Hope no one else hasn't started one

cakebot River got to 1938 but the TARDIS couldn't. She said that it was because the vortex manipulator could sneak through

pedantic alert- the telephone in the tardis door-

in the gas mask episode with 9th, wasnt the phone the really old fashioned one just the earpiece bit on a string? and the doc had to talk into the mouthpiece on the box?

in this one its a telephone telephone (?!)

i know the tardis has changed on the inside a fewtimes but still....

still think the new inside looks too mmuch like a fairground roumdablout thing and the circles on the sides look like targets to shoot arrows on!

best one was the older one, plain white room, console in the middle. simples!

I'm not taken with the current one but I expect it will grow on me

Aw...

Who's in the running, then?

MyOtherNameIsFunnier · 30/03/2013 21:23

Oooh yes who gave her the number?

Oodsigma · 30/03/2013 21:38

It was the Sun or the Star or somewhere. Have also read he's not but Steven Moffat is going.

snowballschanceineaster · 30/03/2013 21:42

I don't think I'd like Matt Smith to go. I've just gotten used to him!

RustyBear · 30/03/2013 22:01

I wonder if the 'lady in the shop' who gave her the number was Rose, if she's coming back for the anniversary episode. Though I'd have thought Clara would have been more likely to call Rose a 'girl' rather than a 'lady' Donna perhaps?

marjproops · 30/03/2013 22:24

hmmm-lady in the shop. wouldnt be Donna as she won the lottery and therefore wouldnt be working in a shop.
Rose?
nah. Donnas mum?
got to be some riddle/conundrum in there, like when duh! until it was in ones face RIVER (pond) Song (melody)

come on whovians, think! its gonna be some so bloody obvious thing that no one will get till the end of the series!

the greatness of the writers of all things Who.

RustyBear · 30/03/2013 22:39

She did just say 'in the shop' though, didn't she? Not 'working in the shop'

Lora1982 · 30/03/2013 22:47

Did they change the theme tune too? I was all set to do my du dud dudle dud bit and it wasnt there

NoHank · 30/03/2013 22:55

Yes I thought maybe rose was the lady in the shop.

Wonder if summer falls will be significant too. And does that mean that amy wrote it???

marjproops · 30/03/2013 23:04

im gonna have to watch it agin and catch all these bits ive missed.

River was the "lady in the shop" surely? (Please tell me we haven't seen the last of her...)

Oodsigma · 31/03/2013 09:43

They referred to downloading the 'cloud' and look up. Xmas episode was cloud related wasn't it?

NoHank · 31/03/2013 09:51

I woke up thinking about this again Hmm

The book, Summer Falls, Clara asked the little boy where he was up to didn't she? I think he said chapter 9 and she said something about 10 or 11 being really scary or someone dies or something like that (can't remember, didn't record so can't watch again!) I wonder if this will mean anything???

Probably not though, I always miss the obvious Grin

NoHank · 31/03/2013 09:58

Just googled, she says Chapter 11 is the best, you'll cry your eyes out.

A reference to the 11th doctor?

Oodsigma · 31/03/2013 10:01

I wondered about that conversation too.
What about episode 11?

Fiderer · 31/03/2013 10:26

I thought that was great. Loved the abbey scenes. Was just reading some reviews harping on about repetition (Blink, The Idiot's Lantern, Silence in the Library) but I enjoy some nods to other episodes.

JC is great so far and I loved the Twitter joke. Minor niggle. Was a bit Hmm that anyone could be that clueless about the WiFi password after a year in the house and Twitter. Yes, she had to be weak in computer skills so they could upgrade her skills with the super-hacking ones but she must have set the password as "rycbar".

And an "ooooh" ? re the woman in the shop who said it was the best helpline in the universe Grin
