Why was the Rani dressed like you? Perhaps she's fashion conscious. She was in disguise. Practising another one of her talents.

I cannot believe the doctor who fandom has spent the last twenty full years clowning that Susan and the Rani are going to come back and then they both turn up IN THE SAME EPISODE

so I’ve spent a very long time insisting that Mrs Flood couldn’t possibly be the Rani because she’s a weird little camp storyteller type and the Rani is a cold hard scientist. however. I think maybe it’s much funnier if the Rani regenerated into a campy little weirdo ONE TIME and pissed herself off so much that she had to bigenerate for the express purpose of telling her past self how annoyed she was about it

everyone always acts so aghast about the whole “the doctor kidnapped his first companions!” thing which yeah obviously terrifying from ian and barbara’s pov but you really gotta look at it from the angle of “guy who just ran away from home comes across someone breaking into his car and in a panic locks the doors hits the gas and now they’re all very very lost” and then it becomes hysterical
