah not have been more upset that her boyfriend was half pig? I know I would have been "Oh my god! What happened to your face?!?! You have horny things in your mouth!!"
Why didn't that amount of electricity fry everyone, not just the ones touching metal?
Why didn't the lightning kill the Doctor, anyway?
Why did Tallulah with three l's and an h go from "It'll never work" to "LASZLO <33333"?
How did they cure Laszlo?
Everybody got an egg whisk x]
I wonder if next episode, balloons will keep sticking to the Doctor? 0.o
And wouldn't that also add pigperson DNA?
Either that, or that last Darlek made a bloody good disguise... XD
That was an ok episode. I thought the monster looked good.
Was that 'mysterious man' (as it said in the credits) the Master? I think it was, because he said something to Martha's mum about the Doctor being dangerous and he seems to know The Doctor.
[Jaaaaaaccccccck!!!! <3333333]
Does anyone know where you can buy the clothes the doctor has? A friend of mine want's to know...
42 looks pretty good to me. Anyone read the prologue on the website?
I read the Wiki article. Sounds interesting; it runs in real-time... Doubt it'll have much impact, though.
Good to see the nod to Hitchiker's in the title, though.
Is it 7.15pm yet?
I can't wait to see The Doctors reaction to the Master.
Thats if it is The Master.Rearrange the words "Mister Saxon" and you ve got your answer. :P
I loved it O.o Amazing acting on Mister Tennant's behalf... even more so than usual, I may add. I'd question how Martha's phone worked lightyears away from home, but I don't think I dare.Its called magic. Deal with it! XP lol.
Thats if it is The Master.
Not too bad this week. I'm guessing that "Burn with me" and things like that will be a bit like the "I'm sorry, i'm so sorry" line. I mean, that plasmavor said something like it in Smith and Jones. And i've heard something like it in the first series aswell, I think.
The helmets look like bionicle masks ¬¬
Say, theory time! I wonder, could Mr Saxon be running in the mentioned "Election" and become Prime Mister? Imagine that, a whole country/planet against the Doctor... o.o
I saw one and a half (had to go to sleep) episodes this Wednesday. The first episodes of Doctor Who i've ever seen. And i must admit, they've got a good story.
And who makes such evil-looking scarecrows? xDI think its farmers who have too much spare time...
The little girl skipping down the road is a reference to a Sylvester McCoy (the Seventh Doctor) episode called Remembrance of the Daleks. I noticed it right away, having seen that episode before.

Ah yes. Good episode that was. Although the Little Girl Turned into Emperor Palpatine.
btw lapras king what you mean by rearrange Mister Saxon?
He means Mister Saxon is an anagram of Master No. Six.aah i see a bit lke torchwood but this one could actualy get mentioned
Apparently its another "Doctor-Lite" episode like Love & Monsters, and we all know what that episode was like.
A brilliant, innovative and moving piece of modern television?
Except... How did he 'smell' human when he was in the ship, having become The Doctor?
Aliens? You'll be lucky if you see three loads of aliens a series.
I not a fan of Doctor Who any more.Be honest...is it because I smell funny?
heard that doctor who is going to be axed after series 4. Also DT isn't leaving this series(every one should know why). And not in the christmas unless queen elizabeth is in thatYou kidding me?
Wasn't Martha that was supposed to be axed?Yeah That's what I heard.
Oh and a remote control Dalek.
I too have a Remote control Dalek.
I can beat you both... I have TWO remote control Daleks! (One is the normal generic Bronze, the other DALEK SEC!)
Doctor Who just PWNS.
heard that doctor who is going to be axed after series 4. Also DT isn't leaving this series(every one should know why). And not in the christmas unless queen elizabeth is in thatThose are just rumors at the moment. And even if it were axed, the fanboys will rally to have it put back on, so nothing to worry about, really.
Wasn't Martha that was supposed to be axed?I heard that too.
I also heard that Russel T Davis was quiting after the next season.
And is it me, or is a 2 parter with the Doctor not himself then a episode where he isnt in the ep much a bit much?!?
Moffat's done it again!
Lovely Olrik...
'They'll love this on the forums, it'll blow them completely apart!'
However, the dude that looked most likely to be the master (imo) from the trailer was the old dude holding the watch or something.
Excessively. I am in desperate need to find out both the whole hype over Mr. Saxon and, more importantly, whether or not the Master will be featuring...
My mum said the Master made the Daleks.
Davros made the Daleks.
Terry Nation, also the creator of the brilliant Blakes 7 (I have all four series on Dvd <3) created the Daleks, much against the creator of Doctor Who's ideas.
Captain Jack is now invincible?
And a brilliant cliff hanger. Wonder how they will get out of this one.
Master creating the Daleks... what an odd idea. That was Davros.Judging the way the previous series finalies have gone, those ball things will proberly transform into Darleks... ::)
So... those little floating balls. TimeLord-Lites?
Terry Nation, also the creator of the brilliant Blakes 7 (I have all four series on Dvd <3) created the Daleks, much against the creator of Doctor Who's ideas.
It's over!
That was one good episode.
Is this the first three-parter?
And the master hasn't reincarnated 12 times and i don't think it stops at 12 anyway.
LOL. Dude its soooo obvious that The Doctor gets Jack's little time traveling watch working again.Also, if you were listening at the end, you hear Martha shouting "Wait! I recognise that voice!" so thats how they know what time line to 'hop' over to.
Can't wait for part two.I wonder what happens to the rocket as their is a future kind on it.No, remember. She got shot by the guards when she trashed the system...
I know what they do! they try find the angel things to send them back in time and then the whole dvd thing happens. TARDIS comes back and they return. look at martha's hair in the preview(before 42 when dh was delayed of eurovision) and the dvd
I think it's more likely that either:
A) He stole another Timelord's body in the Time War,
Or
B) RTD quite rightly isn't getting bogged down in obscure continuity.
It's not people like us who bump up the ratings. It's the rest of the country, who watch Doctor Who, go "Oh, that was good", then get on with their lives.
No, remember. She got shot by the guards when she trashed the system...
Check out the website. It's pretty cool and they got some videos.

And for some reason I keep tapping those four beats ><.
And for some reason I keep tapping those four beats ><.
Incase anyone wants to see the preview to next week again, here it is (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkY9dV9v9EA)Is that Jack at the start? It looks like he's had some years added on to him as well...
I watched it. It just shows you how Americans are greedy.
I mean, the president of USA coming to the UK and demanding to be on the telly instead of the Prim- er Master
It just shows you how English people base their views of other countries on a television programme.
Says you americans who still think we all drink tea and speak all posh and basically haven't a clue what England is all about. I mean that stereo typical view of us is over 200 years old whens it gonna change?
I was amused by that o.o Mark the American. He'd have to drink Grinds instead of tea... whatever Grinds is.
Ooh, I think I missed the bit where we found out what the "Paradox Machine" was actually for... anybody pick that up?
The word is Grits, and it's not a drink.... I don't know what it is though....
It does bad things, it's your basic doomsday device sort of thing.
What does comatose mean?
Meh.. I wish we got the episodes here... I feel like I'm missing out.Chani, check out youtube. They sometimes have the whole episodes on there.
What does comatose mean?
BBC haven't put end of series teasers like in series 1 and 2
The shot of Gallifray was...disheartening. I mean, I always had this idea that the Time Lords didn't actually have a physical being and that they merely took on the form of whatever random species their regeneration chose for them. Having seen this stereo-typical sci fi city-in-a-bubble, I was pretty p***ed off. I mean, come on, you've just ruined a load of hardcore fan's idea of what the Time Lord Planet looked like. That's basic in film making. Don't show more than you can actually afford to show.
They haven't? How do you know?it's not on the site, that's so obvious. no count down
surprising how nobody commented about the paradox machine (not that i saw anyway) because if i am correct it is meant to be connected to a parallel universe most probally parale earth or the void
I am a big fan of doctor who it is getting very exciting at the moment i cant stop watching it lol i cant wait until the cartoon version comes out on bbc two that will be wicked to watch does any one know if this is the last episode of doctor who this Saturday or is it going to becoming back later on in the year? please let me know Doctor Who fans thanks xx
The cartoon version looks awful, and I doubt it will be taken as real canonicity within the programme, or at least, that's what I'm hoping...:P
What makes you say that?i read it somewhere (cant remember where) and more importantly it was on an episode of futurama (the episode could of been named something to do with paradoxs but not necessarily) and in the episodes i think the professor said that a paradox is an alternate universe as they kept going from one universe to another parrale one

B) Get defeated and escape for a future episode.
Place your bets now! What do you think will happen to the Master? Will he:
A) Get defeated and get captured/destroyed by the Doctor
B) Get defeated and escape for a future episode.
Well, Futurama was incorrect. A paradox is simply a statement or situation which cannot possibly be the case because of two opposing states of affairs - for example the statement "I am lying" is a paradox. Nothing necessarily to do with alternate universes.Ok i'm wrong but then that means does the cannibalized tardis has the power to break the laws of time and space then
How about:
C) Get defeated and get captured but escapes in a future episode
Well what can I say? That was proberly the best Series Finalie thus far.
"Sylvester McCoy is set to make a guest appearance as he was in The Left-Handed Hummingbird."Now its sounding even more awesome. ^^
YES! Sylvester McCoy is freakin' awesome, in my opinion. With him being in 'Voyage of the Damned', I'm very happy.
omg how mint was that last episode of doctor who cant wait until christmas for the special then hopefully before doctor who comes back torchwood will come on. did anyone see the weakness link special of doctor who that was funny the doctor (David Tennett) was acting like a geordie that was soo funny
omg how mint was that last episode of doctor who
the doctor (David Tennett) was acting like a geordie that was soo funnyWhat? I only caught the end of it! Dammit! Ha'way, this is a joke. I missed DT being a Geordie?!
What? I only caught the end of it! Dammit! Ha'way, this is a joke. I missed DT being a Geordie?!
What the heck is a Geordie, anywho?Oh yeah!
Well, what are your opinions on Martha, folks?
and i asume Jack and the team will be back on TV between that though?
A second series has been commissioned, and started filming on April 30, 2007 for broadcast in 2008
mmm, was a good series end.. whats with the ring though? o.o
"At the end a hand is shown picking up the Master's ring. This is similar to the end of the Flash Gordon movie where a hand is shown picking up Ming's ring. In both cases the implication is that he might not be as dead as he appears."
So, they're leaving it open to bring him back eventually.I'm almost definate that he will not come back because its not really a well backed-up claim...
I'm almost definate that he will not come back because its not really a well backed-up claim...
Was Freema really sacked? Wow... I thought she'd be coming back...
My mum guessed that the Toclafane were humans, so kudos to her!
Dobby Doctor was odd... It was silly how they brought him back to normal.
Quote from wikipedia:Were you being sarcastic? o.o
Apparently not.
Well, the Slaveen are rumored to make a comeback, so no.
Still, the new Sarah Jane spin-off airs later this year. Not sure if thats a good thing or not.
Were you being sarcastic? o.o
Cute (like a baby) in a creepy way...
Well, the Slaveen are rumored to make a comeback, so no.
Theroy! President and PMs sometimes have lookalikes right? What if the lookalike was killed instead of the Master? o.o
What I'll never get is why the wife shot the Master, I must've missed something, can someone please explain?She said "[after being taken to see the end of the universe] There didn't seem to be much point [in living] anymore". She was probably so shocked, she did whatever The Master said (Marrying him, letting him get a way with things) but secretly, she hated him, but was unable to rebel, until she saw hope (Provided by The Doctor's and Martha's plans).
QUESTION!
Why do Timelords burn their dead Timelord buddies, which pretty much copying what the Jedis do in Star Wars? 0.o
Does anybody think The Doctor was becoming a little Jesus-like, when he said 'I forgive you' to the Master?
No one metioned the:
"What? What?! What!" the same in doomsday and last of the time lords.
And I loved the return of the "WHAT?" at the end of the series... Mister Davies does like ending serieses that way =P
Quick question, what is the name of that song that plays when the master pushes Grandad Doctor About? 'tis really catchy.
I Can't Decide by the Scissor Sisters <3if you've seen the film, the master regenerated for the 11th time into human, then regenerated again into what he was last episode. this was his last regeneration, but the doctor didnt know.
Re: the 13 life rule... they HAVE stuck to it, haven't they? o.o The Master chose not to regenerate even though he could've, and the Doctor is still only on his 10th life. Or had the Master supposedly used all of his up?
No one metioned the:
"What? What?! What!" the same in doomsday and last of the time lords.
Oh yeah!As if. Anyway, I bet you that it was the TARDIS that sunk the Titanic instead of the iceberg back in 1912.
A geordie is the dominant species in the North Eastern English city of Newcastle... His or Her accent is distinct through the English language... I happen to be a Mackem though... The only difference is that Mackems say Ha'way! not Howay! and Mackems are better....

