Hated Sleep No More, but this was GOAT. Loved it. Best of the series, and best story in years. Capaldi on top form, and it was a proper story with good villains/characters. Bravo Gatiss

Mega when?

>just a story with beginning, middle and conclusion with some characters
>GOAT

Wow our really standards really have fallen low

Wait a second
So Nardole, that guy who was always like
>Hurr Sir your oath!
>You cannot be off world!
>LOOK AT ME
Just decided to free Missy?
Couln't he just use the Tardis telepathinc circuits?

Nardole's been hacked

I agree, but this was the first ep in literally 3 years that felt like a proper Doctor Who story and not some 'clever' convoluted bullshit

it was normal Gattiss filler with propaganda anti-war-on-terror

post yfw you realise that Alpha picking up the Ice Warriors and introducing them to the universe is a set-up for the Peladon stories and how the Ice Warriors are representatives

no, the one with Fisher King was the top of Capaldi ternure

>GOAT
never

Enjoyed the episode a lot.

Current rankings:

The Pilot
Oxygen
Empress of Mars
Thin Ice
Extremis
Knock Knock
Smile
Pyramid at the End of the Earth
Lie of the Land

How do you get out of bed being so retarded?

Just heard that the new doctor is being revealed this coming week, possibly Wednesday

make better aguments

Just heard you're full of shit

HOLY SHIT GATISS ACTUALLY WROTE A GOOD EPISODE

Doctor Who? More like Doctor Poo.

I cannot see that, it was bland as fuck
is that all on Ice Warrior's nostalgia?

>The Master is free and is using a cloaking device to hide while piloting the TARDIS. Missy remembers being the Master watching her pilot the TARDIS while still hidden, and she also remembers being the Master seeing or causing the Doctor to regenerate very soon.

Guess which peach of a GB poster came up with this shit.

This is true, Miss/master team up in ep12 and lock the 13th doctor in the vault, it's why missy asks him if he's ok, because shes already seen what happens

MEGA??

crossover with 1st Doc also

>filler
You know that doesn't apply to doctor who, ret/a/rd.

define filler

Don't know about that, I was never big on them but they grew on me over the course of the episode. Good counterpart to the Sontarans

Could be a clue as to why Capaldi said they filmed his death already, maybe Master/Missy cause him to regenerate, he starts to do that, then right before he finishes they shove him in the vault and that's how 13 ends?

not really, it was just that everyone's motives made sense and the villains were actual characters, not evil just because like we've been getting so far. and i found the whole victorians on mars thing fun.

we have big finish as stale to rehash to death old concepts
the series needs to push its boundaries

a filler in DW is a episode that people keep pointing guns at each other

heard he regenerates into 13 at the end of ep12, and the xmas episode is some weird timey wimey mind/dream thing where 13 still thinks hes 12 and he meets up with the first doctor before completing the 'mental element' of the regeneration

besides the rope-colonel bit, they all were one dimensional

Ok, fine. I get it. Things haven't been looking good. HOWEVER! Kino next week!

dont care about next week either
bring me Simm already

My rankings:

Pyramid at the End of the Earth

Pic related is a meme from 2014 so you all can know my openion is gud.

never say anything will be KINO, hype only makes you dissapointed. Expect everything to be utter shit, and you can only be pleasantly surprised.

>KINO
only if David Lynch did, no other Kino nowadays

Why did TARDIS fly away in the first place?

SIMM WHEN

It was scared

thread theme youtu.be/bdTELokKfCk

OK, so far we had

>The Pilot
It wasn't all that bad, but lack of any emotional impact made it pointless. Also, it was missing a middle act.
>Smile
Wow, paperclip optimizer, so creating. You keep writing amazing episodes, Frank. Not. What a waste of (probably) all the budget
>Thin Ice
Not bad plot, but either don't focus on racism or have it all the way through. One punching bag guy is just dumb pandering.
>Knock Knock
Not that bad, but extremely tedious. Bad guy was semi-interesting for once.
>Oxygen
Meh. Decent horror, confused metaphor
>Extremis
Pretty good
>Pyramid at the End of the World
Good idea, flawed exection. Result still fine by me
>The Lie of the Land
Holy shit Whithouse you fucking hack I hate you now
>Empress of Mars
Seemed meh on first watch, need to rewatch.

>Movellans, Alpha Centauri, a Classic Who writer, and Tenth Planet Cybermen
Why did Moffat say that this season would be casual-friendly and a soft reboot?

