The name getting bandied around the most at the moment is Ben Daniels. And Smith was my all time favourite Doctor, but I really hope that it isn't going to be another white guy. There's so much misogyny amongst hard core fans for a woman Doctor though, it's so depressing.

I'm totally not crying. Not. At. All.

I've been watching Borgen since it started in the UK, and now I finally get who Laugesen reminded me of. It's been bugging me for years, so thanks.

Haha, well I think they must listen to fans a bit, since Moff eventually had to give an explanation for the Statue of Liberty Weeping Angel. You're right, they'll probably squeeze maximum dramatic potential out of it before revealing how he gets round the regenerations, but unfortunately I can see it being like the

It seems like they just did the Why Do You Let Me Stay video all over again, really. Also, whenever I look at Zooey now, I can only think of how she looks like a completely different (although obviously still very pretty) person without her fringe. http://www.buzzfeed.com/ash…

Ah, ok, sorry about that then. Even so, I think it's a bit silly of RTD to write a line that has quite a lot of significance for fans, put it in the episode, and then say "oh wait, it was a joke". Did River also give him her regenerations, meaning he now has hers, or was that just the regeneration power needed to

Yeah, I was annoyed at that. That's was kind of the whole point; the Doctor said he'd stolen her, and it turned out she was the one who stole him. Maybe she just flew off immediately after he'd gone inside though , this 'stealing him'?

I'm wondering how Clara saved the Doctor from the GI in Asylum of he Daleks? In The Snowmen we know how she saved him from the GI, but in Asylum the GI seemingly had nothing to do with it?

Exactly. Given that Moffat apparently had to give up his arcs/two parters because the BBC wanted him to, he's hardly going to just go and end the show because he wants to.

Well the Beeb apparently dropped the regeneration limit: http://www.guardian.co.uk/t… Also, I thought it was a limit imposed and enforced by the Time Lords, and since they're not there anymore, I guess it doesn't matter.

Yes, definitely. The thing I never got about River though, was why the Doctor actually liked/loved her. It wasn't really explained, it was just she told him that he did, so… he did? I don't know, I feel like aside from the smarm and the catchphrases, there isn't much to River's character. And I don't know why the 11th

Sorry, I mis-worded it. I meant in relation to how they conference called somebody who's dead and stuck inside a library computer. Also, when the Doctor said "I always see you", was he meaning metaphorically? Or has River been there before without Clara?

Yes, exactly. Amy, Rory, Doctor was perfect; he was their oldest friend and part of their family, and despite the wedding night jitters where Amy was unsure whether she wanted to be stuck in Leadworth, she always knew Rory was the one for her. I really, really don't want another companion romance. In fact, since Moff

I loved the way that the Doctor became a member of the Pond family, with him being their best and oldest friend. If you watch any behind the scenes stuff, you can tell they're all really good friends off set as well, they're always laughing and having private jokes and stuff. I do prefer the dynamic the Ponds have

But surely to have there as normal all the time just negates her tragic end in the Library? And thus her whole 'doomed' relationship with the Doctor would just fall flat. I'm wondering if it might be River's link with the TARDIS that's somehow allowing her to be there, as after all, she was conceived in there and it

I'm guessing that they were actually good guys, in a sense. Which doesn't really fit in with them randomly murdering people, but by trying to kill the Doctor earlier they were trying to stop the entire universe being extinguished at Trenzalore. Although their plan to blow up the TARDIS also nearly extinguished the

Really? Even that little bit when he broke down when Clara brought him tea? I think he's phenomenal, and that bit was absolutely demonstrated he's able to play it quiet and serious.

Fair enough, I just think that since he's a Time Lord he'd be able to remember things like that? But you're probably right, I think I'm just happier explaining it away by explaining it away with Clara solving GE meddling. Also, I could be wrong, but I thought it was our TARDIS she said had the faulty navigation system?

Yes! Although I love that Fez! And The God Complex is absolutely brilliant, I don't understand why people were so lukewarm about it…

Yeah, but I'm going to guess you're not a Time Lord, and also this is the girl who told him to steal the TARDIS, his most beloved possession/companion. I would've thought he'd remember her. Maybe it's just like I said, she had to do it because the GE had tried to stop him getting that TARDIS and thus the timeline was
