| Wow, cool creatures! I'm looking forward to this episode, the Pompeii one doesn't sound that interesting. Yay, more Doctor Who time! |

| Here are the titles for all of the episodes of Series 4:
Episode 1 - Partners in Crime
Episode 2 - Fires of Pompeii
Episode 3 - Planet of the Ood
Episode 4/Episode 5 - The Sontaran Stratagem/The Poison Sky
Episode 6 - The Doctor's Daughter
Episode 7 - The Unicorn and the Wasp
Episode 8/Episode 9 - Silence in the Library/Rivers Run
Episode 10 - Midnight
Episode 11 - Turn Left
Episode 12 - TBA (RTD said it will give too much away!)
Episode 13 - Journey's End
Sounds an exciting series! I got these off a blog (which I have posted on this topic already, you can find the link on page 3!), but you can find them in Radio Times, which has done a massive Doctor Who article on series 4, if you don't want to buy it, go onto the blog, its called Planet Gallifrey, I think the copy of the Radio Times will have more info, the blog is just taking bits of the article. Also on the blog it has videos and pictures of the cast and crew filming series 4. |

| It is always so fun to imagine and/or interpret the titles. I have such a strong feeling they are going to do something with the Doctor's hand this year. Maybe they are going to clone the Doc...so he can split in three and be with Rose, Martha and ha Jack (cue the sunset and corny love song).
The Doctor's Daughter has long been a rumour so that episode intrigues me and the one I am looking forward to is the Moffat 2fer. That was a bad run on sentance ...oh well. Just to be speculative... could they really find a way to expand the Doctor's
regeneration? Could they explain Susan? Could the Bannerman return? Read the Sun to find out the "reliable" rumours first! |

| Well, his daughter is created because someone messes with his DNA, and it creates Jenny, who is the Doctor's Daughter. Apparently, there is something to do with the Doctor's hand, every time something big happens it vibrates or something like that. But apparently there will be no word-arc storyline, like series 1 - Bad Wolf, series 2 - Torchwood, series 3 - Saxon, but something from every episode will contribute to the finale. |

| I feel a bit anxious about a finale called "Journey's End". Oh well, I guess it's better to just enjoy the series, rather than worry about the ending! |

| "Journey's End" sounds a little TOO foreboding. I doubt RTD would have announced the title (or even named it that) if there was going to be a regeneration. Maybe I'm just trying to convince myself. My guess is that the Doctor almost dies and a huge cliffhanger leads into the season 5 movies. |

| I think at this point we should be thankful for what we have received thus far. 4 brilliant NEW seasons of a much beloved character. There is no arguement that David and Christopher rank amongst some of the most popular Doctors in the history of the show. Television is a competitive market for ANY show: ratings, directors, actors all play against/for each other in making shows a success. We have also had 2 great spin-offs too!
As for us the viewer it is important that we continue to support the show wherever it may take us. If the inevitable should come to pass and a regeneration should take place at some point in the near-ish future. Whomever the new Doc may be we should all give him/her a shot. Can you imagine stepping into a role with that much baggage behind it?
-This concludes the public service announcement.
happy viewing all! |

| Yeah, what LakeErieMonster said, anyway, the BBC Doctor Who site has been updated, brand new design, very cool! Personally, I like it, it will take a while to find out where everything is though! |

| Apparently, Episode 9, Steven Moffat's episode has changed its title, instead of 'Rivers Run', it is now 'Forest of the Dead', I found this info on a website which is very reliable. |

| Episode 1, Partners in Crime, has just finished!! Great episode to begin the series! Very funny! I won't tell anyone what happened. I am watching Dr Who Confidential at the moment. But, I will say something, their was a familiar face near the end. That is all I will say. |

| Also just finished watching Ep. 1 and it was a good start to the series. Donna at least isn't googly-eyed for the Doctor which for me is a welcome change in itself. As DoctorOlly indicated, there is a familiar face that shows up. |

