nuWho prediction

Yes, we'll be watching it. It says so in SFX, so it must be true. :)

On the basis of what I've seen of the trailers and such:

Baby!Doc will crash in somebody's garden. Their little daughter comes out and talks to him, says "Can I come with you?" and he says "Five minutes, I promise." He then vanishes into the TARDIS and doesn't come out for five to ten YEARS, thus giving the little girl, who is of course Amy Pond, the chance to make him look embarrassed and guilty and hangdog because he LET HER DOWN. Because nuWho has always been all about what a rotten liar, troublemaker and all-round stupid unreliable waste of space the Doctor is. He lies to little girls, you know.

Any bets?

Maybe it'll be the last of the Doctor-hating...but I somehow doubt it.

Would it be horrible of me to say that I just want to get to the River Song eps and bypass the rest of the Baby Doctor?

Slightly more seriously, this is Moffat, not RTD, so he gets at least helf a series' grace to find his feet. I hope he does so sooner, though.

Well, since I said much the same about the Freema/Martha eps of both DW and Turchwad last year I can't criticise. And I am hoping that "the Doctors'[1] daughter" makes a reappearance (she is srsly kewt, and having her regenerate at the end of the episode was apparently Moffat's idea so he presumably Has Plans).

[1] Yes, the plural possessive is correct. She was not only "the Doctor's daughter" in the episode, but the actress is the Real Life daughter of the fifth Doctor.
