1

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:12,600

Hello everybody and welcome to the first episode of what we are temporarily calling Dr Who?


2

00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:14,880

With a question mark, is that right Jack?


3

00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:18,680

I think that's spot on to be honest because one of the two of us, or soon to be one of


4

00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,600

the three of us, has never actually seen Dr Who before.


5

00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:23,600

Yes, exactly.


6

00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,640

Which I know many of you have just cringed at and have gone, how have you never seen


7

00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,920

Dr Who yet you're appearing on a Dr Who podcast?


8

00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,680

But that's the whole point, so that's part of the name.


9

00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:39,040

So Josh, break it down for the audience at home, what we're kind of looking to achieve


10

00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:40,040

and do.


11

00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:41,040

Yeah, exactly.


12

00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:45,320

So I am, Josh, with me is my co-host Jack Phillips.


13

00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,800

Jack Phillips is the one that has never seen Dr Who before.


14

00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:54,520

So in the lead up to David Tennant coming back, and just to give me another excuse to


15

00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:59,840

really re-watch every episode, we thought why don't we sort of go episode by episode,


16

00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:02,320

week by week.


17

00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,080

We're also going to have a third party joining us, sorry Bradley Fuller.


18

00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,680

He might join us next week, I think he'll probably flake on it, but he's also a big


19

00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:09,680

fan of Dr Who.


20

00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:16,120

So I've watched every episode since it came out, live since I was seven years old, whatever.


21

00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,360

My favourite show, absolutely loved bits.


22

00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,080

Jack, you haven't, right?


23

00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,080

I haven't, no.


24

00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:22,080

Never seen it before.


25

00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:26,160

I've never seen it before, I'm aware of it through conversations with you and Brad.


26

00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:30,240

And I know that at some point we're going to be getting to who the best doctor is or


27

00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:31,840

who you think the best doctor is.


28

00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,760

I know there is going to be many an argument had on that.


29

00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,760

But no, myself, I've never seen any episodes before.


30

00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,160

As I said, I'm aware of it.


31

00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:43,440

I listened to a favourite YouTuber of mine, he does a really, really good podcast on it.


32

00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,280

He's a massive fan, but I've never seen it.


33

00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,720

And of course, that's part of the reason I agreed to do this podcast is I thought, you


34

00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,320

know, I'm 25 years down the line, should probably start watching it at some point.


35

00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:53,320

So here we are.


36

00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,880

All right, so let's jump straight in with season one, episode one.


37

00:01:57,880 --> 00:01:58,880

You've never seen it before.


38

00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,080

I saw it for the first time when I was seven years old.


39

00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:05,720

And I think I've watched it a thousand times since.


40

00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,240

Overall thoughts on the episode?


41

00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:15,880

I've got to say in terms of first episodes, I thought it was actually very good.


42

00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,920

You always look at, I mean, I know that of course Doctor Who had run previously in the


43

00:02:19,920 --> 00:02:24,320

old Who, but as far as I could tell, this was a complete fresh reboot.


44

00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,320

It'd been seven years between.


45

00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:27,320

Not a reboot.


46

00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,480

Well, kind of like, but they brought it back.


47

00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,920

You know, when was the last episode before Rose?


48

00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:36,600

89 or something, something like that.


49

00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,360

So we're looking at kind of 15, 20 years in between the two.


50

00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,880

So it's trying to capture a new audience, trying to, you know, reignite that Doctor


51

00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:45,880

Who spark.


52

00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,360

And I've got to say, I think it was a great, almost, it's almost like a pilot episode,


53

00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:50,360

isn't it?


54

00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:54,680

You know, you're reintroducing the Doctor, reintroducing the companion.


55

00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:58,720

You want a little bit of mystery, you know, kind of an overall mystery and everything.


56

00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,880

And I've got to say, I thought it was very good.


57

00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,000

And it really made me miss the Naltes.


58

00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,000

Because it's very Naltes, isn't it?


59

00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,000

It's quite dated now.


60

00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,000

It's quite dated.


61

00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:14,360

It's when she got the generic alarm tone, you know, the little alarm clock radio.


62

00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,160

And it was with the flip phone.


63

00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,480

And you know, I'm just sitting there thinking, yeah, we grew up at the time.


64

00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:21,480

You know, we did.


65

00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:22,480

Yeah, we did.


66

00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,760

I'm going to, I'm just going to say straight off the bat.


67

00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,120

I fucking love this.


68

00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:30,320

I'm going to be critical as much as I can about this episode.


69

00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,480

This is like, this is top tier television, man.


70

00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:38,360

This is nearly 20 years old and it's still sick, right?


