You could definitely hear a Dalek death ray in the trailer for the NYD episode.

The BBC have said there won't be another series until 2020.

Fandom breathes a blessed sigh of relief. A year's reprieve from this humiliation.

But if she has a three year run and this ends up the norm it will be six years before we get rid of her! Would rather she's gone in three or even better 12 is her last.

Rumour hath that it will be for both her and Chinballs.

But I'm past caring, frankly. New Who has jumped the shark big time, and it ain't coming back from it after this.

You've got that wrong.

The BBC said that there won't be a new series until 2189. Check The Daily Telegraph.

A three year run? That's good as it means one of those years will be a gap year so she'll only do two actual series.
