Or Capaldi and Rusty the Dalek. I still think that should be a thing.  :P

So I've stumbled across this

In case anyone doesn't know, Capaldi played a foul mouthed political spin doctor before moving in as Dr Who, this guy has cut dialogue from that into clips from doctor who.

NSFW, obviously.

He still calls himself the last of his species even though he knows he saved Gallifrey. I don't like the anachronistic writing.

Also the Missy stuff at the end of the episodes is a very lazy way to create an arc. "Okay episode's over, oh right, there's an unrelated story arc so here's a quick Missy scene."

Jubal

He's the only one of his species in the known and currently existent universe, to be fair, but I see/take the point.

And yes, the arc has been set up lazily but I'm hopeful for the series ending - mostly that Osgood seems to be reappearing and she was awesome in Day of the Doctor.  :)

Hey guys what's up?  ;D

This place seems awfully quiet at the moment...

Awfully quiet? We've made more posts in this thread in the past week than most other places of the forum. :P

Jubal

Just the whole forum is kinda quiet. I'm having an exceptionally busy week which makes quite a bit of a difference.  :-\

Minus side, I wanted it to be the Rani.

Plot was fairly standard but actually pretty well executed I thought, I think the next episode should crank up to something much more exciting. Overall I was pleased with the episode, it wasn't as glorious as something like Time Heist but it was a pretty solid performance.

Having found out who the Rani is, I agree that would have been fun, but bringing the master back in is also a decent idea, and shows the idea that a time lord's sex isn't fixed.

I agree this episode was a bit lacklustre, but it'll be interesting to see what route they take the Danny-Clara relationship down, since he's stuck in thing that's running the cybermen.
