I agree.

It explores questions of identity, personality and uniqueness. There are also a couple of nice nods to the Frankenstein story and other legend.

The bodies are animated through electricity. Ganger = Doppelganger.

I don't know!

To all doctor who fans!!!
After the next episode there's a break until autumn NOOOOOOOO!!!It's probably so there’s no break bettewn the summer and christmas!


Does anyone else (apart from me) watch doctor who confidential (Wrong spelling I Think)? Because the last one was soooo funny with matt smith holding the puppet while attacking what’s her name (The person who plays Amy).I think its killain something?

I found out a few days ago from a friend that...
Spoiler:
....That Sarah Jane will be appearing in another doctor who episode maybe in this series. Basically I think what happens is she dies gets put into a Tardis shaped coffin the priest is David tenant (Yes the 10th doctor returns!) and the 11th doctor is there! Apparently they argue over who's Tardis is who’s, because of Amy that takes off the St john's ambulance sigh off the 11th doctors Tardis and paints one on the 10th doctors Tardis. Apparently in the end they take the wrong one!Ha! ...

....Hope this helps?




I hope so very much this is true! I would LOVE for this to happen! It reminds me of that Christmas special "The Next Doctor" during Tennant's reign of awesome.

This.. will be most delicious to watch.

Same here It would be a good epsoide compared to the latest serise.(The only good one so far I think was the first 2).

I doubt there will actually be a break in the series; it's never happened before. Ever.

Maybe you could quote give a link to your sources of information?

Doctor Who Wiki wrote:Filming started in July 2010. This series was preceded by a 2010 Christmas Special, written by Steven Moffat. The series is split into two sections, with the first episode, The Impossible Astronaut airing on 23rd April 2011. It will then stop after the seventh episode, A Good Man Goes To War is aired. The series will pick up from episode eight in the Autumn, and run through to the finale, episode thirteen. Short prequels were released on the official site to publicise the series

What if the Silence had Ganger technology and Amy is a copy. That would explain why the Tardis can't tell whether she's pregnant or not cause the real Amy is and the Ganger isn't.

You know, i was thinking something similar when i saw it last night. The Time Lords have some of the most advanced tech in the Universe and yet their Pregnancy Test is absolutely RUBBISH!

The test itself might be fine, it might be what it's trying to scan that is causing the confusion. Either that, or the Tardis doesn't want to reveal the answer.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

The cybermen are going to be making an apearence in episode 7 and 12.

I wonder if they're going to be Cybermen from the Doctor universe or Pete's world.

Spoiler:
Point taken, i was just annoyed that it kept taking so long. Could easily be a test for a Time Lord foetus, which i never thought of.

This is probably similar to the truth. But then again, it also seems like the little girl from the first episode is related to Amy and the Doctor.. possibly meaning RORY IS NOT A HAPPY BUNNY.

I read on Doctor Who Wiki that Gallifrayons are unable to have children, instead they're 'loomed' into existence as adults but they still have to mature mentally.

Well, in this last episode
Spoiler:
Rory seemed strangely attached to Jennifer, and Amy didn't look too pleased about it, so I think something might happen between those two at some point.

I wasn't exactly convinced at first, but somehow I like this episode more now, that I know it's a 2-parter. Dedicating a whole episode just as a set-up for the next one reminds me of the first season with Ecclestone.

It will be very interesting to see how the Doctor handles the fact that he has a clone now. I wouldn't be too surprised if that incident showed his darker side. He didn't exactly seem happy about it.
I like the idea that the new Doctor might be the one from The Impossible Astronaut, though it would be a bit cheap. To be honest, I'd be surprised if the survives the next episode.

After that i thought they were gone for good but it seems they brought them back for an interesting episode...

According to Doctor Who Wiki that's just a coincidence of them having the same name, they're completely unrelated.
