[emanymton]

Why is the tardis blowing up?

Why is the tardis blowing up?

They might explain that next week, perhaps?

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Meh

 

[ruffneck23]

Apart from: best Who cliffhanger ever, surely?

Dunno if I am getting carried away but possibly my favourite ever episode . I am completey convinced by Matt Smiths Dr now.

Lets hope next weeks matches it.

 

[innit]

Meh

Predictolol

eta watching it soon and very very excited after seeing these comments! what no "next time"?!

 

[ruffneck23]

Just to be continued...

 

[Maurice Picarda]

I am completey convinced by Matt Smiths Dr now.
.

He didn't actually have to do all that much, and you could imagine Tennant playing every scene there in pretty much the same way.

What I'm convinced by, without a shadow of a doubt, is Moffat.

What are you doing on a thread possibly infested with spoilers then? Away with you!

 

[rollinder]

fuck, fuck, fuck

how are they going to resolve that?

that was New Adventures' levels of The Doctor getting everything so fucking wrong and ending up broken

re Amy's part of the cliffhanger - so that's why we had her saving Bracewell from exploding with the power of love

Was it the light (or just me) or did the doctor's bow tie change from red to blue in some shots?

Spoiler: for speculation

the Dr's comments re Amy's life making no sense and her house having too many empty rooms - like last week's imaginary upstairs, and apart from the photo of her and Rory everything we(River) saw in her house was from her childhood = more suggestions that she's not real/never really stopped being a little girl?

Spoiler: for people who haven't seen it yet

oh and where those super camouflage autons?

and - who else jumped at that terrifiing new/old cyberman and it's skull/tentacles *shiver*

They really wouldn't go for the Dallas option, would they?

Yes and yes.

But something seems very off: how did all those races get time travel? We know that the Daleks have the capability, but the Cybermen didn't, nor do any of the others.

There's something very wrong with the set-up, and it's going to be the source of the solution.

Hmm. An Alliance might well share technology, for the duration. Suspect it's a potential plot hole that won't be addressed.

 

[DotCommunist]

As I said earlier in the thread, all the old baddies are coming back. Props to me. If the nature of reality itself is breached then the possibility for all of Who's enemies to join up exists. Amy was wearing tight jeans, which I can only approve of

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Excellent - enjoyed that. And I liked the fact that there was no trailor for next week so all the kiddies - and me - would worry.

Plus I hope that thousands of children are demanding to go to Stonehenge....I am!

if the people aren't really people, how do we know they're really in the past?
oh and slipping in and out of the cracks in time ?

my fucked up brain started soundtracking part of the programme with a certain Spinal Tap song & intro

Mr. QofG's started quoting the song....until I shushed him

And from the Medusa. Archetypal fingy, innit. Collective unconscious 'nallthat.

 

[TheHoodedClaw]

Oh, aye!

Pretty bloody marvellous ep though.

Spoiler: more speculation

I don't mean that the whole series hasn't happened but that she could be something that doesn't know it's not real and she stays alive / stops being dead next week via the power of memories and dreams (and probably the Doctor nipping back to a scene or two we've already seen to seed a few thoughts in her head...

 

[TAE]

Super episode

Wow, just wow. Next week should be interesting.

Hmm ... did they just put the one thing into a trap that you should never ever put in a trap?

I havent been that convinced with MS's Smith so far until tonight but his emotion at the end did it for me. Much kudos to the Moff tho

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

finally a big episode that felt both big, but also restrained

and thankfully no power of love shit yet

[Santino]

Doctor Who undone by a Coalition.

Now we know why they closed the new visitor centre at Stonehenge.

 

[ruffneck23]

That could tie in with something strange that happened in the angels 2 parter . Watch it again

Actually, you could watch this episode again too, specifically the Dr with Cleopatra and the Dr in the Pandorum.



And from a previous episode - "There's one thing you never put in a trap if you're smart, if you value your continued existence, if you have any plans about seeing tomorrow there's one thing you never ever put in a trap.....Me."



And from another previous episode - "Amy Pond, there is something you had better understand about me and its very important and one day your life may depend on it. I am definitely a mad man with a box"


Course, I could be wrong (and probably am), but its definitely a popular theory.

 

[Stigmata]

I guess given the circumstances any clips at all from the next episode would qualify as a major spoiler. So no trailer.


One nitpick: would Amy still have that photo of Rory?

 

[FridgeMagnet]

After that was over I said to my friend: "Well that wasn't bad in itself, and I didn't get the twist until when they revealed it, even if I was a bit drunk, and if I trusted them to conclude the thing properly it could end up well. Only after the fucking Angels I don't trust them at all and I think they'll muff it in a really embarrassingly shit way."
