Doctor Who 4x2 Reaction Early Access!

Nick Earl

Only six weeks until Silence in the Library!

The Humanomaly

Also, you should really keep that badass DW "Blind Wave Reactions" intro from last weeks episode for every Who reaction.

The Humanomaly

Donna is still my favorite companion. She's just so "normal"

Rebel Pilot

cant wait to see midnight reaction they gonna love it.

Rebel Pilot

I am a forever donna stan. she is my fave companion.

Fizzy

Donna <3 She's the most fleshed out new!who companion. Her actions are actually one of a real person. The fact that she turned the doctor down the first time after seeing his rage is a realistic reaction. Then, she realized how small and insignificant she was in comparison to all of time. I loved that so much. She goes from a loud arrogant woman to an empathetic savior.

I'm pretty sure the doctor just know what is fixed and what isn't. The things that are fixed must happen and the thing that are not fixed can happen or can not happen. He doesn't change everything to fix the timeline. He just modify time in places where it is still in flux and not fixed. Jack is a good example because he could just travel around with him and modify his life without problem but than he became a fixed point that timelord shouldn't interfere with.

Joseph Whitehouse

An interesting Tom Baker (4th Doctor) story to watch after this would be 'Face of Evil' because it answers some of what can happen if The Doctor doesn't quite get things right in an evolution of a society. In time travel the consequences of decisions can lead to startling effects.

IrishNexus

Yup, Karen Gillan creeping around before returning later

Karen Gillian was in this? Hmmmmm. Also fixed points in time are fixed regardless of how it happens I believe.

Skeletor

I wonder if it just happened to be the actor in this has more parts in DR Who later and wonder if they will reconize the actor again but it be many seasons later.

Aaron looking at the camera and saying “She’s in a few things” cracked me up

Aaron talking about different actors showing up in the show in the same episode 12 and Amy appear in!

Ashley Jamieson

I like the stealthy little 12 next to weird 10 on the table for a while.

Samantha Bailey

The old man was the same character from voyage of the damned.

IrishNexus

One thing about Doctor Who which goes against their wish of wanting to go certain periods in time and locations is that prior to the Ninth Doctor there exists 33 years of classic episodes with the First - Eighth Doctors and they've been to loads of different locations, so you have to take that into account in that they have to keep the continuity going.

TbcAlex

It was only for the first episode

Adnan1610

Why didn’t you add the intro?

Uncle Bubba

Not a spoiler but Sarah Jane Smith had a sonic lipstick case.

Can't wait until Torchwood to see if they spot them

chris z

love this episode, especially for the certain cameos in it. do they really not know about Karen Gillan? :)

Scribbles

Oh, and yeah. The Doctor could see that the destruction of Pompeii was a fixed point. He just couldn't see his role in it. It's like our sense of sight lets us see all the blades of grass in a field, but not the fact that one of those blades of grass is a slightly different shade of green than the others. He sees so many moments in time that the tiny details sometimes go by him.

Robert Trainer

Wonder if they'll recognise Karen Gillan.

Scribbles

Sensing the flow of time is one of the Time Lords' senses, like our sense of sight, touch, smell and hearing. That's the whole reason why he ran from Jack after Rose made him a living fixed point. His time sense was wigging out over it, because there's two types of fixed points: fixed points that *shouldn't* be changed or it will cause a catastrophic unraveling of the Web of Time (see the early run of Eighth Doctor audios from Big Finish), and fixed points that simply *can't* be changed. Rose made Jack's very existence one of the latter, and that's just not supposed to happen to someone.

Finally getting into my favourite Tennet series of Doctor Who and we also get to see Catherine Tate show everyone who doubted her as a companion for DW proved wrong with this and the next episode.

"There's been times when an actor has shown up before." Hahah, Nice stealth spoiler Aaron.
