Well. That was depressing lol. Such a great episode (I miss Martha lol). Can't wait to see what S4 brings

One of my fav specials. A solid story with good guests, everything you want from a 'one-off doctor who special'. S4 next!

Among the first instances that 10 began repeating allons-y as his let's go catchphrase. He rambled off that he wanted to meet someone called Alonso, so he could say allons-y Alonso. So this character was a nice call back to that monent. Aspects of the story for this episode I think is a sort of combination of two sinking ships stories brought to film. Obviously the Titanic, but also I think there are a number of references to The Poseidon Adventure as well. The actor who played Mr Copper, Clive Swift, was also in a Classic Who story in the 80s. Interestingly there was also a character who was portrayed as a head in a box in that too. Maybe a coincidence. Kylie Minogue has been very well known in the UK since the 80s. She was an actress first, before becoming a very successful singer, internationally. No so much in the US. She was part of a popular Australian soap for a few years. Which has been a pit stop for quite a number of Australian performers of the decades.

This sounds like a cinemasins nitpick but I like to think it was intentional, as it emphasises how awful and out of touch the rich people are in this episode

At the end of this episode they establish the exchange rate of 50:1 for Sto credits to British pounds. This means Foon spent just £100 on those tickets and if it will take them 20 years to pay it off the Van Hoff's can only save about £5 a year between them!! Obviously a lot of wealth inequality on Sto 😭
