Here it comes...

I see in the new TV listings thing that one of the actors in the next episode claims his character is going to make the Doctor "understandably jealous" by trying to put the moves on Rose.

This could be the deal-breaker. I have known the Doctor almost all my life and never known him to be prone to jealousy, certainly not of a companion. If he's jealous, as far as I'm concerned, he's not a Time Lord and certainly not the Doctor.

It may of course be that the guy is just making noises to fill column space. We shall see.

Edited to add: He was.

How does this spoil me?

[zanda-myrande.livejournal.com]

I don't know that it does, but there are those who prefer to approach a thing without any prior knowledge at all, and it would spoil them. People have different levels of spoiler tolerance (mine is about as high as you can get) and so I prefer not to risk upsetting anyone.

You do realized that *I'm* DW, right? ;)

[pbristow.livejournal.com]

OK, that right there is *MAJOR* spoiler! =;o>

[zanda-myrande.livejournal.com]

ACK. Gods, I'm slow. Sorry, guys...

I don't think this is a spoiler for the DiscWorld at all *g*...

(Uncle Sir Pterry writing a Doctor Who / Discworld crossover script would be interesting...)

"With this machine I can travel anywhere in Time and Space!"

"Oook?" *

Pratchett writing Who/Discworld?

Good God NO!

But a Robert Rankin Who/Brentford crossover, now that would rock...

Skipped this post when I saw the "possible Spoiler alert" But came back after watching DW last night. I think we just saw episode four.

If the actor you're talking about is the one who plays Micky (or should that be Ricky?) then I suspect the Doctor won't notice a thing. Personally I think Micky needs to grow up a little before he's a good match for Rose. Although having her missing for a year might have started that process.

So I need to figure something out. we just saw Episode 4. (I double checked that part) here in Canada. You guys saw Episode 5? On Saturday? So we are 10 days behind?

[zanda-myrande.livejournal.com]

Yes, we saw ep 5 last Saturday. The one I'm talking about is ep 6. Eagerly awaited for other reasons (e.g. when it's done we can be spared the interminable, infantile "stairs" jokes...)
