The Master had turned the Tardis into a Paradox machine so the universe didn't go crazy when he had humans from the year 100 trillion kill their ancestors. Captain Jack smashed the paradox machine resetting time to a point before the future humans made a significant impact on the timeline. So the doctor could build his own paradox machine but that would likely put the Tardis out of order. That stupid Christmas Carol seem to have buggered up any rules established then or by Fathers Day.

Yeah, I got that, but I still feel if you're going to reference the fact of young children being killed in real, recent wars, it's something worthy of more profound treatment than it got.
Ah yes, the paradox machine.
Oh my head hurts remembering all the technobabble!

I quite liked that book. I'd like to see Susanna Clarke write a story for the show.

I could really see that working. Nicola Griffith or Kelley Eskridge might work too

Anyway - just got round to watching the latest one - thought it was very good. Will terrify kids for years to come. Some great lines, very dark, her whos playing the master was great, good build up of tension - yaY!
Now for the crashing disappointment of part 2 - where they rush through the doctor saving the day in some half baked way so they can waste loads of time on the Clara/Danny/Doctor relationship bollocks.

Now on Jeremy Kyle...can a Cyberman love a Teacher?
"at the end of the day jeremy, you just can't delete away love"
awww!
"But he's not the only one you've been seeing is he Clara. Now it says on my card your name's the Doctor. Well this is my show 'doctor' and what I say goes. Time for a DNA test!"
"i'm 3000 years old you stupid pudding brained moloid, i've saved your puny species more times than you've told people to get off your stage"
EXTERMINATE!

Meant to say, I watched this. The sets were hilarious! You could see the wrinkles in the backdrops! And Ian "struggling" to move a polystyrene carved rock from a tunnel entrance was brilliant, especially as it blew away in a studio breeze when he put it down. (Reminded me of the small sticks he "struggled" to move to block the descent of the Dalek bomb heading for the core of the Earth in Dalek Invasion of Earth.the drama channel is showing the William Hartnell story the Aztecs on Sunday afternoon as well as an adventure in time and space, not really relevant to series 8 but I thought it worth a heads up as its a freeview channel
And the fight scenes were appalling, and very long. (One involved repeatedly nudging a polystyrene boulder in front of the temple).
The Doctor was excellent, though. There should be more whittling of pulley systems and less frantic gnomicness.
Why doesn't the Doctor ever mention his fiancée? (Or his granddaughter, come to that?)
I thought it was amusing, so i posted. That's all.
I'm guessing it's a bit of a turn off.

He's an eejit. Most stories in this series have had new enemies, only the daleks and the cybermen missie are old ones. Two stories out of ten seems a pretty reasonable balance to me.

Which reminds me, that little waistcoat thing's all very well, but am I going mad or most of the time on the show is he wearing some thing with sparkly thread knitted through it like your nan might wear to the bingo?
