now thats not very nice is it?

theres a few who have come to the conclusion Donna cops it.

I've not watched tonights episode yet, but i already know whats up with Donna.

stay tuned for next week is all can say!

So you're being a dick saying "think again" when someone says she doesn't die, and implying you've got knowledge. Others are banding thoeries.

Stop being a dick. And stop trying to be coy and cutesy about.

If you can't stop being a dick, just stop posting.

omedian Catherine Tate is to play Doctor Who's new companion, reprising her role from the 2006 Christmas special, the BBC has announced.

She will join David Tennant for the complete 13-week run of the new series of Doctor Who, which is due to begin filming in Cardiff later this month.

Maybe I mis-read that to mean only the 13 week run...

BTW I think everyone's wrong about the companion thing. What companion has the dr had with him since the beginning, hence his most faithful :wub:

Bernard Cribbins! He fought the Daleks when they invaded in 2150 and the Doctor was going that Grand Moff Tarkin lookalike phase. I'd choose him to save the world from an invading army over these johnny come lately companions.

This is his way of continuing his crusade against the queers. His tolerance is being stretched thinner and thinner.

Just because Donna might not be in the show anymore doesn't mean she dies. She could end up in a parallel universe too or some guff. Or be made to forget it all. Or just bugger off home and not be in the show anymore.

Personally I reckon it will be some kind of not-dead-but-still-effectively-dead plot device like what happened to River Song. It's just that when practically every weekly bit-part implies that Donna's going to die, it's just too obvious.

Not enough Davros, although what little we saw was great. Needs more maniacal malevolence though. I remember him being much more insane. When I was a kid I always found him much more scary than the Daleks. There had better be a lot more of him next week.

My friends theory:

Thanks to the hand the Doctor generates into 2 seperate Doctor one being David Tennant, one Doctor goes and live and loves Rose in the other dimension, other Doctor lives on being savior of the universe.

One 'slight' thing I didn't like: While the Doctor and Rose did get some kind of reunion, when Captain Jack appeared he hardly acknowledged her. Granted the Doctor had been shot, universe in danger blah, blah, blah but I really wanted a moment between the two of them, given how close they were in the first series.

I know it probably wasn't possible given the circumstances, but still...

my theory

The shadow proclamation bint said "You have something on your back. Donna was tricked into believing the bug thing was gone, or the bug wasn't the thing on her back, it was trying to eat the thing on her back. We are still in the alternative future where the Doctor Regenerates, but the fact the planets are ina time shift means it goes wrong and the Docotr suddenly stops regenerating, but realises he has another 13 lives.

It's already been confirmed by several people, including a doubter, that the creature was referred to in the past tense. That she had it on her back, not that she has it on her back. It would be shit if it was a trick involving that creature though.

Also, Goaty, stop with this teasing "I know what going to happen but I can't tell you" shit.

I've been thinking about this a bit more, and I'm wondering whether the surprise over the doctor's regeneration is due to the writing, or whether it's due to the media not running stories on it all the time.

Genuine question, as I can't really remember how the last regeneration was handled. I do remember that it'd been well publicised that the Doctor was getting changed from Ecclestone into Tennant, and which episode it was happening in, so it wasn't a surprise to anyone when it did happen.

Whereas in last night's episode, the Doctor getting shot and regenerating (if that is what happens) hadn't been mentioned in the media at all. But the method of him getting shot and the writing of him getting shot wasn't particularly surprising (in the immediate dramatic impact way), if you see what I mean.

Except, I suppose, having the Doctor, grand high ass-kicker of the Daleks, facing down millions of them all the time and never getting scratched, be shot by some random Dalek who just happened to be in the right place at the right time by pure luck (not some nefarious convoluted Davros scheme or anything) is pretty surprising, just badly directed if they wanted that aspect of it to have any impact.

So, yeah. What made you surprised about the Doctor being shot? The fact that he does get shot, or the fact that you didn't know about it in advance? I think mostly it's the fact that I didn't know about it that's got me surprised.

After the Shadow Proclamation woman said to Donna "there was something on your back", she also said "you are something new" (or "something different", I don't remember exactly). So there's definitely something going on there.

Also, Caan's reference to "the threefold man" has got me fantasising: this could all be a set-up for the Tennant-Ecclestone-McCann dream ticket. Extremely unlikely I know, but speculation's at least half the fun.

Whatever happens, I'll be really disappointed if next week has a cop-out resolution to the regeneration cliffhanger.

I think I was about to explode as the Doctor was beginning to regenerate. When this happnened:

THUD. To

THUD. Be

THUD. Continued

I was clapping, laughing and squealing so loud I nearly made myself sick.

It was absolutely, bloody fantastic.

Please don't let me down next week.
