229And, of course, I can't help but remember the 12th💔
AND OF COURSE THE ENDING!!! Wilf, we missed you.😭 And explosions at the end!!! Something grandiose is planned, we are really waiting for the toymaker!
In general, 10/10. Very much in the spirit of the old doctor
And immediately:"Well, it's clear, that's right, all the references are in place.";
To be left without a TARDIS and without a screwdriver, that's a risky venture xxx
- What was that?
- Some kind of noise.
- Thank you, you helped me a lot :D
The Doctor and Donna are in the same episode together without other characters - oh, yes! What was needed!
The graphics of some moments, of course, really returned to the tenth) The detective component is also straight from there, and it was the atmosphere of this series that I liked more than the previous one. I rested my soul and returned at the same time) The aliens with their long arms, jaws and all that brought back memories of the first seasons (but in the best sense).
The insanely sad story of the ship's captain. What a sacrifice for the sake of all living things :with And a very cool interaction between the Doctor and Donna. Being literally in the "void" is a strong move, I love that. Of course, it was funny that he left her at the end, in the end she was saved by the fact that the TARDIS calculated the difference in wrist length :D
Uiiilf! How glad I am to meet you!
However...The Doctor scattered salt at the edge of the universe and the Earth went crazy...Something strange, but still very interesting :)
And, of course, the long-awaited Allons-y!
A remix of Midnight with an admixture of a two-part series about Flesh and the Day of the Doctor (a line about zygons).
Did I like the series? Yes. Was I worried about Donna, who was left behind? Yes.
Everything is great.
A couple of things I didn't like:
1) the tempo was compressed at the end, I'd rather throw out the scene with Isaac Newton to hell. Out of place at all. And I added these couple of moments to the ending, where the Doctor somehow drives away the non-Donna in a more interesting way. There would be more drama to put the squeeze on here!
2) This series could have gotten 5 points from me, if not for the long tongue of RTD (for which no one pulled it) and the director, who gasped and groaned that it was hard. What's hard? Should I keep a greenscreen for David and Catherine? Or maybe make stretchable body parts? Oh, yes, there was no such thing (season 6 - wink wink). Or maybe a copy-shifter? Oh, yes, the first one was gone at Midnight, and the second one was gone on Doctor's Day. In short, fewer words and more business is needed, and it's better to keep the ENT of the series in mind.
3) Strange passages through the Doctor himself. "We are at the edge of the universe -this has never happened before." BRO, JUST A COUPLE OF EPISODES AGO WITH TEKTEYUN! And then he tells about the Fluxus himself. Is that what it is? What for?
In short, damn, fuck RTD with his comments. I won't read anything by episode 3.
It seems that there is still some slight illogicality.
Plus, it's very strange that in the Flax it was really shown as from edge to edge - they had the old universe behind them. And then they said that there was no light, because the stars were very far away. It turns out that in the Distance they were in the void then? Is the Bottle still on the edge?
As I understand it, it depends on which dimensions to look at. He has never been on the edge of our physical universe, for example.
And Flax is generally in another dimension.
Then they posted this in the DC magazine itself:
In the magazine’s episode preview, the “Starring” section lists “David Tennant, Catherine Tate, [REDACTED], [REDACTED], [REDACTED]”
The names ended up being that woman with Newton, Newton and Wilf at the end. Everyone (especially in the Anglophandom) imagined who would be there. My MAXIMUM bets were modest, some kind of eyeliner in the spirit will save someone from the ship, maybe some character from DC, who will be needed in the 3rd cycle. Or maybe Jokey will light up at the end of episode 2 (and Wilf lit up - although it's a pity that this was the only scene for all three episodes, he won't be in the third)
That's why I have complaints about the marketing of this series. In general, RTD is on his mind and likes to praise himself in public, so it would be right to ignore what he says and look at the fact. Unfortunately, I didn't know about this, because for seasons 1-4, DC wasn't particularly interesting to me from a production point of view and I didn't listen to what he was broadcasting there.
Specifically about the director - he either jokingly or seriously whined a little and said "the one who will shoot it will not be lucky," and then it turned out that they wanted to give him this script and he groaned that it was hard and no one had ever shot this before.
And I still didn't understand what I wasn't filming? There were stretching body parts in DC, there were scenes with "clones" (the same flesh, the same Day of the Doctor in the black archive). And they also dared to say in a documentary about the shooting that there was no such thing in DC or in any other TV project, and that made me laugh.
What did we see that was fundamentally new?
Again, I'm not saying that the elements don't work or are harmful to the series - on the contrary, everything works fine. I'm just saying that the promotion is too loud and bold, with all the elements that have already been there. But with expectations, there is just a smaller problem, of course, that RTD apparently does not know how to work with the expectations of the audience, but it is also the fault of the audience if they wrote something down there in [REDACTED].