71

00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:39,360

It stands up.


72

00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,360

It does stand up.


73

00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,320

I've got to say, I mean, it did make me laugh because I think if you really watch the, I


74

00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,960

don't know what they actually called the mannequin, like the actual mannequins themselves.


75

00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:48,960

The autons, yeah.


76

00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:49,960

There you go.


77

00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:50,960

That's it.


78

00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:56,640

So when you notice when they walk, they kind of walk with their heads a little bit tilted


79

00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:02,240

up and I'm assuming that's because there were no eyes, like I kind of eye holes in the masks


80

00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,200

and the only holes they could get was I'm assuming on the bottom of the nose.


81

00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:10,920

Yeah, that's, so let's talk about the autons.


82

00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,480

There's some scary shit, right?


83

00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:18,200

Like that first, when that head tilts that first time, that's quite scary, right?


84

00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,200

Straight off the bat.


85

00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,120

You know, you go down, I mean, first of all, I wasn't sure if she was actually trying to


86

00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,440

steal money because I couldn't work out.


87

00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:30,240

As she goes to walk out, the security guard hands her a bag of money, which I then understand


88

00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,120

is the, you know, I think it was like a kind of a lotto syndicate thing or something like


89

00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:35,120

that.


90

00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:36,120

A syndicate, yeah, yeah, exactly.


91

00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:37,120

Presumably, yeah.


92

00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:38,120

I'm assuming so.


93

00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:39,120

Yeah.


94

00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:40,440

I mean, maybe she just forgot cash out or something.


95

00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:41,440

Who knows?


96

00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:42,440

But she's straight in the basement.


97

00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:43,440

I mean, straight away, you're on edge.


98

00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:44,440

You're like, what's going on here?


99

00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:45,440

It's dark, it's dingy.


100

00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:46,440

Well, you know, it's even, so it's this hectic, so they start off with the montage of their


101

00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:47,440

day to day life, right?


102

00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:48,440

I just want to say one thing about that.


103

00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:49,440

I fucking love it.


104

00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:50,440

Mickey is brilliant in it.


105

00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:51,440

Rose is brilliant in it.


106

00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:52,440

But they leave their rubbish on the fountain.


107

00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:53,440

Did you notice that?


108

00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:54,440

It put me on edge.


109

00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,440

They're eating lunch and then they just leave their sandwich wrappers and drinks and they


110

00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:58,440

just walk away.


111

00:04:58,440 --> 00:04:59,440

I know.


112

00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:00,440

I mean, that is that true naughty, you know, I mean, that's the thing.


113

00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:01,440

I mean, I'm not sure if that's true.


114

00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:12,440

Nowadays, cancelled on Twitter, that would have been it.


115

00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:13,440

Exactly.


116

00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:20,440

Quicker than you can leave the rubbish.


117

00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,440

But yeah, so you've got that hectic sort of montage.


118

00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:24,440

Music is quite quirky.


119

00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:29,440

And then the lift opens up on the basement or closes at the top and the music stops and


120

00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:30,440

it's dead stop.


121

00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:31,440

Yeah, you're right.


122

00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:32,440

That eerie atmosphere is created straight away.


123

00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:33,440

Right.


124

00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,640

I made a note and then I had to scribble it out.


125

00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,440

When she goes to what's the guy's name?


126

00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:39,440

Is it Wilson?


127

00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:40,440

The door says CEO.


128

00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:47,240

What the fuck is the CEO of the company doing collecting lottery money with an office in


129

00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:48,240

the basement?


130

00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,240

What's this about?


131

00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:54,400

Funny thing is I did exactly the same thing because I thought when the security got hands


132

00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:58,120

of the money, I thought he said go and find the CEO.


133

00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,920

So I wrote why is the CEO's office in the basement?


134

00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:06,600

I mean, if you're the CEO, you want a nicer view rather than kind of a concrete box.


135

00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:13,120

But I thought looking back at the sign, I think it said like kind of engineer CEO.


136

00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:14,120

Yes.


137

00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:18,600

Well, no, so really, yeah, that's why I struck the note out because then later, I think she


138

00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,840

exposed to the doctor and he says who is Wilson?


139

00:06:20,840 --> 00:06:25,280

She goes the electrical operator or something like that.


140

00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:28,520

I think that's sort of my side, CEO in the basement.


141

00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:29,520

That sounds ridiculous.


142

00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:30,520

Yeah.


143

00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:31,520

All right.


144

00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:36,760

So that's all happening in basement, terrifying or tons.


145

00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,560

And then they're about to karate chop her in the head.


