That 'Doctor Who' cliffhanger moment

Published Sunday, Jun 29 2008, 09:58 BST | By Neil Wilkes | 91 comments
In case you missed it - or, as is more likely the case, just want to watch it again - here's the ridiculously cliffhangerish cliffhanger ending from last night's Doctor Who.



We can't possibly be getting a new Doctor. Can we?

More Who news later this week.

What did you think of the cliffhanger ending? If David Tennant goes, who would make a good replacement? Click the link below to add your comments!

david tennant has a contract till 2010 but he is working in the global theatre next year so they are only going to have 4 specails

You could replace the brown suited David Tennant? Maybe the blue suited David Tennant grown from the Doctor's hand! If the doc has enough regeneration energy left after a few hours to regrow a chopped off hand, perhaps an in-progress regeneration can grow a new doctor from an old hand :)

There are pictures of DT on the net filming the xmas special with David Morrisery who some have touted as being the new doctor. Threefold man... 2 DTs and a new one??..

ADRIAN LESTER FOR THE NEXT DOCTOR!

After the farce of Christopher Ecclestone's leaked departure, I'm sure that the production team wanted to keep a tight lid on DT's departure. It was known that DT would be doing his Shakespear thing next year so the Specials were announced with a full series the year after. This might be true, but it might not, if they wanted to keep DT's departure secret then the specials would be a good cover. For all we know there might even be a full season next year with a new Doctor. As for DT's appearance in the Christmas special, he may be in it, he may not. All we know is that he turned up to a closed set, we don't know if he filmed any scenes. It might just be part of the rouse. The only way to be sure is to watch on Saturday, I know that nothing will get me away from the telly until it's over.

Well, I do not want David Tennant to go, I would like/love to see something happen with the doctor and rose b4 he goes at least he hasn't gone already. =[

I too think the hand will play a key part, as will the doctors 'daughter' and the machine that spawned her.......
Mark & J, Clapham, on June 30th, 2008
Because the woman from the library IS him in the future or is maybe the next Doctor regenerate....
Dave Ross, Bransholme, on June 30th, 2008
It would really anger me if Russell T. Davies has simply put this week's regeneration in to boost ratings for next week. In my opinion Tennant won't regenerate. It's obvious that Rose doesn't want him to and I believe that the Doctor's love for her will some how prevent him into completing his transformation. However, if there is to be a new Doctor then I think Alan Davis could be a candidate (he was only discussing it just the other night on Graham Norton) or Rupert-Penry Jones who is leaving Spooks next season and is a chum of RTD after working with him on 'Casanova.'

Which episode does it tell u that the Doctor only has 3 regenerations left?
Hazel, Amersham, on June 30th, 2008
he cant be regenerating! if he is, how does the woman from the libary know him???
Nicola, Portsmouth, on June 30th, 2008
I dont want david to leave i think he makes a great doctor.. I still have it in my head hes not going and they going to twist it, if he was going to leave we would have seen people filming the new actor. David Morrissey has been filmed taking part with david tennant for the christmas special so i can't see how he can leave if he's still filming more
Ozz Green, Reading, on June 30th, 2008
I Would Make A Good Replacement!!! (Oh yeah? And how? -Neil)
Kevin, Southend, on June 30th, 2008
Everyone has seen the new doctor already in full costume, filming the Xmas special. Its David Morrisey, DT was there for the day to fool us all. Check out the pictures online.
Nick, Worcester, on June 30th, 2008
I don't think he's leaving, what with the hansd and the time pocket and Rose being there, but I think he should. After all it's not the Davis T show, it's Dr Who. Fresh blood id needed before it gets tired (like it did before). Rhys Efans would be good...
Rebecca, Belper, on June 30th, 2008
I don't think that David Tennant is leaving. I have heard that he has filmed the Christmas special, so I would doubt that this is the end for DT. I think the hand will have something to do with it, however I am looking forward to next episode. I loved it when the Doctor and Rose were running towards each other. They both looked so happy. Damn Daleks. I am primed for next Saturday.
Lainey, Dublin, on June 30th, 2008
No way is DT leaving! Fantastic viewing though and no trailers were shown of next weeks show because DT is there!!!
Iain Wiseman, New Zealand, on June 30th, 2008
I hope but dont think it is... Time goes backward for the doctor for the specials and Christopher Eccleston takes over after which we get David Tennant back. Just make sure that Steven Moffet does some more writing as soon as possible
Phil, Northants, on June 30th, 2008
Whether or not he's going to regenerate in the next ep, I reckon Anthony Head would make a great Doctor when the time comes!
Alex, Newport, on June 30th, 2008
@Miss in South Wales - I thought that's what I saw but I wasn't too sure. Guess I was right then, bunch of muppets editing the show obviously NOT from Wales!
