Doctor Who Last Christmas Review

Plot Summary (Spoiler warnings)
In short we were subjected to a interesting multiple dream within a dream scenes all at the north pole or were they. The film influences for this episode were Alien face huggers for the glorious hands/ Dream Crabs  which were very scary and excellently done.
The Ring with the Aliens walking threw the TV. An Nightmare on Elm Street if you die in a dream you are died in real life, the Wizard of Oz  there is no place like home , Miracle on 30th Street the Actor who played Santa is called Nick Frost and this Santa was badass but wanted everyone to believe in him(very well done Moffat)
It's a wonderful life what would Clara's life be like if the Doctor never returned to her and last Inception many dreams in a dream. The was also a reference to My little Pony. In short this Christmas specail felt like opening a very familiar Christmas stocking full of films you had watch before. It was fun but overall unsatisfactory but the episode did resolve the Danny save and Gallifrey found lie between the Doctor and Clara. 

Clara
Clara was more whinny, needy than ever and she will not die or leave. Clara spent the episode mooning over the lose of Danny and 11th Doctor. Move on already.
Spoiler Alter she will be back for season Nine!I was touched by the Doctor pulling a cracker with the older Clara as it linked to last year's 11th Doctor and Clara cracker scene nicely.  Horraay for platonic love.  

Danny
Was a nice dream chap. I really feel that he should have had some adventure s in the Tardis. It would have been fun. But no still dead.

Doctor 
Peter Capolid captures the Doctor and he shines. He had a last a balance between the light moments and his great serious,  dark, edgy moment's which were great like driving the  santa sledge like 10th Doctor and 11th Doctor respectly.  Why do all the Doctor's have to have the same experiences now? 

Nick Frost's Santa was a badass, bad mouthing, sarstic, Chrimbo dude with a touch of warm winter wine for extar feels. He owned the role.

Random Explores/ scientists (not either of these things)
Were just the normal random mix of guys and girls from the movie Alien or a random explore film. Good characters, loved the Turkey leg scene and the sexy older lady in a wheelchair. The head scientist was great and had a well defined strong female role with intelligence dialogue; shame about Clara who was reduced to screaming female and sent into danger.

Overall one of the best scary episode in ages but in short like Bobby in tge Shower it was all a dream.  Too much Inception for my liking but the Alien references were excellent and creepy. Love the Dream crabs, slash Hand huggers.


I will get around to reviewing Season 8 11 /12 Dark Water and Death in Heaven when I have calmed down.

Dr Who Season 8 Episode 9 Flatline

Plot Summary

In short people disappear because 2 alien from another dimension are learning about humans and bring 3D! This episode is not one for the younger kids! Very creepy and scary! Love the monster design and the supporting cast is great!  This episode is dark as it has a group of community service men as the supporting roles. The lighter stuff happens in the Tardis and to it as it shrinks down with the Doctor in it full size also love it's new defence mode. 

Clara

Clara takes the lead as she has to be the Doctor for a day. Clara bossy and asks the right questions which rightly worries the Doctor! 

Doctor

Peter performance in this one us hus best yet and very funny with a dark twist! 

Rigzy

Excellent supporting role as Clara's companion. But could the show be saying the Doctor just uses his companion as tools and not as people who he is showing the universe to? 
Danny was sweet and needy but supportive! 

Rating

I give this episode 4/5 and a high scare rating!

Dr Who Season 8 Mummy on the Orient Express

Plot Summary 
A mystery on a train with the foretold! When passagers start dieing can the Doctor help!  Love the Mummy monster! At last an episode which makes the Doctor the main character. 
 Is it Clara's last trip? We can only hope! 

Doctor 
Brilliant performance!   
Clara 
Conflicted and angry with all the death. Clara really needs to wake up and understand that the Doctor constant companion is death! 
Danny has a nice comforting cameo which is well played and sensible.  