146

00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,920

I think is how they're going in for their kill.


147

00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:43,920

Right.


148

00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,240

And the doctor grabs her hand.


149

00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,520

What do you think of Christopher Eccleston as the doctor?


150

00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:50,920

I like him, to be honest.


151

00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,840

I really, really do like him again.


152

00:06:52,840 --> 00:06:58,760

First impression, he's got that kind of quirkiness, I guess.


153

00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,600

There's never he's very kind of almost got a colorful attitude.


154

00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:07,680

You know, it's very matter of fact, you know, and it kind of goes on slightly later in the


155

00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:12,640

episode when they meet Rose's mom and Rosie's mom, you know, kind of getting it on light


156

00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:13,640

in the candle.


157

00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,160

She's like, I'm just out the bar for that stuff.


158

00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,840

But he's just like, oh, yeah, I can see you're in your room.


159

00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:19,840

Oh, yeah, I can see you.


160

00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,880

You know, there's no he's very matter of fact, but he's very flamboyant.


161

00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:29,000

He's active, you know, and he and he and he wrote I'm jumping around a bit, but even right


162

00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,560

towards the end of the episode as well.


163

00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,160

Straight away, he's talking about convention.


164

00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:37,120

You know, he does he does everything by the book for the fairness of God.


165

00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,120

We'll come back to that.


166

00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:39,120

Definitely.


167

00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:40,120

Yeah, we'll definitely come back.


168

00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:41,120

You're right.


169

00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:47,920

So I actually at the start of it, I put a note saying, is he too normal in this?


170

00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:54,320

That was my thing, because having watched Doctors Down the Line, I quite like the alienness


171

00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:55,320

about them.


172

00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,960

I thought, is he too normal in this at the beginning?


173

00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,040

He's very like you said, matter of fact.


174

00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,520

But no, I think you're absolutely right.


175

00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,000

That scene in the when he goes into the apartment for the first time when he meets Jackie for


176

00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,360

the first time, he's fucking brilliant man where he's just so jovial and he's flicking


177

00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,360

through the books and he's doing all this sort of stuff.


178

00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:13,360

That's excellent.


179

00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:14,360

That's you're right.


180

00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:15,920

When he yeah, he reads through the magazine.


181

00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:17,160

Oh, that won't work.


182

00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,560

She's gay and she's an alien or something like that.


183

00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:20,920

Okay, this is cool.


184

00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:21,920

This is cool.


185

00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:22,920

It is brilliant.


186

00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,840

And that that I think, as I said, you know, you've had the luxury of seeing the other


187

00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,720

doctors and seeing what actor brings what to the table.


188

00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:31,720

That's it.


189

00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:36,120

But as a first impression, I think it's brilliant, you know, and it's yeah, it's very good.


190

00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:40,400

But the interesting thing is, is talking about when he's in Rose and her mum's apartment


191

00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,280

for the first time, I'm sure because he looks in the mirror, it's the first time he sees


192

00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,720

himself from the mirror and he says about his ears and everything like that.


193

00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:52,000

I am sure it took me five attempts to read this on it.


194

00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,200

I'm pretty sure he says, I'd like to be a lady.


195

00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,200

I don't know.


196

00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:00,840

I have to read what you did.


197

00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,840

You know, put the subtitles on.


198

00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,240

No, that's probably a fair point.


199

00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:05,240

Actually, you know what?


200

00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:06,240

I may do that next week.


201

00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:07,240

There you go.


202

00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,040

But yeah, no, I'm sure.


203

00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,240

Which is interesting because of course, I do know I'm not I don't live under a rock,


204

00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,960

but I know that the previous doctor was Jodie Whittaker.


205

00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:16,960

Yeah.


206

00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,200

Well, the future doctor or the future doctor.


207

00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:20,200

Yeah.


208

00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,200

But you know, for us, the last doctor, you know, has gone through.


209

00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:24,200

Interesting.


210

00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:25,200

I've never picked up on that.


211

00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:26,200

I'd be surprised if it is that.


212

00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:27,200

But yeah, OK, no, fair enough.


213

00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,200

Fair enough.


214

00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,200

But yeah, that's fucking awesome.


215

00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,200

What do you think of Rose?


216

00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,880

Yeah, you know what?


217

00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:40,640

Again, very noughties, you know, kind of bootcut jeans and or flare jeans or whatever they


218

00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:41,640

were called.


219

00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:46,960

But I've got to say, there is a question I had to ask myself is after everything that


220

00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:54,280

had happened, happened, would you jump into a random box with a stranger you have just


221

00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:55,280

met in the past?


222

00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:56,280

All for that.


