    In case you didn’t already look it up for yourself, the actor playing Maestro is known as Jinkx Monsoon. She’s a beloved and pretty well known drag queen as she won the title “Queen of All Queens” on RuPaul’s Drag Race a few years ago (you should check out her Snatch Game competition she’s freaking hilarious). She’s also now a Broadway star in addition to being a transgender icon for many, myself included. Jinkx being in Doctor Who in a role like this is just perfect and a dream come true for her I’d bet. I really hope this isn’t the last we’ve seen of the Maestro.

    The year the episode Susan left in was _released_ in 1964. However, in-universe, the time the Doctor left her in was at least 2164. The Doctor finds a calendar with that date, but as he says the room hasn't been used in years, it's likely much later than that.

    19:42 The Doctor did do something at the beginning of the last episode after he stepped on a butterfly. He initiated something like a Butterfly Effect Protocol or something.

    I’m an Olde Schoole Fan, & I bloody loved it! Though I also tend to be absurdly fond of anything that expands/shakes up the canon. (While at the same time being thrilled that they brought up Susan!*)
    Plus the Toymaker’s Pantheon is brilliant. Reminds me of an absurdist/creativity-based version of The Endless from The Sandman.
    And Ncuti is definitely playing the Doctor as a genuine soul: human, Time Lord, or a foundling from another universe - just a person who meets you at a relatable emotional place.
    And the ‘twist’ at the end makes me happy on multiple levels!
    [*Susan, in the television canon, was dropped off in 2167 without having a Tardis of her own. Now she did have adventures in other media… and in ‘Dimensions in Time’, though many take that episode to be a cheese-induced nightmare of the Doctor. (Not me - I was just thrilled to get to see the Seventh Doctor again!) But there is no reason why someone close to the Doctor (say Leela or Romana) couldn’t have dropped her off a Tardis of her own or rescued her after David’s death.]

    😊❤ OK I gotta make this statement. So I went on UA-cam to find a varied array of other reviews for these episodes just to see what everyone else is kinda feeling about the show and I am surprised at how many negative reactions there are to it. I am enjoying the positive vibe that Ncuti is giving for the doctor and what Russell T Davies is wanting to do with this particular series. I know we’re used to the doctor being doom and gloom and and always trying to save the universe cause it’s so dark but I find this very refreshing that wanting to bring happiness back to the universe and to have a good time. I have had plenty of other incarnations that were either really Science Fiction based or really tech and a lot of drama. But I’ve never West, that it would be the same doctor doing the same things every single time that’s boring. I like variety I like every doctor being different and approaching it which is why I am enjoying this new and I really wish people can see that.

    Longtime fans are probably posting that Susan appeared in “The Five Doctors” anniversary special back in ‘83. William Hartnell had died years before but she’s paired with the actor they cast as the First Doctor for the occasion and interacts with other companions and stuff. It’s fun!
    Susan’s been casually name dropped many times over the years and it always fuels speculation that they’re going to bring her back. When Capaldi’s a college professor you see a picture of River and a picture of Susan on his desk but if you didn’t know who she was it probably went by. For what it’s worth, Carole Ann Ford who played Susan back in ‘63-64 has said that she’d be down for coming back. Stephen Moffat directly addressed the possibility in an interview during his time running the show saying you’d have to come up with a truly awesome story to bring her back with, the implication being that he never did. As much fun as “Power of the Doctor” was and as nice as it was to see Tegan and Ace back, it didn’t necessarily feel ‘earned’ as the saying goes, so I see Moff’s point. 🤔

So we get Donna and Rose like "Donna" "Rose?" "It's great to see you". I think that's the type of crossover moffat thinks if we don't see her this season.

    Fun Easter eggs. Murray gold makes a cameo appearance during the final twist number playing the piano, the music teacher at the beginning of the episode is played by Jeremy limb who is the son of Roger limb who composed for many of classic who’s most famous episodes. The older women who plays clair de lune is played by June Hudson who was the costume designer on season 18 of classic who. Although she has appeared in Wild Blue Yonder, Church on Ruby Road, Space babies and this episode, this is the first episode where Susan (Twist) is credited at the end thus there is a literal twist at the end of the episode.
