    I’m a big fan of Doctor Who but why do people say the 12th/13th/14th Doctor is like a magician?

    Is it because of his clothes?

    I hated the episode in which Clara said she was the Doctor and the way she took over the opening titles!!

    I like magic and I also like Doctor Who so I think It’s the perfect title.

    I LOVE IT!

    the title should be “The Doctor’s Five Nights at Freddy’s” I don’t know about the cast or plot

    I totally agree, Davros needs to make a comeback!

    The title sounds like ‘The Phantom Menace’ when you say the words out loud.

    Still, I was certain the Radio Times said Jenna was just going to be in half of series 9, yet the Sun newspaper today said she’s gonna be in series 9, suggesting she will be in the whole of the next series.

    Despite anyone who hates Clara / Jenna, I like Clara and the lovely woman who plays her, but I do hope series 9 won’t be a 2nd series of ‘CLARA WHO’ which I think series 8 will be known as in years to come because it seemed to revolve around Clara rather then the Doctor.

    Time to move on Steven Moffat don’t you think, let someone new take over the role of Executive Producer now, and also, being back DAVROS for a 2nd appearance in 2015 before you leave 😀

    I shouldn,t read too much into the title. Steven moffat does this deliberately to have you second guessing.

    Moffat, after the complete Christmas shambles, this had better be half decent.

    I Know This Isn’t Completely Doctor Who Related, But Only Out Of Curiosity And Ideas, Does Anyone Know About Five Nights At Freddy’s And What It Would Be Like If Both Doctor Who And Five Nights At Freddy’s Had A Crossover, But Maybe At Halloween?

    If You Think Yes Then Tell Me What You Think The Title Should Be, Who The Cast Should Be, And What Is The Plot! 😉

    These fantasy titles are beginning to annoy me, and I like fantasy more than sci-fi most of the time. I’m fine with historical of course, but this is just… not right.

    Cos of the title it might be about the doctor being merlin as referenced in battlefield, the doctor might just ocasionly meet Arthur pen dragon and use the name Merlin. I really hope that this episode is really dark and has a very gloomy feel to it. And it would be a bit ironic if the episode started in the exact same way as I described it!

    Don’t no why but now I’ve realy got my hopes up for series 9, hopefully its gonna be better than series 8 even though to was good it just need that little extra pizazz. And I could just imagine it London early 1900s, raining, very dark low lighting and there’s a deep blue police box standing near Saint Paul’s cathedral, the doctors head pokes out to see a huge fire breathing dragon! The doctors then says “oh know, I’ll have to get Arthur, let’s just hope that he forgives me for stealing Excalibur!” The tardis materialises in a small tavern where there are several soldiers and a man sat down at a table, ” doctor is that you…. My days you’ve done it again, you’ve changed your face! The Title Credits roll! Sorry I got caught in the moment

    I don’t suppose you’ve been following the 50 year diary on drwho-online? Will Brooks has created a nice “head-canon” to explain that!
