I’d missed the ‘Doctor Who’ in the coding. @DoctorDoctorWho spotted that; excellent catch!
Thanks for that correction. Excellent catch, indeed!
As for the episode itself, I enjoyed it. It made a lot more sense on second viewing. Of course, for me first viewing wasn’t ideal. I worked all day, while hubby cooked dinner for guest…[Read more]

@nerys I’d missed the `Doctor Who’ in the coding. @DoctorDoctorWho spotted that; excellent catch!
Isn’t the big take away from this episode that, for once, the Doctor lost? As noted by @jimmyp he didn’t just win and then leave behind issues or a mess (a big theme this series), but he lost.
Still pondering (among other things): How, exactly,…[Read more]

‘The Sleep of Reason Brings Forth Monsters’; and what could be more unreasonable than to interfere with the sleep function? As the Doctor says concerning the importance of sleep ‘…we wake up, rub the sleep from our eyes, and that keeps us safe – safe from the monsters inside’. Prolonged lack of sleep makes people first disorientated, ev…[Read more]

@doctordoctorwho Turmezistan… what?
Uh . . . chief export, turmeric?
@jphamore the two real leaders who made the human-Zygon peace treaty, the Doctor and Kate Stewart, must be shown to not be incompetent fools. They must have a plan, or be able to devise a plan on the spur of the moment to make it look like they had a plan, so that we can tru…[Read more]

@spacedmunkee yes I thought it strange that ashildr would be so dismissive of Clara, given she helped her and was so nice to her in previous episode. Possibly she was jealous that the doctor chooses to travel with a “Mayfly” rather than her
I think so too — she clearly had expected that Clara was long gone, being just a mayfly, so Clara’s stil…[Read more]

Cybercat replied to the topic The Woman Who Lived
the only thing I felt (but nothing to do with direction really) was that the doctor didn’t explain why he couldn’t take Ashilda with him other than ripples/waves or something terrible.. ?
But he has been taking companions for lifetimes..
Ashilda clearly has something to do with his companions. The doctor owes Ashilda? I think…[Read more]

I’ve decided that I’m just going to imagine that the Doctor’s 1000 year diary reached the end of its pages (it was only supposed to last 12 regenerations) – and he’s moved on to a video diary format. 😀

PhaseShift replied to the topic Before The Flood
Don’t worry, I made it up! I guess the mention of hybrids in the first two parter made me think of it because the Producers said before the series that they wanted to play with the two parter format a little. I think it’s an extension of what Moffat did with Pandorica OpensBig Bang and Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon, which…[Read more]

@doctordoctorwho Michelle Gomez spoke about the Nethersphere making a possible return.
Perhaps that’s where Missy and Clara have ended up?Maybe; but in Danny’s last conversation with Clara (when he sent the Afghan boy home instead of coming back himself), he said of the Nethersperhe, “This place is dying.” So — ? Depends.
Hmm, a thou…[Read more]

@doctordoctorwho No idea BUT … The TARDIS is not the only way to travel. Missy and Clara used Vortex manipulators.

Juniperfish replied to the topic The Magician’s Apprentice
@DoctorDoctorWho Clearly, the TARDIS wasn’t actually destroyed… She’s always been dalek fire-proof historically, so I’ve no doubt she popped off just before the explosion on her own initiative to dust off a new sonic for the Doc and get back in the game.
