PriorMarcus posted:That defeats the entire point though. Ugh. Moffat playing with the Time War is the worse, he lacks the imagination to do anything good with it. Did everyone miss the fact that Day of the Doctor either changed the end of the Time War, or revealed that the time lock wasn't actually what The Doctor had thought it was previously?

kant posted:Are we 100% sure about this? It's like a sunny nice day outside where the shed is and that doesn't seem right compared to the scenes on Gallifrey. You'd think he'd use the device from outside the area it would effect. Plus there's the whole other level of being time lock'd that has nothing to do with the time war. Isn't it supposed to be impossible for a time lord to go back in time on Gallifrey? They're always part of the same timeline. I always assumed that it wasn't on Gallifrey, but it's quite possible for it to have been there. When talking to the moment the War Doctor does say he doesn't expect to survive.

I believe by last book they are referring to the one released a couple of years ago that was written by Eoin Colfer. I impulse bought it at a closing down sale for a couple of dollars but haven't actually felt a desire to read it.

Bicyclops posted:I hope they actually put Danny to rest and this season is about her traveling for awhile while she heals and eventually finding a place she feels like staying. The impossible girl angle is old and completely played out now so I don't see it coming back, but it always intrigued me that there were multiple Clara's out there that "real" Clara could end up taking the place of.

I wonder if RTD not coming back at all is partly responsible for Moffat showing no signs of moving on. With RTD making a totally clean break there will be the expectation that once Moffat leaves he should do the same thing, and I can't see him ever voluntarily giving up Who entirely.

Spatula City posted:Actually, I think what's going on is that that two-parter takes place prior to Death in Heaven by earth chronology. Barring the whole Mister Saxon business (when they never actually interacted until after the Master reveal) hasn't the show kept pretty consistent in The Doctor and The Master always meeting with their timelines in sync?

Speculation: Clara is gone for good at the end of this season, and part of the Christmas Special is about the Doctor getting closure to move on through also having a final encounter with River where she tells him their time is up.

The_Doctor posted: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. And so Doctor Who and Rick and Morty collide even further.

The_Doctor posted:Yeah it's Clara, she's wearing the outfit she wore in Raven. Just checked and yeah, you and Jsor seem to be right. Hopefully it's not some magic bringing her back to life scene, it would be a nice change for the revival to let a companions death stick.

Too late now from the photos, but I would have gone with a slight visual upgrade of the suit that is also in keeping with the old ones. A big problem for a modern audience is that the metallic cloth suits probably just look cheap. So play up the fact that it is a protective suit over human flesh, not a robot, by actually showing that. A transparent suit with a metallic sheen where you can see glimpses of the human limbs inside it.

thrawn527 posted:Oh god no. I like him on QI, but his stand up is atrocious. Ross Noble is amazing, but works best in smaller venues. One of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life was Ross showing up to a late show at the Rhino Room during the Adelaide Fringe and doing a 45 minute spot most of which was audience interaction.

They wouldn't kill Bill, but what about Nardole? Ohhhhhhhh. From the preview we know that more advanced cybermen appear. We also know that Nardole has an artificial body. If they converted someone with life support systems more advanced that their own they'd probably take the changes on board wouldn't they. That preview also says they can't be sure when in the Masters time line it is, but it has to be post End of Time doesn't it? It can't be from during his Mr Saxon time because the TARDIS was stuck on Earth. He was dead between that and the End of Time, so it has to be after for him.

The_Doctor posted:Man, the Red Dwarf books were really weird. The first two Red Dwarf novels (the two that Doug Naylor and Rob Grant wrote as a partnership) are two of my favourite SF novels of all time. They do such an amazing job of fleshing out ideas from the show while building a bigger realistic feeling universe.

BSam posted:Perhaps in a sequel to the Dream Doctor episode. There are two new Doctors in the TARDIS brought forth from the twelfth doctors psyche, one is the personification of his confidence, and the other his paranoia. Well the revival has had quite a few scenes where they are clambering around on the outside of the TARDIS in space...

It's tricky. On the one hand I'm really looking forward to seeing One and Twelve interact and recasting is obviously the only way to do that. On the other hand how much of that is down to me just not being super familiar with the First Doctor, having not watched any since I was a kid. A good point of comparison would be the Day Of The Doctor. Would anyone have supported them recasting the Ninth doctor since Eccleston wasn't available?
