thinking about donna's line in the direct address prologue. "it's like a storm in here... about to break."
the oncoming storm, perhaps?

this shit that the doctor can do with his sonic now is so marvel, and it feels very intentionally so. this is doctor who playing in the idiom of marvel movies, and adapting a comic story to boot. i'm not sure how i feel about the hard light shields??? but i also kind of love how brazen it is as A New Thing. i think we might be seeing the doctor fully transition into becoming a wizard. the merlin prophecy is coming true right before our eyes

the doctor has entered his miss frizzle era

it's crazy that all the guns in this show are firing tiny explosives to get the bullet spark practically! they made a machine gun for snappers!

the thesis of this episode is that saving the uk is worth it if it means saving the life of one trans kid

@sarahzedig havent watched this ep yet, will do tomorrow, but yeah that seems to fit with the thing i saw RTD saying about 14 being "more human" than 10
@sarahzedig this is so incredibly real. especially since ive heard ncuti gatwa is gonna have different outfits each episode.
@laika @sarahzedig oh thats so good to hear. the tan leather jacket ive been seeing in recent promos was really underwhelming compared to the couple of prior outfits id seen him in. i was worried theyd changed course and made him go with a more subdued look
outfit spoilers
@gutters0451 @laika @sarahzedig nah DEFINITELY dont worry there are set pics of him in a kilt recently
outfit spoilers
@callieroxy @gutters0451 @sarahzedig oh SERVE oh my god?

@callieroxy @laika @sarahzedig YESSSSSS

@sarahzedig incorrect. You evacuate the trans kids and let the UK explode

@sarahzedig i absolutely love that meep was a physical actual puppet on set.
(also holy fuck ive never seen a camera drone that big)
Riley!
the star beast
@engineerjulia @sarahzedig yeah the puppet acted as the base and then they used vfx for the lip-sync and expression which is really clever and looked gorgeous in motion

when rose calls him out for assuming meep's pronouns. compare this moment to when 10 was insulting mickey for screaming like a girl. this is such a Choice i love it
