Didn't watch the "Next Time" preview then?
Nope, didn't want to spoil it (I never watch any of the Who previews for that matter).

Doesn't appear to be anything in any of the usual places yet - mind you, it is probably a bit soon after transmission, especially bearing in mind that Wimbledon/World Cup/F1/The Lord Thy Rog are all happening, and it's the weekend, and it's hot, too... :wink: It'll probably appear in a few hours, accesible from the usual Torrent search engines.

That was pretty good wasn't it? That's tied with that black hole one in my mind for being one of the best slices of Who these last two seasons.

The sphere opening was a complete surprise to us too.

Weird this season, isn't it? Lots of rubbish episodes interspersed with a few really, really good ones.

Great eppisode.

Glade I avoided the threads and thus didnt have a clue about the Daleks.
It was really obvious the sphere wasnt connected with the cybers, but I am glade I was geniuely supprised about what it was :)
(I thought it would actualy turn out to be an ally...like Jack...., not another enemy)


Anyway the only slight problem with the eppisode...and I am being picky;
Cyberman really walk like humans no mater how blury they are ;)

You see, now.

Everyone slags RTD and says he writes the shit episodes.

Yet this was the only episode this entire series where the Doctor was the Doctor, and Rose was Rose. And he upped the ante - twice - in the last ten minutes.

Very nicely done.

Not brilliant but nicely done. Next weeks may achieve brilliance yet.

RTD may just have saved the series ;)
Nothing is worth the effort you put into it.

IsoHunt has torrents of the Doctor Who episodes fairly quickly. I've been using them for a long time. Now, if only I had an extra hard drive to store all the Classic Who episodes....and MST3K....

That...was...awesome!!

I heard ya missed us, we're baaack!

I brought my pencil!

Gimmie somethin' to write on...

Really terrific on all levels, great buildup, perfectly paced. Now, as long as the season finale doesn't finish on another deus ex machina, we'll be in for a great ride. And Davies finally threw a very large bone to the diehard fanboys (after making fun of them in Love & Monsters).

So, is Rose really going to die? I hate so see her go, but if they're promising a spectacular death, then that's what I expect. Don't cop out in the end and cheat.

So when does the Torchwood show go on the air? I'd hope it would be during Dr Who's off-season. UNIT with a neo-con bent...not bad. Speaking of which, somebody bring back Nicholas Coutrney for an episode next season.

As the evening got swallowed up with newfound Liteness, time to join in now...

That was superb, if you ask me. I definitely want to know what's in the thinkg the Daleks bring along, and what makes the black one different.

And I couldn't believe how much Torchwood they showed us in Confidential. Seriously looking forward to that show even more now. "Jack has issues about having come back from the dead" - no shit! I'm hoping the series DOESN'T explain how he got back in time or feature the doctor but that the Christmas special provides the crossover then sets up series 3 and series 2 nicely.

BAD WOLF - I see every atom of your existence, I devide them.

GREAT.

Now we have a void-ship which moves between realities, millions of them all stacked side by side. Think, *BIG F'OFF RUBICS CUBE*, roses power was limited to just one single cube (part) of the puzzle, (the one we saw) + other similar ones. But in one of thopse realities rose didnt go back and the daleks survive and rule.

Ingenious.

No matter what they do they cant get rid now. The rift is open and anything can go anywhere, impossible or not - voidships, merging realities etc.... and now - is there really any point trying to defeat any foe into nothingness ? seems to me a lot bigger task than it first appeared.

Plus we open up the possibility of other doctors that havent regenerated as far as tennant yet.

Hmm, yes, i'd like to explore that, oh yes... and having 3 pete tylers running around like Multiplicity, HAHAHA an ep of multiple clones, now that WOULD be something to laugh at :lol:

IsoHunt is what I tend to use most these days, too.

It's up now (as is the 'Confidential'):
