Journey's End synopsis

Eek! I don't want it to end... ah well, here are some goodies for you.

Journey's End

The entire universe is in danger as the Daleks activate their masterplan. The Doctor is helpless, and even the Tardis faces destruction. The only hope lies with the Doctor's secret army of companions – but as they join forces to battle Davros himself, the prophecy declares that one of them will die.

And here's an Ultimate (yes, with a capital "U") squee picture, if your into that kinda thing. If not, then its still very very cool.

That's the real Time Team!

PLUS just letting you know, the Stolen Earth page has been updated and its got even more spoilery goodness and pretty pictures.

Hooray!

    Ooooh - outlandish theory. It's not the Doctor's body under that red blanket - it's Pete! Cannot ascertain why he would have a sonic screwdriver, but he could have worked out that he needed to come back to stop the Racnoss given that the Doc had somehow be removed. I mean why else would they just show you an arm and not his face? Got to be something to mislead people watching that he has died whereas in fact he hasn't.....

    If Pete did die, Rose will kick some serious tail

    PPS - Dalek's "Master"plan (hint?) and also have you noticed on teh BBC website, when you click through to this week's episode, Donna has a totally different (short and redder) haircut. I assume this is Donna's alternate self had she not made a certain decision, but odd that she is not like that in the trailer

    ReplyDelete
  7. Does Donna have different hair? Its tied up, thats all... and I really do think its the Doctor that's dead, not Pete.

    There's never been any conformation that Pete was returning, only someone in a photo that vaguely looks like him, so he might not make an appearance.

    Then again, he might, but they can't fit everyone into the promo shoot, it would be far to crowded!

    Huh?! It's definitely different!! It's brown (and long) in the picture when you first hit the Doctor Who site, then it's a very bright red (and short or tied up) when you click through to the Turn Left episode - look again

    ReplyDelete
  9. The main reason Pete is not in the picture, because I'm pretty sure we'll see him is because he's stuck in the other dimension Rose, Mickey and Jackie came back because they weren't in there right timeline.
    At least that's what I think.

    I guess if Pete, Gwen, Ianto, Luke, Maria or Clyde are making any sort of appearance, they're getting way smaller roles than the rest. But I suppose we already knew that.

    I think people are going to overanalyse again; just because something has an ordinary words in it, such as "master", "turn", "left", that doesn't mean that it means anything outside of the context it is said in. Not everything is an arc/reference/foreshadowing.

    Also, it does seem odd that Tom Milligan isn't involved what-so-ever. You'd think Martha's fiance would make a small appearance, just like he did in the previous finale. He's obviously hero-like material. Just my opinion though.

    We can't assume that. I'd say if anyone dies, fair enough Rose is a strong possibility, but Donna could also die. Or no-one. The other characters have been pushed back slightly, so it's a bit irrelevant for them to die. We can't guarantee Rose despite her being one of the more likely choices.

    I just noticed! The Red Dalek's plunger is a different size in all the photos of it! On the magazine cover, it's huge, on the one with the Doctor and Donna it's slightly larger than the square holding it, and in the one where it's flanked by the two odd Daleks, the plunger is smaller than the square holding it. Could this be significant?

  40. "One of them will die." Who do you guys think it'll be? Unfortunately, I think it'll be Donna. :( RTD said he could never kill Rose, so that leave her and her family out of the question. Jack and SJS both have spinoffs they must attend to, and I just have this feeling Martha will live. I dunno why, she just never really seemed like the type. What do you think?

    Doctor Who villain Davros will return to the show for the finale of the current season, it has been confirmed. It was recently rumoured that the evil creator of the Daleks, who last battled The Doctor in 1988, will be played by Julian Bleach. The actor, renowned for his stage work, recently appeared as a sinister ringmaster in the Torchwood second season episode 'From Out Of The Rain'. Davros first (more)- got this from imdb

    Prophecy, eh? Well, like many other shows did, lots of times prophecies come with fine print/loop holes/last words that dying person didn't get a chance to say/burnt page (well, you get the gist), so that in the end prophecy is fulfilled, but no one dies.

