“'Think Tank' is a deliberate call-back to the story Robot from 1975. I figured Conrad did his research.” – writer Pete McTighe

also can we just talk about the fact that in the Wish World, a woman can get away with calling another woman beautiful without setting off everyone's queer panic, but when a man does it to a man, it tips over the edge? so the Kates of the world are flying just under the radar, but are likely to be more emotionally repressed as a result - and yet, all the queer or queer-coded characters in this world are offered the same security and protection from doubt by the prospect of entering into an opposite-sex marriage...
#i may be emotionally attached to this topic#a good amount of my academic writing focused on queer invisibility in literature from time periods when queerness was subject to censorship#and specifically how women were represented in literature when women's queerness was particularly conducive to invisibility#and the contrast between kate and ibrahim's queer-codedness in this episode is so fascinating#ibrahim has a big queer panic reaction most likely because repressed queerness for a male character in this world is closer to the surface#whereas kate has sublimated her queerness and emotional repression into a fixation on rules and order#because work is where she can make things make sense#where she can keep things neat and tidy and cover up anything that feels off#hence the zoe evans comparison in my earlier post#honestly the way this interacts with the actors in both roles is fascinating#before dw one of alexander devrient's most notable appearances was as a queer stylist on ted lasso in a scene with masculine anxiety#and jemma redgrave made a career out of playing repressed queer-coded women before she was cast as kate#it's so fascinating because in the actual real world of the show they make an intriguing pair in a normal cool bisexual way#but against the backdrop of an overly repressed patriarchal society obsessed with reproductive futurism#they fall into more of a binary#so there's the adorable shoulder bump but also the comforting potential to be a beard couple and the safety that would come with that#he can rescue her from her spinster status and she can rescue him from anyone ever doubting his sexuality#there's so much here holy shit#brb i gotta go reread heather love's feeling backward and lee edelman's no future while watching this episode 8 more times#like a normal person#doctor who#dw spoilers#jemma redgrave#alexander devrient#kate stewart#christofer ibrahim#gay#queer stuff#queer tv#compulsory heterosexuality

Behind the Scenes of The Giggle - Part Two
Excerpt from Benjamin Cook's article in DWM 599:
On a studio backlot somewhere in Cardiff, Ncuti Gatwa is stepping on to the Doctor Who set for the very first time. He’s arm in arm with Catherine Tate, and they’re laughing about something. There’s a round of applause from Ncuti’s co-stars as he arrives. David Tennant – whose shoes Ncuti is, literally, about to fill – wraps the new Doctor in a warm embrace. “A hug from David? Now we’re in the Whoniverse,” says Ncuti, rejoicing. “THE WHONIVERSE!” cheers Bonnie Langford, who’s hugging Ncuti herself now. It’s hugs all round. They’re lining up. A hug from Jemma Redgrave. A hug from Ruth Madeley. A hug from Neil Patrick Harris, who also gives a theatrical: “Hello, hello! Willkommen!” They’re all here. All the stars. “It’s like Celebrity Squares,” quips the showrunner, Russell T Davies, who’s hugging the new Doctor too. “How exciting.”

We’ll never know who’s the first to pull the trigger and who’s the first to confess…

A year ago, I never thought I’d be thrown so deep into this world.
Yes, I was against this ship in the beginning. I was in the denial stage. But over time, after reading a few fics (there weren’t that many at the time) I was starting to get into the chemistry between the characters. And now having gone through all the stages of acceptance, I’m really looking forward to a lot of good times for these characters. Because I love both Kate and Christofer🥺

THOUGHTS ON DOCTOR WHO SEASON 2 EPISODE 4 'LUCKY DAY' 🍀🤞
huge huge hugeeeee spoilers for the episode below!!!!! (GO WATCH IT NOW IT'S AMAZING)
GAHHHHHH. OH MY GOD THAT WAS SO SO SO GOODDDDDDD I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT FROM A DOCTOR-LITE EPISODE HOLY SHITTTTT
okay. let's take a moment. first of all: fabulous premise. we've seen how this season very closely mirrors last season with its episode pairs, and having Lucky Day be the counterpart to 73 Yards with Ruby's PTSD and how she's coping as an (ex-) companion. it feels very realistic that Ruby would seek out support in a loved one: she's only twenty for goodness' sake!! sweet girl deserves so much better 😭😭 i was so, so stoked to see the return of UNIT and for us to get even more information on how they're operating in modern Who, as well as depth for Kate Lethbridge-Stewart...the contrast between her motherly role for Ruby and her being fully willing to let the Shreek rip Conrad apart (which she should have) is marvellous. and Conrad: what a villain. we knew from the moment he showed up that he was twisting Ruby in some way, but to have him be a red-pilled disinformation specialist is so topical, and makes him so, so hateable!!! bravo!!!!! and ugh, that moment with the Doctor and Conrad at the end of the episode is one of my absolute favourite moments with Fifteen we've ever had. i've said before that i adore this unrelenting cruel streak that Fifteen has. he rarely lets it out, but there's this terrifying, ancient justice in him that marks him as unmistakeably Time Lord. that's what we've been looking for from the Doctor!!! Ncuti, your acting, jesus christ 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 fuck. can we talk about. THE GOVERNOR? IS THAT MRS. FLOOD'S TIME LORD NAME??????? i'm losing my absolute shit WHO IS SHE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! absolutely fucking banging episode THIS SEASON HAS NOT MISSED ONCE!!!!!!! LET'S GO!!!!!
