    First impressions of this episode, i enjoyed it but there was a lot i was’t sure of. I suspected the Doctor being the face behind it all pretty early on. Maybe that changed my perspective of things. On a second watch though got so much more out of the episode (As usual). First time we have seen this Doctor socialising properly, laughing, having a…[Read more]

    @Whisht   Nope. My forum name is not related to anything 200o AD. It comes from a long time ago in a galaxy far far away..plus..stuff.  Although  the ‘Errol’ reference is a bit spooky!.

    Scottish sig quote is to do with 1st ep of new series + i am scottish. Also, for the record (not that it matters). i am a she 😉

    Well i for one say we can go there! I am Scottish and I am British. I am very happy with the result today.  But I also recognise, so many other people are not. It’s difficult, there has been so much debate, so much division. Personally i do not think we need Independence at all, what we need is more powers for Scotland.

    And please, do NOT take…[Read more]

    @idiotsavon Ah, then the response to tell your boss that the ‘trousers of iron’ (oh hello, episode title?) are a fixed point in time and will be instrumental in the destruction of the entire human race unless YOU can save it. I then recommend waving your hands about in an enigmatic way while brandishing some sort of screwdriver with a coloured LED…[Read more]

    @idiotsavon  Of course we are over analysing and conferring meaning that isn’t there (or is there, who knows!). That’s not wasting life, that’s fun! 😉

    @janetteB thats a very interesting thought about the rescuing of someone…but I’d love to see the meeting of the management where that was the reason for the adding of the chair.  Bearing in mind this (if i remember correctly) seems to be the first venturing into time travel as a serious prospect by humans. And that would be – can you fire s…[Read more]

    I love the blackboards and the chalk 🙂

  • Spider replied to the topic Listen

    @Purofilion  very true. The rest of the ship design is not very cost cutting for one man in space!

    @ScaryB  Good point…although you build an experimental machine, actually would expect to lose it (its a huge risk), so you build it for 1…if it does come back then  you build a machine for 2.

    Hmmm…ok, so thinking about it more then I have ju…[Read more]

  • A little late to the party since cos I’ve just joined, but just for the record, fav other TV shows have to be:

    Sci fi type: Blake’s 7, Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica (both old and remake), DS9, Firefly, Space above and beyond.

    Others: A-team,  Blackadder, Bottom, Young ones, Fithy Rich and Catflap.

    No doubt I’ve missed something in that, but…[Read more]

    Although  a nice idea about Orson insisting on a second chair for his ship…it would never happen that way (him asking for another seat). The bean counters would never allow it in a design. You are sending one man to do a mission. You build him a one man  ship.  Everything else is just extra expense (this happens, with everything now, and I’m su…[Read more]

    It’s my first ‘theory’ post, please be gentle 🙂

    Something that got me that I can’t stop thinking about (other than the ENTIRE episode which just explodes my brain each time) and I don’t think has been discussed in detail here yet (although someone has mentioned something along these lines, i can’t remember who sorry – names, not my thing 😉 is…[Read more]

  • So, a while back I made a couple of Doctor Who music video things. Always meant to go back and do more but it never quite happened. Anyway, going to throw these two out there to see what you guys think. Both are 10th Doctor based and set to Amy Macdonald songs that just seemed right to me at the time.

    First one is Mr Rock ‘n’ Roll

    Second one Wish…[Read more]

    Wow. Just Wow!

    For me, that episode was  just great. I did not see the 2nd of it half coming at all. I thought it was a good, oh look, there’s the link with the Doctor, Clara and Danny and oh we are setting up something to come..and, then…the OTHER stuff happens.

    Yes, yes there are plot holes and what?!bits, and believe me I am one of the…[Read more]

    Hello all,

    My first post in an episode forum. So apologies if I don’t properly quote everyone who has made these points already. Just throwing my fez in the ring.

    Having read though some (but not all) of the posts seeing a lot of chat about Missy being the Master. To be honest IMO if she if going to be a Timelord…I think she’s the Rani. If its…[Read more]

    I am a proud to be Scottish. I am proud to be British. I will be voting no because I firmly believe we are better together. Not everyone thinks my way. I have no problem with that, it is up to everyone to make their own decision for their own reasons.

    Hello everyone!

    Have been having a great time reading through posts about the new episodes and thought it was about time I actually joined so I can stick my oar in too!  Some very interesting theories and comments floating about here!
