Doctor Who official Christmas special thread

11's hour is up, time for the clock to strike 12. Pumped for Capaldi's take on the Timelord, despite the fact we're probably only going to see him for a couple seconds. Hopefully he'll bring a dark element to the show that Eccleston also emanated. Thoughts?

    I have mixed feelings about the episode. It was kinda messy; we hardly saw anything of the war and the regeneration scene, while good, was a little abrupt. Also the ending retconned most of S7. What was the point in that? I'm also unhappy that the Silents were explained away as simply being genetically engineered confessional priests. I thought the Silents existence was tied to the Time Lords, as they were shown to have a timeship at the start of S6. And why was there a time crack behind 11's scary door? Why did he fear the crakcs more than anything else? The pay off felt so unsatisfying, and the overall episode missed some emotional beats (for me personally). I feel like Matt deserved a better regeneration story.
