Dr Who episodes!

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

There's a part of me that's thinking it might be - now in a new and improved Emperor kit.

I'm really hoping it's not Davros.

I think its the Supreme Intelligence, or maybe Kang. Or possibly Shockwave.

Yeah, i don't think it would make much sense for it to be Davros.

Altho it would be kind of nifty to see him. :)

So... this means all the Time Lords died for nothing eh?

Amazing example of managing to pull off single episodes and arc based plotting at the same time IMO>

Tried it but decided he didn't have the right to snuff an entire race out of existence, no matter how evil they might be, they deserved a chance and couldn't be judged on crimes they might or might not commit. Or something like that.

Anyway, the series is tremendous. Very very impressed indeed. Still want to know what bad wolf is :(

I was just looking for spoilers - bad me.

A bad wolf, a wolf in sheeps clothing - I would assume some sort of imposter working from the inside.

I hope its not a war of the worlds style virus?

Perhaps Rose is the Master? - funky

I think Mickey isn't done yet certainly...

Whatever bad wolf is I think it's going to be something very very big, clever and convoluted. Leastways I'd be very disappointed if it were all set up as a huge conspiracy just to introduce the master or something :( I want a big cunning plot damnit! :D

God i hope the twist isn't rubbish, it would spaff up the whole series.

Do we think Captain Jack is gonna get it?

I think he's quite fun. :)

Jack is very cool ^_^ I'm so pleased we live in an era where an openly bisexual character is actually portrayed in a likeable way on mainstream television at prime time!

I like it, but i think he should probably reference it every 5 seconds in a clumsey manner like Willow does to really pull it off. ;)

First theory carries the most weight for me.

"the wolf lurking outside our normal world, waiting to pounce at fatal weakness, consuming and destroying totally."

Pretty much sums up the Dalek army cloaked outside Earth, dunnit? Bad Wolf is the name of the company that owned the Gamestation, so the controller bird somehow sent hints back?

I dunno. My money's still on the TARDIS. It controls where the Doctor goes, translates things for him, and is a nifty "outside chronology" device that could perceivably be able to save the Daleks from throughout-time extermination. And, as they reminded us in a recent episode, it is sentient...

That or, as Paul said, Shockwave.
Grrr. Argh.

There's no spoilers on it.

There are loads of hitns being dropped here and there but I think the BBC are behind most of them just to confuse people! It wouldnt surprise me if they screen a fake episode to the TV critics on wednesday.

When I pointed this out to my sister she was REALLY surprised. She watches stuff but doesn't WATCH stuff. She's that one in the cinema p*ssing everyone off by saying "Who's he?" or "How did that happen?"

I think it's an evil Doctor (Eccleston) who saved the 'leks. He went evil in the future and then went back in time to save them. Then the real Doctor could show up, kill him and reclaim the Tardis. All ready for the next series and the as new Doc to replace that Eccleston fella.
Of course, that would imply the Beeb knew he was going to quit the series before they filmed the last ep. They may have time-travelled though, so it might be possible. :eyebrow:

The BBC knew Eccleston would be doing only one series. It got out to the public a bit early is all.

Sorry, I didn't consider lasting memories. How about he's split into two (a'la Farscape) and the good Doctor kills the evil Doctor, but is so badly injured he has to regenerate into whoever is playing the role in the next series. That way I can have my cake and eat it. Mmm... muffin.
