Leadworth?

Is this Leadworth in the background? I think it is!

Series 6 Speculation

So! Here are my theories and stuff for this years Xmas special and series 6!

So, the moff has said the story arcs will be based around who River Song is and the Silence!

River Song:

We know that River Song is very close to the doc. We also know she may have killed him. We also know that even the Daleks were scared of her! Who is she? I doubt she is the doctors wife. (Or anyone related to him) or the doc himself. I think we all know that the moff has known who she really is from when he wrote silence in the library!

skip the video below to 4:00 and watch the clip:




Is River Song the docs Father?! lol

Silence:
Well, endless possibilities here. We know that this person can control the TARDIS. We know it has the power to blow up the TARDIS. We know it's male. We know it has wierd sort of landing marks on Amys grass. We also know that it has the power to create settings and people out of memories (is it just me or has memory been a recuring theme throughout series 5?)
I am hoping for the big baddie to be Augustus Pond! No! I honestly don't think it will be Omega or the Valeyard, or the Master, or DavroS. I think it is a new enemy!

Now, onto some things I want to see in series 6!:

Well, Niel Gainmans episode will be AMAZING! He is a very creepy writer and also very strange. Alice in Wonderland-y tones come from his writing, as well as a Tim Burton-y quality! I'm using -y alot. But I am hoping for a scary story from Gainman. The House of Nothing certainlly sounds a great title (be it used or not)

I really want the doc, Amy and Rory to go to ancient Egypt. Perhaps this christmas special will see a trip to Egypt (goddess loose on the space orient express!) Or maybe we need another author! Enid Blyton? With Noddy, having tea. In the middle of the countryside? or maybe Henry VIII!

NEW MONSTORS! Please! The Moffs series wasn't to filled with new monstors. The only eps with new monstors were 1, 2, 6, 7, 10, 11. Thats less than half the series! RTD created his classic Ood! (the classic aliens of new who in my opinion) We need a new Moff montsor that goes down as argublly the best enemy in who history!

Lot's of River Song! I really warmed to her this series! She needs to have more episodes. Maybe one of the things she mentioned in her diary. Can't wait to see more of her!

More short Skirts. As a male fan, I have to say that I was impressed with the amount of time Amy spent in miniskirts! MORE PLEASE ;)

An acctual good Christmas special would be nice. As evrey one of them has been a flop. The trio in wedding gear can't be far from wrong! lol! CANT F****** wait for Xmas! Just 181 days to go!

YAY! Thats it. Where would you like to see the doc go?

The History Hunt - Synopsis

A new game will be releaed on the Doctor Who website, NOT PART OF THE ADVENTURE GAMES!

Here is the sort of synopsis:

It's called The History Hunt and is an interactive game where you must help Amy and the Doctor. It's not one of our new Adventure Games but it does involve you following clues and entering the world of the Doctor! It's full of exploration, fun and exclusive videos and is coming to the doctor who site soon!

Looks cool!

My Top Ten New Who Episodes

So, another series gone! With the six months wait till Christmas with an Egyptian Goddess on the orient express, I have decided to compile a list of my top ten new who eps. I have only seen about 20 classic who episodes, so I won't review them.

Here they are: (BTW, Two parters count as one whole ep)

10: The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances
Just better than the empty child. I loved this episode, It was terrifying, emotional, funny. I think I nearly collapsed when the 9th doc said about haaving a craving for blondes in union jacks! The scene with Rose telling Nancy that Britain won the war was beautiful, and EVREYBODY LIVES! truly the best 9th doctor adventure!

9: Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead
Although no where near as scary as moffs blink or the empty child, I still loved this episode. Forest of the Dead cosiderablly more than Silence in the Library. Moffats parralel world created for Donna was genius and the mystery River Song was a truly nail biting mystery spanned over the episodes. Although not as scary, the whole two episodes were spectacular and emotional and...incredibbly written!

