Content

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.

I usually don't like this episode, but for some reason I really resonated with it on this watch through. One thing I'll say is that Masie Williams plays "old" really well. I always say that Matt Smith is believable as a 1000 year old human, but Maisy is only 18 (she turned 18 on set) and is so believable as an 800 year old human. I don't think Ashildr/Me has selective memory, but I think it's just that the human brain only has capacity to remember so much. I'm only 41 but I find more and more gaps from my teens and 20's than I had at 31. So I can't imagine what it would be like after 800 years. I really wish that this episode wasn't shown back to back with the previous episode. I think it would hit harder if they were separated. I'd even go as far to say that they could have been in different seasons and had a huge impact, much like River Song did. Oh, and when you mention about her forgetting people but remembering the Doctor, she did say at the start "how can you forget the person who saved your life?" Then, regarding Clara she said "oh I never forget someone's weaknesses" (or something like that). I do agree that she has purposefully chosen to forget her father and the village. It probably hurt too much.

I do not rewatch this second part as despite some lovely character moments it falls flat for me. Maisie does and PC do a great job with the mediocre writing. I was very surprised at the end when you said this story is your favourite of the series so far. I enjoy the first part but feels weak compared to the stellar writing of the rest of the series for me. There is a book about about some of Ashildr’s adventures between the two stories called Lengends of Ashildr which is very enjoyable.
