[li]Who was the bride at the end? How did she get into the TARDIS? What’s going on?QUOTE][/li]
The bride was played by Catherine Tate, the star of a British TV comedy sketch show. There’s a profile of her in the Times of London online edition of December 23, 2006 at http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2088-2483739.html
Here’s a quote from the article: “… the last episode of the 2006 series of Doctor Who, in which Tate appeared as Donna, a woman in a wedding dress who suddenly materialised in the Tardis. In the Christmas special called The Runaway Bride, the Tardis races to get her to the church on time.”
Certainly not, seeing as how void goo doesn’t, you know, actually exist. It still makes little sense that void goo would adhere to Daleks who weren’t directly exposed to it.
Depends on which version of Cyberman (and there were hommages to earlier versions when the cybermen came through the plastic in the room that was “under construction”). However, these looked vulnerable to grenade launchers. Probably a tank gun would do the job, and maybe armor piercing bullets (though, if you assume the soldiers were smart enough to use them, evidently not).
Of course, the real problem is that there are so many of them. Even if you bring down some, more would continue to advance and overwhelm your position.
Oh, and it’s clear that Sci-fi cut at least one scene from the show: we never saw Jackie escape from the cybermen.
Maybe void goo can seep inside the Ark and adhere to those Daleks, or maybe it can’t. Neither explanation can be definitely proven. But since the notion that void goo can seep inside the Ark avoids a plot hole that the other explanation creates, I’m going to choose seepage.
Man, it’s not every day you see a sentence like that…
OK, seepage it is. Now for your next fanwank, explain how the Void, which is defined as absolute nothingness, can leave residue. What’s the residue of nothing?
The Void, as we all know, separates parallel dimensions. But tiny flecks of those dimensions come off, much like the paint from an old Corvair. The sum of all those tiny flecks is void goo.
Actually, it’s a foolish consistency that’s the hobgoblin of little minds. Emerson, so far as I know, did not believe that expecting a one-hour television program to maintain its internal logic for the entire hour was a bad thing.
Personally, I love the speculation. My take is that the Void is sort of like the inside of a bubble, and you get the goo by what keeps it in and the dimensions apart. The goo is like neutrinos, goes through everything.
Yeah, and the transition from The Doctor’s white flag surrender to The Doctor’s meeting up with Rose and Mickey in the Dalek room was quite abrupt.
I assume what happened was The Doctor told the Cybermen he could get them in to the Dalek Room to attack them if they would cooperate with him and his friends from alternate earth. But I’m not sure that’s what happened. As the episode aired on Sci Fi, the issue is not addressed. Was there a deleted scene?
Exactly. And a trivial point that has little bearing on the story is about as foolish a consistency I can think of, especially since it was completely unimportant to the real story (which wasn’t about Daleks and Cybermen, but about the Doctor and Rose).
The show says: if you go between the worlds, you get sucked into the void when it’s opened. The Daleks went between the worlds, so they get sucked in. That’s a consistent plot point.
But when you say, “wait a minute,” and come up with a scenario that’s outside what was stated, based upon your own assumptions as to how things were set up, then it’s foolish, and shows a total lack of any imagination whatsoever. If you don’t have every little point explained to you, you cannot conceive that it might be possible.
But if you want to play the nitpicking game, consider this to ease your little mind:
Rose was affected by the link. Yet the only time she traveled in the void, it was in the Tardis.
The ark was just a Tardis with a very good lock on the door.
If you want to argue they were in stasis, then clearly the void could work within a stasis field.
If you had any imagination, you could have come up with this, or dozens of other scenarios to easy your little mind.
The “flaw” is in you, not in the show. I feel very sorry for you.
