Bicyclops posted:To be fair, that is a revival thing rather than a Moffat thing. Nine and Ten screwed up a little now and then, but the Doctor has been getting more accurate with the TARDIS over the years. And he was able to come back seconds after he left for 100 years to pick Rose up at the end of Series 1's first episode Of course, Eleven was, what, 15 years late to pick up Amy? So it's rather hit & miss

And, if you watched the last episode, 12 brought Bill to the Frost Fair and not 2017.

Well we all know the TARDIS takes him where he needs to be. So anytime the Doctor landed somewhere or somewhen unintended it was for the better. Anytime he landed with pin point accuracy it was just the TARDIS saying, "yes, I agree let's go there" rather than "weeeeellllll, how about here instead?"

Sometimes I sort of miss the days of the First Doctor where he literally had no clue what he was doing and just ended up in a completely random point in space and time every time he activated it.

Which is ironic, because Hartnell knew what every goddamn thing on that console was 'supposed' to do.

Yeah, I also see it as the Doctor generally being able to control the TARDIS properly but sometimes she knows he's needed right at the next planet over. Or a century prior to when he intended.

Echoing pretty much everyone. It was decent, fun episode. I still haven't wanted to throw my phone/TV out if the, which is a record for recent Who. Also didn't expect the black Jesus line, but I'm good with it.

I think you can really see a new lease of life in Peter, because he feeds off Pearl so well. Gutting there's only going to be 1 series of them together. For the most part I never read the cast lists, so seeing who's in what is either a surprise when I go to the floor or when I see the final episode. I had no idea Nathan Barley was in this.

BSam posted:Is that you getting a shoutout at the end echoplex? if so that's pretty cool. Yeah. Was amused by them using my twitter page featuring the Starbug interior and dogs, which feels like an accurate summation of my life. Carbon dioxide posted:Frost Fair of 1814 (yes it was real): The bridge at the start of the ep was actually a recreation of a bridge over the Thames that no longer exists, and there's only a few etchings of it in existence. We had to dial it back a bit/lot (the section we made is about 1/3rd scale and not as curved), but, still. Our Production Designer knows everything about architecture past. He has books he gives us for reference which are legit 1850s first editions with architectural drawings to copy. A lot didn't make the edit, but we did recreate a lot of stuff from the real Frost Fair - gingerbread wrapping, the souvenir mugs, the commemorative prints etc.

Still need to do a rewatch but on first viewing I'm very pleased that Doctor Who took a definitive stance of being pro-punching out racists. Also Capaldi's speech to said racist a little later on was really good.
