Lantern7 July 23, 2018 Share July 23, 2018 CBR covers press conference. The TARDIS might not show up after last year's special. I imagine a sceanario where the Doctor is forced to live on Earth, working for UNIT. Then I imagine Osgood hugging her and squeeing, "ROOMIES!!!" And then I saw the "no old stuff" bit. I can understand. Also, if you brought back old enemies/monsters, you'd have to waste at least ninety seconds of them huddling up. "I thought he was a guy!" "He is!! I think!" "This is weird. I mean, I get genderfluid and all that, and I can be supportive, but how will anyone believe us when we kill her?" "Him?" "ARRRRGGH!!!!" I also notice Jodie has multiple earrings on the left side.

Without getting into spoilers, there were rumors about the Doctor going back and meeting a certain pivotal figure in American history, and there are some scenes in the trailer that look to be set in a time period contemporary to that person. So even if she doesn't have the TARDIS at the start of the season, it seems like she'll be getting it back. Regarding that footage that leaked... Spoiler She was shown building her screwdriver, so I'm not going to be surprised if we have a running plot involving her having to make repairs. Which I like, just because I like the idea of her being very hands-on. While I understand the show's desire to move forward, I am vaguely disappointed that we won't get to see Kate or Vastra react to her.

Possibly by the end of the season. Remember that the TARDIS was damaged at the end of "Twice..." and seemed to eject the Doctor. It's possible that the TARDIS was very damaged, to the point of needing major repairs. Add in a sprinkle of Pertwee, and I can see a season of the Doctor "stuck on Earth" needing to fix the TARDIS. And if some components are lost in the past or future, the Doctor could rig up some devices like Jack's armband. Dirty time travel, but time time travel nonetheless. 11 hours ago, starri said: While I understand the show's desire to move forward, I am vaguely disappointed that we won't get to see Kate or Vastra react to her. While I agree that seeing the Doctor's previous female friends and companions react to her would be great, I get why they're not doing that in this series. This is the biggest change in the Doctor's history since the first regeneration. The new Doctor needs, forgive the pun, some time to establish herself as the Doctor before encountering her past. The next series will probably begin reintroducing the old elements again. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/100931-doctor-who-in-the-media/page/10/#findComment-4521822

Frustrating! I am late to the Whoniverse -- five or six years ago, I stumbled on a marathon and was hooked, even though the episodes weren't shown in order. However, because of that, I had a heck of a time trying to figure out the River Song story, among other things. I had to resort to going online and looking up each show by its title in order to figure things out. It seems like it would be easier for the network to attract new viewers if the shows were shown sequentially, especially in this case since they're being used as a promotion for a new season.

benteen October 1, 2018 Share October 1, 2018 I liked Peter Capaldi a lot. He always did a strong job as the Doctor. He was a great representative for Doctor Who and a nice guy (I met him once at Comic Con and can attest to this). But I admit I never warmed up to his Doctor like the previous 3. I blame that partially on the fact that he never had a good showrunner. I'm hoping that will change with Jodie Whittaker. Her Doctor seems a lot more likeable and fun in the little footage they've shown so far.
