    I absolutely adore the "I'm so done with this shit" expression on 14's face when the Toymaker arrives. Bear in mind that earlier within the same in-universe week, 13 had been subjected to a dance routine set to Boney M's Rasputin, courtesy of The Master.
    EDIT: According to a recently released excerpt of the officially licensed novelization of "The Giggle" (written by James Goss and due for release in January of 2024, alongside novelizations of the other two 60th Anniversary Specials), the 14th Doctor's adventures - from the moment he comes into being at the end of "The Power Of The Doctor", to the comic strip story "Liberation Of The Daleks" (which covers the first hour of his life, prior to the 2023 Children In Need minisode), and right on through to the end of "The Giggle" - span a grand total of 15 hours from his perspective. That just makes this whole scene even funnier.
    EDIT #2: Just wanted to say thanks for the likes. I've never received so many on a comment before.

    the turn into balloons is probably one of the most painful ways to die because knowing the Toymaker, they still feel every aspect of their body as ballons and now each piece is so out of place they can feel their body everywhere. Not to mention the Doctor said they are dead because their bodies will pop which means they probably felt every piece of their bodies explode as each balloon popped.

He only killed them because they started the fight first. Perhaps to him that was the game, and they were idiots who deserved to lose because they challenged him to a 'fight to the death' game without first assessing the capabilities of their chosen opponent.

      The problem here is that to them, he looks like a regular human. He threw her against a wall, so she wanted to detain him since he was now problematic, and the soliders were simply listening to their commander.
      When she finds out that he killed them, things escalate drastically. A "human" just killed two of her men, so she fights back with full force. She has no way of knowing that this is a god-like, reality-altering being because he looks and moves like a human (Weird doors and music aside which can simply be passed off as technology). She's used to fighting Daleks and Cybermen, but this is just a regular person - How hard could it be?

    He doesn't have to do this either. the Toymaker can warp reality any which way he likes. He can just appear and be all menacing. He could've dragged everyone back to the 20s to have the final game be there. He could've taken the Doctor and Donna to 2023 himself instead of having them rush to the TARDIS to chase him. But no. He gives an ominous warning, sets them running and then decides to barge into UNIT HQ to the tune of early 2000s pop music. Just because he is the Toymaker and he can do that.

      From the perspective of such an immortal, there's no such thing as murdering a human. There's just hurrying up the inevitable. Dead today, dead in fifty years of natural causes, makes no difference. Why do the silly humans get so upset about it?

      She doesn’t know it but 14 invoking the salt superstition at the edge of reality is what gave him the power to come through in the first place.

    The most terrifying thing for the Doctor to have to admit at this point is that it is "fortunate" that only 2 people died, and only because they directly engaged the Toymaker. He could've easily killed everyone in that room, whimsically. The Doctor is probably counting his blessings that the death toll was as low as it was, especially given how helpless he is to help them.
    With "normal" villains who follow the rules of the universe, he can try to save people, reverse whatever harm has been done to them. But the Toymaker follows a completely different set of rules from the rest of the universe, so undoing his actions might be beyond the Doctor's ability.

      @@bandersnatch9469 It's a good episode, and used elsewhere as well, because it captures something about the essence of children. Not the happy smiling innocent child of most depictions. Real children: They are little psychopaths. Selfish, short-sighted, morally-immature little monsters who would burn down the school and everyone in it just so they could stay home and watch TV. Their destructive nature is only contained by their powerlessness - they have neither the physical strength to overcome an adult, nor the experience and cunning to commit the crimes they fantasise about. So if you give a child character real power, you've got a ready-made monster.
