The Doctor Who Discussion Thread and Fan Club

I had a strange dream last night.

Basically the Doctor had travelled back to the era of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. They were fearful that their high ranking soldiers were starting to rebel against them. The Doctor tried to mediate the situation but one of the soldiers killed a Knight with his bare hands. All the high ranking soldiers were wearing full armour and their visors were always down. The Doctor demanded they show their identities, but they wouldn't so he he ran up to one and lifted his visor.

Do you want to know what wore the suit of armour? The Weeping Angels!

They had started to wear this armour as it meant people did not look at them directly, since the armour concealed their identities, so they could move about freely. They were raising an army to take over the entire world.

Somehow the Doctor defeated them but I can't remember that bit.

That actually sounds like a good story

Stop confusin' me! Anyway, I agree with your first sentence (the one without the blooming smiley), but what I don't get is River Song. Is she Teh Rani!?

We don't know yet.
She does know the Docs real name though, so possibly his future wife...

Or she could be the Rani. The Rani killed someone - the Doctor. I don't think he would have had a wife though.

He has had a granddaughter, which would - at least when the show was broadcast - implied marriage. Although that may be different. She would have been a Time Lord.

So far, then, whats been the best 5th series villain for you guys?
Toss up between the Army of the Weeping Angels and the Dream Lord.

I'd say the Daleks, but the mob with pitchforks and flaming torches would run me outta the thread for saying that.

For me, my favorite villains have yet to appear. And they will appear.

The new series doesn't perfectly follow the old series. It is handwaved by saying "the Last Great Time War fucked a lot of shit up."

And about River knowing the Doctor's real name. Notice the foreshadowing in the Dream Lord episode where he mocks Amy Pond for thinking the Doctor trusts her by asking her if he has told her his real name.

Foreshadowing - you sound like my English teacher!!

I just thought - will we find out anything about that woman who turned up in the New Year episode with the Master? You know, the one whom everyone thinks will turn out to be his mother? I think that may have something to do with this. A lot of DW plots are interlinked.

I liked the Daleks. I love the colours!! And there's even blue!! (Although I didn't see any purple...)

Is it the Cybermen? They haven't turned up yet, and I believe they are forecast too. We may be due another incarnation of them as well...

@The first set of quotes: True. I'm gonna look it up, since I got six weeks off school. Stoopid trampoline... breakin' mah leg...

Jog my memory. Are they the dinosaur things? Or have we seen them in the new Doctor Who (by which I mean 9th Doctor onwards. It would have been so much easier just to say that, wouldn't it...)

The first one.

They're in the next two episodes.

EDIT: Did you know UNIT have their own site? http://www.unit.org.uk/ And they say it's top secret.

That Episode was Brilliant
Finally a proper Name For the Main Villains

I'm not too sure where the crack was this time. I think it was either in the ground when the man got sucked in, or in the mirror when what's-his-face-yes-the-one-with-the-green-stuff-on-his-chest looked at it.

I think they've stopped with the crack for the moment, the last few haven't had any

I'm really looking forward to next week's, though. If nothing else that episode had a good cliffhanger. As for the Silurians- I reckon we could take 'em. We've done it before and if those scaly nutjobs are wondering around dissecting people then we've got the right to defend ourselves.

Did you read Kippers' posts?

"Is this Honor? Is This war? Are these what Weapons you would Use!? TELL ME!"

That line could not be beaten without William Shatner trying to sell a whole slaughtered pig.
