So I'll just sit here and mope about the fact we don't have Netflix in South Africa and that the only legal way to watch Doctor Who in the country is to physically import DVDs or pay a US $70 subscription to a satellite company that gives you BBC South Africa which might occasionally decide to show Doctor Who at rather inconvenient times, if it feels like it.
*points up to her last post which apparently no one read* ;)

Although, since I wrote that, I heard that as part of Netflix's global expansion plans, they want to be in South Africa in the next two years. The article forgot to say, however, that they need to actually get past all South Africa's complicated (and/or outdated) laws. Also, given the general lack of interest in Doctor Who in SA, there's a pretty good chance that even when we get it, it won't have Doctor Who *facepalm*

Since series 9 is confirmed (I know it was confirmed a while ago), does anyone have any hopes/headcanons/ideas about what's going to happen?

I'm kinda hoping that they kill off Clara this season. Her story arc in series 7 was brilliant, confusing, and I thought it was really good, but after they concluded that they left no room for her character development. In series 8 she was just kinda /there/ - I don't think there's really anywhere her character can go and I think it's about time for a new companion.

Also, theory: remember how Capaldi played a character in Pompeii? Moffat confirmed that this character will relate to 12 in some way. I think that this character is actually 12 - after they kill off Clara (which they have to do eventually), I think that they might give 12 some solo episodes, like they did with 10 in the Tennant Specials. 12 goes back to Pompeii by himself for whatever reason and does some undercover investigating about some crisis or another.

I saw the trailer.

But I've kinda decided to not nitpick it. I'll just let myself be surprised when the new episodes start.

September 19th! So soon and yet so far! ^.^

...Was that Maisie Williams???
The Daleks are back! Yay! And I'm guessing that we might be seeing Clara when she was younger/a teenager or something like that.
And it airs on my birthday. What a pleasant surprise :)

All I'm going to say is...Susan? (Trying to think who else would call him "old man")

I'm assuming that Susan is a character from Classic Who...?
My initial thought was that she was a younger Clara, but I really have no idea. I haven't seen any Classic Who at all, and I really don't want to project too much, since nothing I say will change what they've already filmed. ;)
