It was the last meeting with the Doctor in terms of his timeline not hers.

She in that episode mentioned their last evening looking out at the singing towers.

Google River Song timeline, its very very complicated.

It wasnt fantastic, but it was entertaining, and pretty much the only thing I've watched on TV over xmas as the rest of the schedules are dire.

Re: Doctor Who
 

Christmas Who isn't meant to be epic, it's meant to be a bit lighter, a bit sillier ... Actually pretty much what the entire output looked like in 1978 ...

Having said that, I thought the way they topped off River Song's storyline was lovely, and I had a lump in my throat when the Doctor said the night lasted 24 years.

Re: Doctor Who
 

Anyone got anything solid on there being no Doctor Who season this year? Is that a definite?

Re: Doctor Who
 

Yes, its not back as a series until Spring 2017. However, there will be a Christmas Special in 2016.

Re: Doctor Who
 

Then from 2018 there will be a new showrunner.

Re: Doctor Who
 

It's not quite as bad as it sounds. They are moving it out of Strictly season, because Strictly forces it to run too late on a Saturday evening. In moving it to the spring schedule, they had no option but to go for 2017. Spring 2016 is after all only about 6 weeks away.

That's reassuring, I thought for a moment we'd see it go full sherlock mode. Although I guess with Sherlock you have to give them sympathy knowing both main actors are pretty much A-list actors at this point and are bound to have full schedules unless booked years in advance. Both are currently working with Marvel.

Can't say I've massively enjoyed the ones he's done thus far. I do remember 'Countrycide' from Torchwood though, probably one of my most enjoyed ones.

Re: Doctor Who
 

The irregular and well spaced out scheduling of Sherlock is the entire reason they have managed to keep hold of such a stellar cast and production team.

Re: Doctor Who
 

I don't mind, I just hope it doesn't get stuck in limbo eventually. It's easily one of the best produced Television shows worldwide. The sheer quality of each episode is telling. This show is what got me back into giving more TV shows a try and so far I haven't looked back as it appears there's plenty of enjoyable productions out there again.

Re: Doctor Who
 

When I went on the tour I mentioned to the guides how jealous I was of their job. At the time I didn't pay much attention to their response but one of them did say it was going to be busier for them this year as "there won't be much filming going here". This was on the set of the TARDIS so I assumed they meant most of the filming would be away from it but given how it's been announced there won't be anything this year it's possible that's what they were referring to.
