    I always hate it when people moan about the Doctor using guns saying it’s not right. It is right! He does use guns, Every incarnation has used guns and they werenโ€™t all wimpy about it like Ten was. Dear God, Ten gets on my nerves.

    The last time a companion died was 30 years ago in 1982 with the 5th Doctors annoying childish companion Adric in ‘Earthshock’.

    30 years later and so far no companion since that whinging waste of oxygen got blown up has died, and as much as I like Amy and Rory, it is time a companion should be killed off.

    Pity it couldn’t have been Martha Jones, could not stand her at all, she was bad egg of the entire 3rd series, I couldn’t wait for her to leave and get replaced by the funny Donna Noble, a much more worth and noble companion.

      I personally found nothing wrong with Adric, they (scriptwriters)just never gave him enough to do.

    This isnt spoilers, im just geussing. but i think Amy and Rory do die, but in the 2nd trailr the doctor says to River: You just changed the future! and she probily saved Amy and Rory but come back as weeping angels which was also in the trailer. Just a guess!

      That’s not the Tardis !!, it’s just windows that are part of the building that happen to be identical to the ones the Tardis has in her Police Box disguise.

    • Esterath

      September 20th, 2012 - 7:50am

      That is the TARDIS> It’s probably just been through picture 7.

    • Mr Evil Fez

      September 20th, 2012 - 8:24am

      No, the outside of the Tardis is stone in picture 12. I can see it clearly.

    • Jason doctorwhoone

      September 20th, 2012 - 3:15pm

      Guys, I’m telling you, THAT IS NOT THE TARDIS !!!!.

      Ive just taken a look at all the pictures featuring it, and she look perfectly normal in each picture.

      If your talking about the top right windows of the last picture at the very bottom with the 2 Weeping Angels, that is not the Tardis windows, but the windows of the building they are inside of, they just happen to look the same that’s all.

      They’re Amy’s reading glasses. There’s a scene where the Doctor notices Amy has glasses on. Quite touching.

    I’ve avoided ALL spoilers for this episode – in fact all of this series – so I really hope that this episode will live up to my soaring expectations. It’s written by Steven Moffat, if it’s even just on par with A Good Man Goes To War then it will be brilliant ๐Ÿ™‚

    They need to make the Weeping Angels scary again. They were scary in Blink but not in Flesh and stone and the time of angels.

    And the Doctor appears to have become The Time Lord Who Lived in the first picture. ๐Ÿ˜‰
