Nope. Or why would River show up in The Matrix thingy? It'd be dozens of little dudes. This would have been both baffling and awesome if it had happened.

Time is relative to the point of view of the observer.

And also: just this once, just this once nobody cried.

I get the impression (particuarly from the season 5 DVD set notes) that he's been thinking about and refining his 'if I could write Doctor Who' since he was kid. It's what he always wanted to do and and I'm sure there's even more to all of this yet.

Good point. I was pretty burned out on the superstar Doctor thing. Now we can get back to sneaking around. It opens up more story possibilities and has to be a good thing. But will he have to use an alias?

I wish they'd just have an extra apisode in the main season. What the hell does Doctor Who have to do with Christmas? And why do one in eleven of his adventures happen on Christmas day?

Agreed on The Brig. I choked a tear. Here's why no mention at the time I thought! I was expecting a 'dedicated to Nicolas Courtney at the end…. but no. Seriously BBC, what the fuck? Moffat acknowledged it in story as much as he could in a major episode but the end credit stuff has to come from higher (I guess) and

Fenric plagued Rassilon with endless drumming to provoke him to plague The Master with endless drumming. And he bought Rose a bike when she was a little girl. He is also responsible for Torchwood. Entirely and in every sense.

Good thing George Lucas wasn't doing Doctor Who or Rose would've turned out to be the decendent of The Doctor and Elizabeth I and we'd have all had throw up in mouth moments.

I think The novels had Susan as the granddaughter of The Other from before genetic looms with the Doctor being a reborn version of The Other from later in Timelord history. It was pretty nuts.

Ian Mcniece's (is that his name?) version of Churchil was far more toned down and subtle here than before and much better for it. Made me smile.

Actually I look like that at the moment.

Largest ever. The Key To Time was just one season.

She knows she's in jail for killing the Doctor. She doesn't remember doing it but there she is and the Doctor won't answer her questions as she can't know till after the beach. I guess he seriously apologises for not thinking that through when he gives her the sonic screwdriver from Silence in The Library.

The original concept notes are on the official website. They mention children and mention either 13 or 14 year olds. Specifically it says that teens are the toughest critics and urges then not to do things they'll pick holes in. So it was really aimed more at teens rather than 10 year olds. The early stories are

Take that back Archmage! Elfman is nowhere near as bad as Murray Gold! I can only imagine that he's the nicest most lovable kind hearted man who has ever lived and no-one can face firing him.

The Flesh of flesh Amy was from a future time after humanity had been shown that it's avatars were alive. It's vaguely implied that they found a non-living way of doing it by the thousands of years later of Kovarian's time. The Doctor refers to an early stage of 'the technology' rather than 'the flesh'. I think the

It's not over yet. It's STILL Fenric. He destoyed The Tardis last year. And he WAS really behind Bad Wolf. Rose and Amy are Wolves of Fenric and he is totally coming back next year. Again.

Depends if you count The New Adventures novels. The post 2005 series has picked and chosen pretty freely.

He had to top David Tennant's 199 year long goodbyes in The End Of Time.
