Dr Who… Awesome News If You're A Fan
Discussion
I enjoyed that one. It put me in mind of the pirate episode & I was half expecting the ghost to be some kind of computer program, then again they did that with the James Corden ep, so it's good to see a different slant on a familiar idea.
On the down side, it's giving my seven year old nightmares & I've had to stop her watching it.

Shirley thats the whole idea of Dr Who. 
I remember watching the Daleks through a keyhole into the living room from the hallway I was soooooo scared. But it made me a fan for life.
I'd draw the line at letting her watch Rolf Harris though.
Rolphypnol? 
The nightmares are getting her up two or three times in the night, the delicate flower. It's easier to record it & watch Britain's got budgies or something on CowellTV 1.
I took her to the Dr. Who experience last year & she nearly had kittens during the 3D finale. She is only 7!

My 17 year old son ( and his 18 year old girlfriend ) both found it scary, so not surprising a seven year old was frightened by it. Maybe an idea to vet each show to decide which ones she can watch - I did this years ago for my son with Torchwood

The Cybermen in the next episode have been re designed. I expect they will not be Cyber industries versions.
That's good news - I could never take those too seriously when they marched, even though Cybermen were and are my favourite baddies 
I didn't realise they were in the next episode, I always make a point of NOT watching the 'next week' bit of any programme

I enjoyed this week's episode a lot more than the last couple. But they were so poor it hasn't been a high bar to exceed. I liked the creepiness and the explanation and the involvement again of the TARDIS being a character. Not as much fun as The Doctor's Wife, but a nod in the same direction at least.
I still find Clara quite straightforward and superficial though - fun and sparky and quizzical, but not actually very interesting yet. And being told there's Something Very Interesting about her all the time doesn't actually make it so.

Funnily enough I had exactly the same thought myself yesterday.Whilst she's very pretty and all that, she doesn't have the spark of Amy Pond (even the little girl version!).
All I can say is, she better be VERY bloody interesting when it comes out!

They're not in the next episode. The next episode is 'Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS', which is followed by 'The Crimson Horror'. The one after that it the Cybermen one, called 'Nightmare in Silver'.M.
Want to hear an inriguing and very 'spoilery' rumour concerning the 50th anniversary special...?
...apparently John Hurt will be playing 'The Doctor' but incredibly he'll be playing the 9th Doctor...yes The 9th Doctor!
He'll be the one who fought The Time Wars against the Daleks.
This will bump Eccleston, Tennant and Smith up the 10th, 11th and 12th incarnations of the Doctor respectively.
It's only a rumour but it wouldn't surprise me actually.

Well we didn't see any regeneration from McGann into Eccleston, so there 'could' be some missing time or generation of Doctor inbetween....apparently John Hurt will be playing 'The Doctor' but incredibly he'll be playing the 9th Doctor...yes The 9th Doctor!

Is it just me BTW or is there a recurring theme of mentioning the Lake District? Sure it's been mentioned a couple of times already and then there was the Kendal Mintcake mention this week.
Seems to be a few this series. Ice and the Tardis disliking Clara seem to be others.Gassing Station | TV, Film, Video Streaming & Radio | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
