Dr Who – The End of Time (Minor Spoilers)

More information is emerging about the final David Tennant Dr Who special, mainly confirmation of casting rumours. Minor spoilers follow.
As previously suggested, John Simm will indeed be back as The Master – despite apparently having been finished off. That ring, perhaps? Also returning will be Katherine Tate as Donna – despite this threatening to blow her mind. And there will also be Timothy Dalton as a character called “The Narrator” plus June Whitfield as Minnie Hooper.
That’s confirmed fact, now to my speculation…
We have a show that includes one character believed dead and another we’ve been told can never know about the Doctor. We know the TimeLords are involved. There’s been speculation about seeing the Doctor’s mother (”Minnie Who-Parent” anyone?).
None of which makes sense.
So here’s my bet: The Matrix
I reckon much if not all of the finale will take place within The Matrix. Possibly this will be a way of trying to save The Doctor at the end of Waters of Mars, perhaps we’ll have another Trial of a Time Lord. Either way it would provide the perfect excuse to have the Doctor meet all the characters from his past before regenerating into Matt Smith.
What do you think?