Over all a great mystery, great support cast and a great monster, shame about Clara!
 Love the period details. 
Ratings 5/5

Dr Who Season 8 Kill the Moon

Summary

Dr Who does an abortion metaphor as the moon is an egg and the creature within the moon has started to hatch! The moon has spider antibodies which are killing the crew of a save earth space mission. The space mission from the future has nuclear bombs on it which have to be activated by turning the bombs on first and then using a detonater to cause the bombs to blow up. The Doctor takes Courtney as a way of apologising to her and Clara. The future space crew has an middle aged women and 2 older men. One man gets sent back to turn the bombs on and he gets eaten by the spiders so the bombs will not work anyway. The other man dies exploring a dark old space craft that was part of research mission. 

Doctor Is excellent in this as he allows the 3 women an 9 ls women,  a teenager and a women in her twenty to make the choice by themselves as he knows it is not his choice to make.

Courtney was great in this uploading the Doctor pictures to Tumbler. Love it! 

Clara for a women how has saved the doctor she was really annoying in this as he leave them to choose and she gets offended!  Does not she know he would have come back for them? 

I really enjoyed this episode great story, tension and dark edge which makes it an episode not for younger viewers.  
Rating 5/5 

Dr Who Season 8 The Caretaker

Summary

In short a robot solider has landed and its trying to follow it's basic programming of killing humans near Susan Foreman's old school!

Bad luck for Clara and Danny who work there. The Doctor goes undercover as the Caretaker to save the day! But does he? 

Danny

Great development of his character but still him and Clara's relationship is awakard! Danny and the Doctor's relationship is one of rivalry and respect which is odd. Loved his jump to the rescue!  

Clara

Will she leave the Doctor for Danny? Won't she argument.  Does she like being put in danger by him? Is Clara stupid because she was put in danger by the Doctor in the second half of season 7 and she did not ask this question. So why is she now minding all of a sudden?  

Doctor

Great work from Peter Capolid here, love his relationship with Courtney Woods. 

Moffat

What is with the 11th Doctor Grief that the show is going though.  Yes, respect 11 but Matt Smith chose to leave!

 Why can't Moffat leave it alone and move on now. YES bow ties were cool, (they still are) but we have a new Doctor now! Who does not need 11th rubbed in his face all the time. But by doing this we do explore Clara feelings for both 11th and Danny. The inclusion of the  11TH Doctor look a like teacher with the curly hair is a odd but seems out of place just a Peter is getting into his stride.   

Courtney

Great Character, we need more pep in Doctor Who not more awfully awkward dates and grumpy conflicted conversations. Where is the fun ? 

Villian was boring and very Sarah Jane Adventures like but the story is in a school.

Ratings

For story 3/4

 For character development 4/4

Dr Who Season 8 Episode 5 Time Heist

Plot Summary

Memory worms are becoming over used but the idea of the Doctor getting a gang and robbing a max security bank is super.
This episode rocks because it is a stand alone story which has losts of great new characters!

The Teller made me flash back to River Song, Rose and even the 11th Doctor story of Hide in Season 7. Glad Tellers were good.

Mutant human called Saibra is clearly a rip of X-Men and the again with the Augmented human called Psi.
But they hold there own and push the  story forward even if they are plot tool characters. 

What is getting old in Doctor Who is killing characters to bring them back again, yawn. We have seen it before.  When will Moffat learn that if the Doctor does not care about a character then the viewer will not; even if Clara pretends to care because lets face it the Doctor companions never like to compete for his attention.  Both of these new character were cool and I hope they get a come back.

Bank Security
Ms Delphox the Head of Security as a clone of Director Karabraxos 'the clone burner' was awesome and had real depth to her and in the end we feel for her because the Doctor does. Perhaps he understands her as he too burns his lives one after another, always moving forward not looking back.

Clara's level of trust in the Doctor is huge and the emotional cost to her is huge. She needs to like Martha before her let him go.

Dark Doctor very scary and yet he was very funny in this episode but the villainy of him in this episode is shocking.  I loved it.

Rating 4/5
