Description
Caught in the middle of a devastating war on Kastarion 3, the Doctor is trapped when he steps on a landmine. Can he save himself and Ruby, plus the entire planet... without moving?
Discussion: Season 1, Episode 3 Join the Discussion
161So far, the most doctoral series is Joking, well, it's not surprising with such monologues, but he copes with them perfectly. RTD, give the Fifteenth a normal line! The plot is straight 100% Moffat - capitalism, stupid people, love won everything.
By the way, is this the next companion from the future and was it written by Moffat? If I got paid every time... Well, you understand, I would have two rubles. Or three, if River counts.
P.S. If the doctor participated in lesbian competitions, then it turns out that this is a reference to the 13th? The man would not have been allowed in...
There are also warrior priests and dangerous medical devices that don't work properly.
Moffat came and won my heart again, concentrating on acting and casually speaking about war, capitalism, death and the power of love. Thanks for the glass, yes. Well, I couldn't help but throw references to myself.
"She replied, 'Young man, don't you know there's more to life than a moon and a president's wife?'"
I see the Doctor Jokingly, now for sure. The best episode of this season so far.
There are three fundamentals of a Doctor Who episode: running through corridors, fighting monsters, and solving problems with the sonic.
The Doctor could not run.
There were no monsters.
The sonic was not used.
Beautiful.
And yet, I wonder who Ruby really is and why the computer is stuck trying to name her next of kin?
it too loudly somehow and the topic of the doctor's offspring often arises
As far as I remember, Susan as a biological granddaughter was not previously canon, in the 2005+ era, mentions by the doctor were reduced to "once upon a time was a father" in a sad context. And here, from the second episode, there is a completely different subtext to the feelings.
Time has transfigured them into
Untruth. The stone fidelity
They hardly meant has come to be
Their final blazon, and to prove
Our almost-instinct almost true:
What will survive of us is love.

The original is beautiful.
SO MANY EMOTIONS FROM HER, SO GOOD NOW ONE OF MY FAVORITES😭😭😭
And yet, I wonder who Ruby really is?It's snowing again....
The Joke game is just incredible!!How he played fear, I just CRIED....
The chemistry between Ruby and the Doctor gets stronger and it makes me feel so good; I won't go into who the hell Susan Twist is, I'll wait until it's revealed .... and this is a series about how scary and painful it is to be on the verge of death, you are very afraid of it and at the same time you have to keep your face, understand that if something happens to you, not only you will suffer, but also the people around you...Moffat bravo!!!
Moffat came and put things in order. It was just as difficult to give this episode five stars as the previous two, but in this case because five stars is not enough. From beginning to end, everything turned out wildly cool, although the fishing rods thrown for the future are already bursting our heads - in addition to the mystery of Ruby's origin, the mysterious Mrs. Flood, "The One Who Expects", gravity, Susan Twist's cameo in each episode and the origin of the Doctor, here we also added Varada Seta, who will play a new companion The doctors are in the second season. And yes, there may be a situation like with Freema Agyeman or Karen Gillan, who played other characters before playing Martha Jones and Amy Pond, but it may also be like with Jenna Louise Coleman, who played the "fragments" of Clara Oswald twice before playing Clara Oswald.
Of course, after Moffat's masterpieces, it will be difficult to continue at the same level, but I keep my fists so that next week after such a strong episode as this, everything does not return back to booger monsters, farting engines, overplaying travesty icons and meaningless musical numbers. But it seems like the trailer for the next episode makes a good first impression, everything is gloomy, serious.
P.S, I caught a small flashback to that episode of Castle in which Beckett stood on a bomb for the entire episode, but this is probably not such a rare plot move.
But "There's Always a Twist in the End" is just a show-off with a high-quality musical and dance number for absolutely nothing, made after the Doctor broke the fourth wall, too unnatural to be just a demonstration that after defeating the Maestro, people sing and dance again, because inexplicable things like a pedestrian crossing are happening in it. like a piano.
"if there was a musical number... The way to defeat them is exactly what I was waiting for. And for the Beatles to come up with the song themselves and play it.
And so I saw that you can take and make a series entirely about music, so that you don't feel ashamed, in a series from which you don't expect it. And after a couple of months, I see a frankly passing episode in Doctor Who, a series that has always seemed to me much more experimental than most of television. Yes, the whole series revolves around music, but at the moment of battles we hear some random set of refrains, not normal numbers. The Beatles are simply missing from the series, which even looks a bit like spitting at them. In fact, only Rose's song is used correctly and makes it feel that the plot of the series has something to do with music. The fact that at the end of the hit is of course a thank you, but it could have been so much better.
And Jokey is beautiful! He plays 100% and even more.
Just because I don't like it, doesn't mean I don't need it. Nicely. Elegant.
there is a lot of action in the series, people write that there is too much action, where there is intimacy, where there are calm scenes
in the series there is little action, the series is chamber, more aimed at psychologism and characters, people write where eshkn, lol
The same Midnight, for example, generally took place on board an alien ship, and nothing, one of the best episodes.