I heard that Doctor Who will end in 2008. Is this true?
I heard that Doctor Who will end in 2008. Is this true?
David Tennant is only doing another half series, but the show isn't scheduled to end yet.
Tennant has confirmed that he will continue to play the Tenth Doctor at least into the revived programme's fouth series in 2008, and the Sun has reported that he has also signed for the fourth (2008) series, "in a £1 million deal", although the same paper has also reported that he will leave halfway through the fourth series. The BBC has denied this.
Plus, like Mushroom said, its a bit too soon for the Doctor to regenerate now.Only because everyone luffs him... Christopher Ecclestone left after the first revived series...
And surely he would have been named 'face' of boe when he actually became the face, and not before. He just happens to turn into a face even with that nickname...
Jack speculates how long he may live and how he may look after millions of years, before mentioning that he was the first person to join the Time Agency and a poster boy for his native Boeshane Peninsula; there, his good looks earned him the nickname "the Face of Boe".
Jack is meant to be invincible. 'a point in time', a 'fact'. So he cannot die. But the face of boe (who we now know is jack) dies
liek....how o.O
Just a thought: in 'The End Of The World', the Doctor says he 'ended up clinging to an iceberg', thereby implying that he had already been to 1912. Wouldn't that be crossing his own timeline?
Well it does say that he stopped a family from going on the Titanic, in the first episode. And that the next day it crashed. Maybe he left the day before the Titanic crashed, meaning he wouldn't be crossing timelines...Do you not mean sunk? The Titanic sunk, not crashed
There is only one left. Maybe it will be in the Christmas Special with the Titanic.
I'm pretty sure the events at the end of the time war haven't actually been revealed yet, so we don't know how everyone died off.They re all stuck in Watches I tell ya! XP
Here we go, Celebrity-To-Grab-Your-Attention Special again. Sigh... Sylvester McCoy is gonna be in it, so I'm happy about that.
And I really found most of this season boring. Too much Martha "Are you in love with the Doctor?" moments. Every. Freakin'. Episode. Except 'Blink', since it was written by a competent person/Martha wasn't in it much.
Apparently, Kylie Monouge is gonna be in the Christmas Special. She is a Waitress on the Titanic
Couldn't be bothered to
Where's the evidence for this? Sylvester McCoy, I mean.
But surely that's part of her character background? It'd be pointless to make it part of her character in one episode, and ignore it in another. And I think that's a very realistic, human response to the Doctor.
Bit of Series 4 info. I said that the new companion would be revealed soon. And apparently:
"Catherine Tate will return as Donna Noble for the entire 13-week run."
Thoughts ?
/me is not happy
... you're kidding me.
You're actually joking.
Please tell me that isn't official? ;_;
We need a character like Donna - Someone who isn't going to fall in love with the Doctor, who'll stand up to him a bit more.
One thing thats just sprung to mind from the last two episodes... At one point, Martha, The Doctor and Jack were on the News, reported to be terrorists. Next thing we know, Martha is travelling all around the world and she is highly respected. How would she be trusted by so many people, to all say 'Doctor', yet after being reported as a terrorist the day before... o.o
Because it was 'Mr Saxon' that told everyone they were terrorists... then 'Mr Saxon' murdered 1/10 of the human race on live tv... So I imagine nobody trusted him too much after that.
But didn't the Doctor make everyone forget about him decimating the population?
The Sun's reporting that James Nesbitt could be in line to be the 11th Doctor. Thoughts? o.o
What's wrong with him? No idea if he'd make a good doctor but he was good in Jekyll.
Tabloid newspaper The Sun published a report in August 2007 suggesting Nesbitt was being considered by the BBC as a replacement for David Tennant in the role of Doctor Who, following his successful collaboration with Steven Moffat on Jekyll. Tennant is rumoured to be quitting the series at the end of the 2008 series and Moffat is widely believed to be taking over executive producer duties from Russell T Davies. The report cites a "mole" in the BBC as the source. This was later dismissed as "a total fabrication" by Steven Moffat on the Outpost Gallifrey fourms.
The next Doctor will probably be ginger.Not Chris Evans surely. 0.0
I hope David Tennant stays as the Doctor as I think he plays a good part as the Doctor.
Not Chris Evans surely. 0.0
that's a good drawing. any way, UKTV gold is repeating Doctor who, (watching the christmas invasion right now)They always repeat Dr Who. ::)
Not Chris Evans surely. 0.0
1 - The 'drunk office party-goer' was a facade to get close enough to the console to shut down the robots.
2 - The Master deliberately done that to get to the Doctor - "Laser Screwdriver; who'd have Sonic?"
3 - 'Stop the Cybermen; destroy the Daleks'? Ring a bell?
And I found Russell T Davies kickass in the last 3 episodes of this year's series. :)
RTD butchered Doctor Who. Season 1 of the revived series was good, but it got progressively worse, and season 4 will undoubtedly follow suit. It's a crappy half-assed romance drama now, and doesn't have the same feel as the classic series.
Steven Moffat could easily save the series with his superior writing skills, if he could just take that idiot RTD's place.
So you've not seen The Girl in the Fireplace, written by Steven Moffat, then?
1 - The 'drunk office party-goer' was a facade to get close enough to the console to shut down the robots.
In Daleks in Manhattan the Daleks say they are the last 4 and they sounded confident, one dalek remained that was the last. it teleported and doctor said he will see him again. and that Dalek in 'Dalek' in S1 seems to be that one from S3
You do know Douglas Adams used to write for Doctor Who, right? Or that Terry Nation started his career in comedy? Doctor Who's meant to have funny moments and the Tenth Doctor's supposed to be more light-hearted when the darker side of him hasn't come out yet.
And I'll say it again:
Oh, and:
Nah, the Dalek in Van Statten's bunker was a random foot soldier who demanded orders even from the Doctor. Dalek Caan, on the other hand, had free will (to and extend) and a mind of his own (again, to an extent).
Doctor Who at it's heart IS a stalwart Sci-Fi series.
And he keeps saying the Doctor is 900 years old, I'm probably the only one who is bugged by this, but Sly McCoy's Doctor was over 900, continuity please.
So you've not seen The Girl in the Fireplace, written by Steven Moffat, then?
And they've taken parts of the new series seriously too. There's the same balance as before.
Well at least the Slitheen aren't coming back to Doctor Who (I really hope), but I really wish they wouldn't make more Sarah-Jane adventures, isn't Doctor Who fun enough for kids as it is?
I was bored, and flicked the other day the channel over to ABC [Australian Broadcasting Commission] and Doctor Who was on. Now it was a new series with new episodes, and I had only ever watched a few..Yes that is very 'interesting' y are u putting " ' " in The Master it's his name like you don't see us putting ' on The Doctor Like This:
- the one where they go to 'new new' york or something?
- and some others.
Now, this one had Captain Jack Harkness in it, and I like Torchwood <333. They were on some planet with crazy people and they tried to make a footprint system work so the shuttle could go to Utopia.
'The Master' had a watch and used it, became young again, instead of being a 'professor' while the Doctor and Jack were locked in as 'The Master' stole the Tardis [Phone Box]
I quite liked it, not being a fan and all.
Sarah Jane Adventures start Monday at 5pm.
Its coming back at Christmas for a Christmas episode. Then there will be a new series around March/April time next year.thanks for letting me know cheers
On August 7, 2007, The Sun reported that Sir Ben Kingsley is to play Davros in the 2008 series. This has not been confirmed by the BBC.
I heard about that the other week. I also saw something in a TV Guide that the Davros returning part was true. Although since its not official from the BBC I don't really believe it.
I d like to see what they can do with Davros in the new series, so I ll be interested.
Exactly, and I m sure you people will critizise the new guy who ll replace him for not being like Tennet. :P
What you just described the Tennat Doctor as didn't register in my head, Danse_Maxavarious. Care to expand?
The BBC revealed which classic monster Gardner was referring to on 2 October 2007, when they announced that Christopher Ryan (famed for his role as Mike in The Young Ones) will be appearing as a Sontaran leader.
ANYONE else hyped up about the reappearance of the Sontaran? D:
Bit of news, a special adventure will air for Children in Need next month! It ll involve Tennet teaming up with the 5th Doctor, Peter Davidson.I quite excited about this. It's called 'Time Crash' which tells you that there's gonna be a twist in time, and not some made-up thing like the Comic relief sketch.
Better still, written by Steven Moffat!
I quite excited about this. It's called 'Time Crash' which tells you that there's gonna be a twist in time, and not some made-up thing like the Comic relief sketch.
The Sontaran are confirmed to be returning.
I'm obsessed at the moment with 'The Invasion'. I just cant stop watching it! Also, I've noticed that there's something about the B&W eps that isn't in the new ones. I dont quite know what but theres something about them that makes them special and I dont think it could be achieved in the new eps. Not with all the CGI anyway. Also, the stories in the Patrick Troughton era are absolutely amazing! There hasn't been one dull episode and I think they have the best storylines out of the whole of doctor who (yes even the new ones). Sometimes, I wish the people who dont bother with the old series at all would watch the 60s eps and appreciate how great it was, even though they had cardboard sets!
Who agrees?
I think you'll find Richard E. Grant was in 'Scream of the Shalka'. :P
I think you'll find Richard E. Grant was in 'Scream of the Shalka'. :P
lol. the n00b needed correcting, good one, Phil
It was great, especially when he figures out who he is.
Has anyone seen the picture of the Sontaran for the 2008 episodes?
Also - John Barrowman confirmed he's back next series!YEY Jack's back Again. I wonder what will happen next time they meet. I would imagine it be for one episode or a two parter where they encounter jack and he helps as he has his team at torchwood. Maybe the team helps?
If this is true then why isn't it on the BBC's Doctor Who website? And what newspaper did you get it from?The Sun.
I seriously doubt this is true though.
The Sun.
The Sun.
Ah, yes. I heard about that last year. It was proved false if its the article I think you mean. Did it by any chance say that Robert Carlyle was to be the new doctor? And that Tennant was leaving mid-way through the 4th series? If so then it is 100% false.
Rose is going to return for a small bit of next series! The BBC haven't released how she'll return and when. They said they think it'll be for a few episodes, but it won't be perminant... so Rose fans... celebrate!
The original episdoes didn't really concentrate on the relatiohship between the Doctor and companion, but just that she helped him out...
I gotta agree with you here. I don't see why the needed to bring her back, especially now. The fact that there will be 2 others with Doctor makes it seem like a bit of a weird time to bring her back, but also it defeats the point of the 'dramatic and (as Rose fans call it) heartbreaking' finish to series 2. The original episdoes didn't really concentrate on the relatiohship between the Doctor and companion, but just that she helped him out...
Exactly. It just seems that nowadays every TV serial has to be 'sexed' up or involve romantic relationships that either succeed or fail. I think that companions should be just that- companions. Not romantic interests. But it's the fad these days. Love, romance and tradgedy. Oh what happened to cynicism, logic and intelligence?
I think that the writers are jumping the shark now- instead of thinking up brilliant new stories, themes and characters, they have to bring old ones back to appease fans- well, some fans.He's 900. I only got into Doctor Who in he 3rd series. So I don't know wthat Rose is like. :'(
I'm not doubting that they won't be able to create some fantastic stories, but what they should do is just leave Rose where she is- She can't just be trapped in a parallel universe which has been sealed off, then suddenly she returns- it's stupid. Just leave Rose where she is and make the Doctor get over it. What happened to the crochety 600 year old man we used to love?
He's 900.
*nervous laugh* I knew that- >> << *clutches chloroform bottle*
I only got into Doctor Who in he 3rd series. So I don't know what Rose is like. :'(
Well she was enamoured with the Doctor, Vice Versa, although she was strong willed and minded in many stories, she still ended up crying for the Doctor and such. She playfully teased the Doctor, in a sickening teens-in-love way.
He's 900. I only got into Doctor Who in he 3rd series. So I don't know wthat Rose is like. :'(
i can't believe we have to wait until 2009 until the next series
rose sucks martha is ok
John Simm is the next doctor, supposedly.
although we're meant to be be getting the humanoid clone thingys (sonairtrans(sp?)) AND Davros arn't we
Who is RTD?Russel T Davis. And yes, I believe its on Xmas day.
When is the christmas Speacil. It's not on Christmas day is it?
Who is really going to be watching TV on christmas day?It's one of the things I look forward to on Christmas Day.
I am looking forward to getting my presents. I will be putting music on my new phone and I will be playing my new games. I will just have to record it because I am not missing it.Always about the presents... ¬¬
Doctor Who... Meh, the worse show on BBC in my opinion.
Either that, or I have no taste. ... I should actually give them series another shot, I was bored to death when I saw one episode.
doctor. who. is. the. greatest. show. on. the. face. of. the. earth.Erm, as far as I know. David Tennant won't be leaving the show anytime soon. His regenartion are just false rumors. And I don't think the Dalek will return this series...well I hope not anyway...
i luff it so much
like omg he regenerated and rose tyler got trapped in another papellel world and that new martha person is kewl and omg catherine tate was on the christmas on and like wow, martha left and kabam! right in my face bo dies even though in the future jack is the face of boe and like wow soon catharine tate will be back and jack will be back with torchwood and the doctor is soon to regenerate.
people are saying he will regenerate into the person that played the latest master, but that would spoilt it
aparntly catherine tate is coming back and martha jones might visit then and again and stuff, complete randomness
anyways, i cant wait to see teh darlek again, the one that escaped, bring on christmas special with teh titanic!
Which one did you see. If you saw the first of a double parter that'll be why. The first of double parters are just setting the scene.

So 'The Empty Child', 'Bad Wolf, 'The Impossible Planet' and 'Human Nature' were none of them dramatically valid in their own right?
Actually, its the one where the doctor bring that girl back to her time period. And when the girl saw his mother, she was shocked, and that was because she came back to this period 12 months after she left. I did watch through a whole episode, but I just classed it as a boring show.

