2. His future tomb at Trenzalore has now been averted? So Clara never did jump into his timestream but then again, if she didn’t then neither did The Great Intelligence so maybe one cancels the other out?
I think she jumped. Again it’s a consequence of the more dynamic view of time flow that Moffat has presented. Everything in it has…[Read more]

@Miapatrick To me there was a particular chaos about this Doctor which fits well with this. Yes, I like this characterization. He had a very explosive personality, didn’t he, lots of spinning around and waving of arms.

@Scatamonky – I’m not sure it’s going to matter how old the Doctor is now. The ‘I’m always going to remember being me’ speech had the feel of one of Eleven’s ‘this is the safest planet I know’ lines. Some sentences he should just stay away from. 🙂
We’ll have to see – but I’m one of the people who’ve been saying ‘reboot’ for a while. I think…[Read more]

@Scatamonky I like your summing up. That makes sense to me.
@DanMartinUK has a new article on Buzzfeed – some great gifs and screengrabs, and a few things I missed. (I’m still not convinced about definitely seeing Hurt regenerate into Eccleston tho)

“So Tardises seem almost common, everone’s got one…”
@Scatamonky – but not everyone who gets one travels in it, constantly, for thousands of years, like the doctor! recall, his journeys through space and time were damaging enough to endanger all of time and space…
and, those other tardises probably didn’t develop sentience (again, over…[Read more]

@Scatamonky – i’ve been obsessing over the whole “we die at trenzalore” thing, too, as matt told david in ‘tDotD.’ the timey-wimey-ness of ‘the name of the doctor’ has really put a bend in my brain!
my only way of understanding it (until it’s made more explicit, hopefully in the upcoming xmas special), is that matt’s doctor was the final one, so…[Read more]

@Scatamonky – this is why I’m sort of in favour of the ‘two timestreams’ theory. It might also be why Moffat’s being a bit cagey over whether saving Gallifrey always happened, or the Doctor just altered his own personal past.
I think the reason Clara didn’t see Capaldi was that – until the Doctor changed his mind – the Capaldi Doctor didn’t…[Read more]
