@blenkinsopthebrave  @countscarlioni  The key point I thought came from Bill when she realised that everybody must seem like a child to the Doctor. Well, not everybody, and so no wonder he’s yearning for more `grown-up’ conversations with Missy.

Good point — “Grow the Hell up!” was a surprise.  It’s another sign of “wearing thin” — I wonder…[Read more]

@missrori  Excellent point — the TARDIS is his friend.  She may come to his rescue as only a Magic Box can (or its resident genie/fairy/wish-granting carp) can.

Come to think of it, the Tardis itself is a brilliant concept for creating a variety of stories in different settings, without needing to take a chunk of run-time setting up plot r…[Read more]

@missrori:

Hmm, I suppose we shan’t know until we see it. Of course, it also depends on Who the Doctor is.

@tardigrade:

Babylon 5? Really enjoyable and a great shame when it was axed. The X files never interested me for some reason.

@missrori, @tardigrade

I think there is a big difference between one storyline running through a season, and an arc that slowly unfolds or is slowly revealed. Moffat does the latter very well, I think, but this is not what Chibnall and Strong seem to be referring to. They seem to be talking about something closer to Broadchurch. Would that work,…[Read more]

@missrori

One idea being floated is one giant storyline running through a season, ala Broadchurch. Who thinks that might work?

If that means a story arc across a season, but not involving every episode in the season- yes. I don’t think many would argue against that- it’s pretty much an expectation really. If it’s one long story across the who…[Read more]

@jimthefish @missrori @blenkinsopthebrave

I want impressed by James Strong’s opinion, especially if it reflects Chibnall’s. I like the sound of bold and risky, but it come across as a bit more RTD than Moff in tone. In any case, it certainly should be different. A happy mix between the two might work better for the larger audience.