Maybe Cybermen will be involved when Rose returns...
There have been many rumblings about Davros returning, so I m guessing its getting more and more likely.
In the Colin Baker Davros eps, he was just a head that moved left and right. HOWEVER, in part 2, it was reveal that was not the real Davros and the real Davros entered in his more familor state after the fake was destroyed.*Chuckle* The depths of your knowledge never fail to amaze me Lapras, though I still want credits as I was working off of memory. Still, he will be 'updated' - my little brother DEMANDS his dalek chair returns (and I think that's a must), but the rest of him IMO should be a special effect. Possibly an animatronic/CG cross.
I know because I have it on DVD.
In August 2007, The Sun reported that Sir Ben Kingsley was in talks to play Davros in the 2008 series.[8] In an October 2007 interview with The Guardian, Kingsley denied any knowledge of the claim, saying "I've never heard about this.".[9]
On October 8, 2007, the Daily Star reported that the Series Four finale would featuring the Doctor battling Davros alongside several of his old companions.[10] This has not been confirmed by the BBC or any official sources. Patrick Stewart has also been linked with the role. [11] This has also not been confirmed by the BBC.
Bring on Davros. But you have got to realise that Wikipedia is the most unrealiable peace of information you can get on the net. Like once I saw that the newtenth doctor will have a lemon for a head. See what I mean?
If that's true, it was probably for about thirty seconds/a few minutes. Now, how long has it said that the Tenth Doctor is played by David Tennant? A much longer period of time, I'd imagine. So what fraction of that time was Wikipedia actually incorrect?
Yes, but its not ALWAYS wrong you know.
From Wiki
Should be noted that a Davros DVD Boxset was recently released, so that could be another hint of a Davros comeback...

So far it appears people are picking famous bald actors & making wikipedia entries for them being Davros - if I was making another... if I was making a false entry in Wiki, thats what I'd do.Should be noted that Patrick Stewart had been one of the many considerations for the 8th Doctor for the movie.
Seeing as the Davros has always been a man in near complete head make-up, there is no reason why the actor playing Davros has to be bald.. or even feature physically! I still say to keep minds open!!
Very interesting, though I think Patrick Stewart has had & is still under some pretty demanding theatre comitments for a couple of plays (all the best Star Trek Captains do Shakespear.. yes, especially Shatner). Given that Doctor Who has had quite a gap I doubt there are that many companions that would be in a position to return - mainly McCoy's & McGanns.. they're probably the only ones that may get away with being 'of their age' rather than very aged versions.
As I've said - I hope the series closer has Rose dying... PERMINENTLY.
Should be noted that Patrick Stewart had been one of the many considerations for the 8th Doctor for the movie.That did seem rather unrealistic... Firstly, how would he have known that she was going into the void, when he was in the parallel universe...And secondly, he would have been pushed into the void before he had time to catch her...
As for Rose dying, good. I was dissappointed when they went with that cheesey bit where her dad saved her from the void. :dry:
That did seem rather unrealistic... Firstly, how would he have known that she was going into the void, when he was in the parallel universe...And secondly, he would have been pushed into the void before he had time to catch her...

Erm, as far as I know. David Tennant won't be leaving the show anytime soon. His regenartion are just false rumors. And I don't think the Dalek will return this series...well I hope not anyway...Yeah, David said that Cath had gone up omn some show and said he was leaving for a joke... DAVID MUST NOT LEAVE!!!!
Maybe Cybermen will be involved when Rose returns...

Who knows... maybe the Doctor is about to get shot...until Rose runs in, and dies. So she's only shown alive for 10 seconds. :tongue2:
The Queen! She was great.
And the Queen sucked. They should have crashed into her.
I understood the end until The Doctor kissed her before she disappeared into space. I thought that was a hologram...?
It wasn't a hologram... It was the last stardusty atoms of her mostly lost self. There wasn't enough of her left to be a full, conscious person, but there was the echo of it still there. As I said earlier, it was very Phillip Pullman, that bit.
The human eye can see atoms. You're looking at them now.
It was a collection of atoms just like a real person is. Just, less firm.
Oh, I was referring to the version of her that still looked like her, the one he kissed.
For the stardusty floaty blue Tinkerbell bits...
Hm, well... Maybe they were still clumped together?
Or alternatively, artistic license.
Some would say that time travel and being aged centuries by a laser beam and defeating millions of evil witches with a Harry Potter spell also contradict scientific facts.
Time travel can't happen, cause time dosn't exist.
And, yeah, time doesn't exist, what?
The Sun reports another story.
*POSSIBLE SPOILER*
Apparently, 1 episode will not have the Doctor in it. Instead, it ll have the 3 assistants (Rose, Martha and Donna) controling the Tardis looking for the Doc (Whos lost in space apparently)

I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed, but I've noticed the Angels on the crimbo ep have a striking resemblence to the robots on the Tom Baker story: "Robots of Death". I mean, they are both servant robots and are both programmed to kill people by some nutter. And they look very similar. Do you think the writers of the crimbo ep got their ideas from 'The Robots of Death"?
And, yeah, time doesn't exist, what?
Well, I just be happy to see Davros, and what the writers of today can do with him to make him a real baddie.It was the first doctor's granddaughter's school.
Afterall, the last Davros story involved him taking over a school from what I ve heard... 0.o
It was the first doctor's granddaughter's school.
Anyway, I'm not really bothered about Davros. I much prefer the original idea that they were green blobs and turned themselves into Daleks after the nuclear war with the Thals on Skaro. (a bit like the cybermen on Mondas) I did think it was funny though that the doctor kept freezing him all the time.
Does anyone know if the Cybermen are coming back at all?
Does anyone know if the Cybermen are coming back at all?
Well, there happens to be quite a lot of them floating around in the void between the worlds. So I guess if Davros (or the last Dalek) want more Daleks, they'd suck them out of the void and possibly some Cybermen would come as well.Dont forget, that the cybermen arent just from the parallel earth. Thats only a tiny part of their history. I really want the ones from mondas to come back. That legacy rocked, wheras the parralel earth one kinda sucked. And their is a great possiblity there is some left in the ordinary universe because if their planet travelled across the universe, who knows where they may have gone too and took over. So its not impossible for Russel T Davies to bring them back and how can anyone just dump what storylines have become a major part of dr who's legacy? Its like dumping skaro from the daleks.

This is bit of a spoiler but THE DOCTOR IS EXTERMINATED!!!!!!!!
He is zapped by a dalek. Dunno ,but maybe Doctor Who kept something under their belt for once.
It's just been filmed in CardiffWe wanted a source, not an obvious statement. :P
Does anyone argee with me when I say they ve got comeback mad? I mean, Rose, Martha, Donna, Captain Jack, Sarah Jane and most likely Davros, all returning in the 4th Season... o.o

I have just seen the advert for the new series can't wait for it to start ;D
I'm really ready for a new Doctor.
This is bit of a spoiler but THE DOCTOR IS EXTERMINATED!!!!!!!loldongs
Actully, don't we have 4 Doctors to go? He didnt regenerate into the first Doctor from nothing (Least I hope not) so that would mean he's only regenerated 9 times right?
The 13 regeneration rule is old though, right? They could easily retcon it.Yes, but then you get angry fanboys shaking fists at the writers for not being faith to the rule.
loldongs
CAECILIUS EST IN HORTO.
What I mean is:
1st Doctor to 2nd Doctor= 1st regeneration
2nd Doctor to 3rd Doctor= 2nd regeneration
3rd Doctor to 4th Doctor= 3rd regeneration
4th Doctor to 5th Doctor= 4th regeneration
5th Doctor to 6th Doctor= 5th regeneration
6th Doctor to 7th Doctor= 6th regeneration
7th Doctor to 8th Doctor= 7th regeneration
8th Doctor to 9th Doctor= 8th regeneration
9th Doctor to 10th Doctor= 9th regeneration
And each time lord has 13 regenerations right? That would mean he has 4 left right?
:D :D :DNOWAY
Yay... Caecilius and Metella!
I'm holding out for some Grumio though!
CAECILIUS EST IN HORTO.
Ah well, if I pray hard enough, maybe they ll bring back Romana for the 5 series as the new companion. She was quite a cool companion back in the day. :)
The 13 regeneration rule is old though, right? They could easily retcon it.They did it for the Master
Yes, but then you get angry fanboys shaking fists at the writers for not being faith to the rule.I think the Master is not truely gone. Russell said and I quote "I had the hand pick up the watch so any further writers do have a good reason to bring back The Master.
And I doubt the series can go on forever. They did kill off the rest of the Timelords (Unless they re all in Watches...), the Master, a lot of Daleks, yeah. That seems very climatic.
David Tennant is an awesome Doctor, that's a horrible thing to say.
Im not sure about why companions are advertised. I liked the concept of, for instace, people like Mr Copper (Voyage of the Damned) joining, in that unexpected way. I know he didnt, but if he did, or that pompus rich guy did, would've made my day, instead of them being anounced as usual.
I don't know if Tennant was advertised as the Doctor before Parting of the Ways was broadcast, but that was unexpected.
However, people saying OMGWANTNEWDOCTOR are pretty silly, imo, because it's just bringing the programme to an end (unless of course, the reasons I explained above are deployed). I hope that it doesn't leak about Ser 3 Ep 13 during the series, because I honest to God want a surprise D: It's probably going to be Davros, but it could be somebody else.
CAECILIUS EST IN HORTO.
You are misled. The process a Time Lord goes through to change their body is called Regeneration. "A Time Lord has thirteen lives," says the Eighth Doctor.
You may be wondering why Captain Jack said, "So, this new regeneration... kinda kinky" to describe the Doctor's current form. Well, for one thing, the Doctor did actually explain to him properly so he might have improvising. Russell T Davis needs to be carefully when thing s contradict true statements (ironically, they're known as "paradoxes").
does anyone remember a little character called the Master? He had used up all his regenerations and YET he was brought back with what appears to be a full set, to fight the timewar.Actually (Using my knowledge from watching old episodes and my latest annual) I can tell you what happened.
Caecilius et Metella sedetabant in horto. (Is that right?)
There now everyone's happy!
Also I've heard that Tennant is planning to stay longer that Tom Baker otherwise known as the longest running doctor ever (7 years as the doctor)!!
Actually (Using my knowledge from watching old episodes and my latest annual) I can tell you what happened.
All time lords have a MAXIMUM of 12 regenerations. However after the master carelessly using up all of his he transported himself into the body of a Trakenite and began his cycle again. However after the Darlek's executed him the 8th Doctor took his ashes back to Gallifrey. However they transformed into a "blob" and took over an ambulance drive. Finally before we saw him last he was sucked into the Eye of Harmony (the TARDIS's power source) after trying to steal the doctors remaining regenerations (in the doctor who movie) and then when he was brought back he would either of been given 12 new regenerations or kept his old ones left. Either way he has had many more than anyother time lord
Caecilius et Metella sedebant in horto is the correct, but mehReally? I thought it was Caecilius et Metella in horto sedebant.
Well, the Ood's ep is set on their home planet, so unless the Doctor blows up the planet... o.o
Yeah, but the Doc couldn't wipe out a whole race (Cept maybe the Daleks, which he regrets not doing in Genesis) just like that. Wheres the Ood love?
Noooo.. the Ood are too cool to get wiped out =c
*hugs them all*
they're better than Cybermen anywho.. *ducks*
Cybermen ducks? *faints from cootness*Shes ducking from the invasion of angry Cybermen fans. :P
Shes ducking from the invasion of angry Cybermen fans. :P
Really? I thought it was Caecilius et Metella in horto sedebant.
Look what you started now, you...
CAECILIUS EST IN HORTO.Caecilius non est in horto, Caecilius est in episode 2. The Pompeii one, naturally.
As I said...
They're not revealing the title of Episode 12, apparently it'd give too much away.
Plus does the name of the final episode "Journey's End", point towards a death (Rose/Donna)?
am i bovvererd
Russell T Jackass said in an interview that everything the Beast said comes true. Hence, Rose dies in battle.You sure they re not going to rip us off with her ending up in Pete's World?
I hope they bring the cybermen back next year and I hope they are the mondasian/telosian cybermen, not the parralell earth thing (they CANT just abandon the mondas cybermen: Their legacy is almost as great as the scaro daleks) because, admittedly, the storlines for parrallel earth cybermen aren't as good as the current universe cybermen.
cutest tiny fat people that look like marshmallows ever <3
ZOMG Rose Tyler in it! Walking away into nothing as well! ZOMGZOMGZOMG
The only complain was the aliens look like rejects from a CBeebies show, but still.
So I take it Rose ll be this series's equivalent to Bad Wolf, Torchwood and Mr Saxon then?
What makes you say that? Lots of people are, but I wonder why?
There's not really much to suggest she'll feature again until episode 11.
Unique.. and utterly ridiculous.Could you tell me what moral ambiguity is?
Besides, moral ambiguity's the key thing with this episode's antagonists.
What makes you say that? Lots of people are, but I wonder why?Didnt see or hear anything that might be repeated episode after episode like the other 3 things.

