DalekSec Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 Spoiler Free Review: Wow... i think that is the most i gasped at any Doctor Who epidode in a long time, so many bits i loved in it and so many things i didn't see coming. Favourite of the new Docs epidodes so far

Favourite of the new Docs epidodes so far Agreed. And how they take those unexpected elements forward shows promise for upcoming stories. Promise is one thing. Delivery is another...
Rob_D Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 Spoiler Free Review:Wow... i think that is the most i gasped at any Doctor Who epidode in a long time, so many bits i loved in it and so many things i didn't see coming. Favourite of the new Docs epidodes so far Yeah. I enjoyed this episode, far and away the best on of this series especially with that unexpected guest. Although I hope people thinking Graham is the Doctor isn't going to be a "thing".
LeMarchand Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 I enjoyed it, but will they have a decent wrap up to the arc, or will it just be a bit of hand-waving?
FishCustard Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Firstly, I enjoyed that episode more than I think any other 13th Doctor one so far. Secondly, great big spoiler warning with flashing lights ... ... ... ... ... Somewhat annoyingly, I think "Ruth" had more of the "Doctor" vibe we know and love than JW did. She owned the situation from the word go once she was restored - can we have #13 doing more of that please?! 2

mavhc Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Do they explain why the Tardis doesn't translate Judoon?
LeMarchand Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Do they explain why the Tardis doesn't translate Judoon? No, but retcon: It's too basic for the Tardis. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nam convallis enim quam, pellentesque rhoncus nunc laoreet sit amet. Praesent justo magna, aliquam a tellus in, feugiat volutpat urna.

LeMarchand Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 An interesting (spoilerish, obviously) theory here: https://www.denofgeek.com/uk/tv/doctor-who/69653/doctor-who-fugitive-of-the-judoon-twist-echoes-35-year-old-fan-theory - more in the comments.
6Foot2 Posted January 28, 2020 Author Posted January 28, 2020 For those who may not have seen Sunday's episode yet Fugitive of the Judoon, Season 12, Episode 5 [season 38 if we count the 'Classic' and 'Relaunched' series together] *** SPOILERS BELOW! SPOILERS BELOW! ***
ICTDirect_Dave Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Okay so I'm a little behind, but I liked Orphan 55. Remembering that WE are not the target market for Who and haven't been since we were Adults I think it's important to make these points to the kids who are watching. We are in a bad way with the climate, the world is spiraling towards a more violent outlook. What on earth is wrong with offering the kids some hope and telling them they can make a difference? I'd consider it the duty of a program with a worldwide following such as this. Use your platform. Put out a positive message, encourage change for the better. The writing still isn't the best, but the aim of passing positive messages to younger viewers is certainly commendable.
DJ-1701 Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Remembering that WE are not the target market for Who and haven't been since we were Adults Correction... we are not the only target market for Doctor Who. If we weren't a target market, then who would care that a character from seasons ago, or even the classic series is back. I agree that climate change is a very important matter... but the way it's handled in the episode I felt was insulting to the intelligence of a multitude of ages. I thought I was watching a PSA.
mavhc Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 To be fair, if non simple warnings got through to people we wouldn't be in this problem in the first place. People are idiots, 50% of them have a 2 digit IQ, and most of the ones in the other 50% are some combination of evil and stupid, trying to profit off destroying the planet they're still living on It's not a message to kids, they know it's a problem.
6Foot2 Posted January 29, 2020 Author Posted January 29, 2020 ...It's not a message to kids, they know it's a problem. Sometimes it's the 'kids' delivering the message about the problem: Greta Thunberg. -> Doctor Who, Series 12 before the MODS begin their thread warnings.
mavhc Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Discussing the message of an episode is exactly what a thread about Dr Who should be about.
pooley Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Best episode of the Dr i've watched in about 3-4 seasons. Long may it continue.
mikeprice Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 OK - just got round to watching it Wonderful - back how it should be and Jack's back then left again and she wasn;t flapping around - and was looking serious THAT's more like it lets hoe it continues
6Foot2 Posted January 30, 2020 Author Posted January 30, 2020 ...lets hoe it continues Looks like you're missing a 'p' there. 1
