June 28th, 2014 - 3:50pmI think he said “Clara be my pal and tell me am i a good man”
Doctor, 13th
June 28th, 2014 - 3:46pmI hope they bring back the horror era and I hope the lighting isn’t like what we saw in the trailer and poster; it looks like it’s covering too much up. I also hope Doctor Who always starts at 7:00.

June 28th, 2014 - 2:54pmI hope that there’s a lot of mysterious things in the first episode,like the dick pond and that,also things that make no sense and make sense like years later,then also a story arc of some kind like the cracks

June 28th, 2014 - 2:03pmHope this series is darker and brings death back to doctor who because to be honest the last time we actually saw the Daleks properly exterminate someone was in 2010 in victory of the Daleks

June 28th, 2014 - 11:05amMe too, I’m all for it being a family show but there are adults as well as children in a family and a lot of season 7 looked as though it had been made for CBBC not BBC . Hopefully with Peter Capaldi the stories will be aimed at the whole family not just the children

June 28th, 2014 - 9:28amI think it might be an hour because Matt smiths first episode ‘the eleventh hour’was about 1 hour and 5 minutes.

June 28th, 2014 - 9:17amWhen they say that Deep Breath is a feature length episode, how long will it be because I guess it will be longer then 45mins?

June 28th, 2014 - 9:14amWe are defiantly heading in a much darker direction… Much, much darker…

June 28th, 2014 - 8:24amThat’s were it’s failing, DOCTOR WHO ONE. I still think of Doctor Who as a show aimed at teenagers and adults. I wouldn’t call some of the more violent classic stories like Vengance on Varos and Attack of the Cybermen as a show aimed at family viewing.
And everyone, I’m really sorry but I have to voice my true opinion on this new teaser trailer. I think it looks like a soap opera. And the title of the episode really is a dissapointment. They must have really thought about that, not.
Sorry if no one on this site likes it, but these are my opinions, and I will stick with them until the 23rd of August.

June 28th, 2014 - 6:38amI agree, it’s become too much of a kids show of late.