Just you watch, Rose wondering about in Roman get up next week... XD
But you don't know what we might have missed.. after all, how many times did we really pick up on it saying 'Bad Wolf' until it was spelt out for us in Boom Town?
What was THAT? Adipose? Erm, IMO, that was a BAD opening episode.Steven Moffat's double parter is later in the series, the names are Silence in the Libary and River Run's. Girl in the Fireplace won an award. The same director though who did Girl in the Fireplace will be directing the Moffat double parter.
Episode 7 sounds promising. Giant wasps! And ep3 for Ood.
Is there an episode by that guy who wrote The Empty Child and Blink this time round? Hope so, they were both amazing. Girl in the Fireplace was alright I guess.
I noticed Bad Wolf way before Boom Town.
What was THAT? Adipose? Erm, IMO, that was a BAD opening episode.
Qualify that statement? Back it up?
Freaking. Monsters. Made. Of. Fat.
But.. they aren't monsters. If there's any villain at all, it's Miss Foster.
They weren't monsters, they were Adipose children. There 'breeding' planet had been lost, but Miss Foster knew that breeding on a class 5 planet was illegal under the darkness thing, but ignored it, and Stacey died of a result.
THEY'RE BABIES
Exactly! Why do people think every episode needs some horrendous, hideous alien monster to make it valid/good television?
I didn't, you meanie. D:
I was referring to the fact RTD somehow found the need to include creatures MADE OF FAT.
I didn't, you meanie. D:

I wasn't referring to you in particular.
And so what? What's wrong with creatures made of fat?
Yes, I agree there. :3
Ah, sorry.
It just seems... silly, even for Doctor Who, does it not? o.o
she hasnt seen the new ones yet but is busting to see them and she thinks the Dr is kinda cute, and wants to KISS him
she said all that in my T & D class
I THINK IM GONNA HURRLE :wacko: :unsure:
Thats nothing! I keep thinking the guy who plays Phil Mitchall's going to be Davros XD XD XD
I rather liked that. My dad thought it was Davros behind the curtain. Poor fellow.
Hmmm, Christmas with Cybermen?
Mind you, the Sun have been wrong at times... :nowink:
Yes... David Bowie playing Davros.. not proved wrong yet, but it's only a matter of time.David Bowie was going to be in Unicon and the wasp, The Davros thing was a joke and David Bowie quoted this when he saw the story, "It is absolute Tish tosh"
I'm placing my bet on another return from the Master.
David Bowie was going to be in Unicon and the wasp, The Davros thing was a joke and David Bowie quoted this when he saw the story, "It is absolute Tish tosh"
Then again at one point the Sun said that Tennent was going to retire from being the Doctor halfway through this series.
The Sun is not a reliable source.Its the most tabloidy tabloid newspaper who wld want trust something made up
Its the most tabloidy tabloid newspaper who wld want trust something made upGood point. an article.
At last, a proper other planet episode! Took you awhile BBC!
Pretty good episode, its nice they brought the Ood back, because they were kind of overshadowed by the promise of the Devil last time. Nice little twist with the brains and the circle, though I would of made the giant brain a little different to a human one. I think there's potential in the Ood and I hope they become a regular alien/villain. Okay, they re not evil, but they can be pretty cool when they kill and put on those red eyes.
Yeah, another good episode. Series 4 is on a run at the mo. :)
Ood are too damn sweet for their own good <3Too true. I could just hug one!
bless em..
Also, an interesting end with the mention of the Doctor's song coming to an end...
I have a theory about the ending of the the Ood episode, when it made the remark about the Doctor's song coming to an end...Good theory. I liked the different options you could have on the translatre! D'oh!
Basically, the Ood's song was about their suffering in captivity. I see it as the Doctor's song is about the sadness and pain of losing Rose. Meaning what the Ood said, meant that his song of pain and suffering was coming to and end... Rose's return. =p
I missed tonight's episode due to my friend getting Mario Kart Wii~. I'll see it tomorrow though. ^^
What are you, 5 years old?
or indeed, a Rose wearing an Ood wig..
Which one? I watched Peter Davidson's encounter with him recently.
Anyway I've been watching Darvos on DVD.
Which one? I watched Peter Davidson's encounter with him recently.It had Tom baker as the doctor. AHH what was it called I'll find out
Watching Mr Davidson's last adventure as the Doctor right now. XD
It had Tom baker as the doctor. AHH what was it called I'll find out
Genesis of the Daleks.Could of been Destiny of the Daleks too. :P
Judoon and Daleks? Didnt an interspecies fight result badly last time...You're correct! Can't wait for Sonatarans!
Oh wait, they may be hired to find naughty Caan or Davros. At least i think thats what they're supposed to do.
Sarah Jane will be returning as The Sarah Jane adventures were the most popular kids' programme of 2007 and 5th of 21st Century.
I guess it was lucky that there was a racket and ball lying around for him the get past the Sontaran with. o.O'
Interesting though in how she was linked to Unit, as a Doctor.
I guess it was lucky that there was a racket and ball lying around for him the get past the Sontaran with. o.O'Thats nothing! You should watch Destiny of the Daleks and see how Tom Baker defeats a Dalek with a Hat! A HAT!
(http://img520.imageshack.us/img520/5127/58155044ke3.png)You re right, it looks more like an Ood in a Rose Wig. :P
It doesnt really look like Rose...
It looks like a man in a wig.

0_0Wasn't surprised, remember the 2012 olympic episode?(sorry cant remember the name but it was in the 2nd series) There was a line where rose said something like kids are so annoying(something like that).And the doctor said: I was a father once.

Its not on next week due to a certain Song Contest... ::)Stupid Eurovision that's been on for a while? that wasnt hard to guess
I sure hope that that episode was a jokey one. I wasn't that impressed with the large wasp... originality out the window? Using the magnifying glass to injure it as well seemed a bit too conveinient.I read an interview with Gareth Roberts(writer of Unicorn and the Wasp) and it was meant to be a jokey one. Steven Moffat's double parter next week. Yes! Reference to new but old series. Carrionites trapped in the orb. But that was the writer who trapped the Carrionites.
Meh. But its entertainment though.
Steven Moffat's double parter next week.
Didnt you see my last post? T.T
http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/s4/news/latest/080520_news_01
Think about it - almost every episode of the season will be The Empty Child-quality
there'll be no needlessly-sappy romance stories,
no ridiculous first episodes,
and best of all, less DoctorxRose music videos on YouTube!
Good riddance, RTD, you jerk.
hmmm very interesting... I have to admit that it seems very good but I do not feel that it is Davros as we do not see who it is but maybe is *shot by an arrow.* UCK!If it wasnt, it would be the biggest let down in the history of let downs... :P
Right...The trailer on youtube is dalek heavy...
Did anyone get my joke with the Restaurant?
Donna Noble has left the library, Donna Noble has been saved.THAT IS DONNA NOBLE! That what freaked me out! 0_0
Umm, WHO THE HECK IS THAT WOMAN.
I think,as well as my dad, think that she came from the future and meet the Doctor. But she asked too soon and they seen each other too early.
Ooh, odds on River Song being the seer girl from the future?
my Friends says River song is the Doctors wife.
think about it the first doctor travelled with his granddaughter.
Moffat has seriously done a good job this time. And isn't a million million a trillion?
Which confused me because these monster things were meant to be like.. the size of dust particles.. but the swarms were big enough to fill and maneouver a suit. Filling the entire library, the entire planet, there would surely be many more than a million million? Isn't that about.. one bug thing for every seven people on Earth. You'd think there were a lot more o.o
River Song significance:
Planet of the Ood quote: "I fear your song must end soon."
No need to discuss your "ideas" it's pretty obvious who knows what happens (2nd post above). Its stupid theory about the song you lot are comming to. his song is to end meaning regeneration. every regeneration might haeve a song so think about that. Ita leaving time for david. Bad wolf was the death of ecleston. the words of the devil were rose's. and the oods is daivds.
Bad wolf was the death of ecleston. the words of the devil were rose's. and the oods is daivds.
the children! THE CHILDREN! THEY FEAR ME! I FEAR THEM! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!Welcome to the horror of parenthood. XP
The thought of it...it terrifies me!
I only just realised the Doctor Moon business.
The moon above the library is a doctor moon (hence the name Dr. Moon), but has been computerised as a real person in Charlotte's world.
That didnt take me long to figure out. Kinda got it when they said it on the show (A Doctor Moon circling the planet+Doctor Moon= same thing).Yeah me too. Loved it as well. No one would let me have their night light. Next one looks good. RTD wrote it. Has Lesley Sharp in it. And son of the great late Patrick Troughton, David Troughton.
River Song's children they were.
ror so... the doctor's?
I'm just remembering how they said to Donna, "when you're not here, it's like we're not here".
It struck me that the writer of those episode is possibly a big Ghost in the Shell fan =3
Good episodes though ^^
I looked on Wikipedia and this Episode 12's name, The Stolen Earth.
Not a surprise considering the plot... Still, I really liked the 'War on Skaro' rumours, even though yeah, Skaro was destroyed years ago.
Doctors' daughter directed as well, I think ;DWhut?
Anyway, are there only 12 episodes this series, or is it another 3 parter?
And next week's look good. Where does the thing on her back come from?

Btw, what's the name of the actress who played Sky?
yet did the shadow actually get defeated at the end? If it can survive outside, then surely it would have been able to escape from the body.
THEY KILLED THE DOCTOR OFF! THAT'S IT! NO MORE DOCTOR WHO!
It's the Doctor from an alternate timeline.ORLY?
It's the Doctor from an alternate timeline.I know that. I was playing around. I said that to my cousin who loves doctor who...She got a bit sad after I said that.
Jethro was epic win. Like, when it was copying everyone he was just like "Hi my name's Jethro =D" and "666!"Is he suppose to be an goth? Or emo? Or Satanist? I don't know...(I'm half Emo, Half nerd. beat that!)
I couldn't stop laughing D:
suppose to be an goth? Or emo? Or Satanist? I don't know...
But which timeline is the Doctor from?
THEY KILLED THE DOCTOR OFF! THAT'S IT! NO MORE DOCTOR WHO!
Heh, I know you were joking but it would be interesting. Jenny could take it over. Welcome to Jenni Who!Good points. Donna giving birth to a Racnoss.
We pretty much know the Doctor survives due to Steven Moffat taking directorship of the next series. THOUGH, possibly the Doctor WE know dies and the alternate timeline Doctor is the one who carries on?
That would be a way of altogether change the fundamentals of the show. Remove the Doctor's knowledge of Donna & therefor he may also not have experienced Martha (as he will not have recovered from the loss of Rose as much due to not having Donna to confide in).

Jethro was epic win. Like, when it was copying everyone he was just like "Hi my name's Jethro =D" and "666!"
I couldn't stop laughing D:
Quite a good episode... seemed very light after the two-parter before, but that's probably just me...
So...did anyone see the news in the sun? Or heard of it?
Click for Spoilers (http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/tv/article1299482.ece)
Next Ep looks like win. Anyone else notice Rose/Billie was talking strangely?
I read in the paper the other day that she'd forgotten how to do her Rose accent :P
A world without the doctor, unimaginable. Without him, no Marth (:D) Sarah Jane, Torchwood (bar Jack).
And guys, I couldda sworen I saw the Rhinos from Series 3 in the trailer!Yeah I saw them aswell. Stupid Jadoon
Even without The Doctor, the world can't get rid of John-SHOUT EVERYTHING- Barrowman :(
Wonder if any of them will use their pens from series 3 to beat the Daleks? XD XD XD
"Vision is impaired! I cannot see!"
XD
Well, I must say, that was truely fantastic! Welldone Mr. Davies. I've been waiting all week for that one, but I think I'm gonna be even more anxious to watch this one. The whole series fitted together really well, and it's been set up for a fantastic finale. Seems like the TARDIS gave off it's warning signal, but I wonder how the Doctor knew it meant to end of the Universe... =pRed= Doomsday? Can't possibly mean fluffy bunnies... XP
Doctor Who Confidential has pretty much confirmed that who we suspected is the 'Ultimate Boss'.Yeah, they kinda ruined that, but we all knew anyway...

I was thinking "What about the Master/Mr. Saxon and the Toclafane invasion incident?", then I realised that Without the Doctor's Intervention, Prof. Yana would never have known about the watch and remembered his Time Lord past. Thus he would never have nicked off with the TARDIS and become Mr. Saxon anyway.Also without the Doctor there wouldn't be a TARDIS to nick.
Another thing I liked about Turn Left was how every companion's fate was explained. I was thinking "What about the Master/Mr. Saxon and the Toclafane invasion incident?", then I realised that Without the Doctor's Intervention, Prof. Yana would never have known about the watch and remembered his Time Lord past. Thus he would never have nicked off with the TARDIS and become Mr. Saxon anyway.I listened carefully when the tank fired the missile at the Racnoss Ship. Originally the officer said 'Order's from Mr. Saxon. Fire at will.', yet this time he just shouted 'FIRE!'
Red= Doomsday? Can't possibly mean fluffy bunnies... XP
And sonic screwdriver upgrade.
Seeing as doctor who will come back in 2010 i wont be suprised a new tardis interior is made. And sonic screwdriver upgrade. About time it happenedWe re getting 3 specials in 09. 2010 is series 5. :)
well this should be a lesson. What you do will result into some better,or worse as a whole.Well I hope that me, leaving at 8:20 rather than 8:15 tomorrow morning, won't result in half of the planet exploding in a ball of flames... =p It's not much of a lesson, because there's nothing to learn from it... because most of the time, you don't know what will happen as a result of your actions...
You don't think the woman with the Judoon is the Rani?
Nope. Say hello to one of three Shadow Proclamation people.hello Shadow Proclamation.
I watched Saturday's episode this morning as I was out on Saturday and recorded it.
I haven't really been watching Doctor Who, but I will watch it more now as this episode showed me what I have been missing. I've only watched a few episodes this series, and they all seemed pretty good. I don't know which ones they were though, and I don't know why I haven't been watching it properly =P
the Daleks were wiped from time itself.
the Daleks were wiped from time itself.They weren't wiped from time, Bad wolf Rose spread every atom of there existance.

