The Doctor Who thread

...pretty much just him walking around talking to himself,

Walking and talking describes most of the current season. The occasional speech punctuates the climax of each episode and I appreciate how an older Capaldi adds much needed gravitas to the character but I miss the action. I miss the mania of Eccleston and alien chases.

Tedious. That's pretty much the word I'd use to sum up this rather lacklustre season of Doctor Who. I find myself watching each new ep out of obligation rather than anticipation now.

The finale was great. Watched it twice today, iview when I got up and on TV tonight. Few more things noticed on a second viewing. Happy with the conclusion although its a bit sad, like how it played with expectations a lot. Weekest part was not naming a certain character earlier on but that was something else not too bad on second viewing. Also backed up my thought a few weeks ago about not taking everything you see as conclusive when theres more eps to go! The rumour I most liked seemed not to be true after all but I can see how the season was building up to a certain conclusion. Wouldn't mind more stand alone eps next season.

Fast forwarding parts of last week's episode? Thought it was great to see the shjow do something different. Although it reminded me a bit of the game ICO in parts.

The finale was excellent. That gravitas I mentioned earlier was here in full force.
Was there a preview of the Christmas Special afterwards? I think I missed it.

Yes, after the credits. But there should be 2 repeats this week for u to just record the end.

I've been watching it on ABC's iView.
