Speculation time, here we go. One of the spoilerhounds on GB says that Missy's identity is related to a scene toward the end of Deep Breath. I'm going with his face reflected in the plate he held up to the Half Faced Man. The "time can be rewritten" line in the promo got me thinking. What if at some crucial point in the Doctor's time stream, something got hosed up, producing two separate and parallel threads. One thread, the Doctor goes through his life and ends up with his current Capaldi face, and in the other thread, he ends up regenerating eventually into Missy. We have Chris Addis- excuse me, Seb, who seems to be Missy's companion of sorts, we have an evil Clara, the next episode is called gently caress me if I know how

Reactions are starting to trickle in for Dark Water, and they range from "insensitive to people who've just suffered a loss" to "I have no idea how I'm going to review this".

That's what I'm hoping. Also lol the Missy reveal was apparently excluded in the preview copies, replaced with two scenes covered up with big "SCENE EXCLUDED" title cards. e: uhhhhh either somebody hosed up or this is bullshit. http://moviepilot.com/posts/2014/10...l,manual,manual HD DAD fucked around with this message at 16:45 on Oct 28, 2014 |

The pic is a photoshop taken from one of the promo pics, which makes me doubt things, but another person on Twitter who's seen the episode (again, with the reveal excluded) suspects that she's a Time Lady helping to bring back Gallifrey using the Cybermen, so...it might line up?

Yeah, "I'm a huge rear end in a top hat who likes to push the Doctor's buttons" is oddly a little more refreshing motivation than trying to angst up his past and make him all weepy and broken.

I have a secret hope that the cliffhanger for this episode is somehow a reveal of an old-school Tenth Planet Cyberman. It's not going to happen in a million years, but whatevs.

They've definitely gotten a bit more creative with the cinematography this season, which is definitely reminiscent of RTD's more whimsical tone. I really like it. The past few years were kinda stuffy looking in comparison. So, on GB someone pointed to a clip someone posted of the filming of the "you know who I am" scene. Here, you can see what follows after Capaldi turn around and one can assume that Missy elaborates on who she is. Check out :18, and a few people think she's saying "...Rani for short". It's a slow news day, so make of it what you will. I think it might add some fuel to the fire. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_jRKsixuDs HD DAD fucked around with this message at 18:59 on Oct 30, 2014 |

That's just someone's phone vid filtered through an image stabilizer to reduce shaking. It has that warpy effect sometimes. And in a recent interview with the director, she said that she had Michelle Gomez mouth the reveal so that it couldn't be heard, and they'd just ADR it in later.

She could also be saying "...Rani, of course". Honestly I'd be okay with her being Romana, and it would make slightly more sense in regards to her feelings about the Doctor. But eh I guess we'll see in like 26 hours.

Early reviews are glowing for Death in Heaven. Also confirming there's no time-fuckery or "it was all a dream" resolution. And we find out who Seb is, which is apparently mind blowing. I'm guessing he's also the Master.

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.

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

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).

It looks so retro. I love it. Also, some things over from Gallifreybase. As usual, their validity should always be questioned. This got printed by The Mirror, which isn't always uh..reliable, but was later confirmed by one of the few spoilerhounds that is consistently reliable. The premier involves Davros, and the Doctor being presented with the option to kill him as a child to prevent the Dalek's creation. Could be interesting and dark as gently caress if true.

Yeah, Missy is involved and at some point kidnaps Clara. But that doesn't mean both ideas couldn't work together. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if a few of those 'in the know' are getting deliberate misinformation.

PriorMarcus posted:Coleman has always seemed desperate to leave. While Clara basically gelled well in the last season I don't think the actress ever did, and it was only the lack of a better offer stopping her. Now that this ITV drama (hahaha) has come knocking she's probably running out the door. I know there were rumblings about there being no full series next year (along with Capaldi leaving), but have they become more than just that? I haven't been keeping up with everything. e:fb

More poo poo regarding episodes 10-12.quote:"Clara probably never expected her friend Rigsy to need the emergency TARDIS phone number she gave him after they defeated the Boneless in Bristol. Yet today he’s in big trouble, sentenced to die for a murder he can’t remember committing. The Doctor and Clara’s campaign to exonerate Rigsy leads them to a secret London street where alien refugees hide in plain sight. Once they gain access, they’ll learn the terrible answers to various questions. Such as: what is a chronolock? And what exactly does it mean to face the raven?" quote: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? I'm really looking forward to Face The Raven and Heaven Sent, and I'm hoping that Hell Bent doesn't turn into a huge mess, as finales tend to do.

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.

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.