You know what would be nice? A finale that didn't HAVE to centre around Daleks. Show some love for Cybermen!
I'm writing some scripts, and some of them will end up in the inbox of RTD so could find it and comment on the names. And I'll post some first scenes
Not bad offer. I got a Sontaran boxset!
You know what would be nice? A finale that didn't HAVE to centre around Daleks. Show some love for Cybermen!Erm Utopia, sound of drums and the last time lord? not darleks?
Erm Utopia, sound of drums and the last time lord? not darleks?
I think Sarah overreacts for someone who only had a quick brush with the Daleks once. o.o It was once, right? Just Genesis? Then again, considering it sounds like they've all seen the millions of ships in the sky, things would look pretty grim.
Still, lack of faith in the Doctor. >= Unless it's after THAT scene...
There's a Sontaran boxset? And thanks for the link.
BUT FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS HOLY! PLEASE NO RIFTS OR ASS-PULLING TRICKS!
Uhm, ass-pulling tricks? We ARE still talking Dr. Who right?
Have you seen them lately? The Messiah like effect with the doctor when he was 900 years old and look like doblin? Or ripping apart the void just to put a junk load of daleks inside it?(with a hint of cyberman.) Or even even wiping out the entire fleet of darleks thanks to rose! (with a very steamy kiss may i ask.)
He can't die since he's the Face of Boa in the future...
Plus what about Captain Jack? He can't die... surely that's got to be an advantage? Stop being camp and make a plan!
Romana's regeneration 'scene' is pretty funny. She tries on about half a dozen different faces, each of them an old villain or familiar ally, none of them the Doctor particularly likes (or they're too tall/short compared to him), before settling on using the face of a previous character.Ah, Destiny of the Daleks. One of Tom Baker's best. :)
OMGWhile Davros was the worst kept secret in the galaxy, this could be the best. o.o
What the hell? Regeneration? What? Why? Who? How?
What!?
Tonight's episode was brilliant and I can't wait for next week. and I hope the Doctor doesn't completely regenerate since I like David Tennant as the Doctor
Also, did anyone hear Harriet Jones' reference to Mr. Copper from the Christmas special?
Mr copper? who's he?The alien old man from Voyage of the Damned, who the Doctor brought down to earth and ended up with loads of money...
he splits in two. This is backed up by set pictures showing Tennant on Bad Wolf Bay wearing both outfits (the blue one and the brown one), in different shots.
...without forgetting it due to the explosion of stuff that happened, how about that Paul O Grady cameo? Awesome. XD
He either splits into two Tennants or we get "the other Doctor" (the 2008 Christmas Special's amnesia-ridden parallel Doctor, played by some Morrisey guy with an assistant called Rosita, ahur) for half the episode.
I was serious about the amnesia-ridden other Doctor and Rosita. o.o They're in the Christmas special. (My earlier post made it sound like a joke)
And Davison, by the way. ;) Easy mistake.
It mentions someone dying. Martha is in Torchwood series 3 so it can't be her, Sarah Jane is doing her second series, Rose probably will reuse the time vortex to pwn the Daleks, Jack's immortal. I think it's Donna. Why would she leave the Doctor at the end? She isn't trying to distract her love for him. So it must be her. Then again, if my Rose theory is correct, Rose could bring her back to life, like Jack. I suppose they could be a couple
BUT then Rose 'died', therefore anything can still happen.
When did she die?
I think he's referring to when she 'died' in the series 2 finale.
After the Battle of Canary Wharf she couldn't be found anywhere, no body, no trace of her since she was trapped in the parallel universe, thus she was declared officially dead.

Best episode ever, 9.99999999/10 RTD has brought Davros back properly and like he was. But did we expect the regenaration?
4 days on... I'm still on the edge of my seat.
I have last episode news!!!!!
In the final episode, Davros will return and also will, Captain Jack, Sarah Jane, Rose Tyler and Jackie Tyler. This is bit of a spoiler but THE DOCTOR IS EXTERMINATED!!!!!!!!
Here are some episode names
1.Partners in Crime
2.Fires of Pompeii
3.Planet of the Ood
4.Sontaran Stratagem
8.Silence in The Libary(This is the Steven Moffat's story, the award winning writer who wrote Empy Child/Doctor Dances, Girl in the Fireplace and Blink
10.Midnight
what if (and just a guess) the Dalek was was set to stun XP XP XP It's worth hoping for =D
I said the Doctor was going to be exterminated!
On a rather unrelated note... did anyone else notice that when Harriet Jones was sending out the sub-wave network... the beeping, when Rose was with Donna's family, when the signal was arriving was in the same four-note rhythm as the Master's drumming?I noticed that too, and started tapping as well. I was sure there wasn't a connection, but maybe it's just something that was used in general... Not sure...
One second.. I've just read that.. since when do the ultimate pitiless machines of death have a stun setting? Do they activate it by sitting on cushions drinking tea? *lol*
I noticed that too, and started tapping as well. I was sure there wasn't a connection, but maybe it's just something that was used in general... Not sure...
My mum has a theory about his regeneration: Coz the Medusa Cascade is 1 second ahead of the rest of the universe, maybe they can find a way to go back 1 second and stop him regenerating? It's an interesting idea me thinks
I have looked into the Dalek survival guide I have found that there is a stun. It just that it's so rare for a dalek to have their gun on stun that it was thought that they didn't have it.
It's a nice book. made in the 90's and It's still usful, even though some of the data is now redundant.
The 3rd Doctor gets his leg disabled by a Dalek beam in 'Planet of the Daleks', actually.I thought that was a Troughton story.
I thought that was a Troughton story.
I heard a rumour that James Nesbitt is the next Doctor. Please don't let it be so! David Tennant is so perfect as The Doctor!
I heard a rumour that James Nesbitt is the next Doctor. Please don't let it be so! David Tennant is so perfect as The Doctor!Nah, watched him on the Graham Norton Show earlier and it was news to him. :P
Nah, watch him on Graham Norton earlier and it was news to him. :P
Is Rose in a like... half-relationship with Donna...? Technically? o____O' Since, well, half of 'the no.2 Doctor' was part-Donna.She's just responding to her personality. ;D
The inclusion of Ex-Prime Minister Hilary Jones.She's called Harriet Jones
I think the 'Doctor Donna' thing that the Ood were celebrating should have been brought through other episodes so we would remember it a bit more. I had completely forgotten the the Ood had prophecised such things (But that's just me... Everyone may have remembered.)But that's what makes it so great. If it had been repeated over-and-over again throughout the series, I'm sure everyone would be "oh, so The Doctor and Donna get some sort of fusion?"
And we don't hear about the stash of nuclear warheads under the Earth's surface until this episode, which, as far as we know, is VERY conveinient as a last-ditch attempt for survival... If they had mentioned it in a previous episode, perhaps...They kinda did. Making a big deal over that 'key' thing.
But that's what makes it so great. If it had been repeated over-and-over again throughout the series, I'm sure everyone would be "oh, so The Doctor and Donna get some sort of fusion?"Meh. It didn't have that affect on me.
This way, it just sounds like the Ood missunderstanding the phrase "Doctor, Donna, Friend."They kinda did. Making a big deal over that 'key' thing.
Meh. It didn't have that affect on me.
Mention it at least once more, thats all. Very subtely.
I was sadened that Donna left, maybe she could return and start the relationship again with the Doctor?
If she did that, she would sort of... Um... Die. A lot.
am i the only one who thought that episode (and infact series) was actually awful?Yh i was hoping for a death....... but then no one dies. What happened to the prophercy???. Daleks were indeed used too much now they have to stop using them now they've completely gone well except Davros. I hope there arent any Daleks for the nest 2 seasons since i didnt like how every season had them.
i seriously just got bored it dragged on too much and was just too...cheesey in places. too long. too boring. too OBVIOUS.
and no one died.
awful to be honest.
Now on to the special. If the paralel worlds are closed how did the cybus cybers get through?Precisely. They probably got through while all this was going on. =p
But won't he have a bit of Donna in him too? o.o That might annoy her (Not that I care, bugger off Rose...)
At least Rose is happy now XD She technically has her man.
Sorry to sound dumb, but what are Cybershades? o.o
The Ring If you notice carefully belonged to the master, it falls of his burning body at the end of his final episode and a female hand picks it up, I originally thought that this would be his wife but it is a possibility it is doctor donna, due to the future complex that a time traveller has no coresponding time line as he/she interupts it at chance.No, it's not the same ring. The ring that falls off the Master is round, it's bigger and has the 'timelord symbols' around it.
But who will be the Doctor's companion for The Christmas Special!
Btw, the Cybermen are in the void, so it can't be Lumic's Parallel ones.
I've been watching old 4th Doctor stories lately, and they're great. City of Death is as brilliant as the Classic fans say, and I watched The Seeds of Doom today, which was a bit lengthy (6 episodes), but really good.I got the Sontaran boxset. I don't know why Invasion of Time is so slated. It's good ep. I liked The Time Warrior as well.
Baker is honestly my favourite Doctor and I think Tennant draws a lot of his character from him.
From The Seeds of Doom:
"Are you leaving so soon, Doctor?"
"Why not? I have my toothbrush." *takes out toothbrush, grins, and runs off*
it was kinnda obviously they would be the parallel ones, seeing as the parallel universes were opened up again... though i'd have liked to have seen something new come through the from a parallel universe instead.. something from somewhere where all the laws of physics are completely different.. or something like that.. something you couldn't posibly expect with abilities you can'y comprehend..
still, maybe thats asking a bit much
Did no one actually pick up on the little comment to Gwen and what it actually was in reference to?I did. The Unquiet Dead. Gwyneth was played by Eve Myles(Who plays Gwen) and they both live in Cardiff.
I did. The Unquiet Dead. Gwyneth was played by Eve Myles(Who plays Gwen) and they both live in Cardiff.Ah, I was a little confused with the reference, but couldn't think think of it. I see, thats interesting...
Still, he's doing Torchwood, and has yet to broadcast his final Doctor Who episode.
Jenny is to return in a special. Maybe they'll be news in DWM? I hope so.
I think they've got to be careful if they show anything of the time war. Since it's pretty much the centre of Doctor Who, they need to plan it out well, before showing anything of it.I think they should make it into a movie.
did anyone else notice the designs on Lazarus' walls and computer screens were an animated version of the design on the Masters ring?
Sorry to ruin all this talk, but I was watching "The unquiet dead" S1 E3.
And Gwenth said "All those people rushing about. Half naked, for shame. And the noise... and the metal boxes racing past... and the birds in the sky... they're metal as well. Metal birds with people in them. People flying. And you - you've flown so far, further than anyone! The things you've seen... the darkness... the big bad wolf-- "
Now either that is a very long plan (unlikly because at this point she was not supposed to leave in season 2) or it is the biggest coinkydink in history
I guess that bringing any of it back with the Doctor in, it would mean bringing back Paul Mcann, in whatever way is needed.Would be nice, since the 8th Doctor was wasted for that crappy movie (Which I resaw recently. Its so un-Doctor Who... o.o). Maybe not a movie, but maybe a spin off series people would care about? An 8th Doctor Adventures Spin Off Series would be nice. :)
Would be nice, since the 8th Doctor was wasted for that crappy movie (Which I resaw recently. Its so un-Doctor Who... o.o).
By the way... the supposed Eighth Doctor special is pretty much unofficially confirmed now, right?
GUYSEven so, we can't help but be sad that he's going. T.T
You're falling into the typecast trap D:
Tom Baker had the same image, and he had to leave too, so... y'know, just let Tennant leave ;.; He's been here for 3 seasons, it is about time we see a new regeneration.
how could you do this to me David? ;;
I thought we had something special ;;
oh well, it was about time I guess x] Wonder who will be next?
Is the next Doctor Jeremy Clarkson?
Sniff.....goodbye David...best Doctor ever.... :'(
Hunkiest Doctor Ever
He'd better be good >:(
He'd better be hunky.
Oh Gosh, I hope not.
True, true. Every Doctor is different in his own way.Series 5 from what I heard. o.o
As for RTD...I'm not sure if he's leaving. I know that he is, just not sure when he's leaving.
Ehh it was me
And who said Jeremy Clarkson was going to be the next Doctor?! :o
Maybe it could be the stig!
Well, the odds are on Paterson Joseph, Robert Carlyle and James Nesbitt to take the role. Personally, I want Nesbitt, I saw him in Jekyll, and he was pretty awesome.
Well the Christmas Special is called The Next Doctor, DWM is my source. So, could it be Neil Morrisey
I would submit myself to the belief David Tennant is leaving in the Christmas Special, had it not been for the fact that the 5th series is being delayed a year because Tennant has a role in Shakespeare play, Hamlet.It's amost impossibe to keep a surprise in tv due to the internet.
Besides, wouldn't it be better if they made it a surprise, like before the 16 year gap?
Well the Christmas Special is called The Next Doctor, DWM is my source. So, could it be Neil MorriseyThink about it guys. It's gonna have nothing to do with the Christmas Special. David nnounced that he was leaving a week or so ago...The Christmas special was planned at the start or 2008 and finished filming in June. There is no connection. =p

