lol no doubt it'll be abit anti climactic for many since alot of idiots honestly want to know the doctors name despite the fact it'd be in galifrayan and thus unintelligable to humans lol

So.... that was interesting. It was also pretty good for the season end. What a surprise seeing John Hurt like that I wanted to know when The Doctor said "Not in the name of The Doctor" I was hoping that John Hurt was going to say "I'm The Valeyard". Also very clever how they used all those shots from the past series ^_^

Kinda disappointed to be honest. Clara's point was not satisfying But a Yaleyard mention? THAT was excellent. I knew... KNEW they wouldn't reveal his name. Also... is this River Song right royally fluffed up now? I mean... yeah... WHAT!?! Strax was brilliant, though. Strax spin-off petition NOW. EDIT: No, scratch that, it was brilliant... BRILLIANT... kids are going mad on Twitter as they think John Hurt is The Doctor's name Best. Thing. Ever.

Taken from Viz. It happened in May. 11 May 1963. The first episode of Doctor Who airs on BBC One. 21 minutes in, the first letter is received by the Radio Times complaining that it's not as good as it used to be.
Well it made me laugh. Noodle.

BRILLIANT... kids are going mad on Twitter as they think John Hurt is The Doctor's name Best. Thing. Ever. Ha I've seen some of the tweets mocking the idea of The Doctor's name being John Hurt. When clearly this is what it says: Personally I just want them to come out and say its Valeyard Besides they wont reveal the Doctors name until he tells River (by that i mean on screen); though at one point I thought it was Please for a second once the Tomb opened XD And yes I agree Strax and the others need a spin-off ^_^

I think thats it for river considering the actress has been cast in Arrow so will no doubt be abit to busy to show up for awhile. Rumours say john hurts doctor is the true 9th who ended the timewar but not in the doctors name...me im thinking valyard since it'd fit and im thinking they have got whats his face to come back on the sly as the 9th for the anniversary without telling anyone

That WAS River Song's final appearance. I'm annoyed since this means we'll never see those Singing Towers The John Hurt doctor is a good un... could be 8 older, could be a split regen, or could be the true 9, making Smith the 12th... leading up to The Yaleyard. The blokes been mentioned now, and I think as a plot point and not a fanboy wink. But Clara's 'reveal' as disappointment aside that was a strong finale, certainly better than The Wedding of River Song nonsense from last series. It also nicely answered The Silence storyline without them having to appear - they were the good guys all along, trying to stop The Doctor reaching Trenzalore, having his name said, opening his tomb and having The Great Intelligence cock the Universe up. And of course The Doctor set things up for humanity to kill The Silence off when seen back in Day of the Moon... genocide his specialty. Nice plotting (if not taking its time). But Jenny should have not been brought back to life, death needs to be final in this series again. 'Sorry, I've just been murdered.' Creepy and effective line.

I dont know I think River will be back again though maybe not in the way Max wants I'm sure. Theres still more of her story to tell and since its nice to know that shes still going even after her death in the Library. I haven't enjoyed a season final episode of Doctor Who in a while, not since the good old days of 10 and his "What" moments. Granted his final full season in season 4 didn't have a "what" moment but still a good end none the less. Back to my point however I didnt like how series 5 ended (though part 1 was ok), I hated series 6 all together and I skipped the first half of this season last year. I almost didnt bother but then i saw the first episode and didnt have this annoying thing in eyes and ears - and it also helped that Clara is hot So then as for John Hurt's Doctor.....Valeyard must be more of the Doctor's shame then I realized. He must be responsible for a lot of actions that the Doctor couldn't take credit for as it might tarnish his name which begs the question how terrible these events must of been if the Doctor couldn't take credit for such acts. After all the Doctor's actions haven't always been pleasant in the past but he's never not denied those actions; so what did this Doctor do that means they cant be under the Doctor's name?

Nah, Dami, that really is it for River Song. It ends her storyline perfectly tying in with the 'Silence will fall' thing. She needs to go anyway.
The scene with her jumping around the previous doctors was a missed opportunity, though...
They showed THAT cliffhanger from Dragonfire with her shouting at him from afar... I think it would have been better for her to see him, look really confused and say 'Just what the hell are you doing?' and just walk off... y'know, just for a laugh.

Yeah im pretty sure she faded away once he did the see you around thing so at least the library version is gone for good now even if moffatt somehow gets her back for another episode at some point(say if her character gets offed in arrow), but to be honest he should jsut let any leftover tales be told via comicbook and novels instead.
As for the things the doctor had done that he couldnt or dared not take credit for as the doctor...well im sure a certain timewar would have given him plenty of reasons.

It seems the show is doing its job on its REAL target audience...
Poor guys crying thinking that Smith is leaving (well, yeah he is, but not with Mr Chest Buster, yet...)

lol smith is signed up through the end of 2015 so yeah probably at least 1 more split season to go(or 2 full if bbc drops the stupid idea as they really should), kinda funny the amount of silly kids thinking the doctors name is john hurt online aswell
