Doctor Who 5x11 - Early Access Clean
Added 2024-10-02 21:00:05 +0000 UTCI love this episode! It gave me the same kind of vibes as Love & Monsters (however, I personally think this episode is a lot better). I just really enjoy seeing "regular" humans in episodes, and Craig and Sophie were great! I'm sure a lot of you know that I also love the humourous episodes, and this one was just wonderful in that way, too!
One other thing I adored was seeing the Doctor in a "everyday" kind of setting. No time travel, having a little bedroom, playing sport, making breakfast. It was such a novelty thing for me to see, and I'm guessing for him, too. If he had to do that every day I'm sure very quickly the novelty would wear off for him 😅 but I loved seeing him have a place to live and just... exist, if that makes sense.
I really enjoyed it!!!

2024-10-04 11:47:54 +0000 UTCOne interesting detail with the Next times is that they got better with them - in the first series there were a few complaints when they originally put the Next Time even for two-part stories directly after the cliffhanger and before the credits, but they quickly learned to stop doing that at least for multi-part stories.

2024-10-03 20:51:50 +0000 UTCWow, that is actually awesome to know! I might try them myself haha

2024-10-03 20:51:22 +0000 UTCI would love to see more episodes where he is just doing "normal" things! This was just brilliant!

2024-10-03 20:50:57 +0000 UTCI felt SO happy for him, seeing him in a little bedroom and home 🥰😭😭

2024-10-03 20:49:46 +0000 UTCThe Doctor cooks like he does science. It's chaotic but ends with perfect brilliance. Or something catches fire.

2024-10-03 15:23:42 +0000 UTCInteresting Thought: if Sophie had not fallen in love with Craig, she might have become a companion.

2024-10-03 15:23:04 +0000 UTCIn real life, Matt Smith is quite athletic. In fact, in the 2012 Olympics, Matt was part of the Torch relay - much like another Doctor back in Season 2.

2024-10-03 15:21:35 +0000 UTCAh, the good old days, when James Corden wasn't one of the most hated comedians in the world...

2024-10-03 14:31:02 +0000 UTCI love this episode! I love seeing the Doctor in a “human” environment and trying to fit in. Matt Smith is so good at these subtle little moments where he says or does something so strange and alien. Loved the way he spat the wine back out! He’s a much more alien Doctor than David Tennant, who always wanted to be human so badly. I think this whole season of Doctor Who is really strong, but the finale is really fantastic!

2024-10-03 11:59:43 +0000 UTC"If he had to do that every day I'm sure very quickly the novelty would wear off for him" - you are so right... Not really a spoiler, but you might see that some time 😁

2024-10-03 10:26:17 +0000 UTCI can’t type well so I’ll just say this Thanks to a neat mixture of this episode and my weaponised autism those scrambled eggs the doctor made were my comfort food till I was 18 😂

2024-10-03 02:58:34 +0000 UTCI think he specified a red pen because the note was written in red.

2024-10-03 00:33:51 +0000 UTCMatt Smith actually played football at a pretty high level in his youth, but unfortunately a back injury kept him from the professional career that he had initially wanted. But maybe that was fortunate for us, as it allowed us to have him as the 11th Doctor!

2024-10-03 00:20:32 +0000 UTCA refreshing interlude from the heart heavy episodes we've watched for the last few weeks. Two-part season finale next and it's time to hold onto your hat. (iykyk) Great stuff as always Jules, can't wait to see your face next time.
The Rising Ape
2024-10-02 23:31:37 +0000 UTCUp until this episode, I've only known him for the talk show on CBS. Use to watch Craig Ferguson (who is a big Doctor Who fan that has had many DW cast members on) before he took over.

2024-10-02 23:02:24 +0000 UTCThis is an adaptation/ massive expansion of a comic from Doctor Who Magazine, but that one was from several years before, and so is about David Tennant’s Doctor having to stay with Mickey. I actually really like the “next time” preview after this episode.

2024-10-02 22:49:50 +0000 UTCThat is very cool to know!! He certainly had the moves. It is truly wonderful to see the Doctor doing "human" things... I love it.
Juliette Gaming
2024-10-02 22:28:09 +0000 UTCYes, right person. Unfortunately, Mark has the name slightly incorrect. James Corden. British writer and actor who went stateside to do a talk show for long while. Known in the UK mostly for a comedy show he co wrote and starred, in called Gavin and Stacey.

2024-10-02 22:06:30 +0000 UTCI always forget how good this stretch of episodes is. From Vincent/The Lodger for some solid low-stakes episodes then one of the best season finales then my favorite christmas special then the amazing Series 6 opening. It gets crazy from here. Also just a fun fact: Matt Smith was on his way to being a professional footballer when he was young until an injury stopped him. 11th Doctor being good at football is a joke on that.

2024-10-02 21:55:50 +0000 UTCOOH! I think I've seen him in some car show with celebrities!

2024-10-02 21:54:35 +0000 UTCIt's all a little too much for my minute brain sometimes 🤣 I thought the red had something to do with the bow ties haha

2024-10-02 21:54:18 +0000 UTCCraig was played by James Corden

2024-10-02 21:50:38 +0000 UTCFuture Amy wrote the note for the Doctor above the AD for the flat. That's why he said "Amy hasn't written it yet". He said "make sure it's a red pen" as he saw the note having already been written in red ink. So, it has to be a red pen as it was already written using a red pen. Time travel!

2024-10-02 21:45:07 +0000 UTCThis was a wonderful break for a bottle episode. But, it's time to put on the seat belt because it's going to get a little bumpy.
