00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,960
Alright, hello everybody and welcome back to another episode of Doc Who Pod. I am Josh
2
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,040
and with me as always is my co-host JP. How are you JP?
3
00:00:10,040 --> 00:00:11,920
I'm all good thank you. All good.
4
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:17,320
Very good and I'm good as well. Thanks for asking. And this week we have a special guest.
5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,200
We're not quite calling him a co-host yet because we don't know if he's ever going to
6
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:21,200
be on again. Bradley Fuller.
7
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,280
We are finally joining. Pleased to finally be here. Sorry it took so long.
8
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,400
Do you think you're going to be a permanent guest? Sebi permanent guest?
9
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,680
Yeah we'll see how it goes.
10
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,400
The reason we have to get him on this week, we were getting calls from the police and
11
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,120
they were like look we just keep hearing this guy called Bradley turn up in the episode
12
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,480
but nobody's ever heard of him. So we just decided that.
13
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:48,000
Well I am the face behind the TikTok account that is so good at the moment. Getting all
14
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,360
the likes, all the followers and I was smashing it so you know I had to come on didn't I?
15
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:57,560
It's so good at the moment there hasn't been a post yet. There hasn't been a post for two
16
00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:58,560
weeks now is it?
17
00:00:58,560 --> 00:00:59,560
Is it that long are you timing it?
18
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:03,560
I think it's about two weeks. I go on and check on a daily basis.
19
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:08,200
I've had to catch up on a few episodes so yeah I'm a bit behind but you've got all the
20
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:09,200
season one's catch up.
21
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:10,200
I hope.
22
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:14,560
You've just looked. I've just had a notification that you're looking on the TikTok.
23
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:19,560
26th of August was the last post. You're really letting the team down at the minute.
24
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,040
Yeah it will come back up to speed don't you worry.
25
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,720
But anyway as me and Jack have discussed on previous episodes the whole point of this
26
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,000
was it was going to be the three of us from the start and then Brad chickened out and
27
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:35,120
wanted us to spin the wheels for the first series and see if he's got any legs or anything.
28
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:42,920
Now he's seen that we've become pretty famous. He wants to board this fame train and here
29
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:43,920
he is.
30
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:50,320
So this week we are talking about New Earth. The first episode in series two. First David
31
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:54,800
Tennant episode. The episode in which I've written the least notes I think. Pretty much
32
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:59,160
my only note in this is how fucking fit is Billy Piper in this one.
33
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:06,560
Oh yeah. I mean look if you'd have watched it back in you know how old were we in 2006
34
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,840
was this now when it came out was it 2006.
35
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:10,280
Yeah like eight years old.
36
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:14,400
Yeah eight years old. I mean that's just every kid's dream isn't it really. You know you
37
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,640
kind of border on your first crush kind of thing.
38
00:02:16,640 --> 00:02:20,440
Yeah so I found out whilst doing research that she actually wore a push-up bra for the
39
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:24,360
scenes where she was Cassandra and then took it off for the scenes that she was Rose.
40
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:25,360
Really.
41
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,400
Yeah yeah. Fact yeah.
42
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,400
Interesting.
43
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:32,160
Well I say fact it was on the trivia section of IMDB.
44
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,160
Fair enough there we go. Well that's a gentle introduction to the thing. I do agree with
45
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:40,000
you about you know kind of the past couple of episodes not the later episodes of season
46
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:44,560
one. You know I had kind of reamed the notes on this one but I've kind of gone back to
47
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:52,680
not really taken a lot of notes for this episode. It was okay but yeah no very interesting.
48
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:58,520
I feel like we need some very jazzy Northseas music though to introduce this podcast because
49
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:03,880
straight away off the bat it was just in with some jazzy like kind of sci-fi intro music
50
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,680
while they were introducing you know well kind of while Rose and the Doctor were saying
51
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,880
goodbye to Jackie and Mickey and it just again it just took me back. It's just like that
52
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:16,880
kind of stereotype like kind of stereotypical intro music for sci-fi. I don't think they
53
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,040
really did in season one so it's quite interesting to hear that.
54
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,480
Yeah there's been a bit of a change for this series right. I had never realised before
55
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:29,840
but I wonder if you had. The TARDIS is in a different place to where it's left at the
56
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:34,760
end of Christmas Invasion and apparently the internet is littered with theories that Rose
57
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:39,560
and the Doctor have already been on a few adventures before they do this one.
