That sounds similar to a theory I heard on Monday: somehow, all the different Claras throughout history (after the events of The Name of the Doctor) are getting mashed together in some sort of afterlife after they die. Since all of them are connected to the Doctor in some way, the resulting being is obsessed with him.

I've just got to say, my favorite line from the whole first episode with Capaldi:
"Don't look at that mirror - it's furious!"
"Don't look at that mirror - it's furious!"
I liked this one "I'm Scottish. I've gone Scottish. Oh no, that's good. I'm Scottish. I can complain about things.".. but couldn't find the one he referenced the 4th doctor scarf as hideous.
We also don't know what his outfit will be yet, do we?
His rant about his eyebrows was good too
I think the outfit he was wearing in the final scenes of the episode is supposed to be his main outfit; it certainly matches the publicity photos they put out after Capaldi said he'd chosen his costume."They're independently cross! They want to secede and form the independent state of Eyebrows!"
VIBE? heck they practically threw it in our faces when he went "the Marie Antionette sister ship of the Madame de Pompadour... I'm missing something what am I missing.. moving on"
He was wearing the outfit in the last few minutes after he picked Clara up again and asked her a "what do you think" and then landed in modern era. And Clara gets her call.
The outfit was one the first things that leaked out as promotion for the new doctor. It was known before the episode air'd.
Like this new direction with a more stern doctor but still able to work in humor.

And that's not fair because he would be the only doctor not to show us how he picked it out and under what conditions!
Edit: forgot we didn't get to see the 9th's but that's understandable

I had a brainwave earlier: In Deep Breath, the Doctor theorizes that he was trying to tell himself something by regenerating with this face. We know the face is from Pompeii, where he had to set off the volcano and wipe out a city full of people to save the planet from lava monsters.
Maybe he was trying to tell himself that in order to save Gallifrey, he'll have to kill innocent people again. Or maybe just one innocent person; there is that rumour that this Christmas is Clara's last episode....
Excellent conversion in here... Loving it!

Particularly relevant as (for those who maybe aren't aware) Scotland votes in a referendum on 18 September as to whether to leave the UK and become an independent country. The reference to his eyebrows definitely being Scottish because of their desire to form an I dependant state was pure satire! Maybe Peter misses being in The Thick Of It!

A friend posted this on my Facebook today.. I haven't been able to confirm the accuracy... Thoughts?

Not much of a referendum though, with only two eyebrows eligible to vote. It will be either a landslide or a stalemate!
Anyone else excited for tomorrow's episode?
No, but I'm pretty stoked about tonight's episode! :rockin:

Thoughts would be that it's plausible. The garden in the Girl Who Waited was based off a real place so I'm guessing that's what's actually going on. Not that the woman is alternate universe Amy, but who knows.

No, but I am stoked for Sunday when I can buy it from Amazon Prime!
I am surprised no one is talking about the new regeneration energy that he got from Gallifrey somehow altering him.

Okay, 8.2 was VERY VERY good. Yes, I know it's basically "Inner Space", but whatever.. it was a first for DW (as far as I know), and who knows what sort of long-term damage will be done to the Daleks..
sht I missed it!
Darn holiday weekend threw my mind off of schedule. Must download ASAP and watch tonight!

Robots of Sherwood.. halfway through and my stomach hurts from laughing so much...
Yes, it was one of "those" episodes! The Dr. seems out of sorts. He was wishy washy, and let himself be bossed around by his companion all episode long.
Not a bad episode, but I'm still waiting for his real personality to show up.
And I enjoyed watching Clara prance around in that hot dress!

I just discovered a whole mess of classic Doctor Who's on Hulu Plus. I'm watching Episode 2 - The Daleks right now.
"Listen"
Wow.
Wow.
Some excellent spooky moments and learning-about-the-Doctor moments, but I can't help but feel a little bit let down by Listen. I'm STOKED about the bank heist episode coming up, though; I love a good heist story

Well I'm gonna be checking under my bed again lol. One issue I have with this ep. The 2 timelords didn't notice a big blue box in the barn? Other then that loved it.
Bear in mind that not all Gallifreyans are Time Lords.. and the box seemed to be in a cellar part of the barn..
But hey, time travel is believable, right?