223

00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,600

Would you actually jump in there or not?


224

00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:06,720

I don't know if this is just even if you knew that this because she's been in the targets,


225

00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,000

like she knows that that is magical.


226

00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,000

Yeah.


227

00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,000

Yeah.


228

00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,000

I think I probably would.


229

00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,000

Yeah, I think I probably would.


230

00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,000

I'm not sure.


231

00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,000

Right.


232

00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:20,000

Hold into your head because obviously she says no initially, right?


233

00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:25,000

He goes away, he comes back and he says, by the way, it travels in time.


234

00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,000

Right.


235

00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,000

Yeah.


236

00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,760

And she fucking runs for it.


237

00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,200

Hold that in mind.


238

00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:32,200

OK.


239

00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,360

That may or may not come back in a few episodes time.


240

00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,160

Well, I'm guessing it's something to do with the dad.


241

00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,160

Which what?


242

00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,640

Well, because there's no dad involved, is there?


243

00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:46,560

So I'm assuming the dad's run off or the dad's dead.


244

00:10:46,560 --> 00:10:47,560

Just hold it in mind.


245

00:10:47,560 --> 00:10:48,560

We'll get to it.


246

00:10:48,560 --> 00:10:49,560

We'll get to it down the line.


247

00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:52,560

But Rose is fucking brilliant.


248

00:10:52,560 --> 00:10:56,120

There is not genuinely, this is such a good episode, there's not a moment's wasted dialogue


249

00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,120

in this.


250

00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:01,120

Even as soon as she gets in the lift, he starts like quizzing her, go on then, who could it


251

00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:02,120

be?


252

00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,120

Who could it be?


253

00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,720

She's like, oh, well, it must be students because how else would you get a group together


254

00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:06,720

like me to do it?


255

00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,640

And his face lights up and he's like, yes, brilliant.


256

00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,560

And then if we jump to the end, she does her gymnastics skills and everything.


257

00:11:13,560 --> 00:11:17,040

She's a sick companion because she does things herself.


258

00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,040

Right.


259

00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,280

That's what's quite, she shows that she's not on the same level as the doctor.


260

00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,000

She's never dealt with aliens and stuff like that, but she can hold her own.


261

00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,000

Right.


262

00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,000

And that's why the doctor's impressed with her.


263

00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:27,000

Do you all agree?


264

00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,000

Yeah, I do agree.


265

00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,280

Because the whole point of her companion is they fill in the missing pieces of the main


266

00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:33,280

character.


267

00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:34,280

Agreed.


268

00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:41,680

So the doctor provides that knowledge of alien life and the technology and almost the initial


269

00:11:41,680 --> 00:11:42,680

kind of plan.


270

00:11:42,680 --> 00:11:44,120

You know, he's like, we're doing this.


271

00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:45,400

This is how we're doing it.


272

00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:50,320

And then, well, for example, the kind of the conclusion of this episode, the doctor has


273

00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:57,040

a plan, locate the, you know, kind of the common, what the main molten plastic was called


274

00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,040

now.


275

00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,040

Ah, the nesting consciousness.


276

00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:00,040

That's it.


277

00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,280

The nesting consciousness.


278

00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,640

You know, you can't do that, reason with it, get it to leave Earth and that's it.


279

00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:06,640

That's the initial plan.


280

00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,520

Of course, he then, that doesn't happen.


281

00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:10,520

He can't reason with it.


282

00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:15,360

So Rose then has to make a plan B and then she comes in if she says she uses her gymnastic


283

00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,000

skills and that's it.


284

00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:18,880

Which never come up again.


285

00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:23,320

That's such a weird inclusion because it works in the episode.


286

00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:27,920

No, it was swinging on a rope or on a chain or whatever it was.


287

00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:32,320

But like that should again, we're jumping ahead, but that never comes back.


288

00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,800

She never uses anything remotely gymnastic-esque again.


289

00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,160

Oh, from memory.


290

00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,600

Anyway, that's such a weird inclusion.


291

00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:40,600

I reckon.


292

00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:41,600

Again, I love it.


293

00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:46,120

I don't think there's anything wasted, but that to me is a bit, especially considering


294

00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:47,120

it never comes back.


295

00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:48,120

No, that's true.


296

00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:49,120

Well, there you go.


297

00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:50,120

I mean, that's it.


298

00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,320

I mean, look, it could almost have that kind of pilot episode thing.


299

00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,400

A few things that I've watched previously where they've had pilot episodes, they mentioned


300

00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,840

things because it's all to do with the test audience as well.


301

00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:01,840

You've got to remember.


