I'm glad we're going to be getting to see Yaz's family as she's the companion who I feel hasn't had the chance to shine yet! Spiders is an interesting enemy, I'm glad I'm not acrophobic! I'm kind of holding out for a fleeting reference to Planet of the Spiders too kink.gif

This title is giving me 'Daleks in Manhattan' teas. Hopefully the story isn't as tragic as that! 😂

Is it supposed to be a play on Anarchy in the UK?

Really excited for this episode for the reasons Klaus gave above - we really need Yaz in the spotlight, and it looks like this (and Demons of the Punjab) will do just that.

This could be the first properly scary episode of Doctor Who this series (partially because even normal spiders terrify the B'Jesus out of me), so looking forward to this one.

Another brilliant episode, the production was just excellent. Some parts of the episode just made me jump and scary, laugh.gif I shall be checking under my bed tonight for giant spiders, or on the ceiling laugh.gif bearing in mind I hate big spiders. Reminds me one of those Tom Baker era classic episodes that made me jump.

best punchline was

Who is running for President?

And I'm loving Jodie Whittaker as the Doctor, she has really made it her own already, she is well fitted and she is pretty much faultless.

Will likely post more thoughts tomorrow but another great episode, even more darker and chilling than I expected. Very good job that I don’t mind spiders otherwise I definitely might not have been able to watch - the mummy spider omg. A few scenes that will have definitely terrified younger viewers!!

I kind of am still waiting for an episode with a BIG major intentional threat but maybe that’s a style they’re moving away from for this series?

Ranking so far:

01. Rosa
02. Arachnids in Sheffield
03. The Woman Who Fell to Earth
04. The Ghost Monument

Not as good as last week, but last week's was exceptionally good. I'm not sure about the idea of a presidential candidate who is a bit like Trump, but not as sane laugh.gif

Great episode and such a departure from last week! Last week was of course the series high.

I wonder if Mr Big will return as president later?

Order:

1. Rosa
2. The Woman Who Fell To Earth
3. Arachnids
4. The Ghost Monument

I hope not, Trump has invaded life too much (including in many TV dramas). He can stay away from Doctor Who x
