    It's pretty cool when you can see the doctors natural resilience. As a time Lord he's actually pretty hard to damage so seeing him shrug off dangerously low levels of oxygen is cool to see.

      @charlesshepherd7521 3 роки тому +149

      There's been other episodes where the doctor has claimed to be able to survive on very little oxygen. Including the ability to go into a special trance to increase this further. Of course... this was classic who... so the trance just looked like overdramatic hyperventilating. But I'd like to think the doctor could do that in this situation to avoid passing out long enough to get the machine working before any of the humans develop brain damage. (Which I believe would happen after about 6 minutes without oxygen based on first aid training I did years ago)
      So yeah. I'm a nerd. And I'm gonna own it.

    "You're relieved, soldier." is a pretty underrated line. The poor Foretold wasn't a killer, he was a soldier, probably a brave, honorable soldier who fought for wherever it was he came from or whoever it was he was sworn to protect. He never wanted to hurt anyone who didn't deserve it, and the Doctor set him free. And now he can rest easy, believing that he helped win the war he fought in so long ago.

      Yeah, that might be what the episode was trying to show: PTSD and how some people don’t even know it exists, the Foretold symbolises PTSD, when it killed people and no one else could see it, that symbolised ignorance, and the ending, where everyone can see it symbolises awareness, think about it. You can’t run away from the Foretold, just like how you can’t run from PTSD, and the people’s deaths represent the higher chance of a person killing themselves from PTSD, and the Foretold’s freedom represents getting help from others on how to stop it.

      Many Japanese soldiers refused to believe their country had surrendered after the nukes and maintained their guard posts for decades after, fighting the war that was long lost.
      For one soldier, they had to track down his old commanding officer to relieve him of duty... 50 years after the war ended.

    This is the brilliance of Doctor Who. The horrors and monsters are absolutely disturbing and grotesque beyond human comprehension, shrouded in mystery and that ever-present factor of the Unknown that makes them all the more primally frightening. But the Doctor is the voice of Intellect and Heroism, and he demonstrates ultimately the valiant ability of the mind to subjugate even the most mysterious and horrifying monsters to Reason and thus defeat them. Deep-seated Heroism and Intellect, that is the Doctor, and that's what made the show great.

    Not only is this my favorite episode from this season, this quickly became one of my favorite Who episodes of all time - and I've seen most of them. It has the pace, style, and attention to characterization of the modern series but with a solid, airtight plot that could have come out of the Tom Baker golden age. The moment where Capaldi steps in isn't just the moment where the actor really became the Doctor for me (although it was) - it's also the moment where the modern Doctor truly, finally connected fully with the originals.
