The Doctor Who prequel to someone who's only watched NuWho? I gathered that he was about to regenerate into Nine, and internet confirms that this was, in fact, Eight. But what was the significance of the other characters? Who was that Sisterhood or whatever it was?

Confused casual fan is confused.

Yeah, we didn't get to see John Hurt except as a distorted reflection, so I'm not surprised you found it hard to read.

Glad I could help with this! I squeed so hard watching it. (:

I'm glad it was sqee-inducing! I wondered if there were implications that I wasn't getting, but it seems that most Classic Who fans are delighted, which is awesome.
