the "ever-faithful child of time" that Dalek Caan was referring to was himself
Ooh. That could be! Nifty idea.
Yeah... That went well.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I want Jenny to show up and Donna to go into crisis, and remember everything. Once she gets cured, she gets to tear the Doctor a new one.

I love that her grandfather is so kind to the Doctor here. I hope this isn't the last we see of Donna or Granddad.
I really want Wilf to be the Doctor's new companion. An old man companion would be awesome!

Does anyone know if the promo for the Christmas special that aired with the UK final is up on youtube yet? I was disappointed to not see it here.

And the Doctor says "Doesn't need saying.", right? As opposed to the waffling "Does it need saying?"
Because I've seen a lot of the latter in posts here and there, but I keep hearing the former, which I like better. Because it's a stand, a firm declarative statement. He's not asking her, he's telling her.
Sail, the brogue seems to subtley start with "You've got to" in response to Rose's whinging about not beig going back to the parrallel universe after trying so hard to find him, and kicks into full gear with "We've saved the universe, but at a cost, and the cost is him" and reappears briefly when he says "born in battle".
I mean, I'd marry a fat, mysoginistic, abusive man so long as he had red hair and spoke with a brogue, but it's just not the Doctor's voice! Granted, his slip of the accent is probably due to that scene being filmed with the failing light and rising tide.

I guess in the end what I hated about this ep was necessary in order for what I loved about it to happen. And perhaps vice versa (like, I wouldn't have gotten all the companions piloting the TARDIS if they hadn't all been involved, deadweight or not. Well, except Jackie. Really, her entire presence amounted to the butt-end of a mean joke? "No. Just, no."?!) There's no easy fix without starting from scratch.

This is the entire teaser trailer but it looks like there is something with more.

"born in battle".
Aha! I caught it in the "born". The brogue almost got away with him completely on that word.
"Does it need saying?"
That's what I heard. And what he had to say. If he'd said the other, then he may as well have stayed, and he couldn't.
