Build Site: Gallifrey Blackhole Shipyard. Type 40. Build date: 1963. Authorised for use by qualified Time Lords only by the Shadow Proclamation. Misuse or theft of any TARDIS will result in extreme penalties and permanent exile."
    Yeah, that's a nice touch. Of course the "extreme penalties and permanent exile" part of that the Doctor's already been through by forced regeneration and exile to Earth for 3-years. He might have been on Earth longer if not for Omega showing up threatening to take out the Time Lords and...well...everything really.

Obviously Hartnell is long gone, but wouldn't it be magnificent if they could use some sort of clever CG and make up to bring him back for an episode with 11! I doubt it, but still.
    I'm definitely all for the Doctor to meet himself again. With Time Crash explaining the reason why his fifth incarnation looked older than how he originally appeared, the doors been left open to include aged versions of the Doctor's fourth, sixth, seventh, and eighth incarnations in any future story.

    Time travel into Gallifrey's past isn't allowed. It all has to be relative to the Doctor so if they did show a younger version of the Doctor's first incarnation I'd want it to be in a flashback sequence. On the other hand I'd maybe prefer it if they didn't do that. I'd rather not know everything about who the Doctor is because there's a massive question mark about just how influential a figure the Doctor was on Gallifrey before he left because he was "bored". Some questions are better left unanswered...and "Doctor who?" is definitely one of them.

      Oh, yes of course. I hadn't thought of that.

      I agree, but it looks as though we'll be learning much more about the Doctor, specifically his name

        He needn't meet himself on Gallifrey. I mean granted he was traveling with susan as an old man but it's unknown whether he stole the TARDIS at the same time as Susan went with him or whether he picked up Susan later on.
        Please do me a huge favour and help me be with the love of my life.

          True...but I think that popular belief is that the Doctor did leave Gallifrey with Susan.

            I've never really bought that cos he always seemed to know way too much about the universe and other planets for a greenhorn. Not as much as later on of course. there was still a certain amount of child like innocence about the 1st Doctor.

              So Amy said Rory (Sp?) died without her ever telling him she loved him? Really? They were supposed to get married in less than 24 hours and she has never told him she loved him, I find that odd. I like Amy a lot, but Rory is a little too much of an overconfident dull knife.

              That being said the episode was fun, do we think the Dream Lord was really just the doctors dark side? I'll read back through comments.

                I love the way it starts snowing in the earlier scenes and the actors just carry on as if it's invisible.

                    I liked this episode aswell. Nice one-liners, and a pretty good theme all up. It's not the best - still worth watching but i think that he concept didnt really bring doctor who to justice. I mean,if this was your first time watching it, you might not want to watch the next one.
                    PSDid anyne spot any cracks in time in this episode? I didnt spot on in Vamps of Venice either...

                      I think in Vampires in Venice it was the silence falling as they entered the TARDIS at the end that was the season arc 'moment', as well as the mention of the crack when the Saturnynian was talking. As for Amy's Choice...I can't honestly remember anything significant, but then I only watched it a couple of times.
                      And now it's time for one last bow, like all your other selves. Eleven's hour is over now... the clock is striking Twelve's.

                              I find it interesting that after all the good the Doctor has done, deep down inside, he still hates himself. I wonder when he'll stop looking at himself as the destroyer of races and instead start seeing the truth (at least from another show ): Some must be sacrificed, if all are to be saved. For the universe to continue, to survive and grow, the Daleks and the Time Lords simply had to go and he was the instrument of that action. When will he start seeing the good in himself? I thought he was done with this self-loathing angst.