Not forgetting Ice Warriors and John Simm's Master

None of it is necessary to understand what is going on.

Simm is next week's cliffhanger
Bill getting her teeth removed and head covered in bandages the next
And finally, strawberry blonde

We're going to get banned

What's /who/'s top 5 Ice Warrior stories?

Fuck. Just when I thought that there were no loose ends.

Missy induced it to with some sort of machine that she cobbled together? The TARDIS had no reason to take off on her own. There were no paradoxes or imminent threats nearby, and even if there was a threat, she's stuck around for worse stuff. Maybe we'll learn in a future episode.

Which is the better Ice Warrior voice?

Classic "I'm freezing my tits off and hissing" or New "I'm grunting and clicking loudly while not speaking"?

It's weird, because Briggs is capable of doing both voices.

Why? The two used-up ones will be off the board in about 5min

Well I really enjoyed that. Got that "real doctor who" vibe. And also classic who vibe aswell. I thought it was really comfy. My rankings are like this now:

The Pilot
Empress of Mars

~~~power gap~~~
Oxygen
Thin Ice
Smile
Extremis
Pyramid
Knock Knock
Lie of the Land

Next week's episode looks pretty mysterious.

guys
finally KINO has happened
who /happy/ today?

...

>Monk Trilogy fucked up so hard that a Gatiss episode is considered good

It looks like it's gonna be nothing noteworthy, got a crocodile with tentacle mouths and stuff.
Best part will probs be the hint at what will happen in the finale.

>The crew want to emphasise the Doctor's physical eccentricity, and the Doctor's 'new look' has been designed accordingly for the 2018 series and subsequent merchandising opportunities. Gone are the rather boring modern day suits and shoes and ties and hoodies, instead to be replaced with a more 'Colin/Tom Baker' style costume - unusual, bizarre, colourful, but above all, utterly, utterly mad.

Sounds terrible

Sounds incredible

I'm looking forward to it

source?

>BBC confirm Timmy Mallett as the Doctor next month

He's going to eat all the light, which is better then to eat all the people.

Alright asking for the last time in a non dead thred.

Why do people here dislike 10 ?

What the fuck, is Bill actually being turned into a Cyberman?

GUYS
THIS IS IT
KINO HAS FINALLY ARRIVED

EMPRESS OF MARS IS G-O-O-D

NEXT EPISODE LOOKS G-O-O-D

KINO
KINO IS UPON US

Agreed. This was a proper episode where the doctor wasn't some "legend woven throughout time" bullshit.
Nobody knew who he was and he got treated like shit. He had to work his way out from the bottom which is what we like about the doctor to begin with. It's not about making 23984 grandiose speeches about all the THINGS I'VE DONE, it's about actually doing those things. Bravo Gatiss.

too much SJW agenda injection
too much rehashing
boundaries not pushed
since we got gallifrey why ignore it for all season

Primarily, perhaps as a reaction to hype he gets elsewhere. He's also pouts a lot and has very confused characterization that is mistaken for depth and complexity.

BASED

moff ang gatis are tired

Newfag please go

He became whiny and genuinely unlikable by the end of his run

Moffat said every time the Doctor finds home, the next thing he does is run away again

go to sleep mark

Guys, listen. Guys. What if, get this, guys, listen here, what if Missy, alright check it out, what if Missy was actually a previous regeneration, alright, like an older Master who eventually regenerated INTO Dr. Yana. Imagine that. Wow.

but why home is not trying to get him?

kys

watch the fucking video
arguments baby

go to sleep toby

Spook town

or if the master was the doctor all along, like Moff fucking the canon before leaving

Happened in the classic show as well. He was made president after stopping Borusa, chose to run off.

I'm chris

Next on Big Finish:
Doctor Who: Time in Office

ALSO
VALLEYARD BETWEEN 12 and 13

So what's on BBC One while Doctor Who is on in the DW universe?

Twin Peaks S3

Legends of Tomorrow.

...

Porn. After so many alien invasions UK government realized that life is short and TV licence money need to spent on what truly matters.

I think this week's episode and last week's are contenders for the two worst episodes in all of NuWho.

>VALLEYARD
Who is this guy? Is he from BF? Never heard of them.

Tom Baker, fine, Colin Baker on the otherhand.....Please god no.

That'd be short and sweet, he ran off seconds after being made president, but what is time to a time lord? rofl, I would'nt mind a circular time kind of deal where he deals with the presidency in his head
