He said "No returning creatures this series", but also separately noted that NYD isn't technically part of the series. Also said "We haven't seen them yet," about Daleks -- when they still had three weeks filming (specifically on the NYD episode) to go. I think we could easily see them at New Year, tbh.
He more or less said he had no intention of using any classic Who villains or monsters this series. Granted, I guess I could see them appearing on NYD and him hand-waving it as it's not part of the actual series, as you said APZonerunner, but I definitely don't think we'll see them in the next couple of episodes. And frankly, at this point, I would be worried about his take on the Daleks and their history with the Doctor.It was when he was talking about how the Daleks had not appeared so far during filming but that he had one more episode to write. Not really guaranteed but some people took it as a hint of Daleks.
Oh fuck.
As the New Year begins, a terrifying evil is stirring, from across the centuries of Earth's history. As the Doctor, Ryan, Graham and Yaz return home, will they be able to overcome the threat to planet Earth?
I had no idea but apparently the New Years' special synopsis is already out. Doesn't sound like Daleks to me.

Hmm, I dunno. We've had Clara pretend to be the Doctor briefly with the Cybermen. We also had Jackson Lake (although he thought he was the Doctor)...
BILL: Yeah, but he's called the Doctor, so
MISSY: He says, I'm the Doctor, and they say, Doctor who? See, I'm cutting to the chase, baby. I'm streamlining. I'm saving us actual minutes.
BILL: Yeah, okay, whatever.
MISSY: Also it's his real name.
The normal people in Rosa felt more dangerous than anything else this series.
I wish the Doctor talked about her. Does she even know she died and that he (as Capaldi's Doctor) actually got through to her?
I mean, hey, it's Doctor Who. She can always return, or regenerate into a new form.
"Christmas Is Cancelled"The have a synopsis for the special but not a title
*thinking emoji*
That's a solid one. 10/10.

Actually, last month she said something along the lines of "It's possible, you never know, never say never".Didn't Michelle Gomez say she wouldn't return, or did I just make that up ?
"Across the centuries", sounds like multiple eras of Earth's past. It would be too much to hope that Team Tardis are separated through time, and have to work together, via some device, to save Earth in their relative times.
NARRATOR: She was not dead.
Any time you want to revisit Missy, just look at Green Wing, in which she is ostensibly a hospital human resources administrator but, both in text and subtext, is the quintessential Missy.
That's great news.Actually, last month she said something along the lines of "It's possible, you never know, never say never".
And then you end on a shot that reveals the Daleks were secretly behind everything and that way you can a) have the Daleks appear but b) not actually have to write them into the story properly and maybe c) pay it off in the S12 finale.
Michelle Gomez is probably tied to Sabrina for a bit. I actually prefer her character in that than Missy.
They are said to anser to 9 different didtress calls in the synopsis of 10. I think those are gonna be from the different centuries in the NYD special, and they have to get off of Ranskoor Av Kolos to answer them, or whatever. Would make the most sense.I am hoping the finale has some sort of lead in to the special like how they usually do.
Series 12 will have Daleks and another returning species, and that'll be the whole marketing push. Maybe Daleks and a popular new-Who monster? Ood or something..

Sontarans perverting the course of human history?I had no idea but apparently the New Years' special synopsis is already out. Doesn't sound like Daleks to me.
I just hope by the end of this season the Doctor introduces herself as a Time Lord/Lady from Gallifrey. Neither have been mentioned once this series. Aren't her companions curious about what species she is? Where she is from? Or did that all sadly happen offscreen?
It's not compulsory.
This Doctor Who is, apparently, more interested in who other people are than you might expect. That's not exactly a new thing, but I suppose the upturning of expectations is leading strong in this series because having Jodie in the role gives much more scope for change.
So yeah, we have learned much more about Graham, Ryan and Yaz than about Doctor Who. She's fearsomely clever but fallible, nurturing but sometimes chillingly indifferent, and expounds moral principles that she comprehensively fails to uphold.
Moffat used to put it this way: the Doctor lies.
Or as Virginia Woolf's Orlando says after her regeneration: different sex, same person.

I need that Scarf to sat as part of the outfit going forward, its perfectFirst official photos of not-Christmas special:
Well, we know the companions all survive the finale.
Why is it that the team haven't asked the Doctor anything at all about herself on screen, like just about every other companion has ?
It's pretty bizarre that the companions have never really asked the Doctor about herself, now that I think about it.That's my point, there's no mystery in this series of Doctor Who, or at least no mystery that seems to interest Team Tardis on screen.
this series feels like it has no known lasting impact.

Maybe. It still took 53 years for a companion to ask Doctor Who for directions to the toilet ("down there, first right, second left, past the macaroon dispenser.")
At this rate, it'll take Team Tardis 53 years to question "doctor, who ?"
Oh shit. Chibnall has absolutely no idea about how to write like Steven Moffat. What on earth are we going to do now that we no longer have Steven Moffat to kick around?

Or RTD, or any one of a number of writers over 55 years that added to the mystery.
And it's not that CC has no idea about how to write like Steven Moffat, it's that he has no idea about how to write Doctor Who.
It's genuinely amazing to me how much he or the writers under his direction get the Doctor wrong every episode, I think at this point I'm watching to see what bizarre/hypocritical decision the Doctor will make nextAnd it's not that CC has no idea about how to write like Steven Moffat, it's that he has no idea about how to write Doctor Who, unless he thinks that the previous Doctor was Peter Cushing.
None of those are particularly good, and Dinosaurs on a Spaceship is abysmal. I don't have a problem with people liking these but none of these Who episodes are widely liked.He wrote The Hungry Earth, Dinosaurs on a Spaceship, The Power of Three, and most of early Torchwood. That's quite an achievement for a clueless novice.
