June 26th, 2017 - 9:28amMy heart is sinking already, now I am worried about Saturdays final episode, flying Mondasian Cybermen?

June 26th, 2017 - 8:34amI do not like flying Cybermen full stop! None of the 20th century Cybermen had flying abilities, so why are the Mondasian Cybermen flying. It’s potentially rewriting Doctor Who’s history, but yet again, it’s typical Moffat.

June 26th, 2017 - 6:42amI suppose you are right, I just want to see someone pay the consequences of travelling with the Doctor, not the cop out reasons we have had under Moffat, and RTD with Rose.

June 26th, 2017 - 2:02amIf Missy killed Simm’s Master then that would create a paradox, because if he was killed by a future version of himself, then Missy would never exist, so it would pretty much cancel out the whole episode (and loads of other episodes). Missy could be a past version and come before Jon Simm but that wouldn’t really make sense since she said she escaped Gallifrey and stuff, and we saw Derek Jacobi’s regeneration into Simm, but we didn’t see Eric Robert’s Master regenerate into Jacobi’s, but that would still create a paradox, unless Missy isn’t the Master

June 25th, 2017 - 11:14pmIf she’s not a Cyberman it’s likely it’s going to be down to Chibnall wanting to keep her on, not because Moffat wanted to give her a happy ending.

June 25th, 2017 - 10:20pmI think she’ll help the Doctor defeat the Cyber army and then betray him striking the fatal blow that forces him into his regeneration cycle

June 25th, 2017 - 10:11pmMeaning Moffat keeps messing up.

June 25th, 2017 - 10:04pmI would still watch but many would also stop watching.

June 25th, 2017 - 10:02pmWell like it or not it is a fact!

June 25th, 2017 - 8:46pmI remember being terrified it would be a lady doctor when Matt Smith left but now I’m getting more used to the idea and I think I would welcome it!

June 25th, 2017 - 6:45pmWhatever.

June 25th, 2017 - 4:26pmYeah but where would je get the laser screwdriver, who’d have sonic, and is he still half life

June 25th, 2017 - 4:07pmReading some of the coments from the Facebook questions last night, Moffat seems to be hinting that Bill is not going to stay a Cyberman, if that’s the case can we have the show since Clara’s arrival in the Snowmen xmas special up until now as a dream and let Chibnall clean up the mess Moffat keeps making?
Hopefully Bill is dead/a Cyberman but I seriously doubt it and the impact it had last night will be all undone…..Again!

June 25th, 2017 - 4:04pmYes, let’s have ‘The Moonbase’ and ‘Tomb of the Cybermen’ versions, plus ‘The Wheel in Space’ versions, and ‘The Invasion’ and ‘Revenge of the Cybermen’ similar versions too.
Pats86
June 25th, 2017 - 3:56pmI wouldn’t say I’m terrified but I would be disappointed because it would cause a backlash no matter who the actress is.
It did not need to put into the the shows cannon and it clearly has caused a split among fans be it old and new, Moffat and the BBC knew this would happen but they clearly have their own agenda.

June 25th, 2017 - 3:01pmI think Missy will actually become good. At first I didn’t, but after watching these trailers, I think she is going to struggle whether to side with herself or The Doctor. Ultimately I think she’ll end up sacrficing herself to save the Doctor and everyone, by killing The Master.
Doctor Stu
June 25th, 2017 - 2:45pmIt’s weird because there’s no room for him before the end of time it has to be afterwards, maybe when he returned to gallifrey his madness died down a bit because wasn’t the drum beat in his head cancelled out when the timelords were dragged back to gallifey and the link was broken.

June 25th, 2017 - 1:16pmWould make more sense to have more than the originals and the new series ones

June 25th, 2017 - 11:34amWork fine with the right actress but it’s a gamble and there will be a backlash simply because shes a Woman.
Tim M
June 25th, 2017 - 11:24amIndeed. The 80’s Cybermen would be great to see again. They definitely shouldn’t miss out on the Cybermen’s reunion party in next Saturday’s episode.

June 25th, 2017 - 10:41amthe out cast I wish that Cybermen vs a dalack

June 25th, 2017 - 9:59amThis master must be before he half saved 10 as he isnt skeleton and refuses to stand with the doctor in the next time.
So
This means its after harold saxon as he says someones former priminister. But this cant work as he dies straight after last of the timelords and is reserected in the end of time. He clearly hasnt experienced the end of time yet otherwise hed be alot more insane and the skeleton would of been in the nexttime bit. So if its after the last of time lords and before the end of time could this mean hes revisited a face. I definetly cant be when he was priminister other wise he wouldnt of said former. Any theories. Mine is as i stated up there hes revisited a few or once he got back to gallifrey they cured him of the half life thing but why wont he stand with the doctor if he saved him. Hmmm
doctor who fan 11
June 25th, 2017 - 9:31ami’m terrified too. i have no issue with a woman being the doctor. but am worried whether it would work, and would prefer a man for traditions sake. Also felt twelfths talk with bill on genders last night meant something to do with it, but really hoping it doesn’t
Hector Sandler
June 25th, 2017 - 9:17amDoes he regenerate or Do we wait & The Christmas Special. I still terrified it might be a Woman but I got couple of actor who I favour as the next Doctor.
The Outcast
June 25th, 2017 - 2:36amNo, I think it’s implied Missy is from the far future, hence she can’t remember.
The Outcast
June 25th, 2017 - 2:35amI hope we do see the 80s Cybermen atleast as that would be…
EXCELLENT!
Dr phil
June 24th, 2017 - 10:12pmI think missy’s amnesia will have something to do with how this plays out. Maybe Simms is mind wiped at the end?
Jake
June 24th, 2017 - 9:30pmI think Missy definitely comes before The Master- she said that she didn’t remember about being on the ship, so I don’t think she’s been on the ship yet
