:::One thing to remember is that Midnight was written as a last-second replacement episode. On the one hand, this means RTD knew how the entire story arc was going to play out before he even started writing it. But, on the other hand, it means that whatever he designed for that episode wasn't part of any of his multi-story plans. And it means he had to rush the story, too. | :::One thing to remember is that Midnight was written as a last-second replacement episode.

But I think, even if he brought it back, he'd do the same thing, and retain the mystery to keep it scary. --[[User:Falcotron|Falcotron]] 17:59, May 8, 2010 (UTC) | :::Of course that doesn't mean that Moff couldn't bring back the Midnight entity and do whatever he wants with it.

:::Who knows maybe the 11th doctor will go back to midnight in a hopes to find out what the mysterious creature was?[[User:Berfomet|Berfomet]] 23:06, May 8, 2010 (UTC) |
