Blimey there’s a lot been going on here today!

@MissShannonKent: I’d rather like to see Capaldi in the role for a good while before considering his successor – at the moment I can’t think of anyone I’d rather see as The Doctor than him.

@JimTheFish; @PhaseShift: I recall Adrian Hodges saying right after the announcement that if a second series…[Read more]

@tomsscarf  and @MonochromeDimension – Thank you so very much for the suggestions! I will put those episodes on my viewing list for this weekend. And yes, that’s my impression of the Second Doctor, that he’s very sweet, which I know I will love. And I suspect that he’s the very Doctor that my grandmother and great grand enjoyed the most.…[Read more]

@MissShannonKent and @PhaseShift

It will send me screaming from my computer screen.

Besides, it’s more than a little impolite to start talking about an actor’s replacement when the poor bugger’s barely had a chance to get three lines out. 😉

@missShannonKent

I think that may be a request that will send members of the site screaming from their computer screens. We kind of got “next-Doctor-speculation-itis” after the first four weeks of last years silly season, and still haven’t recovered. Your can check out some suggestions on the first twelve pages of the Next Doctor thread (Part…[Read more]

@Bluesqueakpip @Purofilion @MissShannonKent @Faegrl

Interesting discussions, some of which have been touched on before.

re actors “owning” the character – much like the story told at any given time is the story the writer wants to tell (and has no duty to uphold any notions of continuity unless they want to) – each actor needs to “own” the…[Read more]

@Bluesqueakpip and @purofilion – I couldn’t agree with you more. I have the same view that Clara is not “in love” with the Doctor and it would be a bit of a stretch. Although, some fans believe so and like to “ship” those two, because of the kiss and the sexual innuendo scene with the icy staircase. HOWEVER, that was one version of Clara who died,…[Read more]

@MissShannonKent and @Purofillon – I’m answering this one in ‘The Next Doctor’ forum, because it seems to belong there much more than the sofa.

Clara fancies the Doctor. She says so, under the influence of the truth field. She also loves him.

But is she ‘in love’ with him? Doubtful. The entire ‘boyfriend’ thing in The Time of The Doctor is set…[Read more]

@FaeGrl – Okay, just a warning! Best thing to remember is he’s just regenerated so is not in a proper frame of mind at the time. Just wondering; how much have you watched of the Seventh Doctor’s serials so far? Interested to know your opinions on his personality once you start watching his second season.

@missshannonkent – I actually hope Danny…[Read more]

@MissShannonKent – remember that this site has a spoilers policy. Speculation is fine – but any information which is definitely a spoiler should be posted in the Spoilers forum, only.

So if your ‘rumours’ are based on information from the set, you should post there.

When it comes to Peter Capaldi, my only concern is his outfit. Seriously…he looks like a magician. I have no worries when it comes to his acting capabilities. I am more worried about the direction Moffat will decide to go. For me, Moffat either makes brilliant decisions, or terrible ones. I think the show, as well as the new Doctor will be great…[Read more]
