@arbutus  That’s how I feel too.

Hey, we were all right about the vault, it was the most OBVIOUS answer all along.  Was fun to bonkerize in the meantime.

@missrori “I’m thinking of his lines in “Deep Breath” about all his bad years and the mistakes he’s made.  He wants to be better than that, and trying so hard…so hard.”  So true, and so sad.  This Doctor really pulls at my heartstrings.

@bendubz11 Might be more than just an Easter egg, might be a hint about the story arc.

@whisht, @thane15, @pedant, @wolfweed and everyone here, I’m really enjoying reading your posts.   I have so much to comment on and say, which oddly enough leaves me feeling like the Doctor’s comment to the Pope, plus there is so much I wouldn’t no where to st…[Read more]

@mudlark Your comparison to Plato’s cave allegory is brilliant.

@steffstaff Wow, great first comment, welcome!

This episode helps to clarify a lot of things I’ve been thinking since ‘Silence in the Library’ and several other episodes where Moffat keeps bringing us back to this theme.  It’s all very thrilling and tantalizing.   It’s tying in my h…[Read more]

@morpho Rembrant

@mersey and a few other members have a lot of interesting ideas surrounding that.

@wolfweed Do love the bonkerizing.

Can’t help but notice that most people on this forum really liked this episode, which makes me feel awkward to admit I didn’t really enjoy it.  I admire the themes and metaphors and the concept of a blind Doctor, but was still struggling to enjoy this episode.

After reading all the comments on the Forum I feel…[Read more]

idiotsavon Wow, not sure that is bonkers but downright interesting.  It would go with my metacrisis theory, it also helps justify my pipe dream that it’s the 8th Doctor.  (;

Ahhhh, yeah, this is what I love…keep the bonkers theories going.  (:

So, my Metacrisis theory, way too crazy?

@whisht Nice theory.  Alan Moore, ha ha!  Can’t beat that.

Okay, crazy theory about vault: ME is forever bitter she was made to live forever because of the Doctor’s misguided mercy, so as revenge she gives meta crisis human Doctor 10 her other chip, which means he is forced to outlive Rose which turns him bitter, dangerous and the true Hybrid.  Metacrisis, part human, part time lord and now part Mire…[Read more]

@arch Oh! Now that’s a fun theory to chew on. Davros, interesting – sort of has the same feel as Omega in the vault for me; this feeling the Doctor’s mercy is going to cause him a lot of short term trouble.

I get what everyone is saying about Clara’s story being done, but her one heart beat away from death having joy rides with the ME/Nightmare/Ashildr is what clearly caused the cracks in time.  The Doctor knew this when he took her out of the isolation chamber, so how unfinished is her story if that is the case?

Also, all this talk about how the…[Read more]

I feel it’s a lot more fun to play around with “pie in the sky” theories.

In the end, probably the Master, but let’s get some crazy theories going before the big reveal.

@thane15 I think Clara ends up the Dalek in the Cloisters saying “Kill ME” and Ashildr ends up the nightmare child. They are the hybrid in my opinion, and why I think one of them may be in the vault, or it could be the obvious and it’s the Master.

Clara would make sense, but so would Ashildr.  You all know I believe her to be the Nightmare Child, so it wouldn’t surprise me.  The writers are certainly trying to set it up to be the Master in our minds, I just have a hard time from experience believing it would be that obvious.  I believe Clara ends up trapped in a Dalek in the Cloisters, so…[Read more]

@pedant I will go look for that. Thanks. (:

Episode seemed a little long to me, which usually means I was bored somehow.  Not into this one, more “Meh” than actual dislike.  Was interested in the clues about the vault.  The Master seems to be the obvious answer, but I’m suspicious when it’s aiming to be so obvious.  Clara clearly needed to be contained, but so did Me, Ashildr.

I’m really enjoying this season.  Loved Capaldi’s Doctor in season 9 and with his new companion I’m enjoying him even more in season 10.

So far this season is just what I was hoping for.  Wanted more whimsy, more humor, a playful friendship with the companion, and more thought provoking questions and themes, even loving the costumes, scenery a…[Read more]

Why does the pond narrator sound like Colony Sarff?

@nerys You should listen to the audio stories starring Paul McGann, there is even a set with Alex as River.

I like an older Doctor personally.  He would rock the part.

@ichabod @bluesqeakpip  Oh, how I’ve missed your insights!  (:  Enjoying reading everyone’s comments, missed this.
