deanb Posted September 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/doctorwho/entries/32369834-a751-4dca-8829-b1a9ec3fb1cb River Song to return for the Xmas special. Making her the only companion to pass through 3 doctors I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted September 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 Oooh this was a compelling start to a series. Even with the obvious wish-washy away of Missy's return. I await eagerly for next weeks instalment. Given Doctor isn't Batman and will kill if it suits his needs it's all up in the air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCP Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Agreed, impressive season opening, I liked it a lot more than Deep Breath.I can't help but feel that if The Doctor wanted to prevent the Daleks from ever being created he could have just rescued kid-Davros, brought him on the TARDIS, and raised him not to be a douche.

deanb Posted September 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 It's a bit big headed of The Doctor to assume his walking away would be the be all and end all of Davros as a kiddie, that no one but the Doctor could save him. And that in all of time and space there would only be one person named "Davros". But narratively that's the case. Anyway probably going to find that given the teaser trailer on the end he goes back and saves Davros with the intent of raising him up and making sure he's nice, well adjusted and dies with all his own hands and just two eyes. (and in front of the Doctor, maybe with two hands around his neck then crushed, atomised and kept in a box of goo) Snake guy was cool. Nice bit of cameos too at the start, all those welsh quarries.

TCP Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 I really like the new dynamic with Missy helping Clara / The Doctor out, with a hint of maybe turning around and killing everyone. The line where she got upset after The Doctor said Davros is his archenemies was great.Also I'm enjoying that it's a multi episode story. I think last season ended with one, IIRC, but this is the first time in awhile we've had a multi episode story that wasn't the season ender.

deanb Posted October 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/doctorwho/entries/953c5b1f-3cc8-4db9-8184-f1b6567260f1 New Doctor Who spin-off coming called "Class". It'll be on BBC Three though (Torchwood was on BBC Two) which doesn't give it much of an approval from BBC since they're binning BBC3 off TV early next year, which is when this starts filming Be interesting how that'll work out if it's online only. Can be given a quick death if it works out naf I guess. Though Torchwood did find itself near the end with some proper sci-fi stories. Though Stars kinda bungled the last series, it was quite interesting concept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCP Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 Ooo that's exciting. No mention of who's staring, if it features Coal Hill you'd think maybe it's going to be a Clara centric spinoff, but no mention of her anywhere. Torchwood started off as a BBC3 series as well, if I recall correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted October 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 It seems it did. Must have had a BBC 2 run a few days later or I wouldn't have been able to watch it (my mum was a late joiner to Freeview, heck she's still on a CRT TV) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Fisher King stuff was kinda neat though I don't fully understand what happened at the end. The beginning with him explaining a bootstrap paradox was kinda neat. I still severely dislike the glasses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 He sent himself a message telling him how he was going to have already defeated the monster in the past from the future. I am also not a fan of the glasses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted November 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 So this weeks was I believe about islamophobia, but it was a very subtle theme. These radicalised Zygons. I am liking all the episodes this series being two parters, harks back to the older Doctor Who days a bit. Also a reduced Clara presence too which housemate is happy with.

TheFlyingGerbil Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 What's wrong with Clara? I'd certainly swap out those ridiculous scenes of the doctor playing the guitar for one of her going pretty much anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted November 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 She's just not hugely keen on her, finds her annoying and not much growth. Personally I find she's the most recent in string of companions that're "destined" for stuff which happens in first series then never comes up much again e.g: Rose - Badwolf (though that does crop up again) Amy - Cracks/Silence Clara - Impossible Girl Ideally she'd have jumped in his timestream and that'd be it she'd be gone to maybe pop up as other versions of herself down the line. Personally I wish they'd just have companions being companions instead of tied in with prophetic mumbo jumbo (current being "the hybrid").

TCP Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Clara is the best companion. Yet Zygon Clara is even better... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlyingGerbil Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Isn't she leaving soon? I'd there any hints about the new one? Not necessarily who they are but what sort of person or anything like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCP Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 There was some rumours about her leaving, but there were rumours last year too. I don't think anything was announced or confirmed. I'm hoping she stays at least one more season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted November 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 BBC posted about it other month so yeah she's leaving this series: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/doctorwho/entries/2a2689a8-5c52-46af-8e69-2fad42c46da3 She's generally adamant she'll be hanging out with him forever so I doubt it'll be a semi-mutual break up like Martha/Donna but more of a forced separation like Ponds/Rose. Though unlikely to be a death since we're kinda pushing a "death isn't working right" theme in this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
