Hello girl scouts, it’s time for “Pinned Comment Post Post Ramblings from Future Shayla” - wow this episode fucking rocked huh? It was v v good, best of Ncuti so far and I am excited for what’s to come. There’s also an interview with Steven I quite liked to read, I will link it down in the description.
Again, I have had zero copyright issues and I waited a few days before publishing so if this video goes down I will do my best to get it back ASAP, thank you for your potential patience.
I know Moffat dialogue isn't for everyone, but it just sings to me. Not to mention he's not afraid to write The Doctor as rude/confrontational when appropriate.
I'm just glad we didn't get a joke about the AI going through someone's browser history.
@@SlyAceZetanot gonna lie, I was kinda hoping we would 😅 I love that running gag
@@Jim_The_Fish I'll be honest, that's one of the parts of Moffat's writing I really dislike. I think it's a stupid joke. I'm genuinely glad we didn't hear it.
The Doctor's monologue/conversation with Mundy was dripping with a darkness I was worried we wouldn't get with Fifteen. Especially his delivery of the line, "Do you get-get-get it?" Just... venom and disdain and being fed up with people... exactly the kind of thing Donna was talking about when she said the Doctor needs a companion to keep him from crossing the line. Love it so much!
Ironic considering Mundy, whom the Doctor was addressing
Happens to be his new future friend in the TARDIS 💙💙
@@MatthewCYN15 The actress is, we don't know if Mundy herself is. It could be a Adeola/Martha situation... or an Oswin/Clara situation.
@@ThePatchedVest I know that, just being enigmatic 😂😂
@@ThePatchedVestOr Pompeii Karen vs Amy Pond Karen
Ncuti was so good in this episode. Even just the “Haurgh!” noise he made when Ruby got shot held so much emotion and despair.
"Everywhere is a beach eventually." 🙏 🏖️
Wow, Moffat really just watched the landmine scene in _Genesis of the Daleks,_ said, "what if I stretched this out to 45 minutes", and then somehow made one of the best episodes the show has had in years.
Moffat doing the exact opposite of Moffat, and making it Moffat. What if... the Doctor doesn't run around? What if he literally stays in the exact same place for a whole episode? And... what it, instead of 'just this once, everybody lives' we do 'just this once, everybody dies'? And what if the soldiers aren't the ones making the Doctor's life a nightmare? WHat if this time, soldiers are the victims? Genius episode.
@@MichaelJohnson-kq7qg My brother and I use that altered quote all the time with "Just this once Rose, everybody dies!" in an attempted Eccelston voice. It never fails to make me laugh. Sorry this isn't more relevant to your comment.
@@MichaelJohnson-kq7qg if you think about it, whole Moffat's writing is like this. What if the Doctor is all alone locked up in a mechanical castle for 45 minutes? What if there's not evil plan at all? What if Doctor died in the first episode of new series?
That's why he's is a true fan of the show and his work on it
I was thinking it was like Flatline with the Doctor stuck in one place
14:32
"I'm fine, how are you?"
"Hey, who turned out the lights?"
That was my thought, too - it sounded like the data ghosts from the Library. And the villengard factories were mentioned in The Empty Child story - the Doctor talks about how he replaced the factories with a banana grove. (Villengard also gets a menton in Twice Upon A Time - it's where Rusty lives). Loving all the references.
@@MichaelJohnson-kq7qg Bananas are good.
I was so worried that the 15th Doctor would be happy and joyous all the time with none of the dark edge the Doctor is known for.
I am SO glad to be wrong. Ncuti is the fucking Doctor baby!
I love how Ruby just goes off. Need to distract boogyman? Picks up pipe and starts banging and yelling. Needs to attract murderous ambulance? No problem, picks up gun and starts shooting and yelling. This episode has so much going on even though everything happens in that one space and the Doctor is literally stuck on the spot. The acting was excellent all round.
Ruby is the epitome of "Get shite done and over with"
The phrase "we are so back" has never been more relevant. Love this episode, love your reactions! :)
I loved that she made the reference to The Eleventh Hour with the "Basically... run"
And right after, the chapter mades a reference to the same episode with the fact that the doctor likes "fish fingers and custard"
“Young man, don’t you know,
there’s more to life than the moon and the president’s wife?"
I loved that. Such a great callback considering the Doctor is known to have stolen both of them.
I like to think the woman he was talking about was either his mother or the barn's caretaker we saw in Hell Bent. (Or maybe they're the same person?)
I love how Moffat uses these tiny allusions to the Doctor's youth to paint of picture of how he understands them. He has a very clear picture of who the Doctor is and why they do what they do and he only reveals tiny snippets of that picture at a time.
"Harry I'm standing on a land mine"
Do you ever think about watching Classic Who?
