Doctor Who - Series 8 Thread.

Loved the theme tune, didn't like the new episode very much. Although that being said I wasn't a fan of 10 and 11's first episodes either.

Doctor Who is about time-travel. Clocks are perfectly acceptable to use since they tell the time. I think its nice to have something different instead of the vortex theme. Plus its created by a fan of Doctor Who so its not gonna be brilliant but its very good.

I'm sure the bbc created it and the guy just helped they would want it to look as brilliant as possible. It's good I just think it would be good to have a mixture of the time and space but the time thing takes more screentime

boring tbh. feels so much more like a children's show again and while the recurring characters have their amusing moments they don't really belong in the show full time.

hasn't she always had a thing for him lol

A children show? I think you'll need to keep watching. Moffat wants the doctor to be a lot more mature as he found the comedy elements 11 had got a bit too stupid and childish. Although nothing compares to rtd's period

I think he kinda has a point. When I was younger, Doctor Who was absolutely thrilling. I remember being too scared to sleep after watching The Satan Pit! That just doesn't happen anymore. It's disappointing 'cause I'm past the age where I no longer believe that it might really be true so it's just not as scary as it used to be. And being scared is half the fun IMO
But that's not really Doctor Who's fault, it's just growing up.

Does anyone know if the plan is to bring back Gallifrey this series? While I do love arcs I really cba with another big massive arc right across multiple series

Not this series.

The original plan was Gallifrey would of been back this series if Matt stayed one more year as The Doctor. So it was back before the new doctor. With it being Capaldis first they'll keep it simple with the whole Gate Keeper plot arc and the promised land.

I also miss the vortex style intros. I like the clocks its cool,

Dam I was sure I'd read it wasn't gonna hang around like previous arcs. Maybe they'll leave us with a big game changer at the end and leave us on a cliff hanger. I just don't fancy another arc like the silence. The arcs are better than RTDs but they go on for so long they get lost and end up being anticlimactic for me

Quite a good episode. Another part with the heaven thing which seems to be where all the people that died at the hands of the doctor go.

Me: Don't be a lasagna!
