Was very confused as to why The Cat was in it before realising that I was watching Strictly Come Dancing. Will watch Dr Who again when sober. Now watched again, enjoyable stuff. Whittaker nailed it and all the supporting staff were decent, too. Even if we are stretching it a bit trying to pretend the two younger ones are nineteen. Looking forward to the next one.

scottsdad Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 I enjoyed it a lot - as did my kids. One of the few shows that me, a 13 year old laddie and an 8 year old girl will all watch together. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scot-gcar709 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 To be perfectly honest i found the entire hour dull and lacking in energy. I didn't feel any real threat from the enemy, the new score was bland and Jodie's performance didn't really wow me at the parts they should have like when she confronted said enemy. I am hoping that as everyone involved finds their feet that it will improve as there is always a period like this when a new doctor is introduced. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Not a fan of the new Tardis interior. Was an ok episode tonight. Didn't quite hit the heights of last week, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me neither, though I do like how the police box shape is stuck onto the side like a hallway rather than just having the doors in the side wall like Cpaldi had. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scot-gcar709 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I thought this weeks episode was an improvement on last weeks. The only real complaint I have at the moment is that there seems to have been a shift to more character based narrative which is leading to the monsters of the week feeling very underwhelming. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightswoodBear Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I assume that the "Timeless Child" line is this series Bad wolf/Cracks/Silence story arc then? I thought they said they were binning that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 They say lots of things. I found it a wee bit underwhelming this time around. I understand, though, the need to develop the new gang of companions, and so far with the men they have managed it, but at the expense of Yaz and the storyline (a little). My kids were convinced it was killer bog roll, and they were a bit disappointed it turned out to be some sort of blanket. I don't think I'll remember this episode much in the future - but it's early doors and I do like Jodie's doctor. I think it has a lot of promise. The tardis interior is awful though. Some sort of S&M dungeon with tardis-shaped vibrators. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Sort of enjoying things, I don't think she's overly great at the "aggressive doctor" speeches, but that's potentially just a echo of Capaldis doctor and something she'll move away from. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widge Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 She’s very much a Tenant like doctor. Which is great, she’s very expressive and I think it’ll only improve from here on in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 (edited) Enjoying it so far, think Whittaker is excellent. Only slight complaint is that I'm still a bit concerned about there being too many companions. Yas has had very little to do so far. There is a later episode in which she tries to find her grandmother in 1947 Punjab so hopefully that should flesh out her character a bit.

killieshire Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Best episode of Doctor Who for years. First 3 episodes hate very promising. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Great episode. Had something in my eye at the end. Nice to see the companions all getting something to do, too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Another really good episode. The bad guy was dealt with a bit too quickly and would have liked to have got more of his back story but I'm being picky. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be, they rarely end bad guy storylines like that, he'll probably end up changing something major due to the timeline he's been put in to. Episode was alright, the whole thing about standing up to racists was a bit forced at point though, it's like they felt the need to really state what the episode was about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