Doctor “I forbid this”
Ruby “Yeah, good luck with that”
Ruby came in to her own for me in this episode
that whole scene was very 12-and-Clara.
@@MichaelJohnson-kq7qg yes!
Boom is such a great episode! Had me on the edge of my seat the entire time, even I was afraid to move! And I loved how many tropes/Easter eggs there were to moffat’s era (especially “killing” the companion, such a classic Moffat move!)
I was a little afraid after the first two episodes that DW was going to be cutesy and Disneyfide but then this: absolutely proper DW - tense, scary, thought provoking, funny, human, ... Just WoW! Well done, Moffat. More like this please RTD.
This was definitely Ncutis show case episode the same way that Capaldi had Listen, Matt had The Eleventh Hour, Tennant had Girl in the Fireplace, Ecclestone had Dalek… I just wish Jodie had one of her own
I think Villa Diodotti was hers, imho.
Speaking of being full of references to Moffat's past work in Doctor Who; Villengard was first mentioned in The Empty Child / The Doctor Dances, they made Jack's Sonic Blaster and the Doctor suggests he was responsible for blowing up their factories (there is also a comic showing the War Doctor taking down their factories during the Time War). And in Twice Upon a Time both the First and Twelfth Doctors go to Villengard to find Rusty (the "good" dalek).
Moffats back! and...... of course he kills our companion. god damn it lol. funny how we didnt see his favorite theme back in the library seemingly killing donna in episode 1 then killing river at the end.
7:12
“I’m fine, how’re you?
I’m fine, how’re you?”
It’s giving…
“Donna Noble has left the library. Donna Noble has been saved.”
Best episode of the series so far. And yes, this was the episode with the lines where Ncuti proved he could pull off the darker, more serious side of the Doctor. It just felt like a more 'classic' Doctor Who episode and I really enjoyed it. No idea who the old woman is at this point - not a clue.
Steven Moffat: "I didn't wanna write a episode that was just a bunch of references to my old stuff
*watches episode*
"But i ended up doing just that right down to fish fingers and custard.... which was 14 years ago now!"
Don't forget the moon and the President's wife!
The similarities between Ruby and Clara in this episode are real
I would say Ruby is a bit more youthful and has a "get shite done" attitude (her smacking the pipes and yelling Bogeyman, and grabbing and firing the gun in the air)
Plus her story seems more enigmatic than Clara.
Please don't compare her to Clara. I think Ruby is so much better.
@@AmyWarriorPrincess I like both
Except for the fast talk (no one matches Clara on that)...
@@AmyWarriorPrincess Clara was great, all her versions!
Moffat came back for 47 minutes and made sure to kill the new companion before he left, absolute madman
I don't think I breathed for the whole episode
Right? I felt SO tense even though I knew the Doctor and Ruby would survive.
the old woman in the ambulance is played by the actress Susan Twist. There's always a twist at the end
Two things to mention; Varada Sethu who plays Mundy Flynn returns next year as an additional companion. Susan Twist who plays The Ambulance has also appeared in Wild Blud Yonder, Church on Ruby Road, Space Babies and The Devils Chord
I watched the episode the second it came out and I have been WAITING for your reaction bc I just knew you would have THOUGHTS for days. Your reactions have become part of my Doctor Who watching experience at this point
That 3000+ year age reminded me of the voting booth in the Beast Below which gave Amy's age. I took it at the time to mean that there was no record of Amy's death in the British records (and, as we find out later, there wouldn't have been given when and where she died). Seems like this might be something similar.
We have our first bonafide classic of the new era! Last week was great, but nobody beats Moffat.
So glad you're still reacting to this show! You ways seem so engaged with the episodes; it makes them really fun to watch.
I watched the episode just yesterday. The moment when the Doctor says "I forbid you" to Ruby, reminded me to Eleven in The Eleventh Hour: "Do I have a face no one listens to? Again?"
The face of the Ambulance is one we've seen in Wild Blue Yonder, and every one of Ncuti's episodes so far.
Typically RTD, giving her a more prominent role at this stage so that if you haven't noticed so far, when she appears next time, you will go "hold on, isn't that..." getting you on board for the build up to...
...and then I watch the post-reaction ramblings.
That'll learn me to read the Post Post Ramblings...
Man, Moffat came back for ONE episode and went after the Catholic Church, AI, the Military Industrial Complex, Healthcare and the matter of Soul vs Mind in 46 minutes of television. DAMN that man is good!
Having said that, I also find it funny that to calm himself down, The Doctor thought of The Master telling him about the president's wife... Or at least I think it was The Master...