The Doctor steps happily out of the TARDIS. He has recovered from the events of his latest adventure, and is surprised to find himself in 1851 Christmas Eve.
As people mill and sing carols, The Doctor is suprised to hear a loud scream: "DOCTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!" He begins to run only to find a Rosita young black woman down an alleyway screaming, a door stands in front of her, she continues to scream for the Doctor, much to the bewilderment of the Doctor, as another man runs to meet her. The Doctor asks the man who he is.
He replies: "I'm the Doctor. Simply the Doctor. The one. The only. And the best" Then he takes a regular screwdriver from the woman Rosita, calling it the Sonic Screwdriver and opens the door. A beast with the body of a ghost and the head of a Cyberman pops out. Rosita stares as the two Doctors raise two sonic screwdrivers, look at each other, and simultaneously say: "Allons-y!", much to the Doctor's frantic irritation.
If you watch the CIN preview clip, David Morrisey's 'sonic screwdriver' is just a regular screw driver, leading me to believe he's pretending to be the Doctor. As well as similar hair styles and his 'companion' ...'Rosita' (Pretending to symbolise Rose), then he may just be a false Doctor.
I can't wait 'till the Christmas special! I've heard that there won't be a new Doctor Who series this year (except specials) but don't believe it. I just want to be 100% sure, is that true? Sorry if its already been answered. I just can't be botherd to look through the whole topic.
WHAT?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Sorry about that... where is the prove that its true? I will refuse to believe it until I have proof! :PIt was pretty much news ages ago. There will be a 5th Series, but not till 2010.
Tbh, for the specials, I'd hope for them to concentrate on things that have happened in the past series, which specifically have something to do with Tennant's character.
Firstly...In series 3, The Doctor and Martha visited William Shakespeare in episode two. At the end of the episode, Queen Elizabeth appears saying, "Doctor! My sworn enemy!". I'd hope that one of the specials would be based upon that, since it's an event that happened while he was in this form.
Secondly, I'd like to see something done with River Song. It seems to be a long term thing, over more than one form of the Doctor's regeneration,from what was said in the two episodes...yet she recognised that he was an early Doctor, saying "Judging from your face, it's early days...", going on the suggest a couple of things they did while he was in Tennant's form. "
Okay, I've just re-watched "Silence in the Library", and although the subtitles say "Oh! Life of a time traveller, never knew it could be such hard work." In fact, River is saying "Oh! Wife of a time traveller, never knew it could be such hard work."
Actor Patrick Stewart may also appear in the 2009 specials, playing the renegade Time Lord, The Monk. At least one source believes that "the BBC has offered him the role and are willing to wait for Stewart's schedule to clear". Stewart could therefore appear in either the specials or the 2010 series.
Doctor Who Magazine said David wants to see the Zygons return so Doctor Who may bring them back in his final episode.
According to a newspaper in mid 2008 it claimed The Master will return and will have fight to the death with The Doctor.
Tbh, for the specials, I'd hope for them to concentrate on things that have happened in the past series, which specifically have something to do with Tennant's character.If anything, more of the Shadow Proclamation would be nice, since they did absolutely nothing in the Stolen Earth. Big letdown that...

Also, The Sun newspaper in the UK has reported David Morrissey will be playing The Doctor in this episode with David Tennant taking the companion role.The BBC's official Doctor Who website, has confirmed that David Morrissey is playing a character that calls himself The Doctor.
Given that it is confirmed there are two Doctors, both with a TARDIS and that these are the Cybus Cybermen, it would seem that The Doctor has either crossed back into Pete's World or the Cybus Cybermen have gained new technology and are being chased down by a 'Pete's world Doctor'.
My mum and I do not, I repeat, do not want David Morrisey to be the next Doctor.
Turns out they avoided such an awful fate.
Don't think anybody knows when it's on to that extent. Unless ALK has some juicy tidbit of info that I've missed?Easter from what I heard.
Are you sure it's 2010? I thought that, rather than doing a series in 2009, they were going to instead to several one-off specials (like the Christmas one) scattered throughout the year.
I don't like how they didn't explain the Cybershades.. unless i just wasn't paying attention..
Oh.. and this whole 'we trapped them in this thing they can never get out of except they did anyway' thing is getting really old.. theres always a 'we can't go there any more' or 'they can't get out of that' or 'they're deffinatly all dead now' .. but it never actually is like that... and im starting to wonder what the point of even saying it is anymore..I thought it was meant to be because of what happened at the end of last series. The Cybermen were sucked into the void with the Dalek's..but Rose said "Even the void is dead", when she came over.
yes..
Seems Doctor Number 11 will be announced TOMORROW!!! (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7807742.stm)Oh God I'm excited!
It has to be Jeremy Kyle, he was made for the part.
James May? O_o I highly doubt it would be him... I'd prefer him to a woman though any day. That would spoil Doctor Who and I would proably stop watching it. It would be weird for a man to regenerate into a woman.
That guy from High school musical maybe, That is just stupid.
^ You like Top Gear don't you?
I don't know if this is a spoiler, but seeing as its already been pasted all over tv and the internet....Would you care to link the article?
He's already said he's leaving after one series. How pathetic, are they just wasting Doctors?
This was announced by the BBC, so don't you dare accuse me of spreading spoilers.
Thats a bit pointless. The again, Christopher Eccleson (or whatever his name is) quit after his first series.
(http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/45343000/jpg/_45343466_newdocotr226.jpg)
He'll be replacing his hairstyle with something you can look at without cringing, right?
Would you care to link the article?
Nope, nothing on his Wiki page about leaving after 1 season.
I swear it said he would leave because he didn't want to be typecast.
How can you be typecast by playing The Doctor? It's a unique role. Nothing really is similar to it, therefore it's difficult to become typecast through it. Anyway, I won't believe it until I hear about it from an official source.
I actually quite like his ridiculous hair. He probably uses it to taunt bald people.

Not up to RTD anymore, its Steven Moffat come Season 5.Is he stepping down from being the Headwriter then?
...and River Song obviously meeting the Doctor again...since from her reaction, she had met him in that form before...
I thought they would follow on from the Queen Elizabeth event much sooner, but they didn't. D:
[/quote}
Well... it's possible that his meeting with Elizabeth may take place outside any particular episode.
did anyone else think that the flying bus was so very harry potter?Not really, since that was purple and a triple decker. ;P
Also, the "He we return from the dark" thing, is definately The Master....
Well, the Master's Drums have 4 beats do they not? That was what I was thinking...
Btw, the end with bit with the psychic woman... she said 'it is returning' not 'he is returning'...though she then says 'he will knock 4 times'...I'm thinking that there will be a knock on the Tardis door over the next few episodes...
Well, the Master's Drums have 4 beats do they not? That was what I was thinking...
Yes, and you know Donna will return, since Martha returned, but Donna can't return under her own will.
How would they pull that off, after saying that any memory of The Doctor would kill her? :o
Oh yeah, Lee Evans was awesome. =DLol, yeah. :) "I love you, Doctor!"
i didn't like lady cristina whatever-her-name-was.
Yeah I didn't really like Christina either.. nothing against the actress, the character was just annoying xD I'm glad she isn't the new assistant. I wanted Malcom to be the new assistant ;_;
I agree that Donna is my favourite "new" assistant so far.. though I watched Journey's End on iPlayer yesterday and her chance of rejoining was shown to be slightly impossible, so ah well.
How would they pull that off, after saying that any memory of The Doctor would kill her? :othey can do anything, they can make a device that compreses it. maybes have a donna with no memory
I mean, companions have died before.4 (plus astrid) have companions (that have been in the tardis) have PERMINANTLY DIED
And didn't the Ood in the latest series say something about the Doctor's song ending?they said that the doctordonna's song was ending.
Here's a radical theory; what if the Midnight entity was in fact the disembodied consciousness of the Master?the master has a body, and he is a woman, someone picked up the ring at the end of last of the time lords
the master has a body, and he is a woman, someone picked up the ring at the end of last of the time lordsYes, and Donna can be seen wearing a ring in Journey's End. Also, the sound that the Subwave network made upon launching was the Master's four-tone beat.
Yes, and Donna can be seen wearing a ring in Journey's End. Also, the sound that the Subwave network made upon launching was the Master's four-tone beat.OMG. NO WAY JUST HAD A GREAT THOUGHT!
Yes, and some people speculated that Donna's appearance in the trailer for Series 4, when she's sitting by the campfire, was actually Davros/the Master disguising themselves as Donna.never heard that before
I am not at all impressed with the new look... I was hoping for something far darkerNow thats were i wasn't. I'm pretty glad its quite old and light. For i have heard that the series was going to be really dark and i was dreading it. But now it seems it was all just talk.
This series is going to make me sad...
Matt Smith totally doesn't look the part, the writing is going to take a massive dive, 'Amy Pond' is a name reserved for a CBeebies presenter and The Doctor should be good-looking not... Well... That. *points at Smith*
... You think Tom Baker was good-looking?
I can't believe everyone's slating him before he's actually done any filming. We haven't actually seen him in character yet. << I think, like all the previous Doctor's...he'll be fantastic! They were very careful about who they picked, so I would expect good things from him. =p
I think he will succeeded and if he doesn't they could always draft me in to play him.
Ginger...haha how The Doctor whishes he was.
He at least looked Doctorish. : - /Personally, I think that Sylvester McCoy was the most Doctorish, although, really, the only Doctor who looked bad was Colin Baker. I quite like Matt's look, although I'm not quite sure why. Maybe it's because the shirt is styled a little like David Tennant's, and the colour is strangely soothing.
Personally, I think that Sylvester McCoy was the most Doctorish...What do you define as 'Doctorish'... They've said loads of times, that each Doctor is a different Doctor. Each having their own personality, attitude and look. I don't think there really is a set style for the Doctor to play...
Here's his outfit in full (http://www.iaza.com/work/090723C/The_doctor68091.jpg) if it makes any difference.
No! Our English/Drama teacher should play him! He is scottish, tall, skinny and GINGER! The doctor has never been ginger! And he is really doctorish in real life anyway!
I am sorta half expecting that bowtie to spin when he gets an idea o-o
[& i always preferred eccleson to tennant anyhoo :v]
I think he'll be okay though; who cares about the appearance? It's only clothing, no one moaned because Tennant wore converse did they? He can wear what he wants, he's still the Doctor, and people should give him a chance.
But dressing a 20-year-old up in Tom Baker's clothing from when he was 40 doesn't make a Doctor. It just makes a nerd with a huge forehead.

curtis: don't know I guess I would dress him in red/blue fur coat
and nothing else? Could be a bit cold
curtis: don't know I guess I would dress him in red/blue fur coat
But any Doctor is a Doctor; that's why they are picked to do it. You can just judge him by first looks like that; you have to give him a chance. Doctor's don't get their reputations from their dress-code; if they did then not many people would like Doctor Who at all imo. You get the reputation by acting well (or badly), and for making the position your own.
Seriously, it's not about the looks, it's about the acting. Don't judge a book by it's cover.
It's mostly his giant forehead that throws me off, but dressing a 27-year-old like an crotchety old man just really doesn't work. Besides, did River Song not say to the Tennant Doctor "this is the youngest I've seen you?" Unless she was talking about his dress-sense, I really don't think Matt Freshfromschool Smith fits the part.
People are still moaning about it? Dress him as a gangsta rapper, then you won't be moaning about how he looks.

Screw Donna, anyone see the Ood? =D
A chance for more mindless Ood misuse! XD
And screw Donna!? SCREW DONNA?! I loved her, I'm glad she's coming back.Aye, but we knew that for awhile now. Ood, we didnt know, and the Master was somewhat speculated. ;P
Screw Donna, anyone see the Ood? =D
Just type Doctor Who The End of the World into Youtube. ;) The trailer's low quality, as it was a fan recording at Comic Con, but you can see the Ood and those red eyes of theirs in it (There's a close up one somewhere)You mean the 'The End of Time'... =p
As with Tenant, I can forgive a lot if the actor playing the Doctor can portray the 'aged travellor' despite his looks.
Was that meant to be The Masters regeneration or someone else?
Christ, look at the new logo! (http://www.guardian.co.uk/tv-and-radio/tvandradioblog/poll/2009/oct/06/doctor-who-new-logo)
... ... ... This series is dead to me now. Bye-bye, good Doctor Who. ToTBecause of a simple logo change? ;P
As for the preview for The End of Time, all I can say is LOL., the Master looks like hes dressed like a Chav. XDHe's going to destroy time itself and mug you in the process, most terrifying villain ever?

the eigth doctor was ginger :PI think I have to agree with you with just about everything you said. I will still watch it however, he just doesn't look the part AT ALL. His suit is like it was worn by one of the old Doctors as it looks all retro an really really unsuitable. I missed Chris when he left, now I'm gonna miss David... WHA!! *runs away*
srsly, this Matt Smith does NOT suit the Doctor imo. At least the other's looked smart enough. Rolled up trousers? TWEED? BOWTIE?!.
srsly wth.
I don't like the look of him. As soon as the next Doctor image was released I was all 'nowai i'm going to watch doctor who anymore *clings to dt episodes*
Amy Pond? okay what type of a name is THAT.
do not want.
ALSOALSOALSO
they cannot have a ginger companion again because NO ONE can top Donna :(
Your not even giving him a chance ?
Unfortunately people don't give people chances. It's a shame really, I didn't agree with the appointment of David Tennant, but I did give him a chance. He didn't do well imo, I thought he was the worst doctor, but I still gave him a chance.What are you on about? Tennant was the best Doctor yet, imo!
When does the new dude come on? I'll give him a chance, since he can't get much worse than Tennant imo.
What are you on about? Tennant was the best Doctor yet, imo!
What are you on about? Tennant was the best Doctor yet, imo!
Let me ask have you seen the older doctor who's the ones from the 80s ?
if not that's ok.
Exactly, in your opinion =P
He just didn't appeal to me, and after Chris Eccleston (who for me was the best Doctor), it was always going to go downhill for me. The thing is, it went downhill by a lot.
Really? I found Chris Ecclestone quite dry. I didn't like him much at all - he just seemed to not have the emotional depth when it came to some of the final scenes.
I'll admit, that's where he was at his weakest (but I still think that he was decent at those parts), but other than the final scenes, I found him to be hilarious, and made the role his own really. He just reacted well to a lot of things, and made the dramatic parts dramatic but also very funny. I preferred the comical appeal he added to it.I think Chris was the best too, but I have to say that David was really good. At first, when the Doctor regenerated I was like "NOOOOO!!!" and was never going to watch it again, but then I got used to him and now I really like him. I don't want him to leave. Then again, I'll probably be like that will Matt though (great name btw!) - not liking him at the beginning then getting to really like him.
Tennant on the other hand I found to be the opposite; there's no doubting how good he is at the emotional side to it all, but on the other parts, I just couldn't take to him. He was a bit too bland for me most of the time. There's no doubting his quality as an actor, I just felt that for most of the time, the role didn't suit him as well as say Chris Eccleston.
I think it just depends how you want The Doctor to be really. I'd much prefer for him to be humorous, whilst still being able to provide the right drama to it as it were.
Actually, River Song is set to return in the next series. ;P
!:OMultible sources I read. Afterall, she was in a Moffat written ep, therefore Moffat seems to have plans for her.
What?! How?! SOURCE, YOU ANGELIC KING, YOU!!
Because I loved her just so much. And she's in Flashforward :3

Seems we're getting a Dr Who BBC One Intro thingy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kXvs0aKSt0) to go with our specials too.
Oh yes, a question I'd like to ask you all...
Who do you want to play the next Doctor?
Brian Blessed.

