Doctor Who (Warning: End of Time spoilers from page 18)

It would be nice if, instead of having a big flashy show where they announce who the new Doctor is going to be, they actually keep it a surprise!

Although given they'll no doubt be busy filming next year's series, the BBC would probably find it very difficult to keep it hidden from the spoiler sleuths.

Which is why, if the Doctor is already part of the cast, nobody will leak it!

Well, we will know tomorrow after the Wimbledon final...

Aaaahhhhhh!!!!

Even though it is likely the name of the Doctor has been mentioned, the fact that no one name has been singled out yet remains impressive. Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Kris Marshall seem to be front runners, although a Tilda Swinton doctor would interest me a lot.

I still want Capaldi to remain though!

I still think Richard Ayoade would be an amzing Dr. Who.

Agreed. If it turns out to be Kris Marshall, I will feel a little bit underwhelmed. It's not a very exciting choice, is it? It's safe, bordering to overly cautious, and wouldn't really give the show anything new. Female doctor all the way.

Now we know!

[+] Spoiler: Jodie Whittaker, from Broadchurch

Not too surprising, as the new Who showrunner is also from Broadchurch.

I'm totally ok with that. Makes me excited to see where the next series will go!

Doctor doctor doctor! The great Christmas tradition of watching Doctor Who. Ah. I learnt two things from this episode:

Jodie Whittaker will kick ass, and gosh I do miss Clara.

Lots of spoilers in this, so i'll do the entire thing in spoiler tags.

I realised the opposite, i don't miss her
I'd have preferred them to have switched her role with Amy Pond, or even go back further and do Rose.

I was disappointed when Nardole appeared as one of the glass Testimonies, as it heavily suggests Nardole dies at the end of the 'World Enough and Time' / 'The Doctor Falls' episode set, I was really hoping Nardole would re-appear later on, but if he did indeed die during an off-screen ending of that, that somewhat makes it especially unlikely.

Michelle Gomez has also confirmed she won't be reappearing as The Master/Mistress for series 11 onwards. So i'm very fearful that they might have killed off too many characters in one go, and the next few series will be a little cold with all new characters, as Riversongs story appeared to come to a close at 'The Husbands of Riversong'. So that's a few of my favorite characters seemingly gone now.

Next episode will certainly be interesting to see how the new doctor recovers the TARDIS (or indeed if she does, it might end up a series wide plot to recover the TARDIS or something - it did seem to become heavily damaged towards the end)

No spoilery bit: Really good episode, good onscreen chemistry between the two actors playing the doctors. Really good episode to watch if you've not done so already.
