RandomGuy. Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Quite enjoyed it considering what it was, pretty much purely there to show this new Doctor isn't as "childish" as the previous ones while also being more aggressive. Feel like half of this series is purely going to be about building up the new doctor and emphasising the difference in him from Matt Smith, storylines will take a bit of a back seat I suspect. Personally I love this "angrier" Doctor, he genuinely feels threatening, and when Robin Hood pops the button of his jacket I half expected the Doctor to kill him Interesting wee hint towards this "Promised Land" though, literally no idea where thats going to go, I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copying the Hugh Laurie/Gregory House thing for kindly doctors methinks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romeo Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I thought it was a crock of shit. Very disappointed. Clara though. Wid squared. I agree but not about Clara, her left eye is slightly lower than the right, turn off city. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightswoodBear Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 That was utter horseshit. One or two amusing lines for the Doctor, but little else. Next week's looks like it could be good though. About time he got a "scary" one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaggy Jenkins Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Was totally crap. Also the 'funny' scottish jokes are wearing thin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I thought the guy's name was Awesome at first! Better than Orson I suppose. Also I thought the Doctor had already been to the end of the universe? That time when Tennant's Dr met The Master (Derek Jacobi) who was unaware he was The Master? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Very good episode I thought. Was genuinely a bit scary at times. Was the Doctor wearing a woman's sparkly top?! This Pink dude is surely going to be involved in the series arc. Didn't catch any reference to 'The Promised Land' this week though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Also I thought the Doctor had already been to the end of the universe? That time when Tennant's Dr met The Master (Derek Jacobi) who was unaware he was The Master? I don't think they actually went right to the very end though back then, just as close as possible. The Doctor in this weeks episode made a comment along suggesting he turned off "safety" settings to allow the physic travelling and with those settings off they went further than the Tardis would previously allow. So this episode was the very end of the Universe, while that older one is just as close to the end as the Tardis would allow. Interesting wee "arc" that the humans in the Tennant episode were searching for Utopia though, a sort of promised land... Also the wee creepy fucking eye behind Clara at the end was a right shit the bed moment 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Ah. Makes sense. I never noticed that eye. I'll be sleeping with the light on tonight as it is, so probably just as well 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
