well that was a ■■■■■■■ joke of an episode /neg
It would be better from a PR perspective, at least
Yes. Now they can roll with “Doctor Who desperate as they stunt cast Billie Piper” headlines.
SO WRONG. it feels like they’re trying to compensate and get viewers back, because of How many people hated the Doctor being a woman and black, and said the show is dead
Btw, no hate to Billie Piper, she seems like a lovely person, I like Rose and it’s cool she’s doing audios with Chris soon.
Whether this is the new Doctor or some kind of complicated ARG bait-and-switch it’s just weeeeird.
I’ve explained at length why Piper is a good pick further up in this, so I won’t retread old ground. At least it’s someone, and that is preferable to no-one
Do we know when it was decided that this was gonna be Fifteen’s regeneration story? ‘Cause I kept thinking that Thirteen had been pulled from that moment in her timeline where she was holding the regeneration back and that she was gonna, idk, share it with him so he didn’t have to off himself…
Like he couldn’t wait to bring back David&Billie after them
I’m vaguely reminded of one of the early Dalek Universe audios?
If I’m remembering right, the Tenth Doctor appears to regenerate into a woman, but actually the Nun teleported him out and took his place. Billie Piper is the Meddling Monk confirmed.
THIS THIS all the way.
There was a leak that Mel would die? NO I’m so glad that was fake! I love Mel <3
I was convinced they were going to mention it and then they didn’t
That is such a good idea…
It felt like The regeneration came out of nowhere. I thought he was gonna use up regeneration energy bringing poppy back, and then be fine, but no…
That’s what I thought as well
Incidentally, shouldn’t we have had both 15 and 16 there after the regeneration? All regenerations are biregenerations now, right?
Thank ■■■■ that this didn’t happen
The show doesn’t highlight River as much as Rose She was brilliant!
I FORGOT we had Jon Pertwee for all of three seconds.
I’ve changed my mind! This is the best episode ever!
I would be in heaven. PLEASE!
She’s been stunning this whole season. Her perfomance at the end of the episode was so good – it felt like she was fighting back tears the whole time. That anxiety, similar to in Lucky Day, really resonated with me.
Millie Gibson is going places; she was stunning even with the material I actively hated
Oh yes! I was dreading the whole time that they were going to stick with bigeneration for this, but fortunately they gave Ncuti a traditional regeneration. A positive, I guess!
