Well, Series 9 of NuWho nears its conclusion with what has been described as being essentially the first part in its three-episode finale. What is going to happen to the Doctor and Clara (nothing good, I suspect), and which old acquaintances of theirs will be making a reappearance? Find out in the ornithological shenanigans of Face the RavenAnd ( Read more... )

I haven't seen it yet (shan't until tomorrow) but I sure am interested. Rigsy was a favourite last year and I'm very happy to see him return. It alsobrings us closer to the 'Peter Capaldi without guest actors' episode which I am VERY excited about indeed and I'm guessing this episode will lay down the set-up for. I've got a theory it's all going to happen inside the Confession Dial and can't wait to see if that idea pans out.

Okay, so that theory is jossed, but that was an amazing episode. The memorial at the end had me in tears.

That was an excellent episode and I think it's an excellent way for Clara to exit the series; sometimes epic endings don't look epic, nor do they need to look epic. They just need to be meaningful. And Clara's death meant something.

I loved it. It was intriguing all the way through, and even with all the foreshadowing we've had, I didn't expect Clara to actually die until that scene where they were all saying that she was going to have to die. And then her goodbye with the Doctor was just wonderful.

I had to go look up the writer after the episode was over, and it's someone I've never heard of! Get her back to write more episodes!

Can't talk, still crying.

Oh, wow. I had read enough non-specific spoilers to decide that I was absolutely going to stop doing it and not read (or listen to) any fan reaction until after I'd seen it for myself. I have a bad, anxious habit of thoroughly spoiling myself so I know what I'm getting myself into. I'm glad I stopped... but kind of wish I hadn't read even the non-specific spoilers ( ... )
