That flat-out can't work - Rose is a human, not a Time Lord.

Martha took the ring off the clone, not the other way around.

Right, Martha took the ring off the clone. How did the clone get the ring in the first place...?

And I wouldn't put anything past Rusty. *g*

It took it off Martha when it took the rest of her clothes. Labcoat and all.

Hmmm, I missed that, then.

The other things that've been mentioned more than once are a) the Medusa cascade (I'd bet the bank on this being relevant) and b) all the bees disappearing on Earth. And, I mean, of course there's the whole parenthood/families theme, but that one's obvious by now.

I don't see Rose being set up to be the next Doctor - I like the reading of the "Doctor!" "Donna!" call, but I just can't quite buy it - but I do agree that Grandpa Wilf knows more than he's saying. :D

Doctor Who is the best conspiracy-theory fandom EVER!

Yes! The Medusa cascade!

It's hard to tell if the bees are significant or just a hilarious pop culture reference; either way, *I'm* freaked out about them -- where'd they all GO? Beeees?? Where are all the beeeees??

It freaks me out too! I have some pet bees (well, bees that I hang out with on my back porch) and I am always eyeing them carefully to make sure that they don't suddenly transport themselves in to an alternate universe. BEES! STAY HERE WITH US!

The Master said that the Doctor had sealed the Rift at the Medusa Cascade in The Sound of Drums or Last of the Time Lords - can't remember which. So yeah, I'm thinking that's important too.

The girlfriend and I rewound the preview after the Doctor's daughter kissed the person through the prison bars, all, "DUDE WAS SHE MAKIN' OUT WITH A GIRL?" Status: unclear. Soooo I'll be watching for potential lesbians!

Dude I know! DW girlslash goggles! Lesbian Doctor Daughter is just the sort of thing Rusty should do, but then, he's a little a-skeered of the vagina, I think. *g*

ALSO, I called you people. On the PHONE even. I am eagerly anticipating some presents, and also providing some presents for YOU. So, get yer groove on!

I TOTALLY THOUGHT THAT WAS A GIRL. In the trailer she's kissing someone, then it cuts to the Doctor's face and he looks vaguely boggled...like you half expect him to say, "that's my daughter...and she's a lesbian."

I dunno. I don't like the idea of Rose being the next doctor. She's human, and I'm not ready to give up David Tennant yet.

Oh, I don't like the idea of it either. It's actually causing great panic. It's just what I'm afraid is going to happen!

Yes! Because I discussed this with Trin, and we're both like, man, this would make us stop watching.

Thinky thoughts:

I'm thoroughly enjoying the fact that Georgia Moffett (the woman playing the Doctor's daughter) is Peter Davison's daughter. Too. Funny.

I think what's on Donna's back is a giant spider. We first met her with the whole giant spider thing, and there were Old School Who villains which were giant spiders that cling to your back and then infiltrate your brain.

We also got another clue in the Ood ep, but I've forgotten what it was; I'll go back and check.

The Ood were singing their song, and one of them says to the Doctor something like "Your song is coming to an end".

And Martha removed her engagement ring from the clone, which the Sontarans had put on the clone to fool the Doctor (and everyone else).

I *LOVED* when the Doctor sent the rocket up to set the atmosphere on fire how he crossed his fingers for luck. Oh, Ten, you are delightful.

"Are you my mummy?" BWAH. Ten makes his own fun. And his hair WILL NOT BE DEFEATED, even by the straps of a gas mask. It tried to escape in all directions at once.

*heart*

I agree with everything you said here, and that was TOTALLY the clue from the Ood! Thank you!

Well, except that I think it's Rose on Donna's back, or even more probably something regarding Wilf that we haven't learned yet.

Oh, and I think he did that thing that British people do, where he held up two fingers instead of crossing them? Or is that what you meant? I mean, for luck. It amounts to the same thing. *g*

Holding up two fingers would never happen on a kids' show - it's quite quite rude. :D He crosses his fingers - the camera moves fast from the rocket launcher up his body to his face, but it's very very clear that he crosses his fingers for luck while saying "Please please please please please".

TEN! I HEART YOU!

Also, when the Ood said "Your song is coming to an end", the soundtrack blended into the theme from Doomsday for a few measures. *chills*
