Hmm, it was 2005 he began regenerating. Oh dear, this is a tad confusing.

It's best you just don't think about it. Amy should have remembered the Daleks, but doesn't. It'll be explained.

It could be a side effect of the "Forget" button on the SS UK.

The Doctor said it erased about 20 minutes. I think if it made her forget a key event in human history then I'm surprised she remembered the Doctor.

On a different note, the Doctor and Jo Grant (3rd Doctor companion) will be appearing in Series 4 of the Sarah Jane Adventures. However, it is only rumoured that Amy will appear. Other rumours are that there will be a sequel to SJ's final apperance as the companion to the 4th Doctor ("The Hand of Fear"), the Trickster will return (he always does), the Weeping Angels might appear and Luke might be leaving. Boo hiss, he can't leave, he's too cute.

well it would be 2000 at least before the doctor met amy, meaning its currently set in 2014, but if you go for 2005, it'd be 2019. So its abit confused there

No i think something has been erasing parts of history and this has caused cracks in space and time. but who or what is the question

Ummm tomorrow I'll be watching the Weeping Angels, it's the first of a two parter and looks amazing.

It is canon fact that The Stolen Earth's events occured in 2009 in the whoniverse, somewhere Moff stated that Doc 11 first met Amy in 1997, traveled 12 years to 2009 (June 2009 I think), then another two to 2011. I'll try and find the source...

Dalek · « **Reply #527 on:** May 01, 2010, 02:21:38 PM »

Well that finally settles Amy's birth year and current date. So she was born in 1989 and first met the Doctor in 1996 since the wedding is now confirmed (in the episode just gone in the UK) as 26/06/2010.

And deary me, revelation mania.

Indeed, however the one criticism I have of this series, besides the new TARDIS design (interior). Must be the fact that in every episode so far 11 has got really angry at something... I mean with all the other Doctors they rarely got angry and when they did, you knew that something really. REALLY. Bad was happening, with 11 it's just getting a bit tiring if I'm honest...

I do love the way they used the old TARDIS model in the CGI of the fourth episode, as much as it is a glaring continuity error, it was nice to see the rickity old thing (probably) one last time...

Did anybody else notice that when The Doctor came back with the whole "You have to start trusting me speech" he was wearing his Jacket again? It also wasn't the one he had used thus far in the series, it was the one we see in the next episode...

Spooky huh? =D

The concern I've heard is that they might turn the Eleventh Doctor into a jackass, like they did Colin Baker and the Sixth Doctor (a lot of people absolutely despised the Sixth Doctor - so much so, didn't the BBC fire him?) - this time, on the basis of people not taking him seriously (possibly because of Matt Smith's relative youth when compared to his predecessors, including former youngest Doctor Peter Davison).

mckinneyc · « **Reply #530 on:** May 04, 2010, 06:41:53 AM »

I think it's just his emotions are a lot closer to the surface and I think the life experience of the previous Dr plays a part in that. He'll settle down like Tennant did.

I noticed this Dr is a lot more critical of the human race, questioning why he keeps saving us despite us never seeming to grow into enlightened people and I like this as it hammers home he's not human and I think he has a point, are we worth saving each time?

I'm really liking the new series.

Dalek · « **Reply #531 on:** May 04, 2010, 11:30:45 AM »

I interpreted the Doctor's reaction to the colonists on the planet as enjoyment. Look at the smile and the way he says "You're like rabbits! I'll never get done saving you." I don't think he's questioning why humans arent becoming more enlightened, he's had more than an enough time to know they're very flawed.

mckinneyc · « **Reply #532 on:** May 04, 2010, 01:59:26 PM »

Yeah he did there you're right but I was refering to the episode with the huge Star Whale.

Dalek · « **Reply #533 on:** May 04, 2010, 02:05:22 PM »

Well, the Doctor has always said humans are stupid apes. Its sort of like a love/hate relationship between him and humans.

I think the end of "The Waters of Mars" soured him on the Human race.
granted, BBC:A didn't air the Christmas Special, so I only know the basic plot of that episode I don't know the specifics,(please don't spoil anything for me) something could have happened during that episode that effected him.

Dalek · « **Reply #535 on:** May 04, 2010, 04:07:07 PM »

If anything, the Christmas special would've made him like humans even more. Thats all I'm saying.

As to why he'd get pissed at humans for setting the time right when we all know he was wrong to change such a dramatic event, 'tis very stoopid of the Doctor.

Daystar70 · « **Reply #536 on:** May 05, 2010, 04:15:59 AM »

The Doctor's perception of the human race is based on his age and his superior intellect. "Enlightened" beings view the universe around them sort of 3 dimensionally, The time lords of old kept a distance and "observed" everything but were "de-sensitised" much like if we only saw the world thru say, youtube, seeing is only one aspect of sense, experiencing and feeling and all that is another. The Doctor has immersed himself in the middle of all manners of life across the universe, hoping to effect and inspire change in the beings he helps, he sees potential and gets frustrated that they don't see the things he does. Its much like being a parent really...

I'm pretty sure it did, considering I've seen it on BBCA several times.

ACES_HIGH · « **Reply #538 on:** May 08, 2010, 02:22:15 AM »

hmm, well if they did they haven't rebroadcast it since, the seem to have skipped it this time around, they've had it on saturday nights for the past few weeks, and they skipped straight from Waters of Mars to Eleventh Hour.

mckinneyc · « **Reply #539 on:** May 08, 2010, 02:07:59 PM »

I think next week we are going to get a shock! Boy or girl do you think?