The doctor often uses a screwdriver, people complain that he does nothing himself, always relies on devices
The doctor stopped relying on his devices, now people are asking why he stopped doing it :D
But yes, people don't have the right to such an opinion?)
Cough... =3
I watch the series, go to read the comments and after seeing a few times those piles of shit that you suck out, I just minus the rest on the way on the machine. Considering that you are not able to write anything adequate, this is not a mistake =3
It's a shame that this again did not affect the visible assessment of your comments in any way - they are absolutely objectively evaluated for several disadvantages, but since you block all dissenters, it creates a false appearance that there are no dissenters with you. I repeat my thought expressed a few episodes earlier - this is just the stupidest decision of the MyShows administration, killing the whole essence of the comment evaluation functionality. My comments differ from [+417] to [-171], and even if these one hundred and seventy cons came to me from haters of my opinion, I prefer that the rating of my comments reflect this, and not like yours - without a rating.
And no, this is not "jerking off to numbers", but "I thirst for an objective reflection of the public mood in the comments section." A big difference
And yes, I assure you that two dozen newly created stocks and a little bit of stubbornness will lower your rating to zero and give -70,000... That's exactly what the conversation is about. And the administration, spreading its hands, will say - well, yes, we have banned the twinkies, but we will remove the disadvantages somehow later... in three years, or never at all. That's how things are now and the uporotysh use it.
So far, the most unloved series of the new ones
Overall, the episode is good, I really liked the Doctor's chatter, but the love line of the heroine Varada somehow seemed out of place to me. Do you love me? And I love you! We love each other!
They even went through religion to some extent, which the radical left will not like.
, I mean that the series has a super-people fighting with emptiness - but it doesn't seem to have been revealed at all, having spent most of the time talking about this
and that, both deaths - of the father and the boy - generally look kind of stupid against the background of the fact that they don't have a special reaction It was after that. the girl shed two tears, for her daughter, the father "just died, but did not disappear", at the end we stand photographing the sunset
, I don't care if the series is in the same location or not, at least let them lock themselves in the room 1 kvm, but I want to see some kind of plot development, how slowly something adds up to one picture, how The mysteries of the situation are revealed step by step. yes, the doctor is always about the scenario "we fly somewhere - a problem, on the verge of death - everything is resolved - happy end", but everything is just completely caricatured here, or something
- but, Doctor, you didn't do anything.
I wonder how the story would have developed if there had been a companion on the mine.
But in general, it's very good.
I understand that the girl has a completely different perception of death, but it's like she doesn't distinguish a hologram from a living person. Otherwise, why constantly run screaming "dad"?
I didn't even know that this was a Moffat series until I went into the comments. Moffat did a great job, he kept the whole series in suspense. And how well Jokey showed himself!
And how many references! I remember Willengard was mentioned back in the first season in 2005, hints about the kidnapping of Luna and the president's wife and fish fingers with custard! The phrase of the 10th "sorry, I'm so sorry". The Doctor's promise to dance is reminiscent of the two-part series about gas masks, where the Doctor, Jack and Rose argued about dancing. And the snowflake at the end reminded me of Snowmen.
As always, the Doctor is reckless after regeneration, otherwise he would not have rushed headlong across an unfamiliar planet.
Oh, and yes, in the end he said he likes to eat, but it's food 11. Have these characters already been there, just now we've seen them younger?
This girl with a hologram of her father. Is there a man standing next to a mine? I'll sit down to watch the pictures! Are they trying to protect me? No, I'll be closer to danger (okay, this moment can still be understood, since her mother became an angel. Let it be).
It seems to me that these moments could have been better replayed. But there is something there
It's hard to even call it a series, some kind of schoolboy fan fiction.
One of the worst episodes of new school. Perhaps the worst.
I don't understand how many commenters can like it.: there is no plot, just conventions and cheats. Where's the good old Moffat? Hell, there's a bow on the side.
It's been a long time since I rewound the Doctor's series - I had to, unbearably.
Tonally, not everything is smooth for me: The Doctor, who makes jokes about playing the drums, is very good and very Doctor, but it's better not to delve into the fact that several people have just died. even if the girl perceives death strangely, the audience still treats it as a tragedy. and the phrase he's not gone he's just dead is beautiful, but it would sound much more piercing if the speaker understood the concept of death. in general, there are questions about these elements, but otherwise - the plot, the degree of tension, the morality, the way it is conveyed to the viewer is excellent. It was with this episode that the season began for me in earnest.
The girl, as noted above, is somewhat mentally retarded, but that's okay, let's put it down to concussion and depression during the war. Every time I get high, I get some kind of instructive moral this time they will present us. It's like watching a cartoon for 5-year-olds, where every time at the end of the series they teach us what's good and what's bad. The anti-war and anti-capitalist theme was understandable, but somehow they also managed to drag Vera in, damn it, bravo. Down with traditional values apparently))00
They kept me in suspense to the limit.
