Thanks for all the prints and images!   It occurred to me that last week we had Diagon Alley

and this week we saw Hogwarts when the stair cases move around.   I’m sure the Potter fans

loved that!

I’ve been also thinking about Clara being always in his head.   She is his conscie…[Read more]

I’ve have decided that all of the events of this story occurred in the Doctor’s mind.

Therefore there is no clone(s).   This was an abstract prison that the Time lords

were hoping to capitalize on     Inside the Doctor’s mind it seemed like an eternity but

the whole sequence of events could have been seconds. He alluded to that when diving…[Read more]

So can we agree that the Doctor would never create this confession dial for himself.

So how did he come into possession of it?   The first time I can recall seeing it is when

he handed it over in the prologue to the sister.   I’m curious about all of that part of the story.

Thanks for the Bird explanation     🙂

Yes! Agreed about the Moff and his really great story arcs and  excellent stuff Mr. M!

@puroandson

If he left the confession dial with Me then how is it he is holding it in his hand at the end

of this episode?  I did like how he fell back  into his comfort zone which was having

Clara and the Tardis  aka his mind  when he needed his ‘deliberations’ .  That’s how he managed

his sanity.

Can Bird refer to the Raven that took Clara?  To remind himself he was going to ‘win’

over imprisonment in this trap for her?

PS   great sets too!    and how was this confession dial an access to Galifrey?

I liked the metaphor of breaking thru the time wall ?  Time lord tech using the

confession dial to travel back to Galifrey.  Wonder if ‘They’ just wanted to

use the dial to exile the Doctor?   If so it didn’t work out really well.

WHOA!    My kind of episode!    I had a feeling about the confession dial but I didn’t think

he would take that trip into it.  He went thru trials for billion of years and I don’t think it was

driven by his fear.  Fear was just the companion. Clara told him that in Listen ( in the barn).

I think he was driven by overwhelming grief for Clara. …[Read more]

I sometimes liked watching the show for Capaldi or Coleman but not always.

You haven’t been alone.  Its all about the stories and the supporting characters

and the ongoing mysteries for me .  Haven’t felt  especially drawn by a lot of

the seasons episodes but they were all good and a few very good.  But I watch

the show for th…[Read more]

We had some horrible fires in California this year and I  commiserate about how that feels.

We have friends in the foothills that  barely skirted the flames but their neighbors  weren’t

able too..    This is the new normal in our areas.  Both of us share very similar climates

and conditions.  But it is truly a great climate despi…[Read more]

Hi

Finally kicking back after a day of running around being the gracious hostess  and eating and

eating on Turkey day in California. Now the others are drinking and still feasting but I  reached

critical mass with all that. There is an unending  discussion on current events and it has  defeated

me.   So I’ve surrendered to  a comfy chair a…[Read more]
