Did anyone see Capaldi on Graham Norton last night? He basically spoilered tonight's episode MASSIVELY.

Stupid Scottish c**t.

No, didn't personally see it but there's a bit in the mail on line about it, and a bit about Jemma's replacement. Sorry no link.

Quite possibly the worst Dr Who episode I have ever seen - and I started watching in the 1960's!!

Complete and utter garbage. How does crap like this even get broadcast?

Be fair. It didn't have Bertie Bassett, Ken Dodd, Nicholas Parsons or Bonnie Langford in it - so it can't have been the *worst* (unless you stopped watching in around 1984).

Strangely enough, I did!! I wasn't a fan of either the Peter Davidson or Sylvester McCoy Dr Who's

FTFY (1 - Doctor Who is the name of the programme, not the character. 2 - 'Doctor' is never abbreviated in the title. 3 - apostrophe!)

4 - The plural would be "Doctors Who" anyway.

As in 'the doctors who appeared in the programme' presumably.

Oh God, only another five hours and it's on again. I do hope tonight's epidose is better than the previous ones. It's not as if that would be difficult is it?

The computer WOTAN referred to the First Doctor as Doctor Who. (TV: The War Machines): "Doctor Who is required. Bring him here!"
The Second Doctor briefly used the name Doktor von Wer (literally 'Doctor [of] Who') during his visit to Scotland on 16 April 1746.(TV: The Highlanders)
The Second Doctor once signed a message as "Dr W." (TV: The Underwater Menace)

End credits from William Hartnell's first series to Tom Baker's last, and also Christopher Eccleston's series, list the character as either Dr Who or Doctor Who. Also, the end credits of "The Parting of the Ways" say "and introducing David Tennant as Doctor Who"

Right. Time to try and get these worms back in the can...

My god, I've stumbled into an anorak convention!!!

Why do I keep thinking Neverwhere?

[Butter Face]

I'm quite enjoying this one.

[Butter Face]

Yup. Liked that a lot.

[Flip Martian]

Apart from the elongated "ok, I'm going to die but let me just milk it for all its worth first and oh isn't it strange the bird thing seems to have got lost and given me more time than I should have" bit at the end, I was quite enjoying that.

No Viking helmet has ever been found with horns. It's part of the Victorian fantasy.

I know. But fantasy is the whole point.

Low grade fanfic writing again.

It's jumped the Drashig.

For the last ten minutes, I thought that either Clara will end up in the 'stasis pod' and the raven will think she is dead and that is how she is saved, or she ends up wearing the teleport bracelet. All I can say is that the raven took a very long time flying down a very short street. I'll miss Clara

[anonymous-user]

I thought Claras breasts though completely covered were a welcome addition to the plot tonight

[Beefmeister]

I think I might be on my period as I was blubbing at the end!

Will really miss Clara, she was brilliant.

They looked quite spectacular

“The Doctor: [aiming gun at the ceiling] Didn't anyone ever tell you? There's one thing you never put in a trap if you're smart. If you value your continued existence, if you have any plans about seeing tomorrow, there's one thing you never, ever put in a trap.

I suspect that street and Ashildir now have a limited lifespan. Personally I believe Clara will return. After all She is scattered all along every Doctors timeline.
