It'd be like Doctor Who Wackey Races. The Master could just rush off to the finish line, but instead at every step of the way he'll set up an elaberate scam for the doctor. Ahaha you thought this planet was messed up because they were left over ood living with reject sontarens, but actually it's me the Master setting up a trap whilst disguised as an ancient greek talking statue.

Nothing the actual show does could be as good as this.

"And whilst it's arguably not quite the equal of Dark Water, Death In Heaven has lots going for it, and this finale two parter is Doctor Who's best since 2005 as a result. Sorry, Rose."

Seems like nonsense.

Cool to see Osgood the Science Lady back again. She's the least tediously annoying character that actually has character.

It's been rumored that four named characters are going to be dead for good by the end of the episode. Most are in agreement that Osgood is a goner, and as much as I love her this season, Clara should bite it too.

Also the title sequence has been changed to have Clara's eyes instead of Capaldi's.

Jenny, Strax, Vastra and that doofy police inspector they sometime have visits from.

But they will only be dead because the episode takes place in the present and they are from the past.

They're supposed to show Amy & Rory's graves (and maybe others as well) do it's probably something "cute" like that.

Seb, River Song, the people collected in passed episodes.

Amy and Rory have their graves featured, supposedly with Cybermen climbing out.

When I hear Named Characters, I think the supporting cast or main characters.

Seb does not count, River is dead, and the others are already dead.

Seb's a named character, so there's one. Osgood almost certainly as well.

I keep thinking that they'll shoot for some really easy and kind of low-hanging targets like a Poochie style card coming on screen saying "and this is how we resolved Sarah Jane's fate."

Actually, the Amy/Rory thing I'm 99% sure has been debunked.

But it's been all but confirmed we will have another cameo that some have either called brilliant or tasteless:

CyberBrig

If he keeps his memories and emotions and poo poo and it's basically a revival of the character as a Cyberman, gently caress, why not, make him a goddamn companion.

It'd be a good reason to keep the Brig goin- EVERY Doctor gets to meet the Brigadier!

If they turn him into some monster or some bullshit like that and don't do anything with it, gently caress this, gently caress it to hell and back.

The Brigadier would be the *ONE* human on Earth that'd know enough to call bullshit on all of this-he's FOUGHT Cybermen before he knows how they work.

He's described as having a kind of "punch the air" moment, so I think he's probably able to mentally fight against his cyber-takeover.

I wish I could. I'm just basically summarizing the spoiler thread on GB, which is currently filled with people who were at the screening in Cardiff this week giving out hints and tidbits because Moffat begged them not to spoil it. Fuckers (them not you).

Looking around, I found a review that gives some dialogue teasers from the episode.

http://www.spoilertv.com/2014/11/doctor-who-death-in-heaven-finale.html

quote:

"Oh go on, crack a smile. I wanna see if your eyebrows fall off"

"The Nethersphere is just a cool name we came up with"

"I thought we were the same. When we grew up we weren't"

"I thought she might be the Master, regenerated into female form?"

"Never trust a hug, it’s just a way to hide your face"

"You left this behind on one of your previous attempts"

"I'm a target of strategic value"

"Well look at me, I'm bananas"

"You are a good Dalek"

"Ask anyone who knows me, I am an incredible liar"

Nothing too spoilery, but some interesting ones. Like who assumed she was the Master? And You are a good Dalek. Who is calling back to that moment?

If they had followed the script and actually killed off Rusty, I would have assumed him.

Maybe Osgood or Kate, showing that they're quicker on the uptake than the Doctor.

If CyberBrig has been working against the Master this entire time without her knowing, that would be perfect.

I mean hell if ANYONE could predict the Master better than the Doctor, it'd be him. I'm surprised he never got around to just punching out SimmMaster, after all.

I really get the feeling that it's just gonna be Kate Stewart getting confronted by the CyberBrig, and just wordlessly does a Thing that blows up cybermen.
