Doctor Who Season 7 Part 2 Premier

WARNING: May contain spoilers.

Doctor Who once again made my bucket list because the premier was on the Saturday before Easter and I've been looking forward to it since Christmas. The first episode of second half of season 7 is "The Bells of Saint John".  We have the return of Jenna-Louise Coleman's terribly confusing character of Clara Oswin Oswald and Matt Smith continues as the eleventh incarnation of the Doctor. And spoiler! We also get a glimpse of "the Great Intelligence", played by Richard E. Grant. Can't wait to see how he comes back throughout this season.

We don't get a lot of details about Clara/Oswin except the connection from Clara to the name of Oswin and the little details of how Clara comes to be a nanny in the 21st century. I'm afraid the last 7 episodes of the season may not give us a lot either.  Moffat can be pretty sadistic like that. But I'm hopeful this season will help us learn more of Clara's story and resolve how she has died twice! Seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if she is Rory's daughter or something from the number of times she has died and come back to life.

Also! Neil Gaiman has been bribed back into writing another episode, which will be the 12 episode of the season! It's titled "Nightmare in Silver" and Moffat requested that Gaimen make cybermen scary again! Considering Gaiman wrote one of my top 3 favorite episodes of all time, I can't wait to see it!

"Because it's a surprisingly accurate description!"
