: Or in the future. "It's the classic Bad Wolf scenario." ;) You did notice the "[[Hungry Like the Wolf]]" reference in ''[[Cold War (TV story)|Cold War]]''? They may be throwing away the problems between the TARDIS and Clara, I mean, she did let her in for the ride, and the Doctor said she was like a cat, buuuuuut.... I hope not. I hope the TARDIS dislikes her because of whatever she is going to do in the future. | : Or in the future.

: In any case, and speaking of non-narrative information, as much as I'd like one, Barrowman announced that he won't be in the anniversary special, and he's villianing in another franchise, isn't he? Man, I'd love to see him make a surprise appearance, but it ''will'' be a surprise to me. With the reveal that The Doctor's Name will be the last episode, it seems like they'll settle [[Trenzalore]] before finishing up with Clara's mystery. And maybe that's as it should be - if she really is the '''only''' mystery that interests the Doctor right now, we need his interest to be rekindled before the mystery drops out of her. --[[User:ComicBookGoddess|ComicBookGoddess]] [[User talk:ComicBookGoddess|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 02:45, April 23, 2013 (UTC) | : In any case, and speaking of non-narrative information, as much as I'd like one, Barrowman announced that he won't be in the anniversary special, and he's villianing in another franchise, isn't he?

ComicBookGoddess: You're right, it could be something that's in Clara's future. The TARDIS didn't seem to have a problem with Victorian Clara but that might be because Victorian Clara's future didn't include travelling in the TARDIS -- it didn't include very much of anything, in fact. And Oswin (Futuristic Clara) never got anywhere near the TARDIS. On the basis of what we've seen so far, Modern Clara seems to be the "main" Clara. Perhaps the Facebook theory that Imamadmad pointed out (above) was right that Victorian Clara & Oswin were emissaries but wrong about whose emissaries they were. Maybe they're Modern Clara's emissaries, for some reason that we've yet to discover. That's very definitely speculation, since "what we've seen so far" ain't very much, & I'm sure there's a lot more to come. '''Any''' theory, at this stage, has to be extremely tentative. | |||
The TARDIS did let Clara in for the (very rough) ride -- but only after having used the voice interface with Clara's own image to tell her, in effect, "Yourself is the only person you'll really listen to." That's not exactly a friendly compliment. | |||
Although the Doctor said the TARDIS was like a cat, she's been much quicker to accept most of the other "strays" the Doctor has brought home (as she herself described them in ''The Doctor's Wife''). Rose Tyler may be a special case, because of the "Bad Wolf", & River another special case, because she's "a child of the TARDIS", but Martha, Donna, Amy & Rory were all accepted quite rapidly. The same goes for most, though not all, of the classic series companions. | |||
On Barrowman/Captain Jack: I've no inside information about whether or not he will appear again, let alone when. All I can go on is the knowledge that Moffat has said he wanted him for ''A Good Man Goes to War'' but the schedule didn't permit (& others have said the same) & that Captain Jack, like River, is a Moffat creation dating back to the RTD era. No matter how much Moffat might want to bring him back & no matter how much Barrowman might want to play him again in DW, it can only happen if the schedule can be made to work (as I said before), & that isn't at all guaranteed. Barrowman is, after all, in considerable demand for other things. --[[Special:Contributions/2.96.24.223|2.96.24.223]]<sup>[[User talk:2.96.24.223#top|talk to me]]</sup> 07:22, April 23, 2013 (UTC) | |||
