    Blenkinsop I felt the same thing when I watched the scene. However, its rather clumsy writing if that is all Moff meant. I would expect Bill to say what she meant. On that basis, it just seems a bit strange. Bill hasnt been quiet about pointing out her sexuality, so using a form of words based on the idea…[Read more]

    @blenkinsopthebrave Well put, I think.  And a very sweet moment it is.  🙂

    Why was this scene included ? Or rather, while watching it, it seemed like a very oblique way of Bill saying she cared/loved the Doctor, but the more I think about, the more it seems quite a peculiar way to write that sentiment. Is there something more subtle…[Read more]

    @ichabod:

    Good I didn’t think it was only me who found the actor superfluous to requirements (says she pretentiously.) I agree about the scene you mentioned, very funny.

    @blenkinsopthebrave:

    The scene with Mycroft and Watson, is one of my favourite scenes in Study in Pink.

    One other reason why your observation re Gatiss rings so true for me, is that he reused the Mike Yates/Sergeant Benton  “RHIP” joke (rank has its privileges) from Day of the Daleks in Empress of Mars.

    you are a genius 🙂

  • Nick replied to the topic The Doctor Falls

    @blenkinsopthebrave

    The obvious possibilities are when the Doctor was exposed to the vacuum on the spaceship or when Bill shot him. I didnt notice anything before then, although, as you suggest, the scene in the Pilot during the Dalek/Movellan battle is also an obvious place where something might have happened.

    As you suggest, S10 smacks of the…[Read more]

    That’s a bugger. I can’t think of a way around it. It’s just behind the scenes pics & designs. If you google-image Doctor Who tomorrow you may find them all (there’s about 30+)

    Failing that, someone tech-y  could possibly teach a geo-lock bypass?(!)

    Did you watch the fan show in which Talalay mentioned she’d used ‘Night of the Hunter’ as an influence with help from Capaldi?

    Well, on reflection, that was just great. First of all, apologies for doubting anyone who thought Heather was going to make a return. You were totally right and I’m now happily convinced that that was indeed Heather that we saw in the window in the last episode.

    Last week I was worrying about whether this was going to be too action-oriented but…[Read more]

    @blenkinsopthebrave  Nothing wrong with being a hopeless romantic.  I happen to be one myself, always trying to tamp down my idealism.  Nice to see a story that says it’s better not to.  😉

    @ollie14  The Doctor did almost die for good thanks to blowing up the floor.  Bill and Heather take him back to the TARDIS so his final resting place can b…[Read more]

    @blenkinsopthebrave

    That’s a nice idea, but I’d suggest something simper. The new Doctor won’t close the door on the Doctor’s past in totality, but on the themes explored in the Doctor’s character in AG Who. In either case, it’ll be interesting to see what Chibnall does. I imagine he has an idea already.

    @thane15

    No, if you go back to the Face The Raven forum you’ll find I was sufficiently negative about the episode that @Whisht jokingly asked if I was trolling and @Blenkinsopthebrave asked if I were in the stages of grief. 🙂

    @Nick said a bit ago that he didn’t think Face the Raven could carry the weight of a companion’s death (if I’ve got…[Read more]
