Good luck! XP

Having been set a challenge by Pat Sissons (See: Doctor Who should stop spoiling himself) to decipher the plot of Doctor Who’s next episode based on one viewing of last week’s trailer: I have concluded it is harder than it looks.

But my original problem is that having seen various clips in the trailer, the surprise and possible tension will be spolied as I’ll be able to join the dots while the adventure unfolds.

So if you don’t want to even think about the next episode look away now!

SPOILERS BELOW

The Doctor receives a Light Box and believes it to contain a message from a Time Lord.

It doesn’t. It is actually sent by a group of people who believe they are on the back of a being or machine.

In reality they are slaves to a strange beast who thinks he’s a Time Lord.

Trouble is he’s trapped! Trapped in a stolen Tardis that he doesn’t know how to operate properly.

He/it probably found the Tardis after the Doctor’s death which we witnessed in the first episode of the new series.

The Light Boxes are randomly sent out through time and space, like messages in bottles, to entice the Doctor to the trapped ‘Time Lord’ and release him from this prison.

(Or, he could be a person the Time Lords locked up and forgot about)

Take your pick Pat.

For all things Dr Who visit the BBC’s Official site

When Steven Moffat calls people “twits” for spoiling forthcoming episodes of Dr Who I have to agree.
Doctor Who writer Steven Moffat angry with fans who lost the plot? (BBC NEWS )

The first two episodes of this new series were excellent. In fact they had me scratching my head wondering exactly what was going to happen, which is quite rare. So I’m glad these ’spoilers’ hadn’t reached my ears before the show began.

But my trouble with Dr Who is that at the end of every episode they tease what is going to happen in next week’s adventure. I can’t watch these. They reveal to much and I have to switch channels immediately.

With the amount of plot detail they let out anyone with imagination can easily fill in the gaps and form a pretty good opinion of what is around the corner for the erstwhile Doctor and his companions.

So if you want to stop others spoiling your stories… start by stop doing it yourself.
