It was rumoured when the set photos were released, she had the same ring!

Jonathan Pryce played one of the best Masters.

Not sure who cast John Simm as the Master, he was just not suited for the role.  If the actror doesn't look or behave like Roger Delgado, they have no business being The Master

Dunno how I feel about this episode.  After today though I will be GLAD to see Clara gone as the Doctor's companion.  Doctor should have introduced her to the back of his hand.

 

 

who siad she is leaving besides rumors from awhile currently i dont  think it is confirmed she is leaving

Hmm

 

I'm hoping there is a good reason for what she is doing - maybe she needed this in order to support the energy required for her regeneration or something and has got carried away as usual.

 

She is quite aware of who are actual enemies are after her last appearance so hopefully there will be a want to bond with "her boyfriend" / the Doctor.

I am totally ok with what happened in the opening and my one regret is that they'll probably do some timey wimey crap and reverse it.

 

How is he a she, I thought that didn't happen.

...

Nah, it's been established that Time Lords can change gender when regenerating. Lets them mix up the character a bit and opens up the hiring pool too.

How did he (She) escape from Gallifrey though :o (End of Time) and why is she working with Cybermen ._.

That's what I asked back a page. Did End of Time still happen even after the events of Day of the Doctor (50th anniversary special)?

I took it as a "reboot" of that storyline. But the writers can't expect young kids and teens to get that (at least not right away) so they'd be stupid to just brush that aside like that. Now if Missy Master explains what happened to her after The End of Time, that's all good.

 

Still, Moffat seems quite happy to just abandon or at least put aside stories that RTD did during his tenure. The time locked time war etc for example :)

I was pretty unimpressed by that finale and really hope next season gets back to the classic formula. 

 

Given the nature of the show I don't think its the last of the master, could have been a teleport beam, we've seen disguised before or the galifrey data matrix was never shut off/destroyed, missy could have gone in there then and come out in a similar fashion to the kid at some point.  Or just bring her back without explaining anything...seems to work well.

My money is on it having to do with

Clara's new bracelet. Something similar to bringing Master back from the ring.

 

Also, with how the Cybermen came back, that means that

Amy and Rory were Cybermen for a bit.

Disappointing season. I'm loosing faith in this show now. 'Flatline' and 'Mummy On The Orient Express' were the best episodes in my opinion. I feel there isn't any continuity in the show now. They never explained how The Master/Mistress survived 'End of Time', how they came back and how she regenerated. Was there a hint she also has a TARDIS? They also never explained why the Doctor and Clara had to be together.. It was the worst finale to date, all about Clara and Danny yet again. Danny's speech leading the Cybermen to the cloud was cringe and they have all seemed to be upgraded to Iron Men..

 

Based on this seasons 'Listen' episode, I bet Clara is pregnant for the future version of Danny to appear. And that's probably what she wanted to tell him before he died (the first time round). 

 

I don't think Calpadi is a bad doctor, it's the story lines for me that does it. Season 5 was amazing, and season 6 wasn't too bad. From there, episodes have gone worse and worse. 

 

Then, then, that horrible mid credits scene with Santa.. I like Nick Frost but that was just horrific.

    • LibreOffice developer takes a dig at Euro-Office in new open letter

      By Ccl Ncc · Posted

      I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      Go on, I'll bite. How does windows (nice comment on an 'article' which doesn't actually involve it ) lock users out of their data then? Been using it since 3.1 back in 92 and not once have I been locked out of my data? Perhaps you mean Bitlocker? In which case the average user (who doesn't mess about) will have been forced to use a MSA, and in which case the recovery key would have been saved to said account..... If the user did happen to bodge around and not use an MSA then Bitlocker wouldn't have become live (as it cannot without a safe place to store the key) I want to point out Bitlocker and MSA are not connected and you can of course force it on without a safe place to store the key, but you do that with your eyes open. So your standard consumer who knows no better sets up an MSA, gets bitlocker and a recovery key stored off box, with a route to reset their password. All of this notwithstanding the fact, if your data is important, you back it up, no ifs, no buts, no-ones responsibility other than your own. Important data lives in at least two locations, one of which is offline and recovery is tested, otherwise that data wasn't really that important. Disks, fail, laptops get lost, phones end up down the toilet, tablets get stolen, if your only copy of data is on a single device you're doing it wrong.
    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri

      By excalpius · Posted

      Clearly that feature isn't for us. It's for the ad spam marketers so they can more directly target us about going to places we might want to go again...but without understanding context clues. Like for the flight someone took for a friend's funeral. We want to be reminded of that every time we open an app, a browser, or email, right? Right, Siri?
    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list

      Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off WWDC 2026 with a ton of announcements, mostly centered around Apple Intelligence improvements, the Siri AI, and Liquid Glass updates. However, there is a lot of other stuff that couldn't catch the limelight. Let's talk about watchOS 27 and which models are supported by the newest operating system. According to the Cupertino giant, watchOS 27 will be supported on the following Apple Watch models when it arrives later this year: Apple Watch Ultra 3 Apple Watch Series 11 Apple Watch SE 3 Apple Watch Series 10 Apple Watch Ultra 2 It's a stark contrast with last year's watchOS 26 update, which had almost a dozen Apple Watch models in its list of supported devices. Apple supported models all the way back to Apple Watch Series 6. That said, if you own one of the five models, you'll need an iPhone 11 (or later) with iOS 27 to install the latest update. Yes, Apple has shown some extra love to the iPhone 11, and it old horse supports the iOS 27 update. watchOS 27 beta 1 is now available for developers and interested power users through the Apple Developer Program. So, if you're among those who like to play with fire, you can download it to your supported Apple Watch. Otherwise, the public beta for watchOS 27 will be available next month. The freshly baked Apple Watch update comes with Siri AI - an advanced, fully conversational version of Siri powered by Apple Intelligence due for later this year. A new dynamic app grid features icons for five Siri-suggested apps. You can use a new tap gesture to open a widget in the Smart Stack, and a new Find My app finally clears the mess of Find Devices, Find Items, and Find People on Apple Watch. Workout Buddy can run without an iPhone nearby and offers new insights based on data, including your progress for pace, distance, and workout duration. Apple improved its motion tracking algorithms to measure the distance of indoor treadmill runs and walks more precisely. Speaking of other changes, the music playback on watchOS 27 starts faster and you can create custom passes for any membership or card that uses a QR code or barcode, then easily access them in the Wallet app or pin in the Smart Stack.

      "and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations" The Siri I've become to know and trust. I've always wanted to pull info on old flights. /s