Well, the director clarified on Twitter before the show that the secrecy was not due to the return of someone, but to watch and not have any clues about what would happen next, so that it would be more interesting (for me it turned out that way)
The distance, of course, is very similar to Midnight. In some ways, Midnight is even scarier, because we will never know where this thing came from. But the distance is still amazing..... I love the reference to Marvin from the Hitchhiker's Guide! I love the fact that, like in a good detective story, all the evidence is collected by you! I figured it all out a little bit before the Doctor-and that's great.
It is a pity that the Doctor, despite all his newfound openness, still cannot share something with Donna. But on the other hand, at least now he could really admit that he was not okay. It seems like it's bigger than ever.
Is it scary for the thread with gravity — will it become the thing that broke the universe or just a constant joke? 👀
Overnight I krypova i smishna
I was also honored, it was not for nothing that the RTD turned.
Wilf! ❤️
It's just like the Doctor to sprinkle salt on the edge of the universe and-oh...
Mavity is alarming, I hope this is not just a joke, but also has to do with the overall plot, and in the end everything will return as it was.
The "midnight" creep vibe, and the moment when it suddenly turned out that there were doppelgangers – I had SUCH goosebumps.
At the very end, when the Doctor left Donna, I believed for a few seconds that this was all that RTD really arranged for her to end like this. How glad I am that the Tardis figured out the liar, although I am sad that the Doctor did not recognize her himself.
And how unexpected and delightful it was to see Wilf 🥹
I just can't believe that the next episode is already the last with David and Catherine, so I want a whole season with them! Although Joking is also very much looking forward to new stories)
I will not hide that due to the increased secrecy surrounding this particular episode, all the "jubilee" hopes were pinned on him for the return of some previously unknown familiar characters - River Song, the Eleventh Doctor, Dr. "Ruth" the Fugitive, Karvanista, Captain Jack Harkness, Gwen Cooper, the Thirteenth Doctor, Yaz, the Master, Missy, Martha Jones, Amy Pond, Clara Oswald, Vashta Nerada, the main five from the "Class"... Of course, not the whole crowd, but at least someone. The expectations from this mysterious episode were for all 15 out of 10, and unfortunately it did not meet such high expectations.
The anticipation before the "Chuckle" is still beyond the limit, and my poor heart feels that I will cry at the repeated farewell to Donna and on the stage of Tennant's third regeneration.
But if the anniversary returns are really limited to David Tennant and Donna Noble and her family, then it turns out that three special editions in honor of the 60th anniversary of Doctor Who are epic, ONE last episode of the Chris Chibnell era "The Power of the Doctor" in which there were a Master, Daleks, Cybermen, regeneration of the Thirteenth (technically two regeneration of the Thirteenth), Tegan Giovanca, Ace, The First Doctor, The Fifth Doctor, the Sixth Doctor, the Seventh Doctor, The Eighth Doctor, Dr. "Ruth" The Fugitive, Kate Sewart, Ian Chesterton, Melanie Bush, Joe Grant... And yes, it was an anniversary episode in honor of the 100th anniversary of the BBC channel, but still!
Well, the ending of the episode broke my heart 💔
I was very afraid that this reunion would be like 99% of all reunions - it seems to be the same actors, but it is clear that the same chemistry is not even close. How wonderful that this is not the case here at all!
It's a shame, but I hope before leaving this time he will still say that he is ready now...
The creatures were wildly creepy, of course. Especially when they were stretched.
The moment that Donna saw all these 15 years of Doc's life (and I think she did), it's so sad... And I really feel sorry for Doc.
Well, the ending is something! Wilfred!🥺🤩
Give me the next episode. How much time had passed on Earth while Doc and Donna were flying?
and I can agree that part of it is somehow clumsily inscribed in the plot and in places it hurts the eye-a rumor, but in principle you can ignore against the background of other advantages and good things
, but this is not yet a dude who will probably be in the next season, if not in the season, for a combo, so to speak, so whether it will still be :D
The doctor who didn't recognize Donna and almost fried her is a fiasco, bro..
yes, it's a pity all the Doctor's entourage, no one can escape, a new fluh is coming :D
Personally, the series came to me.
I think if I read the comments above, I will immediately see the disadvantages, but it will be later. And at the time of writing this comment, everything is sound.
If you really wanted to get to the bottom of it, then you could remember that a couple of episodes ago in "Flux" the Thirteenth Doctor was with Tekteyun BEYOND the edge of the universe, on the edge of ANOTHER, new universe.
