This means that the four knocks does not refer to The Master.And the sound of drums - they may be haunting the Master, but we're obviously going to find out the reason why, SOMEONE is causing it. Saxon 3 15:53, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

Someone OR someTHING, possibly the Eternals or the Time Lords. --Revanvolatrelundar 16:04, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

Notice aswell that it says wastelands of London, any idea why London would be a wasteland? On the commentaries for WOM R.T.D an David T. were talking about when The Doctor chased The Master across the wastleand.Saxon 3 16:13, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

The way the synopsis is worded makes it seem like the Immortality Gate is a location beyond the Doctor or the Master's control, could be a time lord construction ensuring the survival of the Time Lord race (hence immortal).--Revanvolatrelundar 16:16, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

Originally i thought the Master was building the immortality gate, but by the looks of it i think it is either the timelords or the thing or person behind the sound of drums. Another thing, The Master is trying to avoid his death also, could be a coincidence but i think whatever the darkness shadow over creation is, it wants time lords.Saxon 3 16:30, November 25, 2009 (UTC)

"while the alien Ood warn of an even greater danger approaching, as a terrible shadow falls across the entire Universe." You're all overlooking that. An ever greater danger, a terrible shadow? That could be the thing that is causing the drumming, the one who kill knock four times. The summary makes this apprraoching threat sound very menacing, too! If you look at it closely, the drumming is a sign or warning of this danger that the Ood can sense approaching. Delton Menace 01:43, December 2, 2009 (UTC)
