Rappy Who? :P

[drlacus]

That ending :D lol

[Arachno 1D]

Maybe they should retake their test on each regeneration

[Ambroos]

So. Which of you cried too? Started with the poem for me and then got progressively worse right 'till the end. That surprise appearance pretty much turned me into a complete emotional wreck / pile of tears :p

 

(I am so glad we get BBC HD here in Belgium!)

I really teared up when that person appeared and Matt was giving his last speech!

Erm what? Will there be a part two to finish up this story line. I know most doctor who episodes end with plot holes but this was worse than most. Overall the ending got a poor reception in my house.

What plot holes, from what I understood it resolved everything from Matt Smiths time as the Doctor.

[PsYcHoKiLLa]

Well, I thought it was absolute rubbish. Who has gotten progressively more cheap looking and more nonsensical under Moffat's tutelage.

 

Tonight's episode was a good example of this, lots of flowery language that ultimately makes no sense, plots that went absolutely nowhere and the damn daleks again, is it possible for Moffat to write an episode now where the daleks don't make an appearance?

 

I can't wait for Moffat to leave and someone else with more imagination to take over because Moffat is just churning over the same stories now.

[Rappy Veteran]

Same building...running out of locations :p

[Ambroos]

I thought those buildings looked familiar :p

 

It was a nice episode, but in general I've liked the last few years of Who a bit less than 9 and 10's. Those storylines were both more complex and simpler at the same times. Less easy fixes and better reasons/explanations for things. But it hasn't been bad, I still love it.

[LittleNeutrino Veteran]

i do not want to sound to critical however, i honestly thought the episode was rather boring. and Moffet kept promising to close story loops and not really much of anything happened in the episode.

[jakem1]

The actual regeneration looked really good.  I hope they take the show in a new direction with Peter Capaldi because they do tend to rehash the same storylines over and over again.  I also hope his Doctor is a bit more serious and a little less frenetic than all the other portayals have been since the reboot.  Something more like Jon Pertwee's Doctor would be great.  A character with a bit more depth.

Really sad to see Matt Smith leave. He was the Doctor in my eyes (along with Tennant) and Baker!

One word. Naff.

 

Not impressed. 

[Boo Berry]

But times change, and so must I.

Do the time lords have the ability to open and close the cracks at will? Have they given up trying to re-enter this universe? What about the remaining Daleks around Christmas? Only one ship blew up on screen? What about the desolated planet the Doctor met the great intelligence at in the future?

[Rappy Veteran]

But times change, and so must I.

:(

[Boo Berry]

Yeah, I had the same reaction too. His pre-regeneration speech was... sad. :(

[LittleNeutrino Veteran]

i am not afraid to admit My wife and I both cried at the end of this episode.
