They will serve if it suits their purpose, as it did in Victory of the Daleks, I wouldn't put it beyond them to be willing to accept an enemy as undefeatable for now, their prime drive is to survive as well as dominate, maybe with time they could dominate, but I think they would, when faced with an obviously superior enemy, choose survival first and wait for an opportunity.

Of course, on the other hand, the only enemy that could unite these races against it would probably be the Doctor, which really does raise some very, very interesting questions as to Who this new foe is ;)

We need to wait.
 
I'd imagine everyones turning up to serve.
 
Turning up because they're drawn without a choice.
 
Anything else bar unified resistance. Cybers and Daleks will NEVER team up.

This brings another question, who built that mystery time machine?
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

What I did find funny was when the hologram appeared and the Doctor said "Please state the nature of your emergency.."

Little nod to the Doctor from Voyager there ;)

Well if we could include the audio books of Big Finish Productions, we know that there was another ten temporal powers in the universe before the Last Time War. As the ship didn't use dimensionally transcendental technology, but rather just deception filters, that simply leaves us with too many possibilities in my opinion.

Only up to episode 8 in Australia, and yes I could watch the rest online, but I've only jumped ahead one when it was a double episode. Now back to what's on TV...

At the risk of sounding like a fanboy, is there anyone else out there who gave up on Doctor Who during Tennant's stint and went back to watching the Hartnell years?
In-Mission Techroom Script v0.4 - See information from the techroom in game
Simple Animation Script v0.2 - Make your own on-screen animations for FSO
Visible Waypoints Script - Makes waypoints visible in-game
Run From File Script - Get around the pesky 31 character limit for script-eval

 
Nope.
I wasn't particularly fond of the original Dr. Who, all the 'dials' it turned up to 11 were off switches for me.
"Neutrality means that you don't really care, cuz the struggle goes on even when you're not there: Blind and unaware."

"We still believe in all the things that we stood by before,
and after everything we've seen here maybe even more.
I know we're not the only ones, and we were not the first,
and unapologetically we'll stand behind each word."

I liked early Tennant, but later on in the series it got a bit too angsty and self-pitying for my tastes, I think he picked the perfect time to leave, however, because I do believe that further Tenant episodes would have slowly dropped in quality until it got boring.

Hartnell was a unique, and under-rated Doctor to be honest, and the special effects of the time didn't do him any favours, but he was a highly cereberal Doctor, far more inclined to use his brain to solve a problem than his future incarnations (this was, however, partly because he was pretty old and couldn't do energetic stuff), and the understanding of science at the time seems a little 'quaint' by our modern standards.

My favourite was Baker, partly because I grew up with him as the Doctor, and partly because he had Douglas Adams writing some of his stories, which was a perfect combination with Baker's personality, but I do, however, have a lot of respect for later Sylvester McCoy episodes, mainly because it was the man himself who insisted the Doctor got more adult and manipulative in his manner and whilst the series ended under him, he did a lot that helped the new episodes come back aimed more at older audiences rather than as something like the 'K9' series on childrens TV.

Or the Sarah-Jane smith adventures on CBBC.
 
The only thing going for that show is Sarah-Jane smith. . . . She's not "too old" and would probably welcome the attention of a money grabbing younger man. ;)
 
And you just know her sonic lipstick has a vibrate setting lol.

I think Tennant, like Eccleston was a fantastic Doctor Who actor, ruined by what was the destrucity of RTD...

Well, I certainly do hope that it'll get resolved in a better fashion than the last few series finales.....

Before I watch the episode, which is in the process of being loaded onto my computer and will be done in 84 minutes, is the contents of the big box with runes on it what I think it is?

interesting episode but I smell a glaring plot hole

Spoiler:
how in the alliance's thinking is sticking him in the box superior to just killing him, I mean they had enough fire-power there to make sure he never gets back up again and it would have had the same effect, stop him flying the tardis.
