I can't believe we're finally here! 

We're all excited for this one and it's ready to be released now, so I'm publishing it a little early! :)

Thank you so much to everyone who helped me with all the prep for this! Another huge thank you to every single one of you for not spoiling a single thing about this episode!

A Few Notes:

  • Please no spoilers beyond this episode unless you see that later episodes have already been released. In that case, no spoilers beyond those episodes.
  • This video is in a watch-along format. This means you'll need your own copy of the episode to watch alongside my reaction. This is in an effort to avoid copyright infringement.
  • If you're based in the UK (or using a UK streaming site), here are instructions for how to get your copy to sync with mine.
  • The show footage will play for the first 30 seconds with both video and audio. After that, the show footage will be silenced, and the video will be blurred for the remainder of the episode. There is also a count-up timer that begins once the episode has started. These things will hopefully make it easier for you to keep your copy of the episode synced with mine.
  • This episode was viewed on HBO Max.
  • If you want to know what’s coming up, check out the schedule here.
  • If you would like to send me something, you may send it to PO Box 9324, Pueblo, CO 81008, USA.

I love the fact that you were recommended classic episodes that didn't fully fit in, because that way you know if we do that again it's not going to be a big spoiler. What I love about this is if you go back and watch certain episodes you'll see all the references to Queen Elizabeth the First. The main two that come to mind (there's more than two btw) in the Shakespeare code at the very end a much older Queen Elizabeth marches in and screams "Doctor, my mortal enemy, off with his head" Martha ask's why she said that and the Doctor says "I don't know, that's in my future." Basically in this episode, he runs off after the wedding, and she never sees him again (until Shakespeare). Then in the beast below with Liz X, she says "oh good queen bess wasn't so good, was she now? Oh you naughty boy" or something along those lines.

I know it's controversial, but I love the fact that Moffat reversed the Doctor destroying Gallifrey in this story. As a very long time Who fan (I grew up with Classic Who since the 80s), it never set well with me that RTD had had the Doctor do that to Gallifrey in the first place (and the reasoning of RTD thinking Gallifrey stories were 'boring' was why he did so just irked me). It just felt wholly out of character to me, but I guess YMMV. Either way, as I said, I was super-happy with that aspect of this story and it was such a delight to watch it again (especially in another anniversary year!). <3