| Patients are for doctors which is probably why I have none, and why I could hardly wait for the chance to see the series 4 premier. Just watched Partners in Crime - ****and 1/2. Liked it overall but was not as impressed with the "familiar face" appearance. Full opinion and face name below. - Spoiler:
Not bad for a series opener, the start was a little overplayed to me with the "just missing each other bits" between the Doctor and Donna. I rather liked Miss Foster, who, for the record, was NOT the Rani as some had predicted. As to the ending and the "familiar face", RTD got in the first "what the hell was that for?!" of the season by adding a brief appearance by Rose. Really over shadowed Donna's acceptance of the offer to be a companion, by raising the question of why are we settling for Donna when Rose was just there?
The "familiar face" is probably one of those little bits added to each episode to tie together the finale that someone else mentioned. Really would have preferred a Bad Wolf/Torchwood/Saxon tie together if this is the kind of "bits" we will be seeing. Especially since it was the first ep and I'm looking past all others to the end as my mind begins to wonder how something will tie in, instead of just enjoying each ep and noticing the tie in along the way. I really hope the other "bits" aren't as obtrusive.

| I shrieked at the familiar face! I knew it would appear eventually, just wasn't expecting it in the opening episode. |

Same here, apart from the shriek, it was totally unpredicted! |

| New info concerning the finale: - Spoiler:
From the mouth of Wikipedia:
"A press-only trailer for the series showed Penelope Wilton reprising her role as Harriet Jones, and the main antagonist of the series having the lower half Dalek and the upper half humanoid"
Could she be right-hand man... I mean, woman! to Davros? Or even Davros's, you know...
Or maybe everyone has been leading us to believe Davros is coming back when in fact they are just covering up the Harriet Jones plot? RTD has done this before!
The Medusa Cascade has been mentioned briefly in an episode (I think!) well, in the DWM it has and is apparently linked to the Daleks in the finale after the Doctor is shot down, they gather round the TARDIS and one says, "Teleport up to the Medusa Cascade" (or summing like that)
"There is something on your back!" Been rumours Donna will be taken over by something on her back (SJS - Planet of the Spiders)
"I think your song must end soon" Regeneration for Number 10?

| Already filming the Christmas special. Found this at Who News.. David Morrissey has been reunited with his Blackpool co-star David Tennant for this year's Doctor Who Christmas special. According to a report by the Press Association, the pair appeared on set yesterday in the grounds of Gloucester Cathedral. Further details are given in the spoiler box - which may contain information you do not want to know. - Spoiler:
"College Green was covered with artificial snow for the scene filmed today, in which mourners in Victorian costume marched in front of a horse-drawn cart carrying a coffin.
"Tennant was dressed in the Doctor's trademark ankle-length brown coat, while Morrissey was kitted out in full period garb - a tan knee-length jacket and red waistcoat.
"A security guard sat in front of the Tardis, which was tucked down a nearby alleyway, covered by a white sheet.
"Tennant waved to the crowds as the crew prepared the intricate set and covered the surrounding historic buildings with fake snow.
"Secrecy surrounds the Christmas episode's storyline, but it's believed to feature the Cybermen - the Doctor's deadliest enemies."
Elsewhere, it has been reported that Dervla Kirwan is also in the special.

| The Cybermen aren't the DEADLIEST enemies, the Daleks are, but as we saw at the end of Rise of Cybermen, they're destructive, LOL! Anyway, I think I found out the 'There's something on your back!' from Fires of Pompeii. Apparently, Donna is running down a street with wires on her back (NOT SURE ABOUT: She gets hit by a car) apparently the wires look like a teleportation device. |

| Agatha Christie tonight! But unfortunately Doctor Who will be postponed for a week due to Eurovision  . We will have to wait 2 weeks before seeing the first part of Moffat's 2-parter, but on a lighter note, we will be getting a new trailer at the end of TUATW. The first part of Moffat's two parter, Silence in the Library, will air on May 31st, 3 days before my birthday, too bad its not on my birthday... |
