Capaldi era (2013-2017) ↪ I do what I do, because it's right! Because it's decent! And above all, it's kind. It's just that. Just kind.

This was the only thing I could think of while watching Robot of Sherwood.

s8 ep3 robot of sherwood

- very excited for this nottingham representation, i was born there

- karl marx looks a little different in this

- another amazing fit from clara, im glad they’ve decided to go back to dressing the companions up for the past, i thought they’d given up on that after s1 ep3

- this is silly as hell

- this is a good point, nottingham is quite miserable

- the doctor is a real hater

- don’t be magic-ing things on fire in medieval times, you’re going to get burnt at the stake

When the Doctor is played by a Scottish actor, the TARDIS gets hit with an arrow.

Silver Nemesis (1988)

The Shakespeare Code (2007)

Robot of Sherwood (2014)

RTD better continue this with Ncuti Gatwa!

Do you sometimes think about how Clara implied The Doctor has a huge dick

[clairedelune-13]

I’ve always loved how in every Mark Gatiss episode, the companions dress in period-specific attire.

My love for Clara’s Sherwood dress knows no limits 🥰🥰🥰

Episode Summaries under the cut

62: Robot of Sherwood - Season 8, Episode 3: Clara wants to meet Robin Hood, so the Doctor takes her back to prove he doesn't exist. Right as they land Robin Hood appears and shoots the TARDIS with an arrow, and challenges the Doctor to a duel, which the Doctor wins. Robin brings them back to his camp, where the Doctor refuses to believe they are all real, and insists they must be androids or something. At an archery contest, the Doctor, Clara, and Robin are captured by robotic knights lead by the Sheriff of Nottingham.

Clara is taken for questioning and learns the the Sheriff has possession of a fallen spaceship and has been collecting gold to repair it's circuitry, then plans to take over London. They fight and Robin kills the Sheriff, but his arm is injured. They find that the ship is taking off, but due to the damage, will explode. They take a golden arrow from the archery contest and shoot the ship, giving it enough thrust to make it to the atmosphere and explode harmlessly.

67: The Runaway Bride - 2006 Christmas Special: During her wedding, Donna Noble is mysteriously teleported into the TARDIS. The Doctor tries to take her back to her wedding and figure out what happened in the first place. Robots attempt to kidnap her and attack the reception, so the Doctor investigates her place of work with her fiancé. In the basement the Doctor finds a spider-like alien called the Racnoss, who has been working with Donna's fiancé, Lance, to poison her with ancient particles that drew her to the TARDIS.

The Racnoss eggs were buried deep in the Earth's core and contain these same type of ancient particles, so the intention was to use Donna as a living key to bring them back, but the Racnoss and her children would then consume the Earth. The Doctor manages to let water from the Temps into the building, flooding the tunnel to the core and killing the Racnoss and her eggs. He begins to get carried away, but Donna pulls him out of it and he escapes with her. He offers for her to travel with him, but she declines.

[caps-clever-girl]