As for your question in the description: FULL crackhead theory, if the recurring old woman is a Regenerated Susan, and she DOES turn out to be Ruby's Mom, it would be hilarious that she's traveling the universe with her Great-Grandfather...
If not, I stand by my "Mother Nature" theory!
What I loved is that there was no way the Doctor was going to die, but I was tense the whole freaking episode because HE was tense. Great job emoting, Ncuti.
Love your reactions - you're one of my favourite Doctor Who reactors, I feel like you cut this one a wee bit short though - a 1 hour episode edited to 8:40 :(
Anti-Capitalist Doctor Who is back and I couldn't be happier
So happy for this, after Kerblam
More anti war than anti capitalist
@@jplegend98 It can be both. The episode specifically touches on how weapons manufacturering companies are financially motivated to make sure war is occurring, as when there's war, there's profits
@@alex6027 which also occured in communit and facist nations. Audi, bmw, hugo boss, volkvagan, alekeyev central, kalashnikov, kgb, avangard ect
@@jplegend98 And guess what economic model the fascists used lmao. The Soviets on the other hand fought in WW2 to destroy the threat of Nazism, not to profit from war.
The Ambulance kept asking for Ruby’s next of kin made me wondering that Ruby is more special than people think she is. She did not have a history, did not know where she came from and she did not have a good future as well. The Ambulance knew Ruby’s info cuz it stated her name and her age (which from this we know that Doctor and Ruby are in a distance future, approx. 3000 years), but it did not know her next of kin. Maybe it because that she did not have any next of kin due to travelling with the Doctor and something will happen to her.
This episode was the type of traumatic I have grown to expect from doctor who and yet my heart was in my stomach the whole time
Imaginative Ruby, Sunday is the doctor when he first was born before he ever went to Gallagher
Who's the old woman... Well... You know what they say... There's always a twist at the end... In the credits... Hehe. :-) love your reactions as usual. :-)
Love your enthusiasm, have subscribed
Theory time:
Has anyone else noticed how the Doctor keeps crying in relation to Ruby’s abandonment? In The Church on Ruby Road, Carla asks him why he’s crying and it’s never really made clear. Obviously a child being abandoned is sad and the Doctor has his own past to confront in that respect, but I feel like there’s more to it. I’m wondering if Ruby has more to do with the Doctor than we think. Not just the child of some random baddie of old etc. But more to do with more recent storylines. Thoughts?
Loved this episode, but not gonna lie it feels conspicuously like a 12/Clara script that Moffat sat on for years.
To play Devil's Advocate, Moffat has always claimed that he just simply writes for "The Doctor" and not any particular actor/incarnation. And indeed, both 10 and 11 could be very rude and blunt in Moffatt written episodes, it's just that 12's bluntness came off as harsher due to Capaldi's performance, his more husky voice and his very very angry sounding Scottish accent.
I was reminded a bit more of Jamie Mathieson's scripts from the Moffat era that [with the possible exception of Flatline] filtered in themes of anti-capitalism, but Moffat put in past references and repeated phrases/words like 'I'm fine, how are you?' [a bit of a trademark of his]. I will admit, the editing was a bit all over the place where I couldn't understand what was being said at times, and there were a few eccentric moments from the Doctor I honestly didn't like, but this was one of the more tense and sci-fi heavy episodes this show has seen in a while. It was also kinda a one setting thing too.
I feel like this could have slotted perfectly into Series 8/9
Such a good episode!! Ncuti is already one of my favourite doctors 😅 his dynamic with Ruby is great!
Oh my gosh ive never been this early. Anyway ty for doing these!
Ironically, to me this felt a little like Artificial Intelligence reading the scripts to every Moffatt episode and creating an episode based on the recurring themes it picked up on! As Alfred Hitchcock once said, "Self-plagiarism is style".
I don't even hope anymore we get anything else than "The Girl who fell from the stars" or so like people thought Clara Oswald would be something different but I think with Davis Moffat there is a fair chance they simply brought the fairytale back.which is something but different than Alien also that could be indeed intresting if we once upon a time actually would go this way..and theoretically with DW you'd never know at the end of the day. But I go with setting the bar low on most likely and be postive surprised if they surpise me with a different version of events.
Ruby reminded me a lot of Clara in this episode.
I’ve got a dog, he’s called Fred/ My dog is alive, he’s not dead/I love my dog, he loves me too/ I haven’t got a cat, only a dog .
THANKS for this!!!!!
"Callender age" means that it was just calculating how many years between her birth and the current date rather than saying she's over three thousand years old, yeah.
"Callender age" would surely be her age in a small village in Stirlingshire, Scotland... 🤣
"Calender age" though i think you m8ght be right...😀
Can't wait for 73 Yards! This season is amazing so far!