302

00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:02,840

Yeah, true.


303

00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,520

And a test audience may have turned around and said, oh, that was really good, but why


304

00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,040

was she swinging on a rope?


305

00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,080

That's not a chain.


306

00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,040

So you just don't know, do you?


307

00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,720

I've got to say though, I was really, really interested talking about pilot things and


308

00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:15,720

test audiences.


309

00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:21,480

Really, really intrigued that the BBC decided, someone at the BBC decided that we have these


310

00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:22,480

mannequin monsters.


311

00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:23,480

Brilliant.


312

00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:30,080

There's male mannequin monsters, female mannequins, even children mannequins, which I thought was


313

00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:31,080

interesting.


314

00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:36,280

But the initial chase down the hallway has a female mannequin with its top open.


315

00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,120

With a bit of cleavage on, shut up.


316

00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:45,120

And I was just, I was sitting there, I had to laugh because I was just like, someone


317

00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,920

somewhere in the BBC made a decision in the wardrobe thing and they went, that is what


318

00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:50,920

we want.


319

00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,360

I just can't wrap my brain around why they would do that.


320

00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:55,360

It's a very-


321

00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,360

Wrap your brain if you're part of the pack.


322

00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,160

Yeah, I just realised that.


323

00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:01,160

I mean, that's it.


324

00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:02,160

I couldn't work out why.


325

00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:05,160

I mean, it's just funny, but maybe just have it a lot.


326

00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,160

Maybe you just-


327

00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:07,160

I totally missed that.


328

00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:08,160

I totally missed the tits.


329

00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:09,160

That was the other thing.


330

00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:10,160

Because there was two things.


331

00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,160

There was two things, like two things, writing notes, because again, I'm writing notes as


332

00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:14,160

I'm watching it like you did.


333

00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:15,160

Two things.


334

00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:21,160

One, the word mannequin took me several attempts to learn how to correctly spell Boudet mannequin.


335

00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,160

Because that is a difficult word.


336

00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:27,160

And the second thing is, of course, when I saw it, all I just wrote was mannequin boobs.


337

00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,160

And that was it.


338

00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,160

It was just like, yeah, that's all I need on that one.


339

00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:36,160

But yeah, no, I've got to say though, it was, because something I have heard of Doctor Who


340

00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:41,160

and I'm sure I'm going to be seeing more of this, is they always do it with a limited


341

00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:42,160

budget.


342

00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,160

Yes.


343

00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:50,160

It's never over the top CGI and everything like that.


344

00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:51,160

And you could see that.


345

00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:52,160

I mean, as I said, I appreciate it.


346

00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:53,160

This was set in, what was this, 2006?


347

00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:54,160

Five, yeah.


348

00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:55,160

It would have been filmed in 2004.


349

00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:56,160

It was released in five, yeah, literally.


350

00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:57,160

And you can tell that.


351

00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,160

But at the same time though, I thought it actually stood up pretty well.


352

00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:04,160

I've seen worse films now that wouldn't stand up as well as that did.


353

00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:05,160

Well, it had better be.


354

00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:06,160

It had better be.


355

00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:07,160

It had better be.


356

00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:08,160

It had better be.


357

00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:13,160

It had better be.


358

00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:18,160

That's another question, but no, I disagree with that.


359

00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,160

So these mannequins, apparently there's no CGI.


360

00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:26,160

There's a zip on the back of the head, which they CGI out on the back of the shots.


361

00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,160

Other than that, it's all completely practical.


362

00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:29,160

Yeah.


363

00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:30,160

Insane.


364

00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:31,160

I like it.


365

00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:32,160

I think it's brilliant.


366

00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,160

And a lot more films need to look back at that.


367

00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:42,160

I know we have the luxury of CGI and everything like that, but you do miss that kind of...


368

00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:46,160

I look back at the old Star Wars films, and I know that the old Star Wars films were made


369

00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:51,160

with toys and props and everything like that, but it just looks cool.


370

00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,160

That's it.


371

00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:57,160

And yeah, it is interesting.


372

00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:01,160

I mean, that was the other thing as well that did make me chuckle was you could tell that


373

00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:05,160

they were obviously shooting it on a budget because they go past the London light, which


374

00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:11,160

of course is a very photograph placed in London and everything like that.


375

00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:15,160

And I'm assuming they probably couldn't afford to shut down the park outside the London light


376

00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:16,160

during the day.


377

00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:21,160

So they had to, I'm assuming, shoot it at night because that was the only kind of leverage


378

00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,160

that they could get to show it down.


379

00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,160

But again, they made it work.


