    Rumours are going around that the woman in the picture is a younger version of Kovarian, thus explaining in the episode why she hates the Doctor so much.

    The wooden Cyberman is really weird, but they might have a camouflage ability to hide with its surroundings.

    Lastly, Clara’s looking awesome! πŸ˜†

      She is not a younger version of Kovarian she is some other woman from the doctor’s past the BBC realised the information a while ago.

      What the BBC posted on a photo: Tasha Lem played by Orla Brady is someone from the Doctor’s past

      The soldirs are there so it might be a younger version. Still just roumours.

      It really annoys me when people don’t read posts properly. I didn’t state that that was Kovarian, I said it was a rumour! And it could be her with a different name, you don’t know that!

      The wooden cyberman kind of reminds of the wooden people in ‘the doctor the widow and the wardrobe’.
      any ideas?

      Kovarian IS in the Doctor’s past, but her future.

    WOW!
    I loved the 50th special but this looks like it could top it as my fave ep from the new series (maybe even EVER!)
    It looks FANTASTIC!
    And it seems to have even more monsters/villains than the 50th (and a few references too, such as The Doctor dressing a little like Jon Pertwee) AS WELL AS a ton of ACTION!!

      but then surly its weak cos its wood? think a weakness maybe discovered if the cybermen upgrade themselfs too much it may cancel out other upgrades they have like overloading a computer? thoughts?

    • Defender of Trenzalore

      December 7th, 2013 - 12:14pm

      The sonic not affecting wood was sorted in the 50th (partially anyway)
      Maybe it’s some type of stealth Cyberman, looking like a wood sculpture of itself for scout purposes?

    • TheExtremeBlueTARDIS

      December 7th, 2013 - 10:03pm

      The Time War Daleks are not weak! Just because you are a Paradigm Dalek fanatic doesn’t mean you have to disagree with others. Do you not think the whole Loss of Gallifrey storyline wouldn’t have happened, since YOU think those Daleks were weak? The Time Lords would’ ve won then, but they didn’t.

      I do accept change, thank you very much. I am looking forward to Capaldi’s Doctor. When introduced to the new Cybermen I thought they were awesome. But we all have opinions, disagree with somebody else’s then you aren’t being fair. I don’t like Paradigm Daleks, it’s that simple.

    • Dalek the Supreme

      December 8th, 2013 - 9:14pm

      I’m also sorry if I offended you, too, I actually like the Time War Daleks almost as much as I like the Paradigm, I’m just upset that the show had gone against it’s doctrine of change in bringing them back. I do think the two designs work well together though, and even though I will miss Matt Smith (favorite Doctor), I am glad we’ll be having an older Doctor again, and I can’t wait to see the second new Doctor of 2013 in action! πŸ˜€

      Jamie, I saw the slightly less detailed version. I suppose I’ll go with being pleasantly surprised.
      DALEKSKITTLES, maybe. They were also in The Five(ish) Doctors. And yes, in fact, they’re probably my favorite kind of Dalek, especially that Supreme! (Yeah, not a very popular choice)

      December 7th, 2013 - 10:25pm

      yer they are my favorite aswell πŸ™‚ esspically the matellic ones! i would day red drone is my fav haha but supreme is my second choice, do you think if they just had white supreme and red drone fans would be more happy with the new designs? i think people just didnt like the mixture of colours, steven moffat mnaybe just cancel out yellow eternal and orange scieentist, and leave supreme white, red drone, and blue stagist cos then its less “tellietubbies” and looks more dalek like?

      I think for some it’s the colors, for others it’s the radical departure from the traditional Dalek design, and for some it’s both. Personally I respect the brave choice to take such a radical departure, and am pleased it still is unmistakably a Dalek, along with the smoother, futuristic design coupled with a slightly more organic look. Also, I don’t mind the colors, though an orange Dalek is pushing it a bit far, in my opinion.
