I was a born a little too late for the classic episodes, but I remember when they used to show repeats on Watch. I recall an Egyptian-themed episode and then another one with the Mannequins. :think:

You should watch Genesis of the Daleks. That's one of the best ones ever

So was I :nono:

I wasn't suggesting you weren't!

You were not suggesting I were not?!?

****ing CHEEK :hmph:

:hmph:

Rob, I completely forgot about your book why didn't you remind me?

Because I shouldn't have to good buddy old friend old pal http://i.imgur.com/8KAD4SF.gif

Bookies Betway are reporting a new favourite in the frame to be named the next Doctor Who, with Phoebe Waller-Bridge plummeting from 20/1 to 2/1 in the past 24 hours.

I loved Fleabag but I think she'd be terrible

I wont judge until they are on screen.

Capaldi on paper was set to be the best yet but for me it just didnt work as well as i wanted

I think he's been wasted

The writing hasn't exactly been amazing

Maybe it is one of the reasons he left because the stories just were not there.

Its a shame he hasnt had one of those episodes that everyone will always remember

It was the other way around for me; I thought I'd dislike him more than I did. But then again I might be the only person in the world who thinks Matt Smith is better than David Tennant. :joker:.

Main problem with both of Capaldi's series, in my opinion, is that they were more The Clara Show than about The Doctor...

I wouldn't say he's really leaving prematurely, 3/4 seasons has been standard for the last 3 doctors... But then...

I think this is true and it's what makes it feel like he hasn't been around as long as Tennant or Smith. They had so many "big moments", a lot happened for them, whereas not a lot has happened for Capaldi so it doesn't feel like he's had a huge amount of time. The only really "big" episodes for me were the ones on Scarro and then the one where he spends billions of years punching through Diamond...... And both of those were sort of... Stupid. The living sewage dalek thing was ridiculous... And I don't even know where to start with the diamond punching.

What about the 2nd part of the Zygon story in series 9 with the anti war speech?

The new companion is Gay

Oh, I thought she was called Bill

:clap1:

Not Tumblr going into a shipping induced cardiac arrest if the next Doctor is a woman though.

Slay :clap1:

I'm all for removing any chance of "love stories' between the Doctor and the companion, so hopefully Bill stays on after Capaldi leaves.

Capaldi to lure Bill to the dick?

FFS

I've written about Doctor Who and its lack of gay representation but I can't include Bill because the episode airs after my dissertation is due and I have nothing to cite from

I'm gonna (virtually, I don't want to be arrested) stab Steven Moffat

I expect church groups will be condemning this erosion of morals and denouncing this, instructing Christians not to watch Doctor Who

I also expect some church people to say it is now banned from their household because of this homosexual character :bored:

What does your Crystal Ball say about me x

Sorry, I don't have such an item

I would be excommunicated if I did as they are seen by some groups as Satanic items of divination

With these people you just can't win

Capaldi would never. Clara wanted it sooo bad and he was too classy to go there.

He was like "Yes I punched through a diamond wall for 12 billion years for you but no you still cannot touch my Danny Pink you moon faced hussy".

He has a duty of care :nono:.

I think you're confusing all churches with the Westboro Baptist Church

You have never been to certain parts of Scotland then and some of the Wee Frees...

If there wasn't an uproar about Captain Jack then there won't be about Bill.

:joker:

Tut tut. Steven Moffat and his lesbian agenda.

Tbf Sticks is probably right. Mind you, I'm sure the types of houses that would ban their kids from watching have already banned them because of the sci fi element suggesting that God isn't a thing.

They usually steer clear but I actually noticed that Capaldi's Doctor on more than one occasion was quite blatantly flippant about the legitimacy of organised religion :joker:.

They also already have a lesbian relationship... That victorian lizard woman who sexually abuses her maid.

A... Lizbian. If you will.

Ugh honestly I can't wait for this series to be over and for the new producer and doctor to start. The show really is a shadow of its former self. Also why are they making such a huge deal of Bill being a lesbian when they've had gay characters and companions since literally 2005

...they're not making a big deal of her being gay, that's the whole point. We'd have found out some other way than in an interview two weeks before the premiere if they were making a big deal out of it

I meant the media, not the show

Even if season 10 is good, that will only be 2 out of 6 seasons by Moffat that weren't awful

The hilarious thing is that got complaints purely because of the lesbian aspect. They were fine with the idea of multspecies, a human and a lizard but outraged at two women kissing.