380

00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:29,160

They obviously had a budget and they were like, right, we have to work within this budget.


381

00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,160

And they've done that. And I think that's brilliant.


382

00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,160

You know, impressive.


383

00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:38,160

Talking of that nighttime shot, there's a bit where they're running across whatever


384

00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,160

bridge it is in London. I don't know which bridge it is.


385

00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,160

The one where you can see Parliament in the background.


386

00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:47,160

They're running across it and two double decker London buses drive past.


387

00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,160

They didn't own those double decker buses.


388

00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:50,160

They didn't rent it.


389

00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,160

They literally made Billy Piper and Christopher Ecclestone stand on the side of the road


390

00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,160

until a bus naturally drove past.


391

00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,160

And then they're like, shit, right, action.


392

00:16:58,160 --> 00:16:59,160

Let's go. Let's go.


393

00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,160

That's how they did that.


394

00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:02,160

I love it.


395

00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,160

Could you imagine that happening nowadays?


396

00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:05,160

You just wouldn't know.


397

00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:09,160

You know, Christopher Ecclestone was stood there with a cup of coffee that someone had


398

00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:14,160

just made and he was there just about to take a sip and then suddenly just someone just


399

00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,160

shouts bus and he has to throw the cup and that's it.


400

00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:18,160

Yeah.


401

00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,160

I hope you feel you messed up the line.


402

00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:21,160

Oh yeah.


403

00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,160

What do you think of, we'll just briefly touch on it.


404

00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:24,160

What do you think of Nick?


405

00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:29,160

He's not much of a character in this, but yeah.


406

00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:34,160

Um, do I think he was hard done by, by the, you know, kind of thing?


407

00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:38,160

I mean, I've got to say, I thought they were going to go ballsy right out the bat and they


408

00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,160

were going to kill him off.


409

00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,160

I genuinely, I thought I was watching it.


410

00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,160

It's when he gets absorbed by the wheelie game.


411

00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,160

Oh, that's, we'll talk about that in a second.


412

00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:49,160

That's strange.


413

00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,160

That's where the CGI looks the worst.


414

00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:53,160

I reckon.


415

00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,160

Yeah.


416

00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:58,160

It was a bit strange, but going back to Mickey, I genuinely thought that that was going to


417

00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:05,160

be, is it a McGuffin that you kind of have that's your, your goal to go towards an objective?


418

00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:12,160

I can't remember if it was a McGuffin or not, but I thought that was going to be her reason.


419

00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,160

He dies so she then decides to pack it up and travel with the doctor.


420

00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:16,160

To follow with the doctor.


421

00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:20,160

Like I, her workplace was blown up.


422

00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,160

I, yeah, with the doctor.


423

00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:26,160

The boyfriend dies of a wheelie bin and I genuinely thought that they were going to kill


424

00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:27,160

the mum off as well.


425

00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,160

But like, it was just like, okay, fair enough.


426

00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,160

You know, and I don't know if he comes back or not.


427

00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:38,160

I mean, he could provide some level of humanity for Rose, I guess, that kind of, you know,


428

00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:42,160

missing that homesickness for Rose when she's traveling with the doctor.


429

00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,160

It's almost like, this is brilliant, but I miss this back home.


430

00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,160

So I'm assuming they'll visit her down the line.


431

00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,160

But he does.


432

00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:58,160

But I see, I especially, maybe having seen in the future episodes, but maybe not, no


433

00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,160

spoilers.


434

00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,160

I've always thought Mickey was sound and I used it hard done by.


435

00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:08,160

But then there's that bit just after her, the department store gets blown up and he


436

00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,160

comes around, he's like, oh my God, are you okay?


437

00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,160

You need something to drink.


438

00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,160

And she's like, there's a football game on, isn't there?


439

00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,160

And he goes, yeah, I'm actually just going to go and watch it if that's all right.


440

00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:18,160

I'm like, come on, mate.


441

00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,160

What sort of a boyfriend are you?


442

00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:21,160

Who would do that?


443

00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,160

Well, I don't know.


444

00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,160

You've been out in the UK for too long, haven't you?


445

00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,160

Yeah.


446

00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:28,160

Maybe.


447

00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:29,160

Do you think that's normal?


448

00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,160

That sounds like a dick thing to do.


449

00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:40,160

To be honest, though, I guess that kind of thing was to show that maybe a kind of a sense


450

00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:44,160

of ignorance, you know, the whole state of ignorance is bliss.


451

00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:45,160

Yeah.


452

00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:51,160

I think that's that kind of that level of he it's not because he's being a dick about


453

00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:52,160

it.