58
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,000
What do you mean it's in a different place? What one? Where they're parked at? At the
59
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:48,160
end of the last one? Yeah at the end of Christmas Invasion it's in a place and then at the start
60
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:52,960
of this episode it's in a different place and apparently there are some stories and
61
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:58,040
there is I remember this there was a on the Doctor Who website there used to be games
62
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:02,280
did you ever play them Brad? Oh yeah of course I did the Dalek one was a classic. The Dalek
63
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:08,160
one was sick yeah but there was also one called like Attack of the Grask or Grask or something
64
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:14,120
do you remember that? Oh that's the thing from Sarah Jane Adventures yeah. Yeah so apparently
65
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:20,080
that takes place in between Christmas Invasion and this episode. Oh I do remember that actually
66
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:25,280
to be fair. It was like a video thing right like it was actually like they'd filmed something
67
00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:29,840
yeah wasn't it like in the TARDIS? Something like that yeah. You watched the screen in
68
00:04:29,840 --> 00:04:34,560
the TARDIS and you had to do like tasks and stuff. Yes yes yes yes yes it was fucked.
69
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:41,680
Yeah yeah. How do I remember that? So yeah anyway JP presumably you've got no idea what
70
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:46,240
this is. Well I mean I know a video game visitor because I know what a Dalek is now but the
71
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,680
one thing I'm thinking though is I mean say you've got a car for example and you leave
72
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,840
your car I don't know around your mates or down the road or something like that would
73
00:04:53,840 --> 00:04:57,640
it not be easier to just park the car especially if like because Rose obviously goes in with
74
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,560
a big old backpack with loads of stuff and everything like that isn't Doctor just not
75
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:06,120
being a nice person just parking closer? Yeah that comes up in a future episode he helps
76
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:11,640
someone moving by landing the TARDIS on or the luggage and then it just gets like absorbed
77
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,680
by the TARDIS and then it moves but anyway do you want to start running through your
78
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:21,800
notes JP? Right so next though talking about the bag and Rose and everything of course
79
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:27,480
we get some very sombre goodbyes between the Doctor Rose, Mickey and Jackie and of course
80
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:32,440
what's interesting yeah I'll put a note that Rose actually has a bag she never took any
81
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:37,400
possessions with her you know in the TARDIS at all so I know what you're saying about
82
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,840
you know kind of when we did the Christmas special they're kind of redoing Rose's character
83
00:05:41,840 --> 00:05:45,480
off and everything like that so it looks like to me now she's a bit more dedicated she's
84
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:50,280
yeah a bit more she's got a little bit more planning now you know it's kind of she's there
85
00:05:50,280 --> 00:05:55,680
for the long term she's in you know kind of you know she's thinking in the future to be
86
00:05:55,680 --> 00:06:00,000
said and another thing I noticed as well she gave Mickey a big old kiss on the lips. Yeah
87
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,400
I've got that note as well that was strange of it yeah I mean what is strange and it's
88
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:08,520
not strange because you know say we were trying to work out last season was you know what
89
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,800
is the relationship between Rose and Mickey, Rose and the Doctor, Rose and Captain Jack
90
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:17,840
and everything like that and I just I just don't know I still don't know we're you know
91
00:06:17,840 --> 00:06:22,400
a season in now and I've got no idea because at the end of you know I mean in the Christmas
92
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,040
in the Christmas special they were very flirty and it was almost like okay they're going
93
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:31,080
for more a romantic relationship between Rose and the Doctor but now it's kind of back to
94
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:36,280
Mickey I don't know it's very weird I'd love to know actually what the writers what kind
95
00:06:36,280 --> 00:06:40,000
of the direction that they wanted to take you know kind of the relationship between
96
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:44,000
the characters. Well you only have to wait a few episodes to find out really did you
97
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,520
not think they were becoming a lot more romantic in this episode of the Doctor and Rose? I
98
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,680
wouldn't have said so actually no. Are you mad that bit when they're sitting on the grass
99
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:57,640
and they're on top of a top of his coat and she's like oh this is where we had our first
100
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:03,720
date and they're holding hands and they have a snog and I don't know because then I just
101
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:08,280
I was still taken from the you know I saw you know kind of when she left Mickey I was
102
00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:11,880
then under the impression that actually she's more serious with Mickey so I was like I'm
103
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:16,920
looking at the Doctor and the Rose just being a friend you know kind of it's just two friends
104
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:22,840