And the Eleventh Doctor was outside the universe in "The Doctor's Wife", he was in the pocket universe in "Hide", and the Tenth was in a parallel universe in "Rise of the Cybermen / Age of Steel". And that's if you don't touch the classics.
Of the cons, I'll single out a weak graphon, but in general, I don't care about it, the series was a success!
The series is good. I was once again convinced that the duet of the Doctor and Donna is one of my favorites in new school. As always, David and Catherine's acting is excellent. Stable: if Donna worries/cries, I worry/cry too.
And Wilf at the end, as they say, "finished it off." It's great that we got to see Bernard Cribbins in this wonderful role once again. Blessed memory to him❤
The promo for the next episode is intriguing. I look forward to plunging into another chaos.
It will be very sad when he leaves again(
I don't want them to leave. I want 3-4 seasons that would be exactly at the level of the released 2 episodes. I was really happy when I was waiting for them, but now I realize that the last episode is coming soon and it means leaving... It's very sad...
the moment where the Doctor liked the fake Donna's answer at the end... and when at first he didn't know the difference between a real and a fake one (about where it came from)... It breaks my heart so much... especially because she figured out the fake Doctor herself...
No kidding. We were promised a horror episode, we got a horror episode. The Doctor's doppelganger has been running to the robot for too long, how convenient it is when the main characters have story armor))
This is definitely not the tenth Doctor-it was especially evident in this episode. He is emotional, open, and sometimes cautious. The exact opposite of the reckless Tenth, and it's Fantastic, seriously! His tantrum when he blurted out a little too much is priceless!!!! Tennant is gorgeous!!God, I adore him!!!
Donna is beautiful!!Finding herself in a new environment with the Doctor, all she thinks about is that she no longer needs these adventures. That she has a loving husband and a wonderful daughter. That's what I call character development and maturation...
He fell from Newton: "What kind of word is this, pulling, shivering, SHIVERING"
After a while, the Doctor:
"Donna, it's gravity.
"What?"
- That is, a vision!
But for the life of me, I'll never understand one thing - why shove blacks at historically white people? What's the joke? It's like putting Keanu Reeves in the role of Barack Obama. I'm sure it will be fun.
And I'm sure Keanu would have made a great Obama, although the example is not entirely legitimate, given that this is the first African-American president, that is, this is a big part of the plot and motivation of the character, it needs an emphasis.
Well, Kamon, it's all theater, in those cases where it's really unprincipled, then what difference does it make how it looks. The series is still historically unreliable, we look at Newton through the eyes of a man from the modern world, ascribe to him modern words, reactions, body language, makeup, "combing" the world of the past - from Augean stables on the streets and some kind of toilets in the main halls. Well, let that imaginary world be racially more diverse than it actually was. And there are other films for a true depiction of history.
It's funny, because in fact we have a two-actor theater here, but there is plenty of action. Graphon, of course, is eyesore. But perhaps such unnaturalness is even for the best. The sinister valley effect, that's it. Some scenes, like the long arms or the huge Doctor and Donna running on all fours, will definitely give me nightmares.
Well, I generally like to mess up when you need to determine where the copy is and where the real one is. It's always fun and interesting.
Tennant is an actor. I was really hooked by the moment when the false Madonna pressed him with memories. He snapped, saying, of course I'm running, because how can I stop, look back and see all that I left behind. Tennant had so much pain on his face. And then when he realized that Donna wasn't real... Goosebumps.
At such moments, you remember that the Doctor is not a guy from the next street, but a millennial time traveler. Who saw more than he needed to.
It's a pity Tennant only dropped by for three episodes. I demand a full season of 10-12 episodes for the Fourteenth. You are welcome.
I liked the insert with Newton, "I'm going to think under the apple tree" – and everything is already clear, and even the trick with "gravity" was brought. Honestly, even if it remains just a joke, I won't be upset.
This series is much more consistently enjoyable and in the spirit of the old RTD seasons
It is very similar to the episode "Midnight" from the distant season 4
By the way, there is a suspicion that Donna made a reference to her with a remark about "they won't sit in a corner and do it calmly"😁
It still doesn't seem to be the level of haste for such a big date, I hope that there will be something so big in the final series that we will remember for a long time
And of course, we will be sad and crying for a long time because of another farewell to Tennant and Tate
And let's fix it:
Wilfred🫡
I think it's impossible to constantly come up with something completely new. And I'm not sure what I need at all. Cinema has grown a hell of a lot over the years, and "The Doctor" is still trying to keep the comfort of penny graphics (in places) and huge artistic assumptions (and we are smart, we see all the plot holes and pianos). Well, let it be. It's a fairy tale. Sometimes scary, dramatic, but a fairy tale. Geek culture does not have to grow old with its fans when the younger generation has already grown up to replace it. They haven't seen enough of us yet, let them enjoy it.
