Doctor Who – The Rebel Flesh
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.

May 7th, 2011 - 4:59pmIm 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.

May 7th, 2011 - 9:16amI 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)!

May 6th, 2011 - 11:55am“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.
