[QUOTE=Freeze;42962553][sp]How did all the Doctors know to start working on the calculation and to help freeze Gallifrey?[/sp][/QUOTE] [sp]The Doctors probably sent out a message, with limited footage of the old Doctors there's not much they can do.[/sp]

The only letdown is that we didn't got the cool arrangement from the 50 years trailer.
[QUOTE=Lordgeorge16;42962559][sp]Could've gone back in time and told them.[/sp][/QUOTE]I suppose. [sp]I guess they could go and say 'get working on how to move a planet, can't tell you why though! and then they'd also all forget that it happened due to the time lines not being in sync[/sp]
[QUOTE=CoolCorky;42962591][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/t6mpFJ2.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] Just imagine seeing that face in the sky, coming ever closer. The world would still end in three days, but you'd be laughing anyways.
[QUOTE=Dan2593;42961654]The Tom Baker scene is so funny. It's just Tom Baker being The Fourth Doctor and himself at the same time. Perfectly.[/QUOTE] I read a theory that it's actually a future Doctor, thus the 'an old favourite' bit. Dunno what to think 'bout that.
oh yeah I was also slightly disappointed we didn't get proper titles I mean the old ones were good, but they shoulda used that trailer music like oskramorir said
In-episode credits, as predicted.
So, today we got the first eight doctors, Hurt doctor, 9-11 Doctors, Capaldi Doctor and Future Doctor that reuses Bakers face. 14 Doctors. Bam.
When they mentioned the 'old curator', was anyone else expecting Capaldi?
[QUOTE=oskramorir;42962686]Future Doctor that reuses Bakers face.[/QUOTE][I]it's not a future doctor[/I]
[QUOTE=Freeze;42962738][I]it's not a future doctor[/I][/QUOTE] It is, he said that when he retires he might be reusing old favorite faces of his.
No he doesn't, he says revisiting. It's supposed to be a play on words, yes, as if he is the Doctor, but he isn't.
[QUOTE=Freeze;42962738][I]it's not a future doctor[/I][/QUOTE] [sp] 11: I never forget a face TB: No you don't, and in years to come you might find yourself revisiting few, but just the old favorites *smiles* 11: *winks*[/sp]
[sp]As cool as an idea that it would be, I kind of hope he doesn't regenerate into old Four in future Who. What if Baker dies and they don't make any archive footage for and after the regeneration scene when the show comes to an end? Because I can easily see that him becoming the museum curator as his final regeneration being the end of the show.[/sp]
How does that mean he's the Doctor? I might not forget my best friend's face, and maybe one day I'll revisit him or her and see him again - because he or she is an old favourite. It's supposed to be mysterious and stuff. Hell, it might even be explained when Capaldi being both in Torchwood and Doctor Who twice is - but whatever happens the Curator is not the Doctor. It's not breaking the fourth wall, but it's certainly touching it.

It's just timey wimey bollocks that resolves itself, like everything that Moffat writes.
Ok, potentially dumb question, but this isn't available online anywhere, is it? I don't have BBC America in my dorm, and I'm not seeing it listed on Amazon or Google Play or anything. Just a couple minisodes that are from August or so.

If you're suggesting what I think you are, then it won't be possible for me. I'm living on campus, and they monitor our bandwidth for bays like those that Mr Sparrow frequents.
it was really good and I liked it a lot. ok thanks bye

Understandable if you don't want to risk it however.
So... the Master?
[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;42962944]I just realised, the whole Gallifrey thing works kinda well. The Master only 'knows' that Gallifrey was destroyed because of what The Doctor said, and the fact that Gallifrey was never destroyed means that the signal sent to him was always there. Furthermore the High Council and general population probably didn't know about the Doctor's plan, and thought they were in the final day of the time war, cue the End of Time.[/QUOTE] Doctor steals The Moment -> High Council panics upon finding out, devices plan -> End of Time events occur -> End of Time events end -> 13 Doctors show up to do their magic?
Christ, I keep rewatching [I]the scene.[/I] I think the only thing that could have made it substantially better would have been a cut-to of [sp]the Daleks. I wish I didn't have to imagine what their reaction would be to fucking thirteen Doctors suddenly appearing and being fucking badass.[/sp]
