He plays a teacher from Coal Hill School called Danny Pink. Could be interesting. I hope he's a nice character, not a wise cracker or having a love story with Clara. Just a nice new character. His promo photo looks cool.

What they need, what they need more then anything in the world, the single most important thing they have to do is MAKE CLARA LIKABLE! She's such a wooden 2D character with NOTHING going for her. We've seen more of her "home" life then the Ponds, her story is much simpler then the Ponds and we even know her "origins" as it were. But she is no where near as rounded a person as Amy Pond. Ever. In a million years. Bringing in a boyfriend is unneeded. Would have been nice to have a Jamie-esque character by the end of the series but no we get a boyfriend. Happy to be proven wrong mind you.

Apparently it is feature length as well, thinking probably 60 minutes like the Eleventh Hour. Can't wait to see it, it feels like it has been forever since Christmas! It is the only gap between Christmas and now that feels long!

Dalek talking in it. Wonder if that means we'll get Davros or the Emperor or something?

Hi there :) Posts: 1,739 Hogwarts House: Hufflepuff Who is YOUR Doctor?: 9 (Christopher Eccleston 05) Current F1 Driver?: Jenson Button	Peter Capaldi 2014 - Present Jul 7, 2014 18:44:58 GMT Post by Amanda on Jul 7, 2014 18:44:58 GMT The first five episode scripts have leaked sad news. We won't be discussing them, personally I'm not going to go looking for them. I enjoy a small rumour here or there but don't want anything more then I get so I can speculate about it. It is a shame because there had been a few tidbits here and there about the first five episodes that I wouldn't have minded talking about for the next couple weeks but now I think talk about episodes 1-5 should be kept to private messages, because the problem is there is no more spoilers that need to be taken apart and made sense of they probably came copy and pasted from a script. Something that I had read before hand and been reading quite a lot anyway is that 12 will be quite a darker Doctor. Personally (especially with his clothes) I'm hoping for more like 3. That could be fun! Especially helping Clara because she could be another Jo with the right help!

There is only one thing that was in them that I want to know but I don't mind waiting I mean it is just over a month away! Yes 3 would be great and it would be quite good with Clara and the troubles some people have with her.

Haven't seen any of the scripts, wouldn't have thhe attention span to sit and read it when we are so close to broadcast anyway.

What do you want Capaldi's Doctor to be? Grumpy old man with a heart? Grumpy old man without a heart?

Posts: 1,502	Peter Capaldi 2014 - Present Jul 27, 2014 12:17:06 GMT Post by Lucius on Jul 27, 2014 12:17:06 GMT Does anyone else hope that Series 8 and Capaldi gets slated in the media and by fans? People are so in love with him before he's even been the Doctor, he isn't the greatest actor in the world I've not liked anything I've seen him in and he was TERRIBLE in the Musketeers yet apparently he's going to be the best Doctor ever and it'll all be his doing if things change for the better. I hate the way people are talking about Matt Smith, he did a great job. I wish Capaldi sucks so they'd shut up about Eleven.

I want him to do well even if I dislike him for the same reason I want every Doctor to do well but I hate the way people seem to think that having a older Doctor will somehow make the show runners see that they should aim it at older people.

I love to talk about Doctor Who so I am a member of a few Doctor Who boards and communities.I don't want to stop going to them because I enjoy interacting with different people. Problem is I'm now starting to dislike the series more and more because of outside influences. I sit there watching it unfold in front of me and was cringing last night because I knew that "this is going to be pointed out as being better then how Matt would do it but I know Matt would have done it better" and lo and behold online everyone is pointing to that scene saying that Matt would have messed it up. Now I'm not comparing Capaldi to Smith at all but its the constant negativity to Matt's era and how Capaldi is making it so much better ONLINE by other people that put me off. That and the "its more intelligent, written for adults" crap. People seem to forget some of the real gritty and wonderful performances that Matt had just to big up Capaldi! I HAVE NEVER LIKED PETER CAPALDI AS A ACTOR!!!! Yet apparently he's 10 million times a better actor then any actor that has played the Doctor before him! Someone is even saying "four was a good Doctor but Capaldi will be better because he's a better actor." FOUR I TELL YOU GODDAMN FOUR! The fans are putting me off, added to the fact I just haven't clicked story wise with Twelve yet (and I've tried!) it is putting a big downer on the series.

Lucius Join a Fellowship... Posts: 1,502	Peter Capaldi 2014 - Present Sept 6, 2014 21:40:32 GMT Post by Lucius on Sept 6, 2014 21:40:32 GMT It gets tedious after a while. The fact that they have been doing this before Capaldi even had any screen time means that now that he is there and they are STILL doing it makes it even more annoying. I never really saw anyone saying David Tennant would make anything better, people judged Matt on his own performance and the scripts (sometimes blaming Matt for script problems or just genuinely ignoring Matt's acting.) I'm not sure where the Peter Capaldi being a legend comes from. He really isn't.

There are still a few people who will come out with "Capaldi is too good for this" but there is a few more people now sitting there scratching their heads and asking since when did Peter Capaldi become a national treasure all of a sudden. I still think Matt Smith was better then David Tennant and Peter Capaldi when it comes to acting. He had such a range and showed it. I think people sometimes got too hung up or angry over the parts they disliked to notice the moments that they were yearning for were right there in front of them. I'm not saying they were wrong for disliking him, they had every right, just as I have every right to so far dislike Capaldi's Twelfth Doctor, but when people bemoan "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship" for being some dumb ass run around with no real story, drama or acting in it and then completely miss Solomon and him KILLING the Dinosaur to the Doctors subdued reaction to then Solomon threatening to RAPE the Queen... All those small moments, all those character pieces. Forgotten. Why? Because the Eleventh Doctor runs around a lot and rode on a dinosaur, he even named her and Rory's dad kept making funny jokes. Oh the horror ohhh the HORROR!!!
