Sea Devils And Die: GeroniMoffat's Doctor Who In The 2010s

The Silencios do look kinda camp when doing their zapping thing

US trailer for next week: http://doctorwhotv.co.uk/day-of-the-moon-bbc-america-trailer-18775.htm

The Doctor is always going to get out of it, that's what he does.

Will the whole of the next series be him getting out of it, or just the next episode.

Based on Moffat's form, I can see the whole of the next series building towards one of the doctors friends having to go back to the lake to kill him which will somehow also save him.

the 'oh-noes Moffat will kill the doctor' is reminding me of Batman RIP.

The BatmanDoctor is always going to get out of it, that's what he does. The fun is seeing how he does it.

I feel better now! :)

Moffatt was on Radio 2 talking about how he was plotting out the Christmas special and the next series, so I think we're good!

Of course the rest of the series could be about the Master (called Dr Master, PhDeath) after the Dr buys it

lol

MOFFAT

Moffatt Moffet Moffett Mofett Mofatt MOFFAT

Ahhh hah ha I stand stricken through

CAST HIM OUT

except Batman doesn't die until after Batman RIP. It's, erm, like the end of Final Crisis and then the alternating issues of Batman & Robin #9-16 and Return Of Bruce Wayne #1-6. Or something.

well, my uncle was a federal agent in the late 60s but he didn't work at the White House

He wouldn't happen to be a contestant on Survivor this season, would he?

actually if they let this mystery stand until the end of the second half-series, it's TOTALLY like the first three stories in B&R just getting on with the new status quo and letting the mystery build!

Got a feeling that the whole Nixon thing was an elaborate excuse for showing the Doctor with his feet up on the desk in the Oval Office.

How does River shoot the Stetson off the Doctor's head from the other side of the road, behind Rory?

With mad skillz?

there was a string on his hat that someone behind the camera pulled.

the bullet was a miniature TARDIS

river used a bullet that curved through space

the doctor knocked it off himself because river missed and he didn't want her to feel bad

the universe is curved, duh

*ahem*...spoilers.

Lol

so fckng stoked u guyz

SO GOOD. Thought pantomime Nixon was jokes. The Silence were great. I wasn't sure it was all going to hold together but I try not to care about that kind of thing too much so it all seemed ok to me. Next episode looks a bit silly.

I remained sceptical about the first one but I loved loved loved that.

loved the first half but think it kinda lost it a bit after that as it became clear they weren't really going to reveal anything much of note :/

i mean explain not reveal ;)

Reminded me of Ghost Light (this isn't a good thing).

(oh and jesus, that pre-credits sequence! Moffat just seems to be addicted to killing main characters then having them turn out fine, and the more he does it the more he destroys any sense of actual danger).

But he does it so well!

So, are we automatically meant to think small child = daughter of amy and the doctor?

why not daughter of amy + rory?

Because it had timelord power?

that shit made no sense at all. great stuff, though.

though we've just been given amy's worry that her and rory's baby might end up having 'a time head' because of her tardisposure?

OK so there must be weird shit ahoy if babby is conceived in the Tardis, but the pregnancy itself appears to be in a state of flux.

Maybe she gave him some time head.

she's schrodinger's baby

LOVED this

amy's child has a time head, obv....

damn i should try reading the thread first...

^ at last [xpost]

so the reason that ship in The Lodger was abandoned was because the humans rose up and killed The Silence, right?

I still think the proto-tardis in the lodger was something else, related tech but reconstructed by something other than The Silence. Honestly, I think Omega might be behind it but that's just a pet theory.

no, the Silence are still around, as per last episode at the lake

presumably their numbers have been thinned though

has this been posted? someone going through moments in the last season that the silence might be responsible for: http://westofserenity.tumblr.com/post/4444644536

okay I have no idea wtf happened but that was pretty exciting/scary/cool

still floating the idea that River is somehow Amys daughter. no idea how the fuck to even make it hold water, but it *sounds* cool, lol

although: I have to give a cockpunch to Moff for that sideways Tardis swimming pool bullshit.

so sad when River realized this was the last kiss she would ever share with the doctor b/c it was the first he had with her

Alex Kingston is HOT btw

oh yes, Dr. Elizabeth Corday

although: I have to give a cockpunch to Moff for that sideways Tardis swimming pool bullshit.

TARDIS being reconfigurable has been a thing since at least 1980 and shown multiple times in the current series

Dont care, that one was DUMB

it was FUN
