April 29, 20178 yr So Nardole DOES have a purpose, that's good to hear or I would've seriously despaired at him every week. I've read an article that there was a hint that the knocking on the door of the Vault is similar to the sound of drums...would be obvious I suppose, but make of that what you will. The Doctor's scenes with Bill were the best thing about this episode definitely, I liked that they realised the different sides they had, but still cooperated in the end, stronger for doing so. The story itself was a bit filler-y and predictable, but I think I like that, less confusing stuff is always good.
April 29, 20178 yr Bill isfantastic tbh Haven't watched tonight's yet as I forgot itwas on,but I haven't been excited for a normal Doctor Who episode siiince Amy!! Any bets what's in the Vault will make the Doctor regenerate? If they want to make a twist, it could be Matt Smith, the vault he was locked in for years taken to the present by this doctor
April 29, 20178 yr Given what we know about what's already been announced in this series, and given the knocking, it seems fairly likely that the vault contains The Master, circa John Simm, although as you say, it could be a red herring. Wasn't as keen on this episode as much as the last one, although it did have its moments - The Doctor decking Sutcliffe shortly after telling Bill to stay calm was pretty wonderful. I hate to be a bit of a killjoy though and point out that Jesus was Arabic, not black.
April 29, 20178 yr Ooh a vault to seal the Master based on the one to seal the Doctor, seeing as it succeeded.
April 29, 20178 yr I am so in love with Bill as the companion she seems so normal and down to earth. Most of all she seems so human than the likes of Amy and Clara. I am not saying Amy or Clara wouldn't feel something for a kid dying but they wouldn't challenge the doctor in the same way Bill could. The episode and monsters etc was a bit fillery but just what the episode needed to be, simple. I hope this series wont be too complicated. I do not want that. Needs to be back on track.
April 29, 20178 yr The knock was 3 times though, whereas the Sound of Drums was four! I would be quite disapointed if it was the Master as he/she is the obvious choice at this stage. Also, what would be the point in containing John Simm's Master in the Vault when he clearly gets out at SOME POINT otherwise there would be no Missy!!
April 29, 20178 yr Were those wrestlers REALLY doing suplèxes on ICE or hard ground?? They must have hired prowrestlers, as it would br too dangerous for normal actors. Also, eh, the episode was ok. It was very cheesy. It would rank v low on a Joseph countdown. Next week's looks like more filler too. At least the complicated storylines won't be chasing people away anymore.
May 1, 20178 yr It was alright I suppose in the end, but nothing special, I think the banging in the vault is something to do with regeneration. Next week's episode looks more like a Tom Baker classic with a mystery surrounding it, just reminds me of that classic episode in the lighthouse with Tom Baker.
May 1, 20178 yr really enjoying this series so far!!! finally back on board after i had to give up last series due to how much i hated clara oops. next weeks looks amazing!
May 6, 20178 yr Completely enjoyed that episode has to be the best episode of the series so far, it was very gripping from start to finish. Very creepy and very dark and did make me jump in places. The episode did gave me Tom Baker vibes. And David Suchet was excellent in that role and played it well.
May 6, 20178 yr Author With Doc Who, a bad trailer ALWAYS equals a bad episode. But both the trailer and episode were great :o!!
May 6, 20178 yr Wrong - both shet. Just plays like a bad UK scary movie, like Spirit Trap. Edited May 6, 20178 yr by Tippin Virginia
May 6, 20178 yr By far and away the best episode yet very creepy and dark. I love new character's we was introduced too as well.
