A decent episode but too padded out / slow for my tastes; I understand they were probably trying to go for the suspense angle but it wasn't really working for me. Too much talky, not enough action! But the next episode certainly looks exciting :D

Oh snap.

I dont know if its because of the gap between s5 and 6 or its because hes not following on directly from David Tennant but i really enjoyed that first episode. I even got my wish of Matt Smith

dying

.

Well, we know he'll be playing the Doctor

for the next 200 years.

;)

Good episode, won't really be complete without next weeks though, pity we didn't get that two episodes over one weekend thing, lol.

At first impression,

is the ship they found underground now the same one they found pretending to be the top of a building in the last series? which makes me wonder if the little girl/space suit is in fact a hologram of some sort seeing as we know Amy shoots it, but as far as I could see looks unaffected in the next episode.

As for the Doctor dying, the spacesuit could very well have been the little girl/hologram again which would explain why River also seemingly couldn't shoot it, I know some people will assume this is why she was in prison, but she would know if she shot him at this point.

My first random guess is that it is another version of the Doctor, maybe one that knew he had to die at some point, would possibly explain why he went off and did random stuff through history and came back so much older, clone? paradox of some sort so he knew he would have to die? and the best person to do that would be himself?

Ack, who knows, can't wait for next week. :D

I enjoyed it, though it did have it's problems. How many times did they use the "Doctor who?" line in this single episode? Way too many if you ask me. I was also a bit disappointed about the "They're Americans!" gag, playing on the cliche that we are all violent and trigger happy. I also wish they could have found someone who actually looked and sounded remotely like Nixon, but I suppose that's easier said than done.

I wonder why Amy found it so terribly important to tell the doctor that

she is pregant

? Seemed like an odd time to bring it up. I hope it doesn't turn out to be

the old "she's carrying an alien baby" routine or something crazy like that. In any case I can't see her really having one for some time because carrying a baby around the universe in a Tardis just doesn't seem like something a person would do.

Also River said she is "quite the screamer". :woot:

    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
    • You didn't like Mafia The Definite Edition? As a fan of the first when it came out, I liked that remake.