454

00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,160

It's just he doesn't realize the gravity of the situation.


455

00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:59,160

It's almost like he's you know, she's I don't know, lost a trainer or something like that.


456

00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:03,160

And he's like, oh, okay, yeah, let's just come down the pub and just forget about it.


457

00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:07,160

He doesn't he doesn't correspond with her workplace literally got blown up while she


458

00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:08,160

was there.


459

00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:09,160

Yeah, I think that shows.


460

00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:14,160

Yeah, I think it shows like there's clearly a kink in that dynamic and she's clearly not


461

00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,160

that happy or satisfied with the relationship.


462

00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:23,160

And I think that's amplified when and when he's being kidnapped by the SD and he's just


463

00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,160

hugging the TARDIS.


464

00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:25,160

I don't want to do anything.


465

00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:26,160

I'm just going to leave him.


466

00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:27,160

I think he said that one point.


467

00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:28,160

Leave him.


468

00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:29,160

Let's go.


469

00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:30,160

Yeah, that's right.


470

00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,160

Yeah, no, he's at the door and he just says, leave him.


471

00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:34,160

Let's go.


472

00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:39,160

But I would like to think, though, right, if somebody I knew very well, like like Rose


473

00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:46,160

and Mickey, if they got taken over by a plastic monster and I was there a very intimate dinner,


474

00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,160

I'd like to believe I'd have noticed a difference.


475

00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:53,160

You know, if we went for dinner and my hair was completely made of shiny plastic, you'd


476

00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:54,160

probably notice.


477

00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,160

I was going to put pizza.


478

00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,160

You'd probably pick it up.


479

00:20:58,160 --> 00:20:59,160

I would hope so.


480

00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:03,160

And again, I'm sitting there and I'm thinking she's really not noticed.


481

00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,160

She just has a really.


482

00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,160

There's clearly something wrong in that relationship, right?


483

00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,160

Yeah.


484

00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:11,160

But I don't know.


485

00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,160

Again, it's something I'm assuming they're going to explore further down the line.


486

00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,160

And as I said, I'm kind of in the dark on this one.


487

00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:22,160

But yeah, I think it's yeah, it could be could be an interesting kind of subplot to pick


488

00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:23,160

up with, as I said.


489

00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:29,160

I think if anything, if I was a better man, I'd say that they will probably do that homesickness.


490

00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:34,160

You know, she something happens, reminds her of Mickey and she goes, I miss home.


491

00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,160

You know, I think she's great, but I miss home.


492

00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:37,160

But there you go, listeners.


493

00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:42,160

If he said that live on air, if that doesn't happen, please feel free to leave comments


494

00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,160

berating Jack, go to his house and throw toilet paper.


495

00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:46,160

Please do.


496

00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,160

Not going to be the worst thing I've probably said on this.


497

00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,160

The worst theory I've had anyway.


498

00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:52,160

Right.


499

00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,160

So on that relationship to the two of them, 2005 was a weird time.


500

00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,160

She had to go around Mickey's house just to use the Internet.


501

00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:59,160

Oh, don't.


502

00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,160

It days it a bit, doesn't it?


503

00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:02,160

Oh, don't.


504

00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,160

It's really, don't go on my email.


505

00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:10,160

I also say she she doesn't Google.


506

00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,160

She uses whatever search engine she says.


507

00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:13,160

And she goes, Dr.


508

00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:14,160

Blue Box.


509

00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:15,160

And I made a note of this.


510

00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:16,160

Yeah.


511

00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,160

One hundred and ninety three results come up.


512

00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:19,160

Four hundred and ninety three.


513

00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:20,160

Full stop.


514

00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:21,160

That's it.


515

00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,160

I then put it into Google to see how many results come up.


516

00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,160

Would you like to take a guess?


517

00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,160

Well, I'm getting you're not.


518

00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:32,160

The only doctor who found her Google Dr.


519

00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:33,160

Blue Box anymore.


520

00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:34,160

Just give it a guess.


521

00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:35,160

Fairly.


522

00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,160

My is four hundred and ninety three is the benchmark.


523

00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:43,160

I'm going to say twenty five thousand plus seven hundred and thirty seven million.


524

00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:48,160

I know it's going to be more, but that's no.


525

00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:56,160

I mean, she would never find Clive's website if you search for it today.


526

00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,160

Yeah, no, for sure.


527

00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,160

I mean, you know, today she would have probably found another way of contacting him.


528

00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:02,160

You know, tick tock.


529

00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,160

She could have done a tick.


530

00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:10,160

So let's talk about Clive and his weird website.


531

00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,160

She's very lucky she didn't get raped in that shed.