8: Turn Left
I know I'm no fan of RTD's writing. But this was (And I hate to say it) an incredible peice of television. Evreything! The concept, the acting (catherine tate blew my mind in the circle of mirrors scene)and I loved checking off the list all the alien invasions that happened. An Epic Cliffhanger too!

7:The Unicorn and the Wasp
The most hilarious episode of who! I love Agatha Christie. And all the book references were awesome! Scary aswell. Although, the wasp was the best peice of CGI work on the show to date. I think it would have worked better if this time there was no alien. It was an acctual person! But the comedy more than made up for it! HARVEY WALLBANGER!

6: The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit
WOW! EPIC television! By far the best of series 2. The ood were Terrifying! That voice made me wet myself, don't turn around, Toby! Just, incredible!

5: The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone
Another classic story from the moff. Better than any RTD ep! The weeping angels were back and worse this time round! The crack was there too! And the two doctors! River song was more explored and we find out that she killed someone! Terrifying, scary and with great acting from The trio (matt, karen and Alex)
and when the angels moved I shot out of my chair!

4:Blink
Just better than the EPIC two parter that follows this. Blink really does play with your mind and your nerves. A haunted house was an obvious thing for Doctor Who to do yet it has never been done before. Sally Sparrow is PERFECT companion material (maybe series 9?) and that montage of statues at the end...... ARRRGGGHHH!

3: Cold Blood
I'm not putting the hungry earth in with this as I didn't enjoy it as much as I should have done! But ep 9 was spectacular! It was fast paced and exciting! even without that last five minuites, but those last five ranked it up from say, my 15 fav ep ever to 3rd! THE SILURIANS ARE BACK! AND BETTER THAN THEY HAVE EVER BEEN BEFORE!

2: Amy's Choice
Stunning Episode with a chilling villan! What more can I say! Ice TARDIS looked awesome!

1: Vincent and the Doctor
WOOO HOOO! This is Doctor Who! Not just fighting monstors, but saving Vincent!
Made me cry all three times I've seen this! Amazing CGI in the sky turning into starry night! My daughter is now bugging me to go to see the church at Auvers and they really are interested in Van Gogh. The monstor Did look like a chickin. But it wasn't supposed to be scary. It was a paralell to Vincent (who was amazingly played by Toby Curran) BEST WHO EP EVER!
So, thats it! As you can see, I have alot of series 5 eps thrownin there! But seeries 5 was by far that best series!

11 Better Than 10 !

O.K people, he's done it!

Matt Smith's Eleventh Doctor is officially my favourite incarnation, he beat DT to number 1. He's just perfect in the role.

Why do I now prefer him?

IMHO, Matt is a better actor! He can convey so much expressionand so many emotions on his face all at once. Yes, David was an AMAZING actor. But I felt he slightly over acted the role towards the end of time part 2. And I felt RTDs writing contributed to that.

How alien he is. I know alot of people have said that, but I really can tell that 11 is an alien. 10 was waaaaayyyy to human. All the little quirks. Especially the way he checks his watch! And his hair is very alien.

Basically, the big bang was Matts best episode of the series. The scene when he was strapped into the pandorica and he was talking to Amy was STUNNINGLY acted!

Roll on Matt Smith. May 11 reign for years to come!

P.S. How different does he look in the pic with short hair!

Cool huh!

The Series 5 Finale - My Review

WOW1 WHAT AN AMAZING COUPLE OF EPISODES! The best series finale by a billion miles! A perfect ending to a PERFECT series!

Lets start with ep 12:

I loved the returning characters, a.k.a, Liz Ten and Churchill! And that was before the titles kicked in. The action with River was great (in the prison) and I loved the reference to both star wars and the end of time part 2.

