Yeah, I was also wondering if she might be Dave Lister-style “our Rob or Ross...”

I feel like that makes it sound like some sort of TENS machine. I kind of like it still being a screwdriver - it’s sonic, after all, so no reason it has to look like a physical one. :D

I feel like a lot of Moffat’s stuff has always been of the “dark fairytale” variety, which blends softly-casual into fantasy anyway, so I’m fine with it. Plus time-surfing flying Goblins are a pretty fun concept.

Love him already. He’s got so much energy it’s infectious. It was also really cool to see the Doctor just letting loose and having fun (dancing at the start, for instance).

There was an older BBC show called “Being Human” that had a similar concept (only it was a vampire, werewolf and ghost as a trio of flatmates) and started off really well before going off a cliff after a couple of seasons.

John David Washington is my shout, but Stanfield is a solid choice too!

If it gets rid of the constant “Please agree to our cookies before looking at the website” popups I get all over the place, I don’t care if they track every intimate detail of my daily “Wake up, go to work, come home, cry, eat pizza, sleep” routine til the end of days.

While I know what you’re referring to, my brain automatically jumped over that and scuttled right over to the Grand Midwife. :D

This is one of the most spot-on comments ever on the internet.

This looks almost like it could be a prequel to the amazing DMZ comic books, and I cannot wait to see it.

It wasn’t too long ago that a Pope retired, and that’s effectively been a position that prior to that point had always sort of “regenerated” (you know what I mean), so if that can happen, then a fictional alien can easily change things up too. I quite like the idea that the Doctors don’t always need to die in office.

And tbh, that’s not a bad solution. “You’ve come into my personal timey-wimey field, so it reflects on you from my perception, but you’ll be back to normal when you go home...” is far, FAR better than if they tried to use some shonky zombie de-aging tech (esp on a BBC/Who budget!), and at least tries to nod toward an…

I think the more curious thing about this is not “What happens when Gatwa’s Doctor dies,” (which I suspect will be a more traditional regeneration, but you never know!) but rather “What happens when Tennant’s lingering Doctor dies?”

Ahh, that makes sense. I didn’t realise Tennant’s shirt was an undershirt after the split (I’m not a fashionable person!). Thanks :)

The one thing I really want explained is why the new Doc had (or only had, depending on your glass status!) a shirt and boxers, instead of either a full outfit or no outfit at all. How does that work?

As long as GdT gets to design Leto II and especially his cart, I can dig it. :D

I desperately want him to finish Children, and then if he’s done after that (which would be fair enough) get Del Toro in to do God Emperor.

I guess along the “Casting is really important” line - you want someone waifish looking to fit with the general aesthetic of Link always looking a bit (imo anyway) Elvish.

I feel like the movie “Big Fish” is about the closest Hollywood have ever come to “live action Miyazaki” and even that isn’t really anywhere near close.

I want the police to be less superpowered than in V.
