Dr Who - The Pandorica opens

Much speculation on the web, so before the episode tonight, here's a few links to peruse and investigate...

Doctor Who Site has found some clues as to what is to come in what has been.

Doctor Who spoilers has some scant information from filming.

Combom has some speculation and asks 'Will the season 5 cliffhanger be the Doctor is dead?'... As he says himself 'actually i am generally right :) '

tardis Wiki claims that 'Many old enemies have been confirmed to appear or be mentioned in the episode, whether there to play an enemy part is still to be confirmed. The list of enemies include the Daleks, the Cybus Cybermen, the Sontarans, the Judoon, the Slitheen, the Hoix, the Weevils, the Uvodni, the Sycorax, the Silurians, the Autons, the Roboform, the Blowfish, the Nestene, the Chelonians, the Drahvins, the Atraxi, the Zygons, the Terileptils, the Slitheen and the Draconians. '

Dr Who TV has some interesting theories but even better audience speculation, I liked these: 'Another thing I just noticed on re-watching the 11th Hour - at the end, when the Tardis dematerialises, the window immediately above the door of Amy's house (the one to the right of her actual bedroom window) is lit. And it might be nothing, but in the left-hand side of the window there is a shadow that could just be someone standing watching the Tardis go... and the sillhouette would fit the shape of the Doctor.

Also, and probably just an irrelevant coincidence, if Amy Pond is 21 in 2010, she was born in 1989 (the year the original series of Doctor Who came to an end) and was visited by the 11th Doctor at the age of seven in 1996 - the year of the Eighth Doctor movie, which was the first attempt to revive the show. His (supposedly) second visit, when she was 19 in 2008, happened in the year that Ten's final full series also came to an end - and, appropriately, the year of the first special... The Next Doctor...'

and 'Just a quick one. I heard a romour that Tom Baker was returning to the show in some way. If the series is based in an alternate universe then maybe he never regenerated. The Pandorica prisioner is Tom Bakers doctor...! That'd be so awesome....'


Digital Spy has the usual weird speculation that will help pass an hour.


Meanwhile here's the BBC trailer...

And for those who think that this episode or the next may have multiple doctors, here's the 10th & 5th Doctors from the 2008 Children In Need special...
