Steven Moffat has had the following to say about the next series of Dr Who:

"So what can I tell you about next series? The startling truth about Idris' new soul - even the Doctor doesn't believe her! The frankly appalling revelation concerning the one person in the universe the Doctor trusts the most? Would you like to peek inside a cupboard that will chill your blood, or meet a workforce that will haunt your dreams? Have you ever wondered about Apollo Ten and a half? And have you already guessed that River Song is ..."

And:

"The calamitous and frankly shocking events at the climax of Episode 7 will still be ringing in your ears when Doctor Who returns in the Autumn for a futher six episodes. Oh, yes, feel our cruelty - you will see the Doctor's life change forever, you will gasp in astonishment at the true nature of his relationship with Amy Pond, and you will cry out in horror as Rory Williams stumbles to the brink of a tragic mistake..."


GAH! Why isn't it next Easter yet???

Hm, good point. If it was next Easter, I'd be sitting in a room full of geeks watching this at Eastercon. Which reminds me - I need to book Eastercon. :-)

Sadly we're terribly unlikely to make it to Eastercon this year. Hoping for next year though.

Ditto. Ghastly site, expensive hotel, high room rates (which may or may not include VAT), all adding up to a big feeling of "meh".

The mid-season hiatus is going to kill me with tension and impatience, I just know it.

Who's Idris?

All sounds jolly good though.

Xmas special to look forward to. We should plan a mass Doctor Who gathering for it!

Idris is the main character in the episode written by Neil Gaiman

Mr Ducker: you should run a poll to see which is the most popular theory about River's identity

I enjoy the new Doctor a lot, but my daughter is utterly obsessed. It's the first [non-cartoon] TV show she's followed religiously, and bought comics for. [mother is almost equally impressed]

she also wants to be Amy Pond, to the extent she asked if she could have Amelia ad her middle name
I have a theory this may be linked to how much she liked Storm.


I cannot help but wonder how much better Tennents closing days would have been were Moffat in charge.
