Just popping my usual post about the poll. If there isn't poll by 8pm please can you alert this post using the red alert button on it, this will very quickly remind me to add the poll.

Posters had been told to "feck off" for starting multiple threads (I kid you not), and there were complaints of 'not another DW thread' from tv forum members, so out of regard for other members of the tv forum, we restricted ourselves to posting everything in the one thread, hence the speculation and everything else gets added into the single episode thread. We did request a seperate sci-fi sub forum - I myself wrote a very polite request detailing everyone's points as to the advantages of this. Unfortunately, although several of us took this approach, the request has at present time been denied. We have also been told that starting extra threads would not help the case. We have been promised that this will be looked at in the future, so at present time I'm at a bit of a loss as to how we progress this. Due to the fact that we had to be restricted to one thread, nobody really objected when people veered 'off topic' in this thread, as long as it was DW related. |

Yes, I thought 'torture' was a gross exaggeration, imho.

I think he has something there, since the choice of words in the synopsis would surely not be coincidental? Maybe Doctor #9 leaves her with Doctor #1 before going off to Boomtown? |

Now for those who used to squeeze their presents before Christmas and just had to read the last page of Agatha Christie novels to see whodunnit, the following preview's posted on the DWAS website but be warned...there are many episode spoilers therein so if you don't want to know the results, don't watch the news before Match of the Day!
