• @PhileasF and @have you fed the fish

    I think there is several pieces of evidence that the doctor may have gone through these events several times. Firstly how would the doctor know where to go get rid of the […]

  • @phileasF I think the Tom Tom bit was just a gag & ATMOS ref but you got me thinking…

    Does the Doctor still have that spoonhead he was tinkering with in BoSJ? Could he have been using this as a Doctor Double […]

  • @PhileasF        I think the ‘Doctor’s origin story is that he originates from the story’ could work

    Yes, no doubt. Possibly will.

    But in an “in-story” way – with his friends, companions, the TARDIS etc – […]

  • @PhileasF & @Bobbyfat

    Yes, the story motif is strong in the run. I think SMs run, when it is available to view in full retrospect, will be quite telling. It seems so far to be about the power of the story in […]

  • @PhileasF

    Seriously….if this happens:

    The common thread here is that something imaginary (or apparently imaginary) becomes real. So, how’s this for a 50th anniversary story: the BBC makes a great TV show […]

  • @PhileasF

    River’s definitely post Time War (spent 3 hours and many braincells sorting that out!) so she can’t go back there. (not to say she couldn’t study it retrospectively of course, but difficult to get […]

  • @PhileasF    I think the woman in the shop will be either River or Rose – and it is, as you say, most likely a paradox that will be resolved in the finale by whoever going to the shop finding Clara and giving her […]

  • @PhileasF Now Smithy in drag I would very much like to see 🙂

    Yes, I’m going with Clara as a Pond and the Doctor’s grand-daughter or great-granddaughter, who is also a temporary repository for his memories […]

  • Hey everyone, if you want @Dr-Clara ‘s name to go “live” it needs a dash between Dr and Clara…

    @PhileasF I LOVE the idea that the whole thing was a set-up by dark-dark Doctor.

    AND this ties in exactly with […]

  • @PhileasF that is certainly an epic! Some good points though.  Leaky Timelock etc

    Re Clara in the Library tho – She says to the Dr at the end “You have a name, I’ve seen it, in one corner of that tiny–’” That […]

  • @phileasf – I think moffatt has be nursing this gameplan for 20 odd years, and has refined it with RTD; it’s inevitable that there are roots right back in Rose (even if not, they can make callbacks that seem that […]

  • @PhileasF Very impressive, love it! Especially the music “at the heart of the asylum”, wells etc refs

    Re dreams – Agree that it can’t “all have been a dream” (cue  explosions of incensed fandom LOL) but I still […]

  • @PhileasF. Your idea about the Daleks hacking the Doc right back would.work very well as an explanation for Clara – she’s a Dalek construct trying to infiltrate the Doc. Maybe the first two Clara’s were early […]

  • @PhileasF

    Great post on AotD. Lots to mull over.

    I think it was my post – regarding the direction when Oswin first realised she was a Dalek.

    I’ve said elsewhere that Moffat tends to set things up in the […]

  • @PhileasF and @ardaraith – he’s definitely acting out of character, isn’t he?

    I like the Dalekisation theory because it’s a great explanation of why the Doctor’s been acting steadily more out of character (and […]

  • @PhileasF  not finished with your list yet, but when you mentioned milk….The Doctor poured himself, and then drank without spitting, a glass of whiskey in Snowmen (dont think it was Brandy??) Clara makes a […]

  • HaveYouFedTheFish replied to the topic S33 (7) 10 – Hide

    @PhileasF – totally agree, see my earlier post about the same scene. Watch carefully Clara’s expression as the doc says “love story”. That is suddenly one very knowing and happy smile that you don’t often see […]

  • HaveYouFedTheFish replied to the topic S33 (7) 10 – Hide

    @phileasf – 100% agree! Although I’m not sure about the dream lord, but I think the idea that the doctor is starting to persecute (the thin end of the wedge being he’s being less than honest with her as Emma could […]

  • ScaryB replied to the topic S33 (7) 10 – Hide

    @PhileasF Lovely post re Carlyle; it’s a tough life being a writer! Great quotes too.

    haha – welcome the world of bonkers theorising, seeing clues everywhere. Gets us all in the end.

    And I like your #712B […]

  • janetteB replied to the topic S33 (7) 9 – Cold War

    I am warming to the dalekisation of the Dr too. @PhileasF put forward a very convincing case for it. I do not entirely believe Clara’s back story. Maybe he dreamed that hence the similiarity between the car that […]