Who do you want to play the next Doctor?
Picked up strong Matrix vibes from everyone having the Master's face.Rimmer World was way ahead of the Matrix. XP
Rimmer World was way ahead of the Matrix. XP
wouldnt the children have all become adults like the Master?
Rimmer World was way ahead of the Matrix. XP(http://www.3click.tv/mp4//Red%20Dwarf/season%206/metadata/42391.jpg)
Ah, children Masters, a miss opportunity, though wouldnt the children have all become adults like the Master?Well, the Women did sorta go flat chested when they became the Master. As for kid Masters? Would it be creepier to see them as sort of child-sized, but Master-faced/voiced, or Master-sized, but in considerably tight/torn/no clothing...
well the Fangirls'd wet themselves for the latter option.
So David Tennant is bowing out? Might start watching again now that he's gone. I couldn't stomach the man at all. If he'd had kept his natural Scottish accent it might have been worthwhile, but no he was too glib to be the doctor.
Great end to a great series; Matt Smith seemed reasonable in the few seconds we saw of him, quirky enough (if a bit funny-looking). Fingers crossed for the next series!
BUGGER ME, there was a preview of the next series after Eastenders!
And here it is! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnPUF8an-XE&feature=sub)
But you Matt Smith haters will probably pick nick at bits, so :P
Everyone remember how David Tennant was considered awful by most upon his first appearance?
He turned out to be awesome... I sure hope the same is the case here.
And nina is a cactus!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw her and thought 'OMG it's Nina!'. Same with Russel Tovey's little cameo near the end.
I hate him. There's me being "oh come on guys, let's see what he's like first :3" but no, he sucks. 'Geranimo?' Get out. I really don't like him, and from the little trailer posted, I don't see the 'dark' Doctor that Tennant sometimes portrayed.*BANG*
and plus, I'm glad Russel T. Davies is leaving. Near enough every damned episode he wrote the Doctor was snogging one girl or another. ><
as opposed to Madame de Pompadour in Moffat's the Girl in the Fireplace.. and introducing his wife [is she? i don't know :v] river song in Forest of the Dead.. hell, even in The Empty Child/Doctor Dances i believe it was stated that the dancing was a metaphor for sex and sexuality, haha.
..I do love moffat's work, though.. slightly twisted.. and.. amusing. If there are ever doctor who episodes I watch from through my fingers, they'd be his episodes.
So I am really quite looking forward to this new series :D
Wouldn't complain if we saw the Ood again either, though.
and.. as it is, tennant is probably my doctor.. though eccleson was lovely he wasn't around for too long to really.. i dunno, maybe it was because it was a few years ago. in that shall see what the next series brings.. could change . or.. maybe it won't, I don't know~
what's all this "smith isn't attractive" nonsense? by northampton standards the boy's a supermodel.
he gains five points for not being an emo kid at any rate :v
I want David Tennant back =[ He's been the best Doctor so far imo and he's a great actor, plus he's attractive lol ... But also the new Doctor looks creepy to me O__o meep.
The whole "Geronimo" thing...
He says it once, in the trailer. Once. ONE TIME. And already people are claiming it's his catchphrase?
'Geranimo?' Get out.
Wilf was great in the shooting the missiles bit
The women has got to be his mother for reasons I can't fully explain so I won't.
okay the xmas and new year special was pretty good BUT i'm quite disappointed that he died due to absorbing the radiation, i mean in the whole hype up to it in the whole list of things that could of killed him in that episode, it was that >_< i mean i really didn't like that =P
An interesting theme has appeared on this site. (http://www.televisiontunes.com/Doctor_Who_-_2010.html)
Could it be the new theme? I sure bloody hope so. :3

Where are all these negative reports coming from?
Noo! I live in denial that David ever left :(
For whatever reason I missed the first episode with the new doctor. Darn the world for acutally likeing him!
And Darn my dad for saying he's as good as or indeed better than Tennant!....
BARROWMAN!!! *Shakes fist*
Terrence Hardiman...YES. He sounds just like he does playing The Demon Headmaster. Seriously, put him in a grey labcoat, and a pair of tinted glasses, taunting Dinah Glass/Hunter, and...yes!
I laughed at how Scotland was now excluded, even though the Union flag had the Andrew blue on it and the map of the country had Scotland on it.
I'm hoping, at some point during this series, that someone says, 'I'll explain later'.
I really want to get a WWII Dalek propaganda poster. Or.. something.
..you don't happen to have an A1-sized printer i could borrow do you?
And.. the doctor is a better person than i.. for i'd simply say to river, "i met you once, then you died. HURR"
..soo he gave her pictures of all his incarnations so she'd recognise him? she implies that she's met more than just Eleven.. and obviously not previous ones, even offscreen, because Ten didn't recognise her in the library. So.. implied possible future Doctors meet her. Maybe. Intriguing anyhoo.
hmm.. I need the doctor trying to make the vworp vworp noise as a ringtone or something, i dunno. okay, no.
..boring blue stabilisers.
I only have one little thing about it, if the angels touch you you get sent back in time, so how did they break the guys necks, can they turn it off or something?
However, this was the only thing that let it down and perhaps there will be an explanation. I was also puzzled at how River wasn't crushed by the space vacuum after bailing from the air lock, although I suppose the TARDIS shields can extend.
I liked it, although i felt that the whole 'gap in the time-space continuum' thing was a bit of a deus ex machina, unless it's gonna be central the plotline later on. (That may well be a very stupid statement :L)
We even got a few more River Song answers... Even more questions though.
Haha, gilbert! I mean, alex price.
With his space fish mummy.
"Mummy, what's wrong with your perception filter?" is now my favourite line from anything ever.
Only slag is the Doctor just pulling a switch to stop the storm. Would of looked better if was ripped out wires and such in a desperate struggle, not knowing if it ll work or not.
Near perfect, wonderfully filmed and did not look cheap whatsoever.
Ah, KNEW I recognised him from somewhere! And I personally preferred "...Did you just say something about Mummy?" xD
And yeah, next week looks awesome.
Weirdly, this was one of the episodes where I was really very aware of the sfx.. particularly when the doctor was on top of the building trying to stop the.. storm machine thing.. and also the fish monsters looking amusingly out of place.
Dunno why I noticed things this episode in particular.
But no, wouldn't say it looked cheap
Just.. quoting this bit because it's one of the episodes where I've gone "..well that looks a bit CGI, hur"
I'm such an oddball.
Dunno what Pond girl sees in ponytail man, seems like an utter prat to me.
..though was/is the water really that turquoise in Venice? :v
but then, if the Doctor knew that the Dream Lord was him anyway, he surely knew it was all a dream anyway and therefore should've just killed them all off in both realities! Ohh I am muchly confused ):
Sigh-lore-ee-ans: Silurians
I think
...amy's fiancee.
Have you been smoking something? She's never had a fiancée.
The ring was still there... It shouldn't have been.
If Rory now has never existed then there would have been no ring to be put into the TARDIS console. So why was the ring there?
I'm calling Rory's return sometime near/in the finale.
Ahh, but its inside the TARDIS, which makes rules of space and time a little less certain.
That episode had great tension, but not on an action level, on an emotional level. I may be ready to call episode of the series.
No see the whole point still gets caught in its own logic. Rory had the ring before he stepped onto the TARDIS. So with no Rory to become her fiance Amy never would have gotten the ring.... That means that the ring was never there to get put onto the console. I mean if it had been Amy carrying her mums wedding ring out of sentimentality, that I could buy. But with the current timeline we have a ring that Amy thinks has appeared from nowhere.
Why do I get the feeling that River Song is part of the answer?
This may be a silly question, as I was distracted by my little brother a lot during the episode and so might've missed this being explained, but why did Amy remember the soldiers that were swallowed up by the void in Flesh and Stone, yet forget Rory when it took him?
I think it was meant to be a one time exhibition in 2010. I remember there was one in London that I went to, not sure if it's the same company. Still, it was a pretty cool and touching episode. (I think my mum cried at some point, she's a wuss like that ¬_¬).
For an Aesop lead episode... This was quite a good one. It was almost as effective as the humanization of Donna during that Ood 2 parter.
Beats me how he could have been depressed knowing that his pictures will be the most famous.I suppose it's a lot of pressure to live up to, and he knew he wouldn't be appreciated till long after he's dead. That and clinical depression doesn't really require a logical reason for you to get so depressed you want to kill yourself, assuming he had it.
SPOILER ALERT !!!
Can't wait til the real universe Cybermen come back :D
Should prove somewhat of a 'blag' to those who haven't watched the old series' and haven't got a clue about Earth's sister planet of Mondas :D
Anyone have a link to a spoilerific site I can read this up on? ^.^
Cybermen are back in the finale? Anyone have a link to a spoilerific site I can read this up on? ^.^
Matt Smith can wander around my house in a towel any day <3
Loving James Corden in that one. Only just watched the recorded version. Am I the only one who thought master when he said its trying to build a TARDIS.
I wonder if we can land lucky and have them kill Amy at the climax of the two episodes. Karen is a good actress for a scottish chick. Which makes her an excellent actress by English standards (Phenomenal compared to the Corden Creature.) But the scripting for Amelia has just left me turned off to her.
I wonder if we can land lucky and have them kill Amy at the climax of the two episodes.
The lack of a NEXT TIME trailer is a good thing.
2. The blue guys intends to give River Song a vortex manipulator...the thing that Captain Jack had on his wrist so he could jump through time...
But the Doctor locked it at the end of Last of the Time Lords so Captain Jack couldn't jump about through time didn't he?
He used it at the end of Children of Earth so I assume it works lol.
The Sontarans don't have time travel, and neither do the Nestene and the Autons. The Silurians shouldn't have been there since, at this point in history they should have still been hibernating. Don't know much about the Hoix, Blowfish or the Roboforms or their tech, so can't say for certain on them. The Sycorax didn't seem advanced enough, and neither do the Weevils. Plus, has the Doctor ever even been in conflict with the Weevils?
Then theres the Judoon and the Atraxi; don't know if they possessed time travel, but they were both sort of space police; surely they would know that the Doctor wouldn't blow up the universe.
....They're not spoilers...everyone has seen the episode so you're not spoiling it for anyone. =p
That was the most impressive moment i ever seen. the ending was amazing. i would love to talk about it some more but don't want due to spoilers.

Perhaps the pandorica is keeping The Doctor safe? I mean maybe the alliance know nobody else apart from The Doctor can save them and everything but if they were to ask him to save them he'd think its a trap. So they trapped him to save all the universes, just a thought.
Doo hope that they won't make her into a Donnaesque "most important person/timelines converging omg!"
No secret that I'm not a big fan of Amy.. but even if i did quite like her.. eh, it's still more of the same D:
My guess for Episode Thirteen:
If this scenario was created from Amy's memories, then if the Doctor can give her a NEW memory, that'll get created as well. With this new piece of kit, maybe he can reverse everything.
Maybe it's the Doctor himself he needs to put in her head. After all, that's the one thing in her bedroom that didn't get created.
Also, maybe the Doctor will seal the cracks by jumping into one himself. That's hinted at in Flesh and Stone. Amy's memories keep him alive (a running theme throughout this series is that people are kept alive by memories), but the Doctor's unwritten - the entire world doesn't know he exists.
His companions still remember, of course (time-travellers have a different perspective), and all his deeds are still done (after all, the angels still crashed the Byzantium even though they were unwritten).
That's my guess.
you do know that the time war might come back and all...the doctor wasn't there to stop the time lords and also it would mean that none of this would happen in the first place.
Also...how did the Doctor escape the Pandorica to give Auton!Rory the Sonic Screwdriver to free the Doctor in the first place?That was him from the future. After he escaped the Pandorica, he went to give him the sonic. From the future. It's meant to be confusing.
I did like how he kept trying to fix all the.. "right, where did you get that from? when did i tell you this?" things though, hur.. rather Blink-ish.
I sense that Moffat likes things like that. I APPROVE.
And we finally get a sort-of explanation lol for the duck pond that doesn't have any ducks.We have? What is it?
Fezzes are cool.
What, more disturbing than my Duck Pond picture I posted earlier on?
ANYWAY
anyone reckon that the "your majesty" the Doctor was referring to at the end of the last episode there means that we'll see a return of Liz Ten in the upcoming christmas special?

