Ashildr: Clara's Sidekick (spoilers)

Spoilers galore in this post so this one ain't fit for fans who hate them... In the story so far which consists of the final three episodes of Series 9, we find everything comes to an end with the Doctor on Gallifrey, usurps the President who is banned from Gallifrey. I believe he is told thwt Missy was a part of their plan since the afterlife on a hard drive points to Gallifreyan technology, as does how everything began with the Bells of Saint John. Thanks to the Doctor's intervention, Adhildr is revived from a heart attack while using a helmet of the warrior species The Mire. This helmet causes visions of a dragon that frighten android warriors, which leads me to suspect that the warriors are cyborg clones. Using a Mire first aid chip, the Doctor saves Ashildr who was dead for more than 3 minutes. It is likely she suffered limited brain damage since as Me she admits to having a finite memory in a body with an infinite life, barring death by a gun or a sword. By the time the Doctor realizes the Time Lords kept him locked up in a weird castle, he comes to know he has been reliving being transported there via the teleporter's hard drive for 4.5 billions years. He has to smash his way thtough a material harder than diamond, and returns to Gallifrey which he originally hid at the end if time. Ashildr figures this out from talking to the adoctor&s fruends and enemies, and meets him and the timelooped Clara, who actualky alive thanks to being looped in time in duch a way thst her heart never beats. Thus she is immortal because her timeline loops rather than ageing linearally like everything else. In the end, the Doctor submits to being mindwiped, and finds himself at a diner that turns out to be the Tardis Me and Clara borrowed from him to get to Gallifrey the long way about. And the Doctor is stuck on earth, oblivious to Clara and Me, the DJ Doctor with a nice axe (electric guitar). I wonder if there will be a Series 10 to clear things up. Though we know the Doctor and his companion is the Hybrid that shall destroy Gallifrey. Expect Clara and Me to show up in Series 10.

The Doctor Tweaks Davros (spoilers)

There will not be a picture to go with this post since the network is wonky, thanks to me working on a tablet rather than my netbook. It has to do with how I set that tablet up. Though I would plug the notion that the Internet gods favour BBC copyright and given me WiFi issues with the tablet as karma, were I to be more dishonest...

After watching the Magician's Apprentice and the Witch's Familiar,the two part introduction that begins Series 9, I am going to ask one question: who is referenced by their titles? Yes,that is right. It is the Impossible girl, Clara Oswald. A funny thing happened before I had to write this article: I deleted the rewrite of my previous in which I waxed about her. Not that I am smitten by Clara but because I keep abreast of the news about her that shall play out in Episode 9 am I going about her at all. Since Danny Pink's death in the last two episodes of Series 8, she's gotten cocky. She has lied to the Doctor (and he, to her), and to Cybermen to delay her death; she also has played along with Missy to prevent the death of the Doctor at Davros' home planet, and even had time to explain to us late last season that batty young girls don't need meds; they need to be listened to, because they might just help find a lost family member. Heck, they might be trying to tell us that the Earth has its protectors besides the Doctor. In any case, we now know that Clara is becoming as fearless and mighty as the Doctor. Maybe that's because the death of The One changes the Lover. Catechism ought to have taught the ones who have endured it about the truth of this. As for the rest of us, Series 9 shall do just that! How do I know? Spoilers. 😉

I like Oswin Oswald the Best

There is something about a Dalek that tries so hard to maintain her sanity despite being transformed into a Dalek. From what I heard, series 9 begins with Daleks again. Spoilers prevents me from saying anything more. So I prefer Oswin because her inner world is human, so human, she manages to help the Doctor ensure his safety by having all the Daleks forget knowledge of him. My impression is that this keeps Earth safe since they cannot invade what is his home away from home. Overall, Oswald Dalek is compassionate, and willing to choose death if only to prove her sane at this point in Series 8.
