Trying to get my Heaven Sent review out yesterday, I neglected to address the Doctor’s Confession Dial, which Mayor Me had taken from him in Face The Raven. She didn’t know really what it was, or how it worked, but she knew that the people who wanted the Doctor would understand. And boy, did they, […]
Well, you can’t say that Doctor Who is afraid to take chances. After Me made a deal to protect her alien refugee street, giving up the Doctor, and Clara was killed when she took the ChronoLock from Rigsy, he is transported – somewhere. Clara’s death has kindled a deep rage in him, greater than his […]
This was an unusual episode of Doctor Who, in many ways. There was no musical opening; it wasn’t a two-parter, but didn’t end on a save-the-world note, and gosh darn it, it was relatively stupid. At least until you got to the end, and even then, I’m not sure. I can see Gattis and Moffat […]
This recent two-part story, the Zygon Invasion and Inversion, are a welcome return to classic Who! Great monsters, references to past episodes, Doctor saves the Earth. These were a lot of fun! If you didn’t watch Day of the Doctor before watching these episodes, you might have missed a lot, because nobody’s got perfect recall, […]
This may be an unpopular opinion. But honestly, I’m not here to please all of you… I’m here to say what I want to say. And if you don’t agree with me, please leave comments below. I may ignore them. But here it is… I didn’t like Maisie Williams, in this episode or the last. […]
For the first time in a long time, I thought I was going to be left unsatisfied. This was just a “meh” episode for the first half – interesting, I suppose, in some respects, but I felt like we’ve seen this before. Scary monsters, clueless humans, brilliant doctor, spunky Clara. I don’t have any problem […]
Holy clashing icons, Batman! Maisie Williams, Game of Thrones‘ Arya Stark, guests on Doctor Who this week! And if a Thrones/Who mashup isn’t bad enough, how about a Star Wars reference thrown in the mix? Oh, and alien Vikings! I really enjoy the pseudo-historical episodes they throw in here and there – Rome, Robin Hood … […]
I’m a backstage junkie. I love costuming info, production notes, talking with writers, producers, directors – sometimes more than watching the finished show or chatting with actors. So Doctor Who generosity with all this stuff makes me love it even more! Here’s some of the images from the photo galleries for Before the Flood – to […]
The second part of this two-parter was exciting! Will the Doctor violate his principals against changing the future? What could make him do that, if anything? Apparently, Clara can. I was sad to see O’Donnell become a Fisher King victim – I really liked her! She was a fan of the Doctor’s, LOVED the Tardis, […]
The weather’s getting cooler… fireplaces are getting inspected… you know what that means, don’t you? There’s going to be a Doctor Who Christmas Special! But right now, we’re talking about Christmas Past, not Christmas Future – The Doctor’s past Christmases, that is. The BBC just announced that they’ll offer a special boxed set of past […]
