#dw: series 14

fifteen talking with a heavier scottish accent and jamming to kylie minogue is something that will live in my head rent free for at least a week

He's a bounty hunter. He's into DnD. He somehow doesn't know about cosplay or how to improv despite this. He CAN dance. He fell for the Doctor so hard the only coherent thought in his head under stress was proposing to them. Within the hour he'd kissed them, sacrificed himself, and said "find me" after making them catch a goddamn marriage bouquet. He's a nerd. He's socially awkward. He listens to Kylie Minogue. He's a sweetheart. He's a Killer. He's engaged to the Doctor. He is the moment. He is the Rogue.

moffat said i only get one chance i HAVE to fucking kill the companion and bring them back to life in 45 minutes if that’s all the time i have. companions have to be dead for a little while, it’s good for them, it’s like enrichment. adds flavour. and he was right

okay, so you know that theory that series 14 is a tv show, that's why there are so many fourth wall breaks, etc, etc. well, what if we had a weeping angels episode this season? it's the climax of the episode, ruby and the doctor are surrounded by angels when...nothing happens. they forcibly close their eyes just to check, but the angels aren't moving. the doctor does his signature rambling as he tries to figure out what happened, and then it dawns on him. he turns slowly, stares directly into the camera and says "oh. it's you. all of you. you're why they can't move." the doctor starts jumping around, shakes ruby for a bit (and ruby's just like wut the hell is going on), does a thing with the sonic screwdriver before starting to run when he suddenly stops and turns back. looking directly into the camera, he says "don't blink." and then he runs off to save the day.

couple minutes later, he tells ruby to stare at some angels that were out of frame by saying "babes, the camera angle's changed."

there are 2 versions of any dr who season at the time it comes out:

1) the actual dr who season

2) the much cooler version of the same season created, goncharov-like, by fans theorizing about what everything could mean, which will slowly dissipate like sand running thru an hourglass as more and more episodes come out

Ok, so Sutekh's plan was to use an anagram that promised the return of Susan to lure The Doctor into a trap. All good and dandy but apparently that wasn't dramatic enough so Sutekh chose a second anagram for his own name (taking the risk of exposing his identity) JUST to fuck with The Doctor once he realizes it isn't Susan and that the true anagram was right in front of him.

This might possibly be the pettiest, most dramatic, most hater moment in all of nuwho. The Master has been found dead on a ditch.

Everyone trying to make sense of 73 yards is kinda missing the point, IMO. It's a faerie story. It's dream logic. It's the Twilight Zone. It's running on pure vibes.

We're not in the realm of science fiction anymore. This is Occult.

There’s definitely a joke here.

Cannot emphasise how OBSESSED i am with the Doctor being able to hear the show's backing music. Does he have favourites? Does he ever miss the funky classic who tunes?

Its giving Day of the Doctor novelisation, where the Doctor's vision changed when the show's colour grading did.

I love whenever they make allusions to the 4th wall or skirt near it. 1st Doctor talking to the people at home. 4th Doctor's laugh at the camera. 12th Doctor's monologues and playing of the Theme tune. Its all so wonderful.

But to put it in the forefront. To literally have him say " I Thought that was non-diegetic " (music not actually present in the world and only for the audience) to have him WINK at us.

Obsessed is too weak a word for what I'm feeling right now. I love them

do you think a susan twist copy has ever interacted with a clara oswald echo as they unconsciously battled for dominance along the strands of the doctor’s twisted timestream and despite both of them believing themselves to be ordinary humans with normal lives they looked into each other’s eyes and felt a glimmer of uncanny recollection of horrors yet to come

Chris Chibnall: Okay we're gonna make the doctor gay but we've gotta be quiet about it. Subtle. Stolen glances. Quiet sapphic undertones.

Last week was hell for the Doctor so they said let's let him make out with Jonathan Groff this week. As a treat