sitting on a coat in the grass looking at the very very shittily animated flying cars but
105
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:28,120
um no I thought for sure they were flirting more this episode. Brad do you obviously know
106
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,440
what happens? Did you not think they were romantic in this episode? I'd agree with you to be fair
107
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:37,320
I mean the thing I want to know is what happened to Trish Delaney because she never gets mentioned
108
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:45,160
again after Mickey runs off with her. Yeah and it kind of feels like at that point that Rose and
109
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,080
Mickey are sort of ended or he comes back and helps her in the finale of the last series but
110
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:54,040
yeah it was I felt like in this episode uh like you said like he was laying on the grass and
111
00:07:54,040 --> 00:08:00,760
although just skipping ahead a bit uh when she is taken over by Cassandra and uh she kisses him
112
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:06,040
you know he sort of he seems like pretty happy about that he's not like against it
113
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,760
so it does feel like they are getting closer. I reckon so yeah and that's one of the best lines
114
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:17,160
in the episode as well still got it. Still got it. Yeah no I mean that's true no I do again there
115
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:21,640
was a few I don't know it just to me it just seems a bit more of a flirtatious relationship rather
116
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:30,040
than a kind of a sticker tag on it in the series kind of thing but I don't know we're just I think
117
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,880
that the whole thing with Mickey you know right at the start there I just kind of just put me in the
118
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:39,320
mindset that was like okay it's just uh as I said some kind of like flirtatious relationship between
119
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,640
Rose and the Doctor and you know it's obvious that the Doctor cares about Rose because you see back
120
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:48,040
and forward like when Cassandra starts taking you know kind of taking over Rose's body and everything
121
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:53,320
it's Rose he's caring about Rose he's concerned about Rose you know not when they affected her
122
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:57,800
there he's like make sure you don't let them touch you you know you you need to keep Rose
123
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:03,800
alive so I don't know it's very I think the further I'm watching season two I'm hoping I
124
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,800
should have a better idea of kind of what it is but um but it seems like you've got your mindset
125
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:12,840
already so I feel like I feel like the same that I'm due to see that he's gonna change the wind a
126
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,040
bit well if he doesn't want to shag her after this episode there's something wrong with him
127
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:23,480
is what I'm trying to get at yeah I mean I kind of briefly mentioned it there the uh animation was
128
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:28,840
a bit shit what in terms of what well there's there was two instances I was just like Jesus
129
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:34,280
that's not hold up the flying cars was definitely one the flying cars just didn't look that that
130
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:42,520
looked like this is 2006 though yeah and tv yeah but I mean like you you know kind of the cgi I
131
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:47,080
suppose it was cgi yeah the cgi in season one actually I thought held up I was like okay it
132
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:52,680
doesn't look too bad but I don't know the the flying cars just didn't look quite there and
133
00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:58,040
there's a there's a death where um one of the cats for like the cat lady things falls down the
134
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:06,040
yeah and it was just like oh my god that's just shit we'll get to that scene yeah yeah we'll
135
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:11,000
get to that scene but um but yeah okay so yeah cgi a little bit bad but the what did you think
136
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:17,960
of like the practical uh you know diseased makeup and the cats are fucking brilliant that's good
137
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:24,440
oh yeah don't make that yeah the actual the actual practical effects you know the costumes the makeup
138
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:30,680
um it's still top color yeah it's still top quality I to me I think it holds up now you know you it
139
00:10:30,680 --> 00:10:36,360
wouldn't look out of place if it was put on tv now it wouldn't look out of place um yeah which
140
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,280
is just the testament to you know kind of the work that's done by the by the uh by the artists
141
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:46,040
I did like that they had all the nurses in the background wearing veils just for no reason then
142
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,880
we don't have to put makeup on them yeah no exactly that that's that you know I thought
143
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:54,360
that straight away as well as okay yeah that's but again that's a smart business decision rather
144
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,760
than you know trying to blow your budget on trying to get everybody looking like that you know you
145
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,280
make a decision and again you know it doesn't look out of place all right you have to pretend
146
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:07,880
that they can see through the veils but yeah you know it's it's a smart move by the you know by the
147
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:13,080
writing team but um uh yeah it's all good smart move the uh of course we get that little robot
148