And where was he restricted? You're putting him in a frame.

Well, the Doctor is not gay (but a pansexual hd). In the original, anyway, after "yes, Newton is hot," he said, "Wow, I'm already talking like this" (I don't remember literally). It's more about the fact that he's now outspoken enough to say that. Like with "I love her very much" about Donna in the first special. Without focusing on the fact that he is now so openly interested in guys.
Actually, the old face does not mean the old habits and tastes, and with each regeneration, the Doctor may change them, including orientation, but actually the Doctor must be pansexual, he is an alien, after all, and not a human)
And I will continue to insist that "I'm already talking" not about orientation, but about openness (although even if I am, I don't see any problems with that).
I couldn't watch this episode at night, it was scary, it was calmer in the light of day. But how damn cool! My Doctor is back!💕 Meditation!😂
Alien creatures are frightening and unusual. The phrase my arms are too long is added to other famous ones: don't blink, you're my mom, hey who turned off the light.. For a moment I felt like a child watching a doctor for the first time, no boring shooting. You're waiting to see what happens next. Even the rusty robot added atmosphere.
The breaking Doctor, this also outlined the features of a new character. I never thought that my beloved doctor would return and this is an amazing feeling. Back to the future, forward to the past)
PS. I also like the new screensaver and logo. And the Tardis. And a screwdriver. I'm holding my fingers so that the new dock doesn't let me down.
- Are you my mom?
- Don't blink.
- Who turned off the light?
- My arms are too long.
The series is definitely very good and decent, but really high expectations from the haste leave a slight feeling of incomplete satisfaction (now I'm trying not to hope too much for the splendor of the final haste.
Just an adventure without family and gender issues
It is clear that Disney has brought some money
It's a pity that there are only three episodes with this doctor and this companion😕
But I hope it's just different and there will be a strong interesting story with Jokey
This series will definitely be included in the list of favorites, it is very reminiscent of the good old days in the atmosphere, as if it met with friends🩵
But the story of the ship's captain is very sad. But giant hands and a responsive jaw... Rough.
And I thought for a second that Donna would stay on board.
– so, different things.
– for example? tell. Where have you been since our last meeting? what happened?
– it's nothing special. robots, chases, waterfalls.
– Oh, really. But what really happened?
– a lot of things.
– Are you okay?
– I will.
– When?
– in a million years.
I just can't, it's too much. 💔😭
, it's so creepy, it almost fell back in the end
I love stories with doppelgangers. and they were creepy.
It's great that the doctor remembers his past life. rtd just happily used all this to make Tennant suffer beautifully on camera again. and as always, it suits him very well. It was a wonderful conversation with the fake Donna.
it turned out to be a strong horror in space, and the plot did not fall apart and was solid.
in general, gravity rules. :)
Two Davids 😁
While it is difficult to say exactly why this was done, perhaps in the third season the Doctor will meet Newton again and gravity will play some kind of plot role. But so far the most working theory is that Russell T. Davis wanted to add some kind of running gag to the series, and came up with such an unobtrusive joke with "gravity" that he can repeat for years and no one will get tired of it because it does not take up much screen time and space in the script. In general, it is not so important what this phenomenon is called, Newton did not invent it and did not launch it, he just opened it and named it, the essence of universal gravitation and attraction does not change from the difference in a pair of sounds.
+1 to the piggy bank of selected episodes (Planet Midnight, Silence in the library, Sent down from heaven, and now the Wild Blue Distance).
It seems to me that I have figured out the idea of RTD (actually not, but you can dream) — very often, to get acquainted with Doctor Who, they advise "Start with Tennant" meaning the Tenth. But now it has gained a new meaning, from this episode it is really possible to enter the universe. Fly in with a run.
I missed you so much!
Gods, I'm so glad that this particular couple got these three extra episodes. Donna deserved it.
Yes, initially I wrote a comment after 2 minutes of watching in order to get rid of multiculturalism (for many, this phenomenon causes a storm of indignation; I just get punched on the op in cases that are not particularly appropriate), please do not judge strictly🙂
The whole series was in awe of what was happening. I regularly had the feeling that I had already seen something similar, but I was not completely hoovian, I could not remember what exactly)
There doesn't seem to be anything super new and almost the entire series is based on the game of Tennant and Catherine Tate, but it was just a breath of fresh air after all the previous episodes, where a lot of things happened, but almost nothing was remembered in the end.
One location and only 2 actors have surpassed the last seasons. It was the first time in a long time that I had been staring.
Rest in peace, dear.