    Although, it's RTD, so he might fulfill the prophecy, given how many things do point out to a very sad finale this year.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Anyone that has ever watched Buffy remember when it was prophesied that she would die, and she did...and then was resuscitated with CPR. Thus the prophesy was fulfilled, but we didn't lose the main character.

    Then again...anyone wonder if it might be Mickey or Jackie? It doesn't say that it's *got* to be either Rose, Donna, Martha or Jack.

    Don't mind me, I'm just trying to find a way where it doesn't have to be Donna, like it seems to be leading to.

    Okay, this will be longwinded so brace yourself, I’m gonna analyze what’s going on with everyone in the picture:

    SJS: Her look makes it seem like she knows what’s going on, but she has never seen it to this scale.

    Mickey: Whatever it is, I’m gonna stop it and protect people. Sounds like the good old Mickey.

    Jackie: Looks terrified, so no matter what/who it is she’s freaked. Which makes sense, unless she was on Torchwood she never saw as much as the rest. Cybermen and Daleks and horror stories from Rose/Mickey/Doctor, but she’s only seen about 4 or 5 aliens/alien spacecraft, all told.

    Rose: She looks…tired. I’m not sure why but I get this sense that she’s been dealing with whatever it is for a while, and she got really close to saving the Universe(s) but something (Davros?Master?Redalek) has shown up throw a wrench into the works. Now she’s scared about what comes next because she knows how bad it could get.

    Doctor: It doesn’t have to be like this/you don’t have to do this/there’s only 2 of us now/It’s not too late to stop/But we surrender/etc. He’s trying to stop ?Davros?Master?Redalek? peacefully, with no more bloodshed.

    Martha: You H2O me, shoot me, kill my family, my friends and try to take over my planet. I’m fine with that. But you killed Thomas. And NO ONE messes with my boyfriend. CHARGE!!! Well, maybe not exactly, but she’s ready to go. Which is awesome. I’m loving Martha in this series.

    Donna: Has either no clue what is going on or is not scared. Could really go either way.

    Jack: Okay, I have to kill you, but can I sleep with you first?

    SPECULATIONS:
    SURVIVORS: SJS, Mickey, Jackie, and Jack*
    MIGHT DIE: Rose, Martha, Donna, Jack.
    Rose, because it could be tragic and RTD wants a clean slate. I don’t think so but I’m not denying it could happen.
    Martha: In case RTD wants to be shocking or wants to kill someone that the Doctor cares about without killing Rose or Donna.
    Donna: She is prophesied to die or something, and it would make sense, but It will be a good death, I think. Glorious, and not spontaneous, going down saving the Universe(s)
    *Jack: Jack, being Jack, will die several times, but he’ll get back up again without losing stride. He’s Jack that way.

    I don’t think SJS will die because she’s got her own show. Killing Mickey might be taken as a bit racist and he’s struggling towards being cool, almost there. No reason to kill him. Jackie too old to die.

    OTHER IDEAS: Davros is the big bad for the season, but Dalek Caan, who failed/betrayed him or whatever is tortured. However, I think he sets things in motion somehow for the Red Dalek (Harriet Jones?) to attack Davros, meaning that the Doctor might have to work with the Daleks (has that ever happened?) The Master will be there somehow, but will either be killed or maybe just sitting on a roof throwing things at everyone indiscriminately, just because he’s the Master.

    Maybe he didn’t go to the end of time for some reason, because of the events of Gridlock. He could have gone somewhere/when else, if the future changed since the Doctor didn’t do his stuff in Grid Lock.

    PS: Woot, Torchwood. I wonder if we get to see who's in Season 3.

    ReplyDelete
  50. >>Killing Mickey might be taken as a bit racist<<

    God, I hope not. That would be the most pitiful complaint, ever. Yeah, that's it, RTD is SO very racist. Um...no.