Whoever Ruby is, she has to be linked to this Pantheon of gods that were let into the universe by the salt trick, because her signature feature is the magic snow that doesn't follow the normal rules of the rational universe. Also the secret powerful song. But although she's linked to them in some way, I don't think she is a god(dess) or timelord herself, because the Doctor would have detected that right away. So my theory is that she's human but with some kind of magical origin linked to the Pantheon.
The old woman is played by an actress called Susan Twist, so it might be Russel teasing us that she has something to do with Susan and a plot twist related to her
I haven't seen a video from you in a long time. How've you been?
I wonder who played the ambulance face... could be a... Twist....
This episode might be a top 3 for me
boom, you lookin' for this?
Moffat the master
I'm really liking Ncuti and Millie, they've both really good actors and their energy together is superb. And I agree that Ncuti nailed the serious emotions and line reads here. I really liked this episode, not quite top tier Moffatt, but it's a good one and I like it much more than snot monsters, fart jokes, and song and dance routines. But even Space Babies was more enjoyable for me than most of Chibnall era, and Devils Chord was better again. Boom though is the standout episode of the season so far. Only weak moment for me was how casually Splice reacted to her father as a post mortem hologram.
Shayla Goes Boom
Word of God has it that Susan Twist (the actress) appearing repeatedly is a coincidence. According to a RTD tweet anyway. Allegedly they "ran out of actors" and they liked Susan so kept bringing her back. Not sure I believe it, though. Wouldn't be surprised if whatever it is doesn't pay off until *next* season.
I don't believe him for a second, because that would be insulting if true, as if they couldn't find any other actors with Disney money.
She can't be in every episode, playing a character that is an anagram of TARDIS, and only be a coincidence...
Ther are approximatley 110 wars raging in this world atm at least 8 of them could get the label of Genocide if someone with a professional and open mind would look at them. DW shot this Episodes how many months ago´?
It's either logical or creepy af. Obviously wars usually don't start over night and many of them are years if not decades (almost) centuries going on (re-)occuring conflicts..but I was like reading a book about one of those happenings and thought "Oh DW began again, let's see wehre we are here!" 1st Episode in "The Doctors family died of genocide" 3rd Episode literally war...
Uhm what have our Authors been reading and watching?
The old woman? Susan Twist, by actress name?
No idea, but there's always a Twist at the end.
The streak of moffat writing the best episode every series continues I fear
I think the recurring actress is just there so RTD can be a massive troll. I would really like it if there was a Susan Twist, but I don't think it will happen.
Moffat has always written fantastic one off episodes. He fails when he tries to write clever arcs. I hope he does more single eps.
I thought that episode 3 was the best of the series so far.
Mind you, the first two episodes were piles of steaming horse sh1te!!
The Moff killed another companion!
The thing is, is that he kills everyone but never actually kills anyone.
@@PaulKeywood Oh, well, that's alright, then!
@SlyAceZeta I never said it was alright, but yes that's what he does, I don't like it either.
@@PaulKeywood No no, I don't mind one way or the other, I was simply quoting the Toymaker's response to Moffat's kills.
Shayla you actually don’t have to worry about spoilers in the “next time” bit cause they are really short and don’t really give you much
Doctor Who's first satire of US society and they get Disney to fund it! 😁
Not the first. The first was in Space Babies, when The Doctor said "The law required babies to be born but not taking care of the babies after they are born?"
"""RUBY"""is actually """RIVER SONG"""🤗🤗🤗🤗
More News On Doctor Who The Ratings For Boom Have Gone Down From Last Week. overnight audience of 2.04 million on BBC One iaccording to BARB
This episode was typical boring Moffat no one dies, an annoying kid, no villains and a copy from a Tom Baker story with the Doctor standing on a land mine this was just crap.
Three people die - the kid's father, Mundy's friend who just managed to say he loved her and the redshirt at the beginning who was there to show us where the mine was.
Is there a reason you're going to reaction channel after reaction channel to say the same whiny crap? If you don't like it, don't watch it. It's easy.
@@robvanriot I'm entitled to an opinion if I don't like something I'm not going to bend the knee and pretend I like something when I didn't I'll flat out say what I think because people don't like to hear the truth granted I like Dr. Who been a passionate fan since 1963 but I don't like what RTD and Disney are doing to it their butchering what made the show great "Space Babies" was utter crap "The Devil's Chord" was good I enjoyed that one I said nothing negative about that last week but this week's episode was a biring soap with mo storytelling other than moffat nostalgia I watch the reactions to see their response so I'll comment about things just like everyone else and we're aloud to give our freedom of speech of the episode. So it'll watch and make a comment so if you don't like truth don't read. If you enjoyed it good for you but I thought it was garbage.
