Okay. Doctor Who‘s season finale. It’s getting a little difficult to remember how we arrived at this point, really. The sequence of events has been in motion throughout the season – The Doctor initially saving Ashildr’s life by making her immortal, his relationship with Clara taking a reckless turn. The pace has quickened in the…

I don’t know about anyone else but I’m facinated by the possibility of the John Hurt Doctor being a missing secret Doctor regeneration appearing between Paul McGann and Christpher Eccleston. Probably being the actual manifestation who was involved with the Time War and the destruction of the Time Lords who he has suppressed out of…

Hey folks. Sorry I’m late with this Series 7 finale post, but I’m in the middle of my second viewing right now. Obviously John Hurt spinning round in the final moments of the episode and the caption “Introducing John Hurt as The Doctor” is an explosive revelation by any stretch of the imagination. I’m just…

It’s that time of the week again, folks. I was out last night, so only caught Journey To The Centre Of The TARDIS this afternoon. In a nutshell: A space salvage crew snares the TARDIS, Clara gets lost somewhere inside, and The Doctor tricks the salvage guys into helping him find her. Oh, and there…

We finally bade farewell to erstwhile Doctor Who companions Rory Williams and Amy Pond this week in The Angels Take Manhattan. In fact, we bade farewell to Rory three times and Amy twice in an episode that squeezed in a bunch of character deaths! The Angels Take Manhattan was perhaps one of Steven Moffat’s better-written…
Read more The Angels Take Manhattan will be the final Doctor Who episode before Christmas. More importantly, it’s due to be the last ever episode for erstwhile companions of the 11th Doctor, Amy Pond and Rory Williams. But while Steven Moffat has teased a tragic ending for the couple, the situation couldn’t be as straightforward or as obvious…
Read moreI’d seen The Power Of Three about a week ago, just after watching the preview of the largely excellent A Town Called Mercy. Obviously I couldn’t talk about the episode at that point, but after the clever dialogue and deep insights into The Doctor and his companions, The Power Of Three managed to miss the mark completely.…

Sheriff: “He says he wants to kill the alien doctor.” Amy: “But that’s you. Why would he want to kill you. Unless he’s met you?” The last time we played the Two Doctors storyline was back in the 2008 Christmas special, when David Morrisey appeared to be a future incarnation of The Doctor. In A…
