Doctor Who – The Rebel Flesh
Saturday 21 May BBC One
Time to be confirmed
A solar tsunami sends the TARDIS hurtling towards a futuristic factory on Earth, where human doppelgangers are used to mine dangerous acid, as the time-travelling adventures continue.
A second wave hits and the “Gangers” separate. They can remember every second of their “original’s” life and feel every emotion they’ve ever experienced. But are these memories stolen or have they been bequeathed? Are the Gangers merely faulty machinery that must be shut down or are they living, breathing, sentient beings? Can the Doctor convince the terrified humans to accept these “almost people” and prevent an all-out civil war before the factory explodes?
The Doctor is played by Matt Smith, Amy by Karen Gillan and Rory by Arthur Darvill.

That actually makes PERFECT SENCE! You are a legend! No wonder she says CALM, JUST STAY CALM! Just one thing, how do you know she is Amys Doctor.

Yup, I can see your point.

Im glad that they changed Gangers to The Almost People because when the BBC released The Rebel Flesh synpnosis there is that bit when it says can the Doctor convice the humans to accept these almost people because thats what clones are really like. Both these episodes Im looking forward to seeing them.

Hmmmmm, Clones?
Could “The Doctor” that died in the first episode be a clone and not the “Proper” Doctor?
Posted by: DrWhofanno23142536 May 20th, 2011
Whoh,Anthony Harding, I just hope you’re right

Maybe this where a second Doctor is created that goes on the run and is the one that gets killed in episode one.

Posted by: sausage roll May 14th, 2011
i heard omega was coming back so it might be him, but i cant see how he would fit into the storyline
Posted by: Fox Mulder May 5th, 2011
I miss such alien invasions such as Rose, Aliens of London/World War 3, Bad Wolf and The Parting of the Ways, The Christmas Invasion, Army of Ghosts/Doomsday, The Last of the Timelords/The Sound of Drums, Partners of Crime, The sontaran Stratagem/The Poison Sky and lastly The Stolen Earth/Journeys End.
I Know the The Impossible Astronaught/Day of the Moon
When I say Alain invasion I mean ships in the sky countless deaths ,British gouvermen covering up and all that, I WANT ALL THAT BACK
Posted by: Dalek Sec May 7th, 2011
I like Alien Invasions aswell! But why would every being in the universe, want to just invade Earth! Moffat should make more interesting Daleks stories on 2013, I want more exterminations! I reckon the next major alien invasion should be by the Daleks, i know they’re common, and they’re the colourful Daleks but they are just sooooo interesting! Or the CIA, coverin up the existence of Silurians (not an alien species, but still awesome, i don’t care if they’re the classic series or new series style Silurian)!
Posted by: Dalek Sec May 7th, 2011
If you want alien invasions watch Torchwood!
Posted by: Fox Mulder May 5th, 2011
How long is Moffat gonna deprive us if a good old fashioned moderne day
(ie 2011) Alien invasions like in Series 1 2005 to 2008 ?
Posted by: Anonymous May 6th, 2011
“Good old fashioned”? Originally competorary stories were very rare, Moffat is taking us back to a more traditional version of the show without all the stereotypes created during the RTD era.
Posted by: Fox Mulder May 6th, 2011
I like the stereotype alien invaders, All I want to know is it the sontarans in
The Rebel Flesh/Almost People ??????????????????????????????
Posted by: Fox Mulder May 5th, 2011
Is this the Sontaran episode , I was hoping for a present day earth Invasion but we will have to see ???? Can anyone tell me if it’s the sontaran one.
Posted by: Doctor Who Star 100 May 5th, 2011
