I've been a fan since childhood. The Vervoid story from Trial of a Timelord probably being the most terrifying moment of my childhood!

Just watched 'The Doctor's Wife'. Brilliant episode, I thought. Neil Gaiman should write more episodes. Loved this line of dialogue from the Doctor:"There aren't any Time Lords left anywhere in the Universe, but the Universe isn't where we're going! See that snake? The mark of The Corsair – fantastic bloke! He had that snake as a tattoo in every regeneration; he didn't feel like himself unless he had that tattoo, or herself a couple of times, ooh-hoo-hoo, she was a bad girl!"

For me this latest episode was about as good as it gets!

Would have been nice if Matt could have turned down the silliness a touch - but still, we cant have perfection... It was still an excellent effort - and one of the few that actually managed to scare me for a few minutes.

Lovely homage to zombies and gothic horror.

I do like the Rebel Flesh, although the vat of goo did seem a little too Auton vat of goo at times with a side order of Cassandra when the mouth and eyes first formed

I thought the goo was meant to be similar to the auton goo, hence the focus on Rory. But I'm just hoping for the centurion thing to have an impact on this season it sort of seems like everyones forgotten.

OMG how monumental was that ending last night?  Complete squeegasm as it was completely intense and shocking, what's going to happen next week?  It's going to be epic...

Without giving any spoilers away, suffice it to say that a quick look at the cast list for next weeks episode confirms that:

I AM BACK!  ;D

Jenny is about to be reborn. :laugh: one might even say she has Rejennyrated.  :laugh:

Hopefully people have seen it by now. Yeah, i literally just watched it and thought i'd post.
I thought the baby would turn out to be theirs & not Jenny. But my question is, why are they taking a break? D:

Is anyone else confused or am I just being very thick? Either way I have no idea what's happening.

Amy got kidnapped because some unknown villain wants to use her baby  (half timelord & half human) against The Doctor.
The Doctor has become a feared being in the universe and its what's bringing people to wanting to harm him (River Song says something like this).
The trap was suppose to do whatever, but it also distracted The Doctor from the fact that the baby that was with Amy was actually a fake.
In the end it turns out the baby is River Song, and The Doctor pops off to obviously go rescue her.
I believe the confusion maybe because people have been believing Jenny is returning? But that's not the case just yet...

And another thing. The Doctor isn't aware that River can actually regenerate, but we the audience got to see a little girl do so in New York.

The servant of the Silurian was called Jenny I think.

It's a bit like Quantum Physics.  If it's not profoundly disturbing you haven't understood it properly.

Thanks, I think I've got it now, I still have loads of questions but I guess I'll have to wait until autumn for them to be answered :(

You're welcome. What questions do you have? Just curious.

Just questions like where the Doctor's going and how River ended up in prison. Things that we all want to know. Although, here's another question for you, why do the humans hate the Doctor so much? Isn't he on their side, he keeps saving them, why do they want to kill him?

QuoteJenny is the daughter of the tenth incarnation of series protagonist the Doctor (David Tennant), a product of altered DNA extracted from a tissue sample from his hand.

The Doctor cradles her dying form in his arms, and is visibly distraught when she does not revive or regenerate from the wound. In the episode's closing scenes after the Doctor leaves, Jenny revives, takes a small spaceship, and takes off into the unknown to become an explorer like her father

Those are all good questions that will be answered in due time.
I think we have had certain humans that have decided to go against the doctor before, but i think we usually get some sort of answer to why they would (basically bad guys).
I think we'll probably have another episode exploring doppelgangers again...

I have gotten Season One to catch up.  It starts out where the Doctor meets Rose.  It is great to see the Doctor again, regardless of the regeneration.