532

00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:13,160

Right.


533

00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,160

That shed where the windows are boarded up.


534

00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,160

Come on.


535

00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,160

Very.


536

00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,160

You have to keep the CIA out.


537

00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,160

You know, you can't have the window with no newspaper.


538

00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,160

I mean, come on.


539

00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,160

But I think she knew she was all right there when the sun opened the door, because if he'd


540

00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:34,160

have opened the door himself, then you'd have been like, OK, obviously he lives in his own.


541

00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:38,160

But when the sun opened the door and then the wife was behind him, you're like, yeah,


542

00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:39,160

I can trust these.


543

00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:44,160

You know, I mean, security, maybe anybody listening wants to kidnap me.


544

00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,160

That is the way to do it.


545

00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,160

You know, just hire a hire a child and a woman and go, yeah, that'd be all right.


546

00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,160

You'll drop your guard immediately.


547

00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:52,160

Oh, yeah.


548

00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:57,160

I did like the casual sexism where the wife also goes, oh, woman is interested in your


549

00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,160

website about the doctor.


550

00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:00,160

Yeah.


551

00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:04,160

And that's a pretty accurate comment on the fan base nowadays as well.


552

00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,160

That's true.


553

00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:12,160

So I googled Clive's website and it is still a real working website.


554

00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:13,160

How brilliant is that?


555

00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,160

That's a good place.


556

00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,160

It's pretty cool.


557

00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,160

It's got a there's a contact us page section there.


558

00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:23,160

You should go through it just last and it's got comments from just loads of randoms.


559

00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,160

But one of the users that's left the comment was Marty McFly.


560

00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:31,160

And he's just left the comment something like that man stole my DeLorean or something along


561

00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:32,160

those.


562

00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,160

That attention to detail is pretty cool.


563

00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,160

I like that.


564

00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:37,160

That's brilliant.


565

00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:42,160

But that again, that's when you when you have people that have genuine affection for the


566

00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:47,160

yeah, for that, that thing, you know, that's what you want.


567

00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,160

That's that's what a lot of things miss out.


568

00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,160

But you know, Marvel doesn't have that anymore.


569

00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,160

You know, Marvel used to have that, but it doesn't anymore.


570

00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,160

You know, so yeah, exactly.


571

00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,160

That's nice.


572

00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,160

That's the one.


573

00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:00,160

Yeah, it's pretty cool.


574

00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:04,160

And then I was doing some research into it turns out Clive when he was a kid, his fascination


575

00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:08,160

for the doctor is when he was a kid, he traveled with the best doctor, the top doctor, Peter


576

00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:09,160

Cawley.


577

00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:10,160

So I thought that was quite interesting.


578

00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,160

They go on a Christmas adventure with each other.


579

00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,160

I think is what it said.


580

00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,160

That's where his fascination comes in.


581

00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,160

It was going to be after because they bumped him off, didn't they?


582

00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:23,160

At the end of the episode, mate, that is I forget.


583

00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,160

Let's just jump straight to it.


584

00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,160

Point blank.


585

00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,160

Shoot him in the face in front of his family.


586

00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,160

I mean, this is a kid show.


587

00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:32,160

I know.


588

00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,160

And that was the thing as well.


589

00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:40,160

Again, one of the last points I made was southern guns because you have these mannequin monsters,


590

00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:41,160

right?


591

00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,160

They're going to, you know, and this is the thing as well.


592

00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:47,160

You know, when they were chasing Rose down the act, like kind of the basement hallways,


593

00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,160

they were trying to go to the church.


594

00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,160

Yeah, like a little bit of a karate chop and that's it.


595

00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:56,160

And then suddenly they're in the middle of a shopping center and they've all got straps.


596

00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,160

And it's just like, where has that come from?


597

00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,160

I don't understand.


598

00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,160

And I know this is Dr.


599

00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:08,160

Who and it's sci fi and everything, but where is the firing mechanism in the arm?


600

00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:12,160

You know, it's maybe that department store was bigger.


601

00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,160

The department store was building guns into the mannequin.


602

00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,160

That's the only explanation for it.


603

00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,160

Like the baddest security in the world.


604

00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,160

Yeah, that's it.


605

00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,160

All you have to do is you have a shoplifter.


606

00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:26,160

They just press a button behind the till and then suddenly the mannequins just all turn around.


607

00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:27,160

It's like Robocop.


608

00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,160

It's just like season six.


609

00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:31,160

I don't know.


610

00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,160

I'll tell you what, you'd be bricking it if you walked out.


611

00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,160

Yeah, I'd extend you that, by any means.
