@ScaryB –

“This phrase does not compute, LOL “

Ha!  It could of course mean Clara is actually the Doctor’s unknown delinquent son?

@HTPBDET –

“Who needs Guantanamo Bay when you have Twin Dilemma?”

I heard […]

@Bluesqueakpip – Clara’s mother’s maiden name was Ravenwood?  I missed that.. another Indy Jones reference!  Does this mean the episode with John Hurt is gonna be rubbish!?

@Shazzbot – you’re welcome!  I think it’s a worthy discussion, not least because us fans so often talk about ‘our’ doctors and ‘our’ companions, or an individual’s stories and time in the TARDIS, that you don’t […]

@ardaraith @shazzbot @HTPBDET –

Just catching up on your discussion of companions and the Docs morality – some illuminating and fascinating observations there, thank you.

For my money, I think @HTPBDET is […]

@Bluesqueakpip – I’d suspect so.  7-2 seems to have references to all the old-who docs in close to consecutive order  (assuming we see something 6 and 7 related in the next 2 eps) but I’d been thinking they’d run […]

@HTPBDET – belated thanks for the info on Hartnell as the 1st doc (or not).  Brain of Morbius was actually the first Doctor Who novel I read, but I’ve never seen it and my memory has done a Doctor, to coin a […]

Ok, bonkers theory from me time…

Part 1, Clara:  building on @Blenkinsopthebrave ‘s summary of possible true identities of Clara (Docs Daughter, Docs Nanny, Docs Mother, Susan) can I throw the following into […]

@HTPBDET – Well, yes, I expect in all likelihood the Fall of the Eleventh will prove to refer to the Eleventh Doctor, but somethings been nagging at me about it, it’s almost too telegraphed.  Perhaps just because […]

@ScaryB, @Shazzbot, @phaseshift – thanks!  Hopefully I can pad it out into a bonkers theory succinctly explaining the entire history and future of the doctor purely based on North/South relations.  And road […]

@Lula – I think kissing Jenny was just over exuberance on the Doctors part, presumably because of relief at being freed from petrification,  rather than any romantic intent.  Doc 11 has shown as more alien than 10 […]

Really enjoyed that.  Have always been a bit surprised to see Gatiss named as potential future showrunner, given his previous eps haven’t exactly been consistent (and despite people’s varying views on Moffat’s […]

@shazzbot – I agree that omega would need more intro into nu-who and would be amazed if we get anymore than a hint in this series, possibly as a trail into the anniversary special at the end of series 7. While I […]

@Bluesqueakpip –

The Doctor slowly becoming a mirror to Omega

I like this.  A lot. Foreshadowing, or perhaps just a subtle reference to how other people were coming to regard the doctor in a way not dissimilar […]

@fulcanelli, reading @timeloop ‘s quotes above just set me thinking, and then you made a similar point in the very next post…!  Something Clara saw in the Tardis (possibly the toy tardis, perhaps a raggidy […]

@Shazzbot – thanks!  But just realised I failed to use cogitated, so don’t think it will qualify as a great post!

Personally, I love much of what SM has done with the show, but do agree that we need to relate […]

Was thinking about the resolution of Time Crash, and wondering if – from a plotting point of view – this is why the dr is losing bits of his memory?  Presumably SM doesn’t want another resolution along the lines […]

@Bluesqueakpip, @ardaraith… we’ve also noticed there’s been lots of parent/child themes in Moffat’s reign.  As well as the examples you mention above, children either without parents or with substitute parental […]

Hi all

First post, used to comment occasionally on the Gruniad but generally got there too late, so had to content myself with reading your theories… hope I can assist with the bonkers theorising here a […]
