Ah, yes, bright red fingernail. I like it.

“River’s wedding barking brain blower.” 🙂 🙂

wasn’t it just? and I SO wanted to see the nightmare child! I had visions it _was_ the Doctor, at one point.
I’m envisioning something different now: is Ruby her own mother? I think not as @mudlark pointed out -it’s not a particularly great twist: “there’s *always* a twist..”

@whohar @mudlark @janetteB @juniperfish @ps1l0v3y0u @blenkinsopthebrave @cathannabel

yes! I also think it’s an altered reality. I was rewatching Church on RR  & saw STRIAD (Tardis) -I’ve been slow on that front. Also an early episode actually mentioned the doctor’s granddaughter which I don’t think has happened in decades?

But on the issue of…[Read more]

Rubs chin… “Ruby a projection of the Doctor?!” I like it.

Yes, also a possibility that Susan Twist is the TARDIS too.  And what did Mrs Flood say awhile back? “Haven’t you seen a TARDIS before?”
As you say, & others too, that AI is a big thing this ‘season’ (1) and certainly Dot & Bubble were a large clue in that direction -or better yet an ex…[Read more]

Ah THOSE snowflakes… ❄️ I think this is part of whomever (and wherever) left Ruby…

I think her role is more complex than I originally thought (though others have surmised this pretty quickly!)

Is this person an old TL? Or a nasty god-type person? As others suggested, The Game Maker, maybe?

Yes, he does look more like the other one…

I think 14 is first as he’s the most recent in the “new new new” Who on Disney +?
They all DO look odd- as if a mirror has been shifted so that their chins look more pronounced, or at least the bottom of their faces…?

I thought it could be R.E.G. too… but the forehead is odd. And also why? Unless this…[Read more]

But can we add that MJ died only this year? The actor playing the …..

a very nice nod….

Puro.

you mean … in the “yard!” I’m NOT sayin’ it here! 🙂  🙂

@ps1l0v3y0u

by Testimony do you mean the alien in Twice Upon A Time?
To be fair, I REALLY need new glasses! (Possibly a better memory…)

And could he be a “bad” doctor? Don’t want to say too much here….?

Did we all see the unexplained extra Doctor-face during the scan onboard Rogue’s ship??

@craig —agreed

on a calm note (pun intended). Interesting to hear the Who theme & variations played by the strings in the ballroom as Rogue, Emily Beckett, Doctor & Ruby discuss the cosplay.

Puro and Son.

@blenkinsopthebrave interesting comments about HG Wells Time Machine: as a child, it was fascinating.

@cathannabel

Good to hear from you!

Absolutely agree with the idea that many young ones aren’t as attached to social media as many others assume.

Just from our perspective only, The Son and many of his mates have virtually no socials with most working 2 jobs & at university/college. There is less time, less disposable income and as @JanetteB m…[Read more]

@monkey8EA5T

I’m not sure it was at all ambiguous… was it? 🙂

possibly!

I’m also reminded of The Wedding of River Song: “why are some people in boxes?”

Because some people are rich and some are left to rot…

🙁

@janetteB hi-ho! Yes, I thought so too.

Upon rewatch Lindy’s statements to the Doctor before the reveal are beyond disturbing:

This is getting ridiculous. I’m sick of you…

Is THIS (monster) something to do with you?

condescending much! Are you two in the same room? You’re together !

I blocked you! You’re criminals.  I was so right to hate you. He’s (the Doctor) going to be SO discip…[Read more]

Interesting. To all those recalling the Scan the Doctor does I’d forgotten this.

I’m remembering how safe the companion is often not; and how promises are broken. I’m reminded of The God Complex where the Doctor says to both young and current Amy: “I knew this would happen. I can’t save you and there is nothing I can do to stop this….I’v…[Read more]

@mudlark Dark is definitely worth a watch: the key to it all is a fabulous character based study where crossing timelines (not necessarily the most important part of the drama) creates a stunning backdrop for the story.

I’m pretty sure -& no spoilers here- one of the female characters is her own mother…. There’re a few instances of  timey whimey…[Read more]
