[QUOTE]Originally posted by FawnDoo: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Lee: [qb] One thing I forgot to mention is this Universal Translator field the TARDIS supposedly generates. . . Has that ever been mentioned before? [/qb][/QUOTE]I don't remember anything about a translation field, but the TARDIS has been shown to have abilities and be able to affect people before. Didn't it bring the two companions from the TV movie back to life? Added to that (and my memory might be completely off here) didn't Hartnell's doctor have to get back to the TARDIS in order to regenerate? Am I right in remembering something about the TARDIS helping the process along? So a translation field isn't such a stretch if it can bring people back to life - certainly makes more sense than Trek's universal translator anyway. Also, excellent thought on the TARDIS perhaps being diminished from what it was due to the lack of repairs/power from Gallifrey. I was struck on watching the first two Ecclestone episodes that whenever the TARDIS was in flight (for want of a better term) it seemed to have a lot more shaking and rumbling than previous incarnations - compare, for instance, with McGann's TARDIS (or any of the previous ones), which seemed quite sedate when cruising along - no shaking for the most part, no rumbling and no needing to hold on to something while it was in flight. The new TARDIS seems to be a bit more of a boneshaker, needing a lot more work to keep it running. Indications of damage from the war, perhaps? [/QB][/QUOTE]
