BEST Rumor All Week!!

This is out there on the internet but I am going to save you if you don't want possible spoilers by linking the article with this sentence, but the clues are here.

Sneek Peek Clip From The Name of The Doctor

I'm typing up my review for "Nightmare In Silver" now, but this clip was released today by the BBC from tomorrow's episode.

Also, Jenna-Louise did an interview with What's on TV. The answer to this question was most interesting to me.

When asked how she and Alex Kingston got along, Jenna had this to say, "I never want to give too much away, because if you know how they get along it gives you an inkling of where the story is going to go, but it's an interesting relationship. Clara is fascinated by and very curious about this woman who was married to The Doctor and who she knew nothing about at all. There's also a mutual respect, they're both women of The Doctor, in a way!"

New "Nightmare" Image, Preview and Possible 50th Spoiler **UPDATED W/Added Clip**

Wow, sorry, I'm probably going to be the last person to review "The Crimson Horror" but unless something unexpected happens it will be up this afternoon. Until then, I found this great new promo pic for "Nightmare in Silver"

And this is the new preview clip. Check out the Cyberman's moves at the end.

and read something I found interesting and not all that surprising. BUT this is something that definitely requires...

Blogtor Who is reporting that in an interview with the Eastern Daily Press, John hurt said some interestingly descriptive words for his character in the 50th anniversary special. He was cited as saying he was playing a "part of The Doctor" in a "kind of trinity" that includes David Tennant. If this is true, it could fall in line with either him being the true 9th Doctor or him being The Valeyard, last seen in "The Ultimate Foe". I am not familiar with more than the name of the paper this appeared in, so I take it as rumor as you should too at this point. But great food for thought!

Doctor Who Rumors, Quotes, and Theories

This week some interesting quotes came out about the finale (only 3 weeks away) Steven Moffat seems particularly pleased with his new monsters, The Whispermen, and if Jenna-Louise Coleman is to be believed they will be another Moffat classic. And I found what Jenna revealed about her character to be very intriguing, shedding some obscure light on the issue of who she may be. She said, "All I can say is that Clara hasn't just met The Doctor three times before..."

I already mentioned Steven Moffat's words on the finale and what may be revealed, but he also said this, "We'll also find out what makes his new companion so impossible and there's a surprise that no one has got right so far, and one that will change the course of Who forever!"

If you've read my previous posts you know I'm no fan of revealing The Doctor's name, but not once has Moffat said that this is what will happen. He has said the name of the episode, and said a secret will be revealed and of course it all sounds like what will happen, but when has Moffat ever operated that way?

As for Clara, this could somehow be tied up with the Library and River Song, since she is returning. I don't see how Clara could be River, or even the child of Rose and the metacrisis Doctor. With Jenna's new quote, I'm going with the theory I formed after "The Rings of Akhaten" and say that Clara is connected to Susan, The Doctor's granddaughter. Maybe something to do with Jenny from "The Doctor's Daughter" A friend of mine thinks she may be the TARDIS. But Moffat did ask Russel Davies to keep Jenny alive. Remember in "Hide" how strong the psychic link was because Hilla was the great x5 granddaughter of Emma, now apply the same logic to The Doctor and Clara. I just have a theory with no actual nuts and bolts of it all.

Concerning the finale, which is leading into the 50th anniversary, Steven Moffat said that no one had the surprise right so far. There are many theories out there and maybe he just hasn't heard the one I like the most. There are many thinking that John Hurt will be playing The Valeyard. Real quick, The Valeyard was an amalgamation of The Doctor's darker impulses in the future, if I remember right, somewhere between his 12th and final incarnations. I think I'll do a review of that entire season since it was under the umbrella title of "The Trial of a Time Lord"

There is an idea floating around out there that I do like. I know I saw it on io9 and Spoliertv, but I'm not sure where it originated, but they cite two independent "credible" sources. The idea is that John Hurt will play the REAL 9th Doctor, who has for some reason been suppressed or forgotten by the 3 most recent Doctors. The revelation would not be The Doctor's name, but that he is the 12th, not the 11th Doctor. Rumor or not, and most likely rumor, it's a fun idea. Think of the book from today's episode on the history of the time war. I posted a picture of it in a previous post. In "Rose", The Doctor appeared to look at his face for the first time, implying he had recently regenerated. What if he didn't regenerate from Paul McGann's Doctor, but another was in between who fought in the time war?

One more thing. From the filming pictures we have seen, it looks like David Tennant's hair is being styled they way it was in series 2, which would make sense with Rose coming back. So how will The Doctors link up I wonder.

Next a review of "Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS"

Doctor Who Roundup and Promo Images From "Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS"

First I want to give credit to the sites I get information, etc from, besides the Doctor Who Tumblr and Facebook pages. If you are on Facebook, you should "Like" the page "Doctor Who and the TARDIS by Craig Hurle" I know there are others I have yet to try but this one is great at giving not only breaking information but fun pictures and trivia. I've mentioned Combom, where I have gone for years. They have slowed down but do the best they can and provide some things none of the other do like live streaming links and downloads. I don't always go to the next two because I usually see their articles referenced at the ones I've mentioned, but Doctor Who at Den of Geek and Doctor Who News are great sources for news. I've linked the sites so you can just click on their names to find them.

I saw an interesting quote from Steven Moffat in the Radio Times in his description of the series finale, "The Name of The Doctor"

      "There's going to be a revelation. I'm not teasing. I'm not wrong-footing you. You're about to learn something about The Doctor that you never knew before. And I think you're in for a shock."

So I think (wishful thinking?) that it isn't his name we will learn. He's being very non-specific. River will be there so she can hear his name, which makes me wonder what Doctor Ten meant in "The Forest of the Dead" when he told River there was only one reason he would ever tell anyone, only one time he could.

Okay now the fun thing that happened today. New promo images for "Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS" which has something to do with a salvage crew trying to pick apart the TARDIS. Click to enlarge.

In the second one, behind them is a doorway like we are seeing in the TARDIS interior shots for the episode, so where in the world did this doorway take them?

What are these? They're in the TARDIS. Are the the salvage team after something awful happens? The trailer mentioned something living being kept in the TARDIS. 

The first one is an interesting mirror representation, but not mirror image because of where The Doctor and Clara are. The second one shows the TARDIS being brought in by the salvage team, at a guess, but what is that circular blue light outside?

I don;t know if the catwalk is in the TARDIS or not, but is that the TARDIS library? And what's wrong or in Clara's hand?

What are these hanging globe lights with Gallifreyan writing on them?? And best for last, look at this book. Is it The Doctor's? I'd love a peek.

3days 20hours 11minutes 26seconds until "Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS" !!!

Doctoristics

Being caught up on the new episode reviews has its' advantages. This is a great fourth Doctor quote i found the other day and in a little bit I'm going to post some of the promo images (and thoughts on them) for Saturday's "Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS".
