    I still wonder why Me was dressed very much like the 80’s/90’s version of Clara’s mother in the selfie Clara took. There’s been no resolution to that yet .

  • Starla replied to the topic Heaven Sent

    Holy moly! That was really awesome. I cottoned on to the skulls being the Doctor’s when he came across his wet clothes drying by the fireplace, and immediately thought he was stuck in a loop. Great concept, and what an ending to leave us with!

    <p style=”text-align: left;”>@lewis97 Wow! What a trouserific effort! I googled some pics last night, but as i am on my phone i found it difficult to collate anything. Still not sure of the meaning/relevance but it’s very interesting nonetheless.</p>

  • Starla replied to the topic Face The Raven

    @nerys @drben – re. the quantum shade; I, like yourselves, interpreted that it could only be passed on once, to a willing party. Once done, the ability of the shade giver (in this case Ashildr) to revoke the curse was null and void. Clara’s fate was set.

    @whisht “…that the lamps make you see what you think you ought to see.”

    Can the lamps make one see a death that they believe they ought to be seeing? I.e. The Doctor expects to see Clara die, therefore he sees her die… she’s facing away from him, he doesn’t see the light as the raven enters her body… okay, it’s late and I’m probably making…[Read more]

    I haven’t read all the posts sorry (will do but my little boys are about and need their Mummy). I had a thought re. the regeneration energy Clara absorbed during the dalek ‘upgrade’ or whatever you want to call it in ep 2. Firstly, checking with you lot that she was in the dalek and did potentially absorb it? If so, my theory is that the little…[Read more]

    I too noticed the Tardis viewpoint when Clara is trying to unlock the door.  I thought maybe it could have just been a ‘dust speck’ p.o.v, but I think maybe it was in colour, so perhaps not then? Need a rewatch.

    @phaseshift

    Sorry, I must have missed the part where he stated that the signal was embedded at the end, I thought it was embedded throughout the whole video. Hence my confusion as to whether the Doctor and co. just left, now infected with this thing. Which I would find odd.

    So what were the creatures? Were they created from a signal too, and not…[Read more]

  • Starla replied to the topic Sleep No More

    They all watched the footage.  Am I right in saying it’s watching the video that infects you? Did they have to have been inside a Morpheus machine to become infected? Is there potential for these sandmen to reappear in future?  I couldn’t tell whether the Doctor had actually stopped the transmission of the video,  or whether at the end there th…[Read more]

  • Starla replied to the topic The Zygon Inversion

    Firstly, sorry if I came across at all trolly… I don’t really want to nitpick the show to death. I was just ruminating on some other people’s posts and thought I’d share my own views. I am very capable of filling in the blanks storyline wise, and don’t need things spelled out to me.  I assumed the same things you guys did, especially on my…[Read more]

  • Starla replied to the topic The Zygon Invasion

    Info from the bbcamerica/anglophenia site – Dr Funkenstein comes from a 1973 album titled The Clones of Dr Funkenstein.  So, if the Doctor is Dr Funkenstein, who are his clones? I’m sure someone else has already picked up on this. It just makes me think he has a plan, and it involves willing zygons duplicating key players.

  • Starla replied to the topic The Zygon Invasion

    @JimTheFish  does anyone think that we’re being double-bluffed here and that the Doctor is also a Zygon — a decoy provided by the human-friendly faction — to lure out Bonnie Zygon. It just strikes me that he was rather passive in the whole missile sequence and the ‘try not to kill too many’ was a rather sign-postedly un-Doctor-ish line.[Read more]

    Rewatch – “I take particular note of anyone’s weaknesses”… whoops!!

    Still, the fact that she remembers Clara, and not only that but views her as a possible weakness in the Doctor, makes me think someone  (e.g. Missy) has been in her ear.

  • Starla replied to the topic The Woman Who Lived

    Quick thought… when Me/Ashildr and the Doctor are hiding in the chimney, he mentions Clara. She says (in what I interpreted as a mildly derogatory tone of voice) something along the lines of “oh, she’s still with you is she?”. He queries if she remembers Clara, and then Me/Ashildr says something like “Yes, ine always remembers…[Read more]

  • Starla replied to the topic The Woman Who Lived

    @mirime – Interesting that you bring up anachronisms. There’s been a few… electric eels, horns on helmets also come to mind. I would love to rewatch to see what Missy said exactly about this topic!

    <p style=”text-align: left;”>Reference to Captain Jack Harkness… !!!!! (I’d love him to pop up again in future).  I also agree with @bluesqueakpip and @phaseshift that at least one of the possible people Ashildr has met that may have told her about the Doctor is probably Missy.</p>

    @whisht Thanks! ☺

  • Starla replied to the topic The Girl Who Died

    Addition to my post… we know the Doctor can project a hologram on to someone, quote from Tardis wikia in relation to The Time of the Doctor: “When the Papal Mainframe arrived, the Doctor made Clara swallow a holographic projector to generate holographic clothes around her, as it was considered very courteous for visitors to appear naked.”

  • Starla replied to the topic The Girl Who Died

    Sorry, haven’t read all the posts. Just had a thought about the “run, you clever boy, and remember”… if precognition is really “remebering things backwards”,  maybe what the Doctor needs to remember is in the future, not the past. I’m sure someone has probs thought of this/posted this.
