Re: Doctor Who : Season 8
I thought that it was one of the better Christmas specials.
But shouldn't Clara be pregnant by now, given the Danny-lookalike time-travelling descendent they met earlier in the series?

I can't remember exactly but am sure it was confirmed by a member of the production team and explained.

Re: Doctor Who : Season 8
So, basically Alien meets Inception- all it needed to be totally derivative was for Santa to say "come with me if you want to live " whe he did the drive-by pick up.....

Re: Doctor Who : Season 8
Dr Who has often been derivative..Like when there were mummies involved many,many years ago..The Pyramids of Mars if I'm remembering correctly..with Tom Baker who is still my favourite Doctor.

Re: Doctor Who : Season 8
So Clara didnt leave then, was that all just a rumour, or did I miss something.

Re: Doctor Who : Season 8
Just seen Dr Who, it defintely was Alien meets Inception.
I'm glad Clara appears to be staying.

My thoughts exactly.
Though I think the story would have been better had they not felt obliged to Christmas-theme it.

Re: Doctor Who
Amazed no thread for the new series.
My opinion.....Moffat has disappeared up his own backside.

Re: Doctor Who
Didn't watch many episodes last season and can't see myself doing so this season.
I am not sure why, I think it's just fatigue and a lack of originality. Unless it's changed the show seems rather formulaic at this point and trending more to being light family entertainment rather than trying to do something new.

Re: Doctor Who
It's always been family entertainment.
I personally loved it. Capaldi was brilliant as always.
It's a great story and actually ties in to Genesis of the Daleks one of the best stories ever and doesn't just mention classic who for the hell of it.
Gave me a proper classic Who feeling. Loving that there are lots of multi part stories this time too.

Re: Doctor Who
I thought it was ok, no better or worse than before although they seemed to have turned down the volume on Clara's annoyingness. I'm starting to warm to Capaldi a bit as well too. Interesting to see how the next few episodes pan out.

Re: Doctor Who
It was ok.
I hate when they keep randomly changing things for no reason.
Dalek guns have never disintigrated people, just killed them, so why change that.

Re: Doctor Who
They haven't changed it. They aren't dead just teleported. Thought that was obvious.
