[Open Dr Who fan members] calling Dr Who fans (4)

[PKFox]

Hmm, just now found this Whovian thread. How did I miss it before?

(P.S. I haven't seen the latest of Peter Capaldi because my family has to wait until they are on DVD/ Bluray.)

Just thought about this. By this, I didn't mean that I don't wanna hear spoilers. I just mean don't expect me to be able to keep up with the latest episodes.

 

[A New Dawn]

I see the shows the day they are aired. We get BBCAm here, and unless I'm not home, I both record them and watch them live.

 

[A New Dawn]

Well, if you don't mind hearing spoilers ............................

I was watching Saturday's show from a hotel room and was coloring at the same time and I heard "Space". I replied with "The final frontier" (of course), and the voice on the TV replied with "The final frontier", also. At which point I had to look up at the TV, thinking it was a commercial for Star Trek, also shown on BBCAm, and it wasn't, it was Doctor Who. It completely floored me. LOL.

As a Trekkie and a Whovian, I (along with my dad) recognized it instantly and I inwardly began squeeing. XD

Oxygen was such a tense episode and I found myself relating to Bill a lot.

That ending though, wow...

 

[AnneY]

Is it bad that I was actually pleased with that ending? The Doctor finally has to deal with a situation that puts him in a position of needing help from others (although he doesn't want to admit it). Even though it was his heroics that caused his problem, if he had listened to Nardole and stuck to his vow, he wouldn't have put his companions or himself in any danger (of course the episode wouldn't have happened and the people wouldn't have been saved, but still, he's breaking a vow because he's bored).
^I did not know how difficult it was to write about a specific thing without giving aways spoilers until I had started writing!^

 

[The-Doctor]

[The-Doctor]

So thoughts on the monks trilogy and the return of the ice warriors.

"It has killer robots..you'd like it"

 

[AnneY]

I didn't care for the monks trilogy. It had some potential, but it had way too many flaws for me to overlook like I normally do because I enjoy the show so much. I really hated how the Doctor was "cured" it made no sense to me whatsoever, and was a let down. There were many other issues I had as well, but the majority of my gripes had to do with the last story. Overall it was pretty "blah" and I will probably skip those episodes the next time I rewatch the season.

I did enjoy this last episode with the Ice Warriors, it was nice to see them back again. My only issues were I wanted to understand more about how a bunch of Victorian era soldiers were able to repair a space ship, and why the deserter was allowed to remain in the army. But, otherwise it was a fun episode, finally off of Earth with familiar but not done-to-death aliens. I hope more of the older aliens start coming back (except Alpha Centuri, that high-pitched cyclops grates my nerves and its little cameo is hopefully all we'll see). The little movie references were amusing as well.

One of the reasons I like the Ice Warriors is because they always remind me of the second Doctor.. "Your leader will be angry if you kill me, uh...I'm a genius!"

 

[pgp_protector]

While I enjoy Dr Who, I'll have to admit, this season hasn't had me saving my recordings to watch over & over.

 

[The-Doctor]

[The_Master]

[The_Master]

Be careful pgp protector, his friends have a habit of dropping.

 

[The-Doctor]

So thoughts on the last episode?

"That's good, positive, it'll help prepare for the horror to come."

 

[pgp_protector]

Well I enjoyed them bringing back the original monsters. This one wasn't too bad.
I'm wondering what's on that other floor though.

 

[pgp_protector]

Welcome back pgp protector

I've been around, doing a lot for work lately, had to learn Google's GO language for a fun project at work.

Is Bill going for a record of most "deaths" in a season?

 

[The-Doctor]

It depends on what you are counting MN John
