Dr Who Christmas Special 2012

having now watched the xmas special 3 times, I love it even more, and I'm even liking the new TARDIS more, apart from the spiny things round the middle, above the controls. though I'm totally hooked on who anyway.

so how you reckon this season is gonna play out? I know there's been quite a few love interests, rose- but she fell for him and it was a gradual thing. martha deffo though again it was her for him. donnna, nope. amy, hmmmm, mixed vibes there with the whole rory thing. this time round it seems to be him that's fallen for her (perhaps only though because she's *impossible* and he's intrigued, but I think there's more to it).

My wild speculation is that he's gonna end up meeting her throughout time (and space, possibly), same girl but different life but she'll keep dying, slipping out of his grasp. Then they'll get it together for a short while then some huge catastrophic event sends her backwards in his timeline (weeping angels) and because of timey wimey stuff and not being able to cross his own time stream he won't be able to do anything about it. (but then she didn't recognise him either in asylum of the daleks, because he made them forget about him?)

i dunno, I'm pretty baked and it seems plausible to me anyway. New series looks ace, can't wait. when's it on? summer?

oh, and not directly related, but anyone else think amy and rory were worthy of a 2 part departure?
 
He's married. He can't be off having other love interests and snogging girls.

Oh, and that was completely gratuitous.
 
When the 1996 TV movie came out there was a big fuss over The Doctor kissing his assistant. Now he's snogging everyone, even members of the same sex!
 
now then... I normally love the Dr Who christmas specials but just couldnt get into this one. Even my nephew who is the Walter of the Dr Who world (see muppet movie if confused) said it wasnt very good.

wil watch it again thouhg just to make sure it wasnt a combination of being too full and present opening that was to blame
 
Watched it, didnt like it, and that falling off the cloud thing was just stupid on a whole variety of levels.
 
I thought the Doctors behavior towards Straxx was appalling. He was a horrible racist bully.

Yeah he was a bit wasn't he? It all seemed very unnecessary, but maybe they were trying to illustrate that the Doctor with no companion turns into a bit of a tosspot. Either way, it's a show for kids and the hero shouldn't be a bully.
 
He's married. He can't be off having other love interests and snogging girls.

Oh, and that was completely gratuitous.

forgot he's married actually, but surely with the two different timelines going in opposite directions we won't be seeing much of River, any time see's her it'll be earlier and earlier (for her) in their relationship. Wonder if we'll ever get to the see the episode where he gives her the sonic screwdriver that allows her to be saved in the library. Isn't she dead anyway..? timey wimey, head melting
 
we've only got a couple of episodes of hartnell, I bet if they had all of them the grumpy old man act would wear thin pretty quickly

"only got a couple of episodes of Hartnell" is, I'm sorry, and no offence intended, bullshit. Yes there are some episodes missing, but there is a fair amount of Hartnell stuff, most of it in fact, that is complete and watchable - I've seen it myself recently on one of my "watch all of it from the beginning" drives (which I do every so often). Troughton suffers far more from missing episodes.
 
I'd do a facepalm smilie but can't for some reason. What makes it worse is that I've watched it recently :)

:facepalm: There's one for you. They deffo should have had a two parter, if only because the angels are the best bad guys in it!
 
Is it racist to say all Sontarans look the same?

They don't, some sontarans are much uglier than others.