I really felt moffats writing was the best hit's been here, creating suspense easily.
River impersonating Cleopatra was HILARIOUS! And her carving 'Hello Sweetie' in the oldest cliff face in the universe was a paticular highlight. And a very River-y thing to do!
The whole 'stone hendge being built as a marking for the pandorica' was clever! And I also felt The Moff handled the cybermen perfectly. And he made them VERY scary with thier tentacles (a very chilling scene with Amy and the tentacles)

The SFX were STUNNING the spacships in the sky were just... WOW! good enough to be a hollywood movie!
The Aliance was a good idea, and I was worried that moff would not pull it off. But he didn't focus on the various enemues much, which was good.
I don't know who filmed this, but the cinematogropjy needs to be noted. Not only being the best cinematogrophy I've seen in who. But the shots and colour tones really gave this a cinematic feel! FANTASTIC STUFF

And the revelation that the pandorica was built for the doc was a great one! It seems obvious to evreyone now. Yet we never guessed (that is, untill some concept art was released early)

Oh, and RORY RETURNS! YAY! but, he's acctually an auton...

AND THE BEST CLIFFHANGER IN WHO HISTORY! Better than The Stolen Earth cliffhanger. It was a LOOOOOOONNNNG nail biting week!

10/10

Now lets move on to ep 13:
A FANTASTIC conclusion! The cliffhanger resolved nicley, with ALOT of Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey stuff going on.

I LOVEED the fact that the ep started the same way ep 1 started. It feally made you feel emotional, (the same way I felt about the Glee Cast doing a reprise of Dont Stop Believing in thier season finale! - Yes, I ama Glee fan, what are you gonna do?)
But, the cliffhanger-y of the Amy in the pandorica was AWESOME! And the interaction between young Pond and old Pond was great! I loved how the doctor calls Amy 'Pond' It's sooo cool! (in a wierd geeky way!)

Amyway, The lone centurion idea almost made me weep with mixed emotions. It really proves just how much Rory loves Amy. And the Fez, perhaps he could wear that again sometime?
The SFX NEEED to be noted as the best SFX. Not just this series, but all 5 and the specials. Truly, the doctor flying into the explosion looked AMAZING!

I have to say though, my favourite moment in the ep. Or maybe this who series, or maybe who history, was River Song making the dalek beg for mercy. (I think I squealed with excitment at that point!)
And the flesh and stone thing was correct. I'm not gonna lie and say I spotted it, because I didn't:(, but, Conngrats to all those who did! I though Matts acting, paticularly when he talked to Amy before he flew into the 'big bang' (another AMAZING scene) was WAAAAAYYYY better than anyting DT could have done (don't go blabbing on, it's just my opinion)
And the idea that the pandorica would restore the earth was an EPIC-Y sort of idea that you would find in an RTD finale. But good news guys, The Moff didn't overuse it.
After all the excitment, our doc goes to visit young Amy (again, congrats to those who spotted him flash by in ep 1) in a really beautiful scene. With some of the best Eleven-y qoutes of this series! The one about we're all stories gave me a lump in my throat.

Then, It was DAY! the stars were back. And I was thinking that suddenly, the doc would burst through the door, pick Amy up and tell her to remember him. But he didn't

We saw Amy's parents, (Agustus! What sort of a name is Augustus Pond?!) But then the wedding was awesome!
The whole stuff about the new, the old, the borrowed, the blue really sums up Doctor Who for me. It's something old, new, borrowed and well....blue!
The doc in wedding gear was again, Hilarious, and him dancing made my 7 year old roll on the floor laughing!

And the river song thing....confidential said we will find out next series! OOOOH, exciting! But River Song left walking around in the 21st Century. We will see her again soon!

My only critism was that in ep 5, River told us about the pandorica, so she couldn't possibly die, ruined it a little bit, but HEY! They ALWAYS survive in the end!

At Christmas we have Egyptian Queen on the space Orient Express! With Amy, and Rory, and the doc. All in wedding gear (and hopefully, a fez!)

10/10

It's been a GREAT SERIES!
