Someone Might Be back. Again. (Possible Spoiler)

I have a feeling we're going to be done with Rose for a long time, if not forever.
Please, God, please...

I think it would be silly to bring back any of the old companions as none of them will have had any contact with this new Doctor, and it would take away the emotional impact of 10 saying goodbye to all of them.
I would agree with that, with the caveat that since Torchwood and Sarah Jane Adventures are still expected to continue into the future, that it would be okay for 11 to run into Captain Jack and/or Sarah Jane at some point.

Also, keep in mind that Moffat did CREATE Captain Jack. I think he has a right to use the character. Also, I preferred Jack when he was written by Moffat. I haven't seen him do better than Empty Child/Doctor Dances since.

Yeah, I could take or leave Sarah Jane, but I think the nature of Captain Jack's character pretty much guarantees that he'll be around.

I wouldn't necessarily mind Donna coming back, but if that happens she would need to get better and not have her head explode. I think it would be interesting if they found a way to have Donna regenerate and become a permanent pseudo-Time Lord.

No, Jack was created by RTD. Moffat got to write the first story with Jack in it, and Moffat created the "two year gap" in Jack's memories.

Really? My bad.
 
I've never really understood why there is a need for the lite episodes.
Ever since Season 2, they've filmed fourteen episodes in the amount of time originally allotted to thirteen-- presumably to keep costs down. That means two episodes need to be filmed at once, and David Tennant was not capable of being in two places simultaneously.

I give it a few years at least. Up to the point where Tennant gets nostalgic for the character and comes back to play the duplicate human Doctor left on Pete's World, along with his wife Rose and his newly grown TARDIS that is native to that reality. The time until then will be explained as the time needed to make the new TARDIS.

(I say this having seen the deleted scene where the Doctor left his dupe a piece of the TARDIS to regrow for himself, and Doctor/Donna told him a trick to speed up the process.)
 
Jeez, what a relief. When I saw the thread title I immediately thought of Saint Fucking Rose...

:guffaw:

That was my first thought.

Im hoping its going to be a story arc and be rounded off at the finale, unless theyre filming pick-ups or aditional scenes that need to be re-done or added for the eps that she is in.

But knowing Moffat and his love "Letting the audience imagine a majority of the story" he'll not let us in on the big secret(s).

Gotta say as NuWho companions go, St. Rose is on the bottom of my list. Not even sure if she's on my top 10 companions list.
 
I think we've gotten away from the original point of this thread, which is the fact that River is possibly coming back more than once this season and that is awesome.
