I'm pretty sure nothing will be revealed in the ep...what'll happen is a massively intense build-up (probably at the Fields of Trenzelor? Unless they are saving that for season 8..) and then *BAM* there'll be a cliffhanger. Hopefully to be resolved in the 50th. Which we won't get until November.
That's the way I'd like to see it at least, even if the wait will kill me.

Just watched Hide. Initial reaction: pocket universes! Entropy! The orange enviroment suit! Eye of Harmony! Metebelis 3! Pushed a lot of fanboy buttons, this ep.
Oh, and I found it to be a pretty cool, atmospheric and creepy ep for the first half, the creepiest I've ever seen the new series, really. Went down a bit in the 2nd half, but only because it naturally went from unknown horror to the classic sciency-wiency explanation. Also, really like the Doctor's relationship with Clara is far from perfect. At times, they seem ok, but he's definitely more alien and distant since the Ponds, and the fact that he's being so secretive around her is something I adore. Wasn't too keen on the overall resolution, but it was the scariest ep we've had in a long while I'd say, certainly leagues better than the attempt we got with Night Terrors, imo. There was some emotion in this ep, but it was much more nicely done than what we got in Night Terrors, really.
Also, gotta mention: really enjoyed Cold War as well. As an Ice Warrior fan and a fan of certain claustrophobic horror movies, that was an ep that I also really enjoyed. Btw, really looking forward to next week's ep! That looks set to be an awesome one!

anything where you might learn more about the TARDIS is automatically for me an awesome show.
I've really been enjoying the the show since it picked back up. I actually look forward to watching it again every week. Loved the last ep especially, and next week's looks pretty good as well. Sad that there's only going to be a few more eps. Wish they had started the first part of the season like this.
So will the 50th anniversary episode be part of next season or is it gonna be during the mid season break kind of like the christmas specials?
i think it may be toward the end of this season
The 50th anniversary episode itself is gonna be in November, and yes, it's gonna be a one-off in between seasons, like the xmas specials. Should be on the 23rd. I'd really love it to be on the 23rd - not only is that the actual day of the anniversary itself, but it's also a Saturday. Practically destiny for the 50th anniversary special to be broadcast on a Saturday, as Saturdays were what Doctor Who was made for in the first place.

See, I'm almost opposite of this. I don't know what it is, and I really am enjoying the episode, but over the last 6 months or so I've found my Who-fandom in a bit of a decline. I will be the first to say it's not a result of the episodes themselves declining. I really like them. Clara rocks. But...I'm sure there are a lot of factors. But I'm much more interested in other shows/movies as of late.

But I'm much more interested in other shows/movies as of late.Whereas I'm the opposite. What was your first Who that you watched? I know you've seen a ton, but wasn't sure when you first started to regularly watch it. And if it was with Moffat then I could see why you'd feel that way as well.
the first episode I ever saw was Gridlock, from season 3 with 10 and Martha. The first episode I ever watched, though, was The Beast Below. I don't know if it's Amy and Rory, though. I mean, I love Rory. But I also really enjoy watching Clara.
But, oh well, I guess. Not all bad...I've been able to focus on other fandoms a bit more now, and I've rekindled my love of musical theatre
I have two whovians in my house now....both kids came home with tally marks on them....lol.
Does whatever a spiderman does.
Second try: got knocked off internet first time. Hate having to remember what I said
Ok, I loved loved loved this episode. I think I am in a minority that is finding thus half of the series some of my favourite episodes - really didn't like the first half, but have never been a big amy fan and it felt tired and plodding. I believe the first half of this series has a lot to do with people being 'meh' about the who series now
Anyway, I digress. I love this episode, seeing the tardis - with tidbits and teasers, j really cant wait to rewatch because I bet I missed loads
Spoiler:
I'm finding the actress playing Clara a little wooden, but I really like the character. I like the mystery surrounding her, however I think it's a bit too much for viewers who maybe aren't as obsessed as me.
I wrote loads last time, but have now forgotten it again - the trials of age unfortunately.
I really enjoyed last night's ep a lot as well. I thought it was great how the episode not only explored more of the TARDIS, but also the Doctor and Clara, both individually and as a relationship. At times, they get on like a house on fire, at others, and this is what I really like, they can't trust each other. Both have their secrets, only with Clara, she doesn't even know what those secrets are. The only thing I didn't like that much was the ending,Spoiler:
But I digress. Like I said, overall, really enjoyed the episode, in fact, I've been enjoying these eps - especially Bells, Cold War and Journey - much more than the ones from first half of the current series, that's for sure. I'm eager to see what next week's has in store!

Shannon that is an amazing video!
Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS is my favorite episode of this season, so far. It was also one of the best performances of Matt Smith.
Also:
What room do you think would exist in the TARDIS? Write it, draw it, build it. Tag your post ‘My TARDIS’. We want to see.
egriz:
I’ve always thought that there is a calm place for the Doctor in the TARDIS. He probably couldn’t find it if he tried, but whenever he’s aimlessly wandering the halls fatigued and melancholy, he tends to stumble into it. It is her way of helping, in between companions.
The room appears to be a garden with a personal universe. The planets hang in the air, and if you watch closely, you can see them orbiting. It’s quiet, and lit only by the local sun and the glow of some of the flora.
Though he tried to hide away after the loss of the Ponds, he always seemed to find himself in this room again. It’s never quite the same, but he wouldn’t have it any other way.
Since the finale is supposed to finally reveal the doctors name, I wonder if they had an idea for what his name really was from the beginning or is it something Steve Moffat came up with since he took over?
Maybe they did have an idea of the Doctor's name in the beginning, but I think if it is revealed, it'll ultimately be something Moffat came up with. It's been 50 years after all, and I doubt it would've been something passed on from producer to producer. It'll be interesting to see what happens in the finale, anyway.

I heard rumors that The Doctor's name is the "Key" to the time lock on the time war....not sure if I heard that here or somewhere else....
on a totally different note and a day early...
Does whatever a spiderman does.
this week's episode was cool. I loved the ending, but am a little worriedSpoiler:

Yeah, I was unsure a little about the ending, but then again: Neil Gaiman!!!! Can't wait to see what his next story's gonna be like!