But still.. not convinced that we'll see her againWell it was Moffat that convinced RTD to have her come back to life at the end, so I think he may still be waiting for the right opportunity...unless she's regenerated and become river song omgso.. could happen. Or she'll just be forgotten, hur.
"Unstated love for Gwen." Would that be the same love that had him bed Ianto and spend about a millenium chasing The Doctor?
i guess that "Victory of the Daleks" didn't exactly go down as well as the others
Think the football that day played a part, but the ratings werent impressive for a Dalek ep from what I heard.
that'd be the one. 'Cause gwen is a special snowflake, which is why she got a happy ending after Children of Earth while nobody else did.
Wiimote Sonic Screwdriver (http://kotaku.com/5631459/a-wii-remmote-suited-for-doctor-who) anyone?
Seems they're confident the games'll sale...
I saw that too... I am actually more interested in how they are doing this for the DS.
Also, Tennant and Smith getting all votes? It's a sad day in Doctor Who history.Well you can't expect those who haven't watch the old series to vote for the other doctors...You're going to vote for the Doctor that you've grown up on and for most people here it's going to be Ecclestone, Tennant or Smith... =p
Gaiman himself praised the actress, calling her "beautiful, funny and strange".
"Suranne is marvellous," he said. "It's the kind of role that people will remember forever, so we needed someone who was able to pull that off, and to keep up with Matt Smith. And bite him. Suranne does all three."
So Daniel Mays is appearing in the Gatiss episode[/url]. I don't even.You're kidding!? Oh kill me now... I'm sorry but he was so ridiculously annoying...in both Hustle and Ashes to Ashes... x.x

The moment comes in the CBBC spin-off show, The Sarah Jane Adventures, which stars former companion Elisabeth Sladen as Sarah Jane Smith. Matt Smith, who plays the current Doctor Who, guest stars in a two-part episode called The Death of the Doctor, to be screened on October 25 and 26. While the Doctor and Clyde Langer, played by Daniel Anthony, are in the process of outwitting spooky vulture undertakers the Shansheeth, Clyde asks how many times he can regenerate. The Doctor indicates that there is no limit. The action continues.
Wow, it seems that the Doctor can officially go on forever now. Apparently the BBC has ditched the 12 regenerations limit (http://www.guardian.co.uk/tv-and-radio/2010/oct/12/doctor-who-immortal-reveals-bbc).Well, if there's money to be made. ;P
It was all right...LALALALALALALALALALALALALA, NOT LISTENING.
I really really want them to make the carol composed especially for Doctor Who, the one that Abigail sung at the end, available for download somewhere. Do you reckon they'll put it on iTunes or something?
I did wonder why the reapers never showed up when Cazran touched his younger self - remember when Ecclestone said that Rose shouldn't touch her baby self, to stop a huge space time continuum kaboom from happening? Well, why didn't THAT happen then? D=
Also, the markings on Amy and River aren't satan pit style. They're tally marks...
- Lack of Daleks... Is Moffett breaking RTD's style of having to have Daleks in every series. Hopefully this is true...
dunno if she will leave.. maybe.. or maybe we'll get a companion who lasts for longer than two series, who knows
not an rtd fan then ahurhur?
Did we see another spacesuit like the ones in Silence in the Library by and Forest of the Dead? Guess it makes sense since River's coming back again.Nah, the suits were completely different...apart from being white. That was a proper astronaut suit. Hmm
And when the Doctor said "All things must come to an end" to Amy, you thinking this could be Amy Pond's last season me wonders?
As well as New Years Day, today is also anniversary of the death of the 10th Doctor...;__;
oh my God Peter
I have a weak heart.. don't throw posts like that around lightly

Let the anticipation begin! Series 6 has been confirmed to start on the Saturday 23rd April. And good new for you American folk, as it will also be broadcast on BBC America on the same day!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWizDna1XO4&feature=related
Even better, there's now a two-minute prequel for Episode 1: the Impossible Astronaut (http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/dw/videos/p00fxf06).
Look behind you~
I can't wait for the new series, especially as there are a lot of references to the older series... can anyone say Cybermats? My only wish is that either Amy Pond gets dropped or Matt Smith moves on. They're fine individually but I don't think they work that well as a team.
huh
david tennant and georgia moffett have had a daughter
so that's the doctor and the doctor's daughter [who is actually the doctor's daughter] having a daughter who is the doctor's daughter.
37 seconds in, right after daniel mays [woo!], is that nine/ten's tardis interior?
I'm sure that everyone is sick of me posting promo stuff for series six
^ ofc but you must have a favorite at least? ;D
Now I'm addicted to Paul McGann, the Eigth Doctor. Seriously people, if you've never listened to any of the audio adventures before, the Eight Doctor series that came out a couple of years ago is exceptional... you even notice a few phrases and nods to the current Doctor!
Was the console room that Rory and River were in the same as in The Lodger?
Or is that just "generic spaceship console"?
Some very slight differences, but on the whole they do seem to be the same. Compare The Lodger (http://images.wikia.com/tardis/images/d/db/Inside_timeship.jpg) to The Impossible Astronaut (http://i.imgur.com/Pmr6k.jpg).
crack theoryRiver has darker skin than the baby.
could the young girl be River?

The BBC really shot themselves in the foot with that one, I loved the episode but they killed the doctor in his current regeneration, and already explained if they prevent that they create a paradox, so if Matt Smith ever wants to leave the show they will have quiet a few continuity issues.
Has a 7th Series and/or Xmas special for this year even been confirmed yet? 0.o
River has darker skin than the baby.
The doctors daughter dun dun duuuh
yeah, lovechild is the theory I'm seeing. And my opinion on that is the same as River being the Doctor's wife: it would fit, but it's far too obviousDidn't River as good as say she was the doctor's wife in the library thing?
Mind you, Amy was asleep for a few days. Who knows what the Silence could of done to her in that time... o.oThis is going to be an interesting series I think.
^not really, as far as I can remember.. she knew his name.. and he said that there was only one way she could know thatI seem to remember the companion (I forget if it was Martha or Donna then) asking if she was the doctor's wife. River asked if she really thought it could be anything so simple with the Doctor. Companion said yes. "Good Girl," was river's response
I don't remember that at allInsinuated, never stated as such. And the doctor wasn't there. I'm sure it's something more than that of course. I presume she's got something to do with shooting him.
maybe I should watch it again
[yeah, it was donna]
but if it was stated that she is his wife then what is all this hoo-hah about "who is she"?
It’s obvious the future sonic screwdriver we saw in Silence in the Library will either be coughed up by the Tardis for a new doctor or it will slowly go through cosmetic changes building up to that point (the base design looks like a variant of David Tennant’s screwdriver) ...so we might see the dampers, the “red setting”, the finger recognition ring with the fluid link and a concealed miniature neural relay slowly incorporated into the screwdriver over time.
I reckon the girl and River Song is The Rani and she's using that fobwatch thing to hide so the Doctor doesn't recognise her.
Or I wonder if the Eye-patch lady is The Rani and she captured a timelady child.
Will they ever stop killing roryhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvdf5n-zI14 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvdf5n-zI14)
Sounds crazy, but what if Amy's already had the baby? As the result of the Silence doing stuff to her while she was out or Timey Wimey stuff?Are you sure its timey wimey and not spacey wacey o3o?
OK I noticed an interesting thing... The T.A.R.DI.S called Amy, Rose and the others strays, however it was Rory she called the pretty one.
Mind you, Amy was asleep for a few days. Who knows what the Silence could of done to her in that time... o.oNAILED IT, just about. I just KNEW the silence did something off camera to Amy, and there we go. ;P
NAILED IT, just about. I just KNEW the silence did something off camera to Amy, and there we go. ;P
NAILED IT, just about. I just KNEW the silence did something off camera to Amy, and there we go. ;PWrong! Amy was complaining that she was pregnant before the 'Many days'... She first saw Madame Kavorian during Day of the Moon, which was obviously earlier in the episode. She also told the Doctor she was pregnant at the end of Impossible Astronaut. I get the feeling the 'many days' is in fact something different... =p
I did rather love the sontaran nurse though.. [get well soon.. so that I can DESTROY YOU IN BATTLE... can you get greetings cards with that on?]
I kind of liked the episode, though the 'collecting debts' part of the episode simply felt like filler... did the Sontaran, Silurian and token blue man really make that much of a difference to the episode? Otherwise I definitely didn't see the 'flesh' baby coming. :DWhat do you mean 'filler'??...It's setting up the story... =p You can't just have them appear without explaining why they're there...The point is that the Doctor has risen an army in order to get Amy and the baby back. =p

rivers timelord name is "the silence".
her first episode was "silence in the library" and the silence tell amy she will "bring forth the silence"
rivers timelord name is "the silence".oh yeah! wow the silence go way back (though the silence never featured in the episode. or did they :0) they could mean silence in a different way.
her first episode was "silence in the library" and the silence tell amy she will "bring forth the silence"
River got really happy when she saw Rory at the beginning.I'm pretty sure its just a coincidence..."Silence in the Library was a line said by the Doctor during the episode...hence the name of the title..."
Guys!! Guess what's back on TV this Saturday!?!? =DThe Many Deaths of Rory Williams Show? ;PFormula One!!
but robot bacteria was cool!
There's my knowledge of the human body for ya. XD Knew it was one of them words, but forgot.
They were antibodies! They're your body's little cleanup system, not bacteria :3
I presume we're gonna get a little while of River and the Doctor travelling in the same direction in time? Otherwise we never see her again as she is now, do we? But the Doctor said she'd come looking for them..
Did like the kind of self-fulfilling prophecy going on with the RiverxDoctor romance - he only really fell for her because she was so keen on him when he first met her, but it seems she only fell for him because he loved her when she first met him.
Did Hitler ever get out of that cupboard..? xD
And I don't think I shall be watching next week's episode.. looks far too scary for me ^^;
Very very good episode. Absolutely loved it. Finally getting to know more and more about River her history. This is one we've been waiting for, her first meeting with the Doctor.
If she's Human (+ Timelord), how many years can she live for? Can she live for hundred's and hundred's of years, or the usual human length...or somewhere in between...
what if
river song and the doctor do get married
take out life insurance
and then riversong kills the doctor
gets the payout
vortex manipulates to timeline where he's still alive
lots of money
PIMPED OUT TARDIS YO
all bling on his sonic screwdriver
tardis has a spoiler and bumps up and down when it's vworping away
doctor gets gold teeth and gold eyebrows and pimp hat
"pimp hats are cool" he will say
etc.
see i am an expert

In the last few days of his life, the Doctor pays a farewell visit to his old friend Craig, and encounters a mystery, as the time-travelling drama continues.
People are going missing, a silver rat scuttles in the shadows of a department store, and somewhere close by the Cybermen are waiting…
The Doctor is played by Matt Smith, Craig by James Corden, Amy by Karen Gillan and Rory by Arthur Darvill.
Spoilers (Should really make a River Song pic with the word spoilers, lol.)
Omg that was horrific. It was like some sort of WW1 narnia remix
Did someone say Doctor Who and Star Trek Official Comic Crossover (http://www.metro.co.uk/tv/890394-doctor-who-and-star-trek-comic-book-mash-up-for-assimilation2-out-in-may)? :oyes this is good i like this
First Series 7 Trailer! (http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/dw/videos/p00qfq58)Cleopatra on a spaceship or something looks interesting
Me likey the settings, the wild west, possible Daleks in the mountains.... :3
however i must say not too sure about the new companion that's been announced :sGOD NO! give her a chance people. i dont know her, and i doubt she will be as good as amy, but then i said amy could never beat donna and donna couldnt beat rose...so, yea. give her a chance before judging
donna couldnt beat roseDonna wins every time, it's not an opinion - it's a fact.
thing is, didnt the one at the beginning send him back in time as well? So maybe they can do both. Unless you want to argue that they're the same thing or something idk.
How did Rory get sent to Winter Quay, anyway? Can baby Angels only spacially displace people or something? Those things were creepy o_o "Put him with the babies." -shudder-
ALL THE DOCTORS!Because 14th onwards probably knew it turned out all okay in the end and didnt need to be there....
Wait a tick... Only 13 Doctors showed up at Galifrey... Are they seriously implying that Peter Capaldi will be the last Doctor?
Eyyyoo John Hurt should be added to the poll~
John Hurt was an actual regeneration of the Doctor though, not a spoof. Do you even know what you're talking about?
by that logic, add all of these guys too mk (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_actors_who_have_played_the_Doctor)

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES MATT SMITH HAS FINALLY REGENERATED.he was only around for around 3 years :/
I'm surprised no one has discussed "Deep Breath" yet. :Pman one episode it's hold your breath the very next one it's keep breathing.
Is it just me or are the special effects really bad this series?not just you.