Once again, I note that the doctor has become very emotional and prone to changing clothes - I like it!!!
It would be brave if both the companion and the Doctor were killed in the third episode. So far, Ruby looks like such a Bad wolf. No matter how she turns out to be one of the Pantheon. Either the Doctor's daughter or her mother.
I'm betting on the daughter of someone from the Pantheon. There is an interesting fan theory here about the origin of Ruby Sunday, tied to the original plans for the fifth season of The Adventures of Sarah Jane, which were not destined to come true due to the death of Elizabeth Sladen. I wouldn't be surprised if Russell T. Davis just took the plans for Sky Smith and rewrote and expanded them a bit.
Ruby, Ruby, who are you that even the computer started hanging when I was looking for your family.
"Fish fingers and custard" - I heard and immediately smiled from ear to ear, I really love 11 Doctors.
Kiss-kiss to everyone.
I've already given up hope for interesting episodes, but here it is a new era of the Doctor 💪🏻🔥
I didn't like it. The idea of the series is interesting - and unusual "ambulance ", and a war on an empty planet, and touching dad and daughter. You could make such a candy out of it!
But the Doctor, who has been standing on a mine all series, is trash, which kills all the rudiments of at least some logic. I can understand that according to the plot it was necessary to leave it in one place and escalate the drama, but it's hard to think of a more pointless way than the one used in the series:
- firstly, the mine is so smart that for half an hour it tries to determine that a living object has stepped on it (???) in order to find out whether it explodes or not
- while the mine is determining this, the Doctor on it is waving his arms and the pressed body of a soldier, and is almost dancing, while the mine still does not understand whether to blow it up or not 🤡
- with all this, the Doctor can't get a screwdriver, which does absolutely everything, damn, including armored glass in one previous shot - I understand that it was necessary to make some kind of drama, and for this, screenwriters often have to downplay the capabilities of the character, but specifically this is such a log in the eye that the whole drama of the situation and the tears of the Doctor do not even cause any emotions.
- Ruby, when she is asked to bring something heavy, she goes to hell, although, for example, there is a suitable-sized stone literally half a meter from the Doctor. Moreover, she does not worry much and does not hurry, admires the planets, takes her time, even though the Doctor may explode at any moment
In general, I couldn't get into the dialogues and close my eyes to all of the above, but the series is still more pleasant to perceive than the previous ones this season.
Then something that either made you laugh or made you press your palms to your face.
1. A surprisingly stupid mine, which for a good half hour could not understand whether a person was standing on it alive or not, although the person was quite twitching and emotional. I expected the timer to go off when Ruby rolled down to the Doctor's feet, but no, it didn't raise the adrenaline much, actually, one less companion.
2. An incredibly and unreasonably prolonged scene where the doctor asks to throw him an archived body, but our heroine wants to transfer it exactly. To what? To catch up with suspense? We know perfectly well that nothing will happen to them in the middle of the season, what was all this about? The doctor asks you not to take risks and not to approach - why would you do otherwise? This is not heroism, this is stupidity. Yes, we will find out later that the explosion would have blown everything away anyway, but that will be later.
3. A person who has received permission to take his daughter to WAR with him, instead of leaving her somewhere on a safe planet, is just 12 \ 10. And later: there is chaos and the threat of an explosion around, and a child who probably should have been taught some basic things and have an instinct for self-preservation sits down on the ground to watch photos.
4. How did the doctor know that the dad virus hacked the entire corporation at the click of his fingers, and not some kind of local network on a separate planet?
5. Why do people who have just realized that there are no opponents on the planet and their loved ones died in vain, just stand beautifully admiring the sunset (dawn \ what else is there)? They're probably coming up with something else to believe in.
In short, the idea of the series is 10 \ 10, and the implementation is somehow threefold
Moffat, the devil, came back and got sick again. God, it feels so good for the second series in a row. Please continue ^_^
The idea of the series is excellent, the execution is 4. And most importantly, the Doctor is somehow helpless and weak, it's so ridiculous that he fell into this trap in the first place.
But I was wildly disappointed that the Doctor persuaded AI (!) to help in a fatherly way) The girl who thought the hologram was her father? 🥴 And also I emotionally did not understand the ending, when everyone is standing watching the sunset, like a happy ending...
P.S. Does no one else think that the new Doc cries and sings too much?)
"Now a believer needs proof?!"
A compressed body is kind of creepy 🫣
I'm waiting for a clue where Ruby came from!
Overall, it's a really good series, but the level of buffoonery from the minor characters (by reducing their number per square meter of the minefield, damn it) spoils the impression.
The season with Jokey is very heterogeneous so far, and you don't even know what to expect next.
