I’m not sure about the fact that Graham has cancer.
OK. Sorry, why?
I look a million dollars and I’m half dead. No kidding. I have a paramedic watching this as I type and he’s performing a truly hideous job/procedure (these doods get paid far too little). Yesterday I was in the garden for 4 hours. Last night I had some peeps over fo…[Read more]

@arbutus @starla Ohila says, “I heard the Doctor had come home. One so loves fireworks.” Seems she had rather voyeuristic reasons for being there.
@the-war-doctor I thought the Doctor was playing a riff of Clara’s theme on his guitar. Wasn’t that what it was in reference to? That he remembers her story and song.

@Avaris BBC can really do a Paternoster Gang and Clara Who Spinoff. It will be quite (a-hem) interesting character relation between Vastra, Jenny, Clara and Ashildr. This will be just very weird. But I bet every episode will pass the Bechdel Test for sure. Throw in River Song! How anyone can say that Moffat doesn’t write strong fema…[Read more]

Hmm… maybe the Doctor was the president’s father? Or father-in-law?
Haha- as the president was Rassilon in the time of the 1st Doctor (which seems to be the time period referenced) that would be a big call if he were Rassilon’s father (since he’s as old as the time lord civilisation). Father-in-law would make for some interesting pos…[Read more]

By dying, is Clara “practically immortal”? In theory, as long as she returns to her moment of death, there will be no cataclysmic paradox that will tear apart time and space. However, she plans to take some adventures in her TARDIS before that happens. Isn’t she taking a big risk by delaying her return? If she “dies” before re…

I just woke up, and will rewatch it later in the day.
@puroandson
Nice catch of Don’t Stop Me Now cover in the dinner. I think there are a lot of little references to the adventures of the Doctor and Clara in this episode or in this series, for instance, the barn to the Day of the Doctor and Listen (soldier with no gun too), Cold War r…[Read more] -

@puroandson SM does not bother with over explaining. Much of his work is metaphorical with a layer also easily understood by children Very good point. And it seems to me modern day children are much more sophisticated `consumers’ of images and TV than my generation was.

Ooh, Missy’s daughter… hmm, I like where you went with that. I also like your theory that if Ashildr was exposed to the time vortex and untempered schism she could potentially be part TL.
If she were already part-TL somehow, then it might actually take exposure to the Untempered Schism for her TL side to be expressed (her expanded mem…[Read more]

Little girl… okay, Ashildr isn’t exactly little, but she’s a young girl. No idea at all how she could be part time lord (she’s certainly not!)
“Little girl” is a stretch, although it is Missy speaking, with her low opinion of humans, so rating her above “puppy” might be a compliment. If Ashildr’s been on Gallifrey for some time, exposed…[Read more]

This episode is just so well constructed: visually, musically, the script… it is simply spot on!
Agreed completely. Much as we’ve been picking apart story points and theorising, the episode is not just interesting from where the story is going, but it’s also beautifully constructed from an aesthetic standpoint and well acted in what is vi…[Read more]

@Puroandson and @Starla I feel like I am jumping into a conversation mid way so apologies but I was at a History Week workshop this morning discussing how to make history interesting for children so found your ideas very interesting. Australian Museums have been slow to follow the wonderful child friendly design of U.K museums. (I don’t recall…[Read more]

I still wonder why Me was dressed very much like the 80’s/90’s version of Clara’s mother in the selfie Clara took. There’s been no resolution to that yet .
Me stated very clearly that she did it to get the Doctor’s attention.

@puroandson Thanks, I was picking up on an idea posted by others (@bendubz11, @frobisher, @bobbyfat, @starla, etc.), so it’s hardly an original thought. I just decided to go through each episode and see what of the Doctor’s wardrobe I could see. But whoa, I should have given my post more of a read before hitting the “submit” button. Several typos…[Read more]

@Akhaten For want of a nail, a shoe was lost . . . well, why not?
@starla Remember how there was talk (please forgive me if this is a spoiler!!) a while ago about the importance of what pants the Doctor is wearing…
Oh, your theory is pants!

Let’s give this a go then. Below are screenshots, promo shots and behind the scenes photos from episodes 1-10 of series 9, as well as its prologue, arranged in the order they’ve been shown.
