Pop quiz for my fellow Whovians. In Jack's last main story arc before Doctor Donna and the end of Tennant, when he runs off from the Doctor towards Torchwood he talked about being called "The Face of Boe" from his homeland. Obviously everyone got the reference, but they never in Torchwood or Who, confirmed if Harkness was The Face. Thoughts?

I don't think they ever mentioned it. It was just a passing comment. Cool though.

I sent that to my ex. She's still picking her jaw up.

Has 'Last Christmas' aired in the US yet? I'd rather not spoil the episode for those whom have not yet watched.

I'm so far behind I'm waiting for Netflix to catch up but my friends were talking about it so I'm guessing it did air here already. Since I'm the only one behind, you mind using the spoiler tag till I catch up in a couple weeks? I got spoiled as to who Missy was but I'm still in the dark about Clara and would like to see.

Since I'm the only one behind, you mind using the spoiler tag till I catch up in a couple weeks? I got spoiled as to who Missy was but I'm still in the dark about Clara and would like to see. Sure, I have no problem with that, and I ask that anyone else deciding to discuss this episode does the same. Okay I gave this episode a rewatch today, and I give it a 8/10. A pretty good episode that kept me excited.
I'm so glad that The Doctor is finally once again portrayed as he should always be. I honestly don't know why anyone thought it would be a good idea to purposefully turn The Doctor into an uncaring, cruel and cowardly character. The Doctor is supposed to be the hero, so he should always be portrayed as such. Throughout Series 8 up until the finale he was portrayed as being cruel and cowardly. However the finale was the first step back in the right direction, and 'Last Christmas' certainly cemented the right path. The Doctor was portrayed as warm, immensely caring (example being the dream scene with old Clara) and funny (example being the reindeer driving scene). Two crucial traits that I feel were missing from the majority of Series 8.
I am beyond happy that we get at least another full series with Clara Oswald. Half an hour after my rewatch, I am still on an emotional high, just over the moon that the brilliant and immensely talented Jenna Coleman decided to stay on for Series 9.

I thought this was an ace Christmas special. Kicked the arse off last years.
Incidental Santas - awesome Fake flash forward - awesome Residual Clara - awesome

To be honest, I think the last 3 Christmas Specials have all been strong. 'The Snowmen', 'The Time Of The Doctor' and 'Last Christmas - all great. Hopefully the 2015 Christmas Special continues that streak, but that's far too far in the future. For now lets talk about Series 9, considering filmed began yesterday! Can't wait for the first filming photos.

Yeah, I thought this Christmas special was pretty well done!
It felt like a mix of "The Thing" (which I LOVE OF COURSE!) and "Inception"... but with it's own Doctor twists!
So happy Clara is sticking around; once they finally starting giving her stuff to ACTUALLY do this season, I thought she's become a GREAT companion.

With the heavy loss of BBC shows to Netflix I present to you what, I think, was a picture of the most well written scene of the entire new series. Really makes me hate Moffatt for not giving Smith a REAL sendoff. Got that sneeze gen. Meh.
I'll leave you all to sob.

Perfect send off for him.

Have you started Season 8 yet or did you just finish Season 7?

Everything I know about Doctor Who, I have learned from my three year old. He is obsessed. He watches all incarnations of The Doctor on hulu and has a fair figure collection. He really loves the 5 inch figures so if anyone knows where to get them cheap let me know. They don't have to be in perfect condition considering they're going to be played with by a 3 year old (4 in May).
