This is the corrected version (the original version that was published early had an issue with my video/audio being out of sync with the show footage).

My video is jumpy/glitchy. So, apologies about that. I'm still working on getting that fixed, but their support team hasn't been any help whatsoever.

*****

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.

No matter how many times I watch this episode, Matt's final scenes in the TARDIS make me cry. When he says "I won't forget one line of this, not one day I swear, I'll always remember when The Doctor was me" that was totally Matt talking rather than The Doctor and that's what sets this regeneration apart for me. That speech and Amy being there and the bow tie dropping to the floor was all Matt's farewell and that's beautiful. Plus 11 is my favourite Doctor so far, he truly captured my heart, so this episode is a hard one for me but in a good way if that makes sense. 😭 As for the rest of the episode, I like how it brings back all the things from his era. But it felt messy to me. Like the lady running the church talked about River which implied that this was a future version of the order of The Silence, but then during the episode they also seemed to become the order. So that's always confused me. And The Doctor seemed to know this woman VERY well, intimately, but we'd never met her. And we never found out why she seemed to be narrating over parts of the episode. And they seemed to try and shove as many creatures into the episode as they could which they really didn't need to do. But on the positive side of things, The Doctor being naked was so funny. As was him taking his wig off lol. And I loved his interactions with Clara. Well I just loved everything Clara did again. How many times has she saved The Doctor now? More than any other companion has already and she's only had half a season. She jumped into his timestream to save him from the Great Intelligence, all her echos saved him god knows how many times, she convinced The Doctor to save Gallifrey and now she's convinced the Time Lords to give him a new regeneration cycle. (things that happen in the future make this scene even better) And this isn't even half of what she does for him. She's beyond special and she'll always mean the world to me. 💕

As far as (Doctor) goodbyes go, I think this is my favorite to date. I do agree with others that the pacing is quite off, it probably could have benefited from being a 2 parter. I do really love Matt's Doctor a lot, but Capaldi is so far my all time favorite so I'm excited you've reached this new chapter.
