Control Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 "utopia" comes to mind: not a great episode, but the final act was great. "Utopia" seemed like it was going to set up something awesome, and it didn't, so hopefully the follow through is better this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cool arrow Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Does this mean that the ill-advised line from the movie regarding the Doctor's parentage is now canon? And if so, WHO THE FUCK IS THE WOMAN IN THE END OF TIME? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted November 29, 2015 Author Share Posted November 29, 2015 i think theres a better chance it could be related to Doctor/Donna version than him being half human. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raziel Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 That's got my money, since she's in the finale. I'm guessing the regenerating Time Lord is either Missy or Rassilion. I always thought the "See no evil" woman in End of Time was a regened Romana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doubting El Dandy Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Since The Doctor was constantly recompiling a version of himself from when he arrived the first time he is no older than he was in Face The Raven. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought the "See no evil" woman in End of Time was a regened Romana. This is from Wikipedia and the link is broken, so grain of salt and all that, but anyway... Russell T. Davies wrote in an email to the author of The Writers Tale, "I like leaving it open, because then you can imagine what you want. I think the fans will say it's Romana. Or even the Rani. Some might say that it's Susan's mother, I suppose. But of course it's meant to be the Doctor's mother."[11] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought the "See no evil" woman in End of Time was a regened Romana. I wouldnt think they regenrate the Master, since she has apparently been so popular a character. I continue to hold out hope its Romana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Since The Doctor was constantly recompiling a version of himself from when he arrived the first time he is no older than he was in Face The Raven. Well he'd be a couple days older, but I see your point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Control Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Peter Capaldi is awesome. Don't think that this episode would have worked as well with anyone else. (Well, definitely not Matt Smith. And I like Matt Smith) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Well, definitely not Matt Smith. And I like Matt Smith) It would be an interesting thought experiment to imagine the episode with Tom or Pertwee or Eccleston.

TheVileOne Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 The whole Hybrid thing, I guess it doesn't necessarily have to be referring to that line from the 1996 TV movie. But how funny would it be if Moffat re-established this Doctor as half-human? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
