Doctor Who

Omega, it was speculation that the Doctor was The Other. I'd have to do more research but him being Omega sort of makes sense? Not as much as I'd like, though.

Yeah, it's been speculated on as far back as his first appearance really. I guess the nerd confirmation came in the form of a spoiler that one of the major sites got from a reputable long time source that Omega is the true villain of the 50th. And no actor is listed as playing anything resembling Omega other than Hurt. So it's more of adding 2+2 than any real confirmation. It's just as likely that these 3 Doctors will fight against Omega. But Omega = Doctor has a lot of history, that's for sure.

a hitherto unreferred to regeneration that fits in before Ecclestone and is allegedly the Doctor that fought the Time War. He is definitely NOT the new Doctor to replace Matt Smith. Interestingly thus far they appear to be keeping the numerology as it always has been as far as Tennant, Smith etc go by.

The Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Trailer is an Amazing Thrill Ride
We just saw the first footage from Doctor Who's 50th anniversary here at Comic-Con. We expected hilarious banter between stars Matt Smith and David Tennant, and a haunting look at the forgotten Doctor John Hurt. But we got much, much more.

The trailer starts out on a haunting, dark note ? Matt Smith is walking in the TARDIS, while in voiceover he says, "I've had many faces. Many lives. I don't admit to all of them. There's one life I've tried very hard to forget." And we glimpse the Doctor talking to Clara about his greatest secret.

And then ? what looks like the Time War, between the Daleks and the Time Lords! Seriously. Daleks blowing up, flames everywhere, everything going to Hell. And in the middle of all the carnage, John Hurt as the non-Doctor, looking resolute. "Great men are forged in fire," he says. And then something about being the man who lit the flames.

And then, we get Tennant and Smith. Tennant, in his TARDIS, yells "Allons-y," while Matt Smith, in his, yells "Geronimo!"

Rose pops up and warns that "the moment is coming." And John Hurt's non-Doctor says that he is ready for what's going to happen.

And then: the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors comparing their sonic screwdrivers, as Tennant looks possibly a bit jealous of Smith's screwdriver. And then a shot of both of them wearing clever glasses, while Smith wears his fez and they look delighted with their cool gear. And then a glimpse of Rose, looking excited.

Oh, and the TARDIS being airlifted down to Trafalgar Square with the Doctor hanging down from it.

Smith is in the TARDIS, when he says, "I remember this. I pretty much remember." And we see twinkly lights traveling across the Earth.

David Tennant and John Hurt are inside Matt Smith's TARDIS. "Oh, you've redecorated. I don't like it," Tennant says, channeling Patrick Troughton in "The Three Doctors."

A title appears: "This fall, the Doctor will face his darkest day: Himself."

And we see Zygons, plural. Busting out of a glass case. And then some more shots of Daleks blowing up and being torn apart and generally being Da-wrecked.

Inside the TARDIS, Tennant tells Smith, "For once, I would like to know where I'm going." Smith responds: "No, you really wouldn't."

And then, someone says, "I'm looking for the Doctor." And the camera pans around to show Hurt, Tennant and Smith, with the two Doctors trying not to look at their unacknowledged predecessor. Tennant shrugs and says, "Well, you've certainly come to the right place."
