HD DAD posted:Long before the Time War, the Time Lords knew it was coming. Like a storm on the wind. There were many prophecies and stories. Legends before the fact. One of them was about a creature called the Hybrid: half Dalek, half Time Lord. The ultimate warrior. But whose side would it be on? Would it bring peace, or destruction? Was it real, or a fantasy? quote:Moffat wondered “How do you break the Doctor” Would he still be a hero without witness and reward? “It’s putting the Doctor alone in hell” quote:DWM hints that Moffat may have changed something in the mythology, something Moffat was quite nervous about doing

I hate how new series Time Lords seem to love prophecy so much. They're loving Time Lords. Prophecy is meaningless when you travel through time as a way of life.

Wheezle posted:I hate how new series Time Lords seem to love prophecy so much. They're loving Time Lords. Prophecy is meaningless when you travel through time as a way of life. Yes, although you could argue it as being shorthand for 'potential future timeline'. The Time Lords have a nonintervention policy, so history should run along a set course that they have observed through their mastery of time travel. Event One to Event Two and all the inconsequential minutiae inbetween. When rogue elements like the Doctor run around (and hence why they limit time travel access to other species), it upsets the amberised state of events they have on record, creating fracturing timelines of possibility, which they haven't accounted for. I don't like the idea of basically omniscient science gods using mysticism terms like prophecy because, honestly, it seems a bit beneath them. RTD literally having a soothsayer on the High Council in the End of Time particularly stuck in my craw.

The_Doctor posted:Yes, although you could argue it as being shorthand for 'potential future timeline'. The soothsayer demonstrated really well how far the Timelords had sunk. They had ended up invested in prophecy and mysticism again at the end of the Time War band Rassilon, who always played those beliefs for power made everyone eat it up, until she annoyed him and he killed her without a thought. The constant fracturing of time driving people insane, and making both Time Lord and Dalek turn to religious fervour is really clever. It's why the Dalek Emperor turned to religion ("worship him") as a means of control and why Khan was revered by the Daleks. It's also the The Moment works much better as an enigmatic, devine sounding idea than a box that lets you destroy the universe if Billie Piper can't talk you out of it.

Hmm. In her splintered selves, Clara has been both Time Lord (well, Gallifreyan) and Dalek.

Review copies for Heaven Sent have gone out, and it's getting unanimous praise.Gallifrey Base posted:...I'd even go so far as to say it's got an almost Bergman kind of feel to it. I'm serious. We've honestly never seen an episode like this before. This is the episode that solely has the The Doctor with no other supporting cast that Moffat originally wanted to submit to Big Finish like, 15 years ago.

It seems possible, based on Capaldi's comments and trailers, that Clara actually leaves/bites it/goes to a parallel dimension with a human Doctor in this coming episode. Which will be a bold move if true.

I'm also going to guess that she's a waitress in the American diner near Lake Silenco because they filmed in the same location.

I think it's more likely that the Doctor realises there's about a billion Claras out in the universe and he can just go pick up another. So he finds one, and then realises it's just not that easy, because she's not 'his' Clara.

Maybe he's already been doing that, and he's already gone through an impossibly large number of Claras.

Radio Times synopsis for Hell Bent.quote:"The Doctor faces a bittersweet homecoming as, betrayed and trapped, with both his hearts broken, he demonstrates just how far he would be willing to go if someone took everything he cared about from him. With his quest to reach Gallifrey seemingly over, the Time Lord engages his own people in a struggle that will take him to the very end of time itself, but who is the mysterious `Hybrid' mentioned in the Gallifreyan prophecy? And just what was it the Doctor left behind as his `confession'? Peter Capaldi stars in the series finale, but will return later this year alongside Alex Kingston's River Song for the traditional Christmas special. Last in the series." Ken Bones returns as the same General he played in Day of the Doctor. Also, I'm pretty sure they're not listing a few surprise cameos.
