I think

she is definitely the Doctors because of regeneration, but i think its Rivers because of the connection they have.

Plus

i dont think the Doctor would do that to Rorie

yeah that would work as well...but she's part time lord it seems so its viable

Nm, worked it out

River called the Doctor her old man, possible family connection? If so then the child could be River's and still beTime Lord. Old man is used as a term for Husband and for Father.

When she said it Rory was standing behind her, I'm pretty sure it was implied that he is her father, which would imply that she is indeed the future child of Amy and Rory, and the future Wife of the Doctor and maybe the child is indeed Rivers and The Doctors.

I dont know if anyone else feels the same, but the fact they are making the series "darker", makes it a whole lot more interesting.

I have to agree!

Firstly, why are we using spoiler tags if we are not revealing anything that people who are up to date with Dr Who don't already know?

Secondly, how do i do the spoiler tag thing as I want to comment!! :woot:

I was just thinking for the american audience who wont see it until tonight/this weekend!

omg mind blown.......

Took me 2 minutes just to process what i had just seen.

Also love the use of "I Am The Doctor" theme throughout the episode.

haz you been converted! :p

Ok heres a thought! Will the little girl age after she has regenerated? I mean will she look like a teenager for example? Over the years the Doctors body has essentially become younger looking, so this might happen.

We won't know until we see who they cast :p

As the 9th Doctor said

It's a bit dodgy, this process, you never know what you're gonna end up with.

So it can go either way.

She knew she was going to regenerate, so I'm guessing that it wasn't her first time. Then again, it could be her first regeneration, she just knew about it. Interested to see what Moffat does with this story line.

That was my original thought, she knew what was coming. I think she'll be a girl just with a different face. Either way, it's an awesome storyline. Probably won't see her till the

cliffhanger storyline mid season

What bothers me is why would a Time Lord regress to such a young age through regeneration, they would be relatively vulnerable as a child. I think it would make more sense that they wouldnt regress any further back than when the age a person becomes an adult.

With that in mind and all the hints in the episode about Amys pregnancy i dont think she is Jenny.

Yeah, I just finished watching the episode. After seeing certain things [the photo in particular], it's probably not.

Though I thought I'd heard rumours a while back that Jenny will be making an appearance this serial?

well here's my theory of what's going on:

the little girl is the rani. and the tardis in the lodger is hers. she's the one who caused the tardis to explode creating the cracks in an attempt to kill the doctor. the silence, also being a threat to her plans, are forced into the cracks and end up on other planets. their society was falling. not being the nicest guys either, they displace the fish people to venice, and control humanity from the shadows, until one day in the 60s the rani shows up on earth, and the silence try to capture her. she disguises her tardis as a second floor flat, and turns herself in to a human child and goes into hiding in an orphanage. and thats where they found her and started building a tardis of their own. so now she's going to regenerate into a new fully grown body and the doctor will have to defeat her and stop the silence from doing to humans what they did to the fish people.

I'm starting to think that she maybe

The Rani

also. I think there are bunch of red herrings right now to get the fans to think she's the child of a TARDIS crew member(s), but there was a scene filmed that has

River Song dressed in the same camo outfit from The Time of Angles sitting down with Amy for some wine, and it's revealed that River is Amy's daughter.

*phew*

Was anyone else really annoyed by the fact that

The doctor now seems to be in favour of genocide, getting everyone to kill the silent, despite everything he has previously done

He basically warned them though, you don't really warn those you're about to kill, you just do it. So in a sense he's made it so they have to either packup or leave or go underground and never come out or they'll get shot etc. It's not the nice clean ending sure but then again this new season is darker and so on.

And that ending to ep2, wow, this has to be the best start to a season yet.

    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates by Sayan Sen Recently, Microsoft delivered its latest Defender patches for Windows 11 ISOs. These definitions are released from time to time alongside the general security updates available during Patch Tuesday. Speaking of Defender, the company has now announced another important change that affects how security updates are delivered to enterprise devices running Windows. According to a recent announcement, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's endpoint detection and response (EDR) updates will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update, bringing EDR servicing in line with several other Microsoft Defender components. If you recall, Microsoft last year moved PowerShell updates to Microsoft Update (MU) as well since it provides automatic updates for Microsoft products and services. Thus the move is intended to allow Microsoft to deliver EDR improvements and security enhancements independently of the OS's regular monthly update cycle; this should enable faster deployment of protection updates without requiring organizations to wait for the next Patch release. For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's EDR capabilities are designed to help organizations detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats across managed devices. Keeping these components updated is critical for maintaining protection against evolving attack techniques. The rollout has already began for Windows 10 devices in late May 2026 (last month) and Microsoft says it will gradually expand support to Windows 11 and the remaining supported Windows versions over the coming months. The company expects deployment across Windows 10 and Windows 11 to be completed by fall 2026 or around Q3 of this year. Once the transition is complete, EDR updates will be delivered through Microsoft Update using KB5005292, provided the required prerequisite updates have already been installed. Microsoft is also introducing a new Defender Update Service as part of the change. Following installation of the first update, devices will automatically create a new directory located at %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Microsoft Defender\Defender Update. Microsoft notes that restarts may occasionally be necessary in case of "rare" failure scenarios. For most organizations, the tech giant says no action will be required as long as Microsoft Update is already permitted within their update management strategy. Admins who rely on manually deployed update packages, however, will need to adjust their processes to ensure the new Defender update package is included. Microsoft also recommends reviewing internal documentation and notifying helpdesk and security operations teams about the updated delivery mechanism to avoid confusion during the transition. As a prerequisite, the tech giant notes that systems must be running Sense version 10.8798.25857.1000 or later and have one of the following Windows updates (or later) installed: Win11 24H2 KB5062660 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 23H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 22H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 22H2 KB5062649 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 1809 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2019 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2022 KB5063880 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2025 KB5063878 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) As always, organizations should verify that their update policies align with the new servicing approach before the broader rollout reaches all supported Windows platforms later this year. In case of major problems, the EDR update can be rolled back to the inbox version stored in %ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) using: MpCmdRun.exe -RevertMde -Product Edr -ToVersion Inbox For those who have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center portal, you can view the message here under ID MC1381119.
    • DWARF mini review: the world's smallest smart telescope for night and day sky captures

      By Case_f · Posted

      My problem with these smart scopes is that IMO they're not really an entrance into astronomy, they're an entrance to looking at pretty(ish) pictures that you take by essentially pressing a button and letting the scope do the work. I still maintain that getting some binoculars or a solid dedicated telescope (which doesn't have to mean expensive) and actually spending time learning the night sky and using a telescope is a much better way to actually learn. But, granted, the learning curve is a bit steeper (as it tends to be).

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      By Legend20 · Posted

      The perception of Microsoft Edge is unfortunate as it's a world class browser. I'm not exaggerating when I say it's the best browser I've ever used with its feature set, speed, reliability and advanced security. Running the extension Ublock Origin is a must though to deal with advertising and trackers.
