This is disturbing. Some fans think Peter Capaldi actually wanted to do another year but was actually forced out because he's not appealing to young women in the audience. They claim if you see him in person and ask him about leaving he just looks sad.

And I completely forgot to watch tonight but I DVR and will watch it (and The Blacklist) Sunday or Monday.

Disappointed the person in the vault is the obvious one. And this Doctor being blind thing is silly. He'll just regenerate new eyes when Capaldi leaves.

All existing Doctor Who episodes are being made available to China. The article claims up to series 15. Which unless that's a misprint that means Doctor Who is going to run for another 5 years. Apparently there's been rumors of cancellation.

The next episode is apparently going to be have some lines cut due to them referring to terrorist attacks in England.

The Doctor Who spinoff Class ratings are bad, so its probably not getting a second series.

Next week soldier from Victorian England somehow end on Mars where they foolishly think tbey can take on The Empress of Mars. As the Doctor says they "don't stand a chance against the Ice Warriors". Earth in 2017 wouldn't stand a chance against an Ice Warrior invasion without the Doctor.

I can't believe how much better this series is than the last - I was so disappointed with the last one that I'd almost decided not to bother with this one.

The story lines are much better and I like the way that the Doctor is being forced to rediscover his (for want of a better word) humanity - I felt he had really lost it last series. Also I like the new companions, Bill brings a refreshingly down-to-earth attitude to it all, while Nardole's dry wit and tendency to constantly challenge The Doctor's decisions, while at the same time remaining loyal to him, is really entertaining.

Hope you're enjoying it too looney!

I was disappointed that all we got of the Movellans in "The Pilot" was a cameo which made them look bad. I hope we get more out of the original Cyberman.

I still wish they'd spend less time on Earth. Mars is still in our system. They have an entire universe to play with and they insist on staying in our solar system. Hope new guy takes series to other worlds. And give us another non-human companion.

My impression was that the Doctor promised to guard the vault and not travel away from earth. Maybe that is why they have been staying close to home.

I was right its a prequel. Alpha Centuri is from classic Doctor Who.

Who was remote controlling the TARDIS? Missy? The Time Lords? The future Doctor?
Why does Missy ask the Doctor twice if he's alright?

Fan theories as to why Missy was worried about the Doctor:

1) He was actually infected when he fireballed that lab and so he's dying (getting ready to regenerate)
2) He was actually shoot with a real bullet and so he's dying (getting ready to regenerate)

Fan theory considering the TARDIS:
1) The TARDIS senses the Doctor is dying and took Nardole to find the nearest other Time Lord, Missy to get him help
2) The Master (John Simms) remote controlled it as a way to get Missy out of the Vault
3) Nardole was only supposed to appear in the early episodes then be written out and they had nothing for him to do in this episode so the whole TARDIS taking him away is just a way to explain his not being on Mars with the Doctor and Bill.

John Simms will return as The Master on June 24th in "World Enough and Time" probably to start the events that will result in "The Doctor Falls".

Rumors:

1: David Bradley (played William Hartnell playing the Doctor in a BBC documentary) spotted in Cardiff supposedly with a script in hand. The assumption people are making is that they're filming the Christmas special and he's in it as the first Doctor.

2: The first of the last twp episodes is going to see a friend of the Doctor die. That would be Bill, Nordel or Missy. Missy wouldn't die she' just regenerate. I think its Bill. I've thought that since the first clip of Bill saying she'd go on this adventure "even if it kills me".

Rumor concerning next series/season: it may be one long story taking the entire series/season to tell. In any case new show runner is supposedly going to stir things up. They alwasy say that of course.

Nordel got it wrong. The crew of the Mary Celeste jumped ship to escape being exterminated by the Daleks which had materialized on board, chasing the first Doctor through time and space.

Apparently the Ninth Legion did in fact disappear. The rest is total fiction. The best part of the episode is at the end. Do you believe Missy really wants to change? I think her sarcastic remark about an evil scheme is more likely the truth.

Next week the original Cyberman and John Simms Master.I didn't like the character so I'm not looking forward to that. Except it may be interesting to see how he reacts to learning his future self is a woman. The Doctors usually bicker.

Final episode of the season is going to be extended to an hour.

That first scene is clearly a set up for the Christmas episode. As the rest of the episode is a flash back.

And anyone who's see classic Doctor Who knows we've already met The Master. He's just disguised.

I knew the instant he was on camera who the Master was.

Now Missy will have to make choose, her self in the form of the Master, or her friend the Doctor.

One thing, the Doctor never called himself Doctor Who. What William Hartnell said in response to Ian Chesterton calling him "Doctor Foreman" (because the TARDIS was in Foreman's junkyard) was "Who? Doctor who?". The Doctor didn't know who Ian was referring to. Its true that for most of the classic series the credits did list the characters as "Doctor Who" but they eventually fixed that to "The Doctor". Who was never his name it was always a question. Because he never actually said what his name was. Except Jon Pertwee's Doctor did when UNIT needed a name for their records claim his name was "John Smith". That was an obvious alias.

I'm avoiding articles and videos on Doctor Who in case they might spoil the final episode, the Christmas episode or who the new Doctor will be. I want to see the new Doctor when he appears in the episode. In fact I wish they'd stop announcing the Doctor is leaving. Just let us be surprised when it happens.

BTW apparently just about everyone involved in Doctor Who is leaving, so that when the guy from Broadchurch takes over next series/season he'll have almost entirely new cast and staff.

That reminds me I'm set to record final season of Broadchurch on BBC America. Its coming up tomorrow I believe.

Dang it. They changed the starting time. Fortunately the DVR had the correct time so its been recording. But I didn't know it was going to be on earlier. I thought I was turning the TV on early that I'd catch the last 25 minutes of the previous episode not be late to the last episode of the series/season. I knew it was a longer episode but I guess I thought it would run later not start earlier.



Click to reveal..
That line about being "The Doctor, the Original you might say" comes from the original Doctor, William Hartnell. So Capaldi was quoting his oldest version of himself while being attacked by a cyberman,

The final scene with Bill was too much like the final scene with Clara. Having the Doctor see past companions is what happened when Tom Baker regenerated into Peter Davison and when Peter Davison regenerated into Colin Baker. Nice touch, even if the regeneration hasn't been allowed to be completed yet.

Then at the end there that second person quoting the line about being the Original Doctor, is in fact the First Doctor, played by the same actor who played William Hartnell in a BBC documentary about him. History is repeating itself, The First Doctor didn't want to change and the now Capaldi's Doctor doesn't want to either. Of course by the end of the Christmas episode both will come to accept change. The funny thing is. the First Doctor regenerates after his first encounter with the Cybermen.

As for the Master. The Master has survived not being able to regenerate before. So even if Missy is never seen again at some point when somebody decides a new Master is in order, they'll come up with some reason why Simm's Master was wrong about Missy not regenerating. I think it was pretty stupid of Simm's Master wanting to murder himself just to spite the Doctor. Been then I've always thought this version of the Master was an idiot. I am not a Simms fan.


Now for 6 months I have to avoid anybody who would try to spoil the Christmas special for me, especially the ending in which we'll find out who the new Doctor is.
