Isn't the idea that the captain's son would keep him in moral check?Generic Gamer said:"I give self-confessed murderous pirates spacecraft. Murder is cool."
Considering how the entire schtick of Doctor Who is supposed to be time travel and causality I'm having real trouble with the Doctor's morality these last few episodes.
As opposed to Tennant's Doctor where other gave their lives for him. Jenny, Luke, Harriot Jones, Jack (technically), Martha (attempted to and failed), The Face of Boe, River Song, Astrid, Chantho, Dalek Sec, Jabe, Pete Tyler, Lynda, Mrs Moore.....Generic Gamer said:I just think the Doctor works better when he's working for the greater good. One has to wonder how many people will die just because the Doctor was sentimental. besides which, the rest of the crew are pirates who had no lesson to learn. Why would they stop piracy for no reason? As I say, I know this is really a kids show now but it's just not great on the Doctor's part.TimeLord said:And yet, the Doctor allowed the Captain to stay so his kid would not die back on their old ship. This way the kid would live and get to stay with his father. Ok so he may never be able to leave the ship but it was his fathers choice.
Tom Baker's dead though, so I doubt he'll make a cameo :L as cool as that'd be.tomtom94 said:Too many plot points and story arcs, my brain is in danger of asploding. Maybe next week one of them will be explained!
Don't know how true this is but both my parents pointed out that the big booming voice in the trailer sounds like Tom Baker...
They do seem to have a rather severe evolutionary susceptibility to being possessed.Wes1180 said:It's nice to see the ood back again next week, although this time they are being possessed by the colour green ;D
I think the Doctor really should look into that.Scrubiii said:They do seem to have a rather severe evolutionary susceptibility to being possessed.Wes1180 said:It's nice to see the ood back again next week, although this time they are being possessed by the colour green ;D
Think he might say doctor-donna friends oh wait...

Tom Baker isn't dead, he spoke about Elizabeth Sladen's death literally 3 weeks agoUrsus Buckler said:Tom Baker's dead though, so I doubt he'll make a cameo :L as cool as that'd be.tomtom94 said:Too many plot points and story arcs, my brain is in danger of asploding.

and I'm getting sick of Rory rapidly. The amount of times that he's died, and then come back... stop dicking around and just do it.

I'm putting money on there being a living time lady rather then a time lord, think back to season 4.TimeLord said:"Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?"
Interesting. Another appearance by that strange face with an eyepatch in the wall.
Decent episode, nothing really mind blowing though. Pirates are cool.
I did think for a second they'd killed off Rory!
Next week looks VERY interesting though!

Based on the trailer for next week, I'm thinking it is a female Time Lord.Clarkarius said:I'm putting money on there being a living time lady rather then a time lord, think back to season 4.TimeLord said:"Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?"

Did not see that. Must rewatch now!Cookiegerard said:I loved how the aliens that died from human bacteria had letters from the human language on their suits..
To be fair, we only saw them piloting the ship for a few seconds. They probably did manage to fly into the sun a few minutes later.TimeLord said:Also, how long can technologically inept pirates last in deep space without crashing into a sun, really?
Did it say/mean anything in particular, or was it just a pan-dimensional version of the Chinese symbol tattoo?Cookiegerard said:I loved how the aliens that died from human bacteria had letters from the human language on their suits..
Your assessment of the next episode is just how I worded it - beast.That Guy Who Phails said:Underwhelming, but good.
Next episode looks beast however.