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:18,520
bug uh spider bug thing come up when uh rosen the doctor just chilling on the grass and then
149
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,760
straight away I just put in brackets of cassandra appearance because the last time we saw those
150
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:28,440
robot folks was in um end of the world the name is end of the world that's the end of the world
151
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:32,600
when cassandra made her last appearance and so did the face of bow and everything like that
152
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:37,000
and of course it was it was then cassandra you hear cassandra's voice said oh i need to see her
153
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:42,680
face and eat her face so bloody hell right it's quite a cool comeback uh like kind of a cool little
154
00:11:42,680 --> 00:11:48,600
cool way i think yeah i think she's quite a good villain to be fair yeah actually she's i just it's
155
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,600
one of those things isn't it again you can tell it's a russell t davis episode because it's
156
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:57,720
definitely a comment on you know kind of the appearance and kind of people changing their
157
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:02,440
appearances because they think that they're not you know kind of they don't feel comfortable in
158
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,440
their own bodies and they feel like they need work done and you know it's obviously a comment to that
159
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:11,320
but i do think she's a good villain she's very um what's the word i'm looking for manipulative i
160
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:17,000
think maybe okay in what sense i don't know she's just she does everything for personal gain like
161
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:23,240
in terms of that she wants you know like she she wanted a new body so she trapped rose down there
162
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:29,080
and then she was just like right now i want money now and then she's saying to the cat ladies that
163
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:33,320
you know like give me this money otherwise i'm gonna send the whole you know i'm gonna gonna
164
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,560
send everything to the news and everything like that like and it's because she's doing everything
165
00:12:37,560 --> 00:12:43,240
for personal gain i think the kind of the ending of the episode actually kind of closes off her
166
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:49,720
arc and the fact that she actually did something for good um which i quite liked i thought was good
167
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:53,800
okay let's talk about that then do you feel her redemptive arc was earned i wouldn't say it was
168
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:59,000
earned because she didn't really do anything to uh kind of help i mean the only reason she jumped
169
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:03,240
down the elevator shaft was because the infected were coming after and that was the only option
170
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,480
she had because they shut the door behind so i wouldn't say it was really earned but then she
171
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:11,800
realized the kind of not the error of her ways because again there was nothing really to do
172
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:16,280
with her it was just that she realized that the infected were actually people and you know she
173
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:21,000
was being a bit mean but it was just nice to see that actually she had a kind of a bit of a
174
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:27,320
realization and you know it kind of it was what i really liked about the ending though was it kind
175
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:32,200
of closed a loop because right at the start of the episode she says i've only been called beautiful
176
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,680
once because the the video is playing in the background when rose first goes down yeah and
177
00:13:36,680 --> 00:13:42,600
that's the video of course like from from where rose the doctor and her turn up at the end and
178
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,760
she said oh i really i wish i could go back to you because it was the only time someone ever called
179
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:51,640
me beautiful yeah yeah and then it was her calling herself it was her calling herself so beautiful
180
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:57,480
which i thought was quite quite sweet it was quite sweet uh sweet ended but um did you think it was
181
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:03,960
well earned or i mean if i'm honest as as cassandra is a villain i don't think she's really all that
182
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:08,040
i don't really see the point of her because yeah all right she's the last human and you know she
183
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:12,520
i get in in the end of the world like she actually had something she was going for but in this episode
184
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:17,240
i don't really see what her aim was and that's another thing i felt about this episode and we'll
185
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:22,920
come on to that probably i don't really feel like she was actually the the villain when you actually
186
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:28,760
think about the episode what causes the danger for the doctor and rose is the infections and the cats
187
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:34,120
who have caused all of this so i see the cats and that as the actual main villain and at the end of it
188
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:39,640
kind of ends up helping cassandra yeah so i got the impression that cassandra found out there was
189
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:44,040
something going on they were doing dodgy experiments she was like right i'm gonna basically blow the
190
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,960
whistle or get them to pay me off and that's how i'm gonna pay my money but you brought up a good
191
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:54,360
