"You can't even sink the Titanic." How did we miss this line!? That is such a good burn!

I was never Buffy fan

“This is stretching my willing suspension of disbelief”, okay, so that’s where you draw the line, a building teleportation and an air bubble? Xd

Moffat wrote the best episodes of the first RTD era. The Empty Child double, the Library double, Blink and this one. Literally the best ones.

Stephen Moffat entered the chat.

Warning, if you're showing this show and specifically this episode to your friends, make sure they didn't go through something like this recently. When I was a teenager, I showed the first episodes to my friend and this episode broke her, I didn't know why. Turned out her father was a military MIA (which I had no idea about), and this episode opened a very painful wound.

Human heterochromia is such a cool and rare condition to have it only affects like 1% of the human population.

I love how he looks at the camera when she talks about the trials. heheh

Watching this with a friend who hasn't seen Doctor who before is rough, because the first time watcher is sad, like really sad....and yet, the person on the rewatch is ABSOLUTELY DEVASTATED, and the first time watcher is like ??? bruh, you've seen this before, how are you falling apart right now? You knew what was going to happen"

My brother and I made a River Song for my daughter for Christmas. The journal is made from River's point of view, and flow charts are useful. We recently gave one to Alex Kinston, Karen Gillan, and Arther Darvil.

My fav is doctor is 11 companions are amy rory and martha donna and all time fav character is river

ahaha You are so me when I watch this episode& River and docotr. And you really look like riber plus with that screwdriver you look like river and doctors' child from darillium <3

Poor Rose.

I can't believe CZcams suggested this. You're both so...untraumatized by the shows you have yet to watch 😂

How few shows will ever get a 50th Anniversary special? And will any of them top this one?

"You would make a good Dalek". Ouch.

Well it's a good thing JKR wasn't in it. That would have been a stain in retrospect.

I honestly can't stand this episode way too much singing.

Rip

oh wow...I never saw this particular episode! That is so cool!!

I have watched Doctor Who for YEARS - over and over again and even I didn't realize that he has a blue and brown suit that he switches between! "Don't lick it!" - lolol love it, that was my first instinct too when I saw it the first time!

Another of my favorite episodes. It is just brilliant. What more can I say? Except "Bad Wolf..."

It's Tristan Farnon!!! That is why I could not watch Peter Davison as The Doctor...I knew him so well from All Creatures Great and Small (another great old show I recommend) I kept expecting The Doctor to stick his hand up a cow. Kind of ruined the mood. But I love the actor.

"When will we find out what she said???" If they told you, they would have to kill you. Paula's eyebrows alternate between being way raised in surprise to way lowered in confusion throughout this episode. A perfect illustration of what we all felt the first time we saw it.

Possibly the best episode EVER.

And the ultimate incestuous Dr. Who moment.

Donnadoctor time. They finally deal with the fact that the Ood were slaves.

Peter Capaldi!!!!! I don't find him that amazing in this, but in Torchwood "Children of Earth" he was perfect. And then he was my favorite Doctor, though the episodes he was in were mostly subpar. But Heaven Sent combined the best actor and an amazing script. And of course Karen Gillan!

This is one of my favorite episodes. And you asked for a light hearted episode. I think this one cheered you up. I have an Adipose in my office at work...along with a bunch of Studio Ghibli stuff.

Paula as a true fan. It is a pleasure to follow your progress. But there is so much more to come from this point. I can't wait until the Crash of the Byzantium, for example.

He is SUCH a good Master. And I have seen them all. Although there are a couple other excellent ones. And now we find out the secret of the Face of Boe.

The beginning reminds me of when Scar took over the Pridelands and the whole land was devastated.

Derek Jacobi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have loved him since I, Claudius. An old show I highly recommend.

This episode is when I LOVED Martha.

I grew up in L.A. but now live in NYC...which, though no one admits it, can have worse traffic than L.A. But at least has a transit system. Martha Jones is wonderful. But I have to admit the episodes with her are largely not my favorite...until Derek Jacobi and Jack. But it is great to watch you watch them. It makes me appreciate Martha more.

Queen Elizabeth (I). Dr. Who is the only show that has references to things that won't be shown for YEARS.

"I don't think they are having coffee." In Japan, the euphemism for sleeping together is "having morning coffee."

Such an Ood episode! I have to say, I was never comfortable with the essentially slave nature of the Ood in this episode.

Madame Poisson! An amazing episode. Classic Dr. Who had a lot more historical episodes. I am happy that when the reboot did a historical episode they did it so well. "Doing alright?" Well...as the Doctor says, "I'm always alright." Flash forward: "Is that Time Lord code for 'I'm really not alright.'" (Minor spooler but not really.

Sarah Jane Smith!!!!!! I hated K-9 in the day but this episode made me love it.

It is hard to pick my favorite. I was sucked in by Jon Pertwee. Raised on Tom Baker. I dropped out (not his fault!) with Peter Davison. I almost ignored the reboot because I could not imagine it working. But then on a flight to Germany I saw part of the three part sequence with David Tennant and The Master. I was hooked. But I went back and watched the reboot from scratch. At first my then wife and step-daughter had no interest. So I watched it while my now ex got ready for bed. But she started seeing parts of it if she finished her preparations before the episode was over. She got sucked in. Then for years the whole family would be devoted to the show. It is hard not to hold Tennant as my favorite (sorry, Tom Baker). But in some ways I think Eccleston and Capaldi were the best actors. Sadly Capaldi mostly had bad scripts. I think the worst have to be the actors during the demise of the classic show. Not sure it is the actors' fault. I think the network was giving up on it. The best moments all have Alex Kingston!

Eccleston's big "NO!" speech is one of the best speeches EVER. The reveal of who is really behind satellite 5 has a MUCH bigger impact with people who watched classic Who.

"i am the bad wolf, i create myself." damn this line... i almost fell from my sofa hearing it the first time.

The face of Bo. Typical of Dr. Who...introduce a major character that isn't a major character but...

The Doctor will always feel alone on the inside... she says he does it all alone, he has been alone for a very, very long time

Willow the Bambi Slayer.

Joyce Summers' death on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Henry Blake's death on M*A*S*H, and Tony Stark's death in Avengers End Game hits me in the feels everytime I watch them. Dante Hicks' death in Clerks 3 as well.

EMT's only take living patients to the hospital. They don't take deceased bodies to the morgue. That's the coroner's responsibility.

Jenny eventually came back in a series of audio dramas :)
