That reveal! 😳
Took me ages to figure out what was going on.

It was okay - but a bit worthy. And some bits seemed familiar - the alien queen was a bit like the Empress of the Racnoss, and the ending reminded me of the end of the Van Gogh episode - both of which were done better. Loved seeing Goran Visnjic as Tesla though!

Anyone else think Robert Glennister could play Trump really well?

Housemum · 20/01/2020 11:17

I mostly enjoyed the old fashioned Doctor Who-ness of it but the explanations make it feel like a trendy science programme for schools - get rid of the aliens then a potted history of Tesla.
And I have had the song Tesla Girls going round my head since yesterday...

A few of the recent plots feel a CBBC - or like those educational shows they used to wheel the big telly out at school for. I wouldn't be surprised if they added a nite at the end saying

'If you'd like to learn more about Nikolai Tesla why not visit www.pottedhistoryandpreaching.co.uk'

I've just read that the actress playing the Skithra Queen was Rani in The Sarah Jane Adventures.

I just got distracted by the fact she had a Midlands accents. The prosthetics were very impressive though.

Loved Goran Visjnic in that episode. I am not generally loving this season so far though. The episodes so far have had more than a touch of deja vu about them.

@Iklboo 😂

Sums up the 13th Doctor perfectly

HeyAssbutt · 20/01/2020 21:16

Just caught up with last nights episode. Loved Goran Viscnic as Tesla. The aliens were a bit meh. As pp have said the queen was very similar to the racnos. I'm getting tired of all the earth based episodes now. And again next week. Had high hopes for this series but it's starting to decline again. Might need to watch some david Tennant and matt smith to make me feel better

Aah lovely Luca.

mogloveseggs · 26/01/2020 19:59

Woo hoo he's back!

mogloveseggs · 26/01/2020 20:01

And he's gone again Confused

iklboo · 26/01/2020 20:29

I enjoyed that episode.

Undervaluedandsad · 26/01/2020 20:33

Best episode for a while.

TheDrsDocMartens · 26/01/2020 20:34

Loved it

JayAlfredPrufrock · 26/01/2020 20:37

Jack is back.

Or Jack was back.

Lord love him.

Forestwitch · 26/01/2020 20:38

Roundels, they're back and so is Jack...I think.

EmpressLangClegInChair · 26/01/2020 20:39

Captain Jack Harkness?

DesireesChild · 26/01/2020 20:44

I'm only up to the Dregs episode - dire.

The 3 companions are unimitigatedly awful. Dull, dim, gormless, boring and pointless. It's impossible to work out which is the worst.

Gluetap · 26/01/2020 20:45

Does anyone know where the lighthouse in today’s episode is? My Dr Who obsessed 9 year old DS is compiling a list of places to visit!

JayAlfredPrufrock · 26/01/2020 20:49

We thought it was on the Severn. But could be wrong.

HeyAssbutt · 26/01/2020 20:56

Excuse my French but WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?! How can she be the doctor as well? Anyhow I may have squealed when Jack came back. God I love him. More more more!!

RustyBear · 26/01/2020 21:03

If anyone remembersThe Brain of Morbius, a Tom Baker storyfrom the classic series, there was a scene in that which has caused a lot of speculation over the last 44 years, which just might be about to be explained...

Forestwitch · 26/01/2020 21:03

Looks like 'West Usk Lighthouse'. It's a B&B and has it's own TARDIS ;-)
