Doctor Who...Bad Wolf Theories...again...

[rabid1st]

You all know my theories by now...about Rose and S3...and the love story continuing sans Billie Piper. But I was just sitting here watching the Christmas Invasion when there...in canon...was an unexpected bit of support for my theory that the Wolf lives. Under the cut we go for more

The big question about Bad Wolf Rose is...of course...if she really had control over time and space...why didn't she do something to stop Doomsday? And the answer to that question could well be that she knew Doomsday HAD to happen. Then there is the part of Doomsday where Rose suddenly knows what happened while she was Bad Wolfed up...the standing theory is that the Doctor must have told her...but I've always maintained that her remembering just there...was a sign of something.

Now...in the Christmas Invasion...when Mickey and Rose take the unconscious Doctor into the TARDIS...Mickey asks Rose if she can fly the TARDIS since she did it before.
Mickey: No chance you can fly this thing?
Rose: Not anymore, no.
Mickey: Well you did it before.
Rose: I know. But it's sort of been wiped out of my head. Like it's forbidden or something. Try it again I get the universe ripped in half.

Interesting...because my theory is that's exactly what being Bad Wolf Rose means...ripping the universe in half. Possibly even creating a way into another universe.

possibly reaching...on this one...but still...how odd is it that she does address why she can't remember...and it's THAT?

Oooh. I like this theory.

Bad Wolf Rose is just too good a concept for it to be used and tossed away casually. (Well, forcing a Time Lord's regeneration isn't exactly casual...but there should have been more fallout.)

Well...they haven't tossed it away...

...have they? They had the option to do so...but they linked it pretty squarely to the beginning of S2 (with the werewolf) and the end of S2 (with Bad Wolf Bay). And Jack is all powered up and regenerating because of it. And really...what are the odds that Jack would then be coming back to Doctor Who for the finale? Or...that HIS show's finale...would deal with opening gates to other universes AND have a Bad Wolf sign in it?

::nodding:: Just because we haven't yet SEEN everything doesn't mean there won't be more fallout.

There's really too much here not to believe that it all Means Something.

They linked it into Torchwood, too, in the episode where they go back in time and eventually open the Rift (Ep. "Captain Jack Harkness"). They had the words 'Bad Wolf' graffitied (sp?) in the stairwell.

Yeah...that's what I meant

About the finale reference...the graffiti. I sort of consider that whole arc part of the finale...though there is also the big old big bad showdown aspect in the finale.
