I understand why with what going on in the world why in may not be appropriate rewatch material this weekend (Emily made the right call) but I hope it can be rescheduled for another time because it is a brilliant Capaldi two parter 🤞😔 |

Of course it's disappointing for everyone that was looking forward to it (myself included) but it was the right decision to meet the moment. These episodes aren't going anywhere and we'll find another opportunity to watch together someday.
Right now, people that have been hurting their entire lives are being heard on a new level. We could all use escapism, but it's important to recognize that we don't all have the privilege to indulge. In this moment, and especially given some of the content in these particular episodes, going ahead would be extraordinarily tone-deaf and counter-intuitive to the core values embodied by the character all of us here appreciate and admire.
Throughout this entire effort and including this decision, Emily has shown the world the meaning of thoughtfulness and generosity and consideration and sincerity. I appreciate everything she's done and for the kindness she's shared with the world.
"I do what I do, because it's right! Because it's decent! And above all, it's kind. It's just that. Just kind."

I hope they can reschedule the rewatch for in a few weeks time, she made the right decision, but it would be a shame to let them go to waste🤞

These episodes are currently free at Amazon Video (for today only, I'm guessing). Grab them and let's look forward to a time when we can re-watch together.

This series of Doctor Who has been so much better than the last two. Why? Is it just that it's easier to make things good if they are short and simple? Or is it that the writers aren't constantly being distracted and put under the pressure of having to run all other aspects of the production? I'm going to miss the Cook era.

Well, I loved this.
Especially Nardole's part was fantastic.

Well, there were enough joyless grumps who did complain and even insult her several times.
I vaguely remember she posting on Twitter that she once even was close to tears once because of that. Certain parts of the fandom certainly would require a "jolly good smacked bottom" in my opinion... |

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

That was lovely. I really miss Bill and Nardole. The two of them are brilliant together. As an aside, did anyone else catch them on Matt Lucas’ Twitter account dueting his Baked Potato song? Wonderful fun.

So some article says that Moffat said that this was his last piece of Doctor Who writing. As they say in NZ: "Yeah, right." Sounds more like famous last words.  In any case, looking forward to more Who writing from him. Maybe he even one day comes over to the dark side and joins BF. |

Rule One: Moffat always lies😉 I hope he joins BF too, both for classic and modern who Doctors! Also there are several gaps in 12’s timeline that would be good to have filled!🤔😀 |

Series? They're just watch-a-longs & DVD extras. To call this the Cook era is bizarre, to compare these little things however well made, to the last 2 seasons is bizarre. |