    Besides, isn't Martha black too? Not saying *you're* being ridiculous, but it would be ridiculous if someone complained about racism because a black person dies, because there's also a black person who LIVES as well.

    Though, somehow...I fear you might be right. People are horribly predictable that way.

    daystardragon you had the same Idea as me analysing the looks on faces etc. Some are the same even, basically.

    Jackie looks the most scared there in that pic.
    Sarah kinda looks like she's got a familiarity to the fear (though could be me just assuming Davros/Daleks).
    Rose looks a little confused and worried.
    Martha looks like she wants a closer look while still cautious.
    Micky looks like he's been caught by the cops with his dodgy gloves on and a giant diamond in his hand.
    Jack's probably thinking... I'm going to die so many times today, oh boy. Lets get this started then.
    While Donna over there is kinda, "get out" but no less or more surprised or afraid than usual.
    With The Doctor I can just hear him saying "wait, just wait" "you don't have to do this" and that sort of thing. While holding off Jack there with that one had, down boy lol.

    And I had written this completely before seeing daystardragon's comment. The Doctor's pose just has to be his pose for those lines. I love Tennant's repeating lines like "stop it, just stop it", "wait, just wait", "don't do that, no don't" etc.

    Also Dalek's Master Plan happens to be the name of the serial which was the first time a companion ever died on Doctor Who. Coincidence of wording there I think not. Does it mean it is a clever hint or the like, maybe or maybe not. Might just be their way of making us speculate.

    In the classic series when ever a dalek was needed for publicity they just threw togeather various different parts of different daleks (there were different styles through-out the series) and thus they all became mismatched. We could be having this again eg:

    I guess you're right Rossy. Actually, now that I think about it, if they cared about the details of all the props, then the prop used in Evolution of the Daleks that was supposed to be Dalek Caan would not have had Dalek Thay's . . . or Jast's. I'm going by how they were in Doomsday, because they got switched in the Series 3 Dalek 2-parter. And I must say that a lot of you guys have some great ideas for interpreting the picture.

  55. "SURVIVORS: SJS, Mickey, Jackie, and Jack*

    I think you're mostly right, but considering Martha and Mickey are both supposed to join Torchwood, they'll both live. And I think Donna loses her memory (although she might die and somehow be brought back). I'm expecting Rose to die, so I can be pleasantly surprised if she doesn't!

    No, not really because if Jack was the one to die, there wouldn't be the same amount of publicity and hoo har about one of the companions dying. Jack dying is an everyday event, like brushing your teeth or something. Whereas Rose dying for instance isn't, and so it deserves more coverage and hoo har.

    ReplyDelete
  71. AnonymousJune 21, 2008

    @ n.t.
    There's a double problem here. The TARDIS broke down in Pete's World due to its incompatibility with the parallel universe. Given that a psychic link exists between the Doctor and his TARDIS, my guess is that he's equally incompatible - which kinda handicaps him as a Time Lord.
    However, I'm still not sure as to how Pete's World relates to the regular universe. Did it diverge somewhere in the past? Was it completely autonomous from the beginning? The Time War might have spanned a multiverse rather than just one universe, but this is just speculation about wibbly wobbliness. RTD probably wouldn't (and won't) tell us anything about the series' cosmology, 'cos it's all just a patchwork sewn from retcon on retcon.

  75. Someone told me that the Doctor, to save the world, has to somehow (I have no idea how) make everyone lose their memory of him and send them all back where they came from (Rose - parallel universe, Jack - Torchwood etc) If this happened it would be so sad!
    Im not sure about sending people back to be honest, but I think that some people will use their memory of the Doctor... However, I don't see how Rose wouldn't travel with the Doctor unless she was forced not to... Maybe she is sent back to her parallel universe somehow... or she could be the companion for 2009-2010! Who knows??
