    Well from the trailers seen so far it seems obvious to me (although I will probably be proved wrong :)) that at some stage in the next 2 episodes the infamous 'reset button' is going to have to be used.

    Think about it - we see the Daleks attacking earth 'War of the Worlds' style - the earth and other planets stolen and taken somewhere - and maybe a companion dying - so even when the Daleks get defeated you will need a reset to put everthing right. I cant see a way to avoid this.

    So all those 'reset button' complainers - might as well get your reviews written early. :D

    I read (on a Swansea City message board of all places!) that the Doctor would break his golden rule about not changing the past to save someone (Donna?).

    Most of what was said in that link has come true, though not all, so Who knows?

    Okay, he fought in the time war and everyone died. He found hope with Rose and she was taken from him, Martha left him and we dont REALLY know whats happening to Donna

    Surely though if he keeps messing up his companions lives, he'd give up? I mean, i never want him to, but he really should feel worse sometimes...

    guess we can only see

    teletext preview today, nothing new that we dont already know (goes without saying!). just mentions the supreme red dalek and the 'all seeing, whimsical, squid like' dalek khan (sic).

    also a bit of dialogue from Davros...
    'i have my children, Doctor, what do you have? Love?' taunts Davros'

    I just watched the trailer again and towards the end when the woman shouts, doctor come back or something like that if you pause it it shows the doctor running with like a grin on his face and then he turns to the camera and looks shocked could this be
    When he sees rose runs towards her and then gets shot - i knew RTD wouldnt let them have a proper reunion:mad::p

    What if its Rose that shoots him? Dumb idea to be sure, but every time I see those pictures, it always crosses my poor twisted mind. Blah!:p

    Probably a Dalek as rumored...

    could he be referring to Rose?

    Get them to reschedule the wedding, or be ill :D.

    Come 7 o'clock the phones will be off in my house and the curtains drawn lol. Just think though, after tonight's episode, we'll have to wait ANOTHER week and after that we'll have to wait 6 MONTHS! lol.

    Lol, if it's a good one, yes :D. If it's crap, then no. Plus this one was started over an hour, maybe 2 after episode 11 aired, not during the titles. I don't watch from the PC, I don't enjoy it when I do.

    my suggestion for what it's worth is to start a speculation thread for Journey's End instead so by the time we reach next Saturday there won't be zillions of pages to scroll through to get to the actual discussion if one is started for the actual episode.

    You can't please everyone on this forum.

    If you start the episode thread before Saturday, you get people moaning about it being too early.

    If you start the episode thread on the Saturday, you have multiple threads discussing different parts of the trailer which then get slagged off for already being discussed or cluttering the board.

    and

    If you start two threads, the speculation one and the episode one, you get people saying there doesn't need to be two threads.

    It makes more sense imo to just have the episode thread early, because an episode thread is for discussion of an episode, and speculation is discussion of an episode.

    Anyway, we'll see what happens. This week wasn't too much trouble, the thread is only 4 pages long, despite being about a finale episode and started a week before. The maximum it'll be before the show is 6 pages.

    If discussing when the episode is on, you just click forward to the most recent page, during the episode, and if discussing when the episode has finished just click forward to the most recent page after the episode has finished, simple enough.

    if you or someone else puts speculation in the thread title then people can differentiate between that and the actual episode one which can be started on the day of transmission.

    as I said it was just a suggestion. no offence was meant or intended Sid.

    None taken, I'd rather you post a suggestion and be constructive than post an insult and be destructive.