point there the cats are the villains are they though or are they working in the greater good
192
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:59,880
of humanity i feel like that's one that we should cover later in the uh in the podcast because
193
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:05,960
all right we'll build up to it i got some notes i got some notes on that later in the episode
194
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:11,400
because yeah it's it's an interesting one it's an interesting one um new new york is an interesting
195
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:19,960
one as well oh here we go the future armor fan comes out the future yeah i love that i just thought
196
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:24,440
that's brilliant but um i just made me chuckle he just goes oh it's new new york and oh well
197
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:31,000
technically it's new new new new new new new 15 new york new new new new new new new new new new york
198
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:36,520
you're such someone counted back yeah someone counted back and let us know in the comments
199
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:41,560
did he actually make the 15 but no i quite like that i think that's that's pretty uh you know
200
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:47,640
made me chuckle anyway um also made me chuckle as well there's two things that they do and kind of
201
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:52,600
smart editing which really really made me laugh um because while cassandra's looking at rosen the
202
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:58,920
doctor through the the spider robot thing she says about get get revenge on that little bit and then
203
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:23,000
they then they cut and of course the doctor goes a little bit of adult humor you know kind of
204
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,240
kids may not recognize it but of course adults will kind of take a double take and think oh
205
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:33,720
to the minute can i be showing the kid this but um yeah yeah exactly racy episode yeah no i thought
206
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:39,320
was quite funny um i mean what's up with a cat ladies though that's a random one how do you think
207
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:44,520
that came about do you think do you think we've shagged a cat and that's how that's happened yeah
208
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:48,760
i mean well the thing is because they called the sisters a plain student yeah which is a very kind
209
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:54,600
of you know they've obviously taken inspiration from like you know people are flying sliding gal
210
00:16:54,600 --> 00:17:00,120
and you know kind of sisters in waltz and everything like that but she let me oh dear
211
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:06,840
oh actually yeah it's been a kind of but um yeah i just i don't know it's very very weird like it's
212
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:12,360
just a cat lady i mean as i said i thought that was a hentai and because you know you see cat
213
00:17:12,360 --> 00:17:17,960
ladies all over the internet but yeah it's just very weird i mean maybe maybe that was a start of
214
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:23,640
a of an obsession for a generation right there just cat ladies in nonsu all right well here's
215
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:33,480
a question for you then brad uh would you uh probably not no you don't want some feline action
216
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,600
yeah so of course the doctor and bros go into the hospital and the doctor's quite obsessed with
217
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:47,880
having a gift shop there like kind of i'm glad you mentioned that it's a bit of a random one i
218
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:53,160
mean it's a fair point you know i was in i was in uh in a hospital yesterday and uh you know kind
219
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:57,960
of trying to find a fucking shop to get something to eat it's just impossible like you know you need
220
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:02,760
a good shop yeah every hospital has a good shop that becomes a running joke i think right brad
221
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:09,320
that's it yeah yeah we don't want to jump too far ahead but um you think about first episode of the
222
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:16,520
next series do you remember oh yeah yeah yeah can't talk about that i want to know all right well
223
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:23,560
we could briefly talk about it then so that leads on to sort of the reveal of the face of bow um so
224
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:30,600
we're in the face of bow sequel which then becomes a trilogy because he obviously has his secret that
225
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:35,560
he's not going to tell the doctor so jp i was obviously due to ask you did you spot the easter
226
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:40,920
egg in this episode um it's not in this episode it's not because there's no angels in it i'm
227
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:45,640
convinced i'm on it i'm on the angel hype train that's it that's that's me i'm feeling the angel
228
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:51,000
you'll be pleased to know it's laid the easter egg for season three so you need to now be on
229
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:55,480
the lookout for season two and season three interesting before we go talking about the face
230
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:59,640
of bow though and he's kind of trilogy there is something i actually wanted to point out because
231
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:04,920
of course they go in the elevators and that's when they get separated two things one that's a bit of
232
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,760
a dick move with the disinfectant i mean just imagine that you just there i love you zone a
233
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:14,280
bit of paper or something well do you again funny note whilst i was doing my research david tenant
234
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:18,760
filmed that first on a day billy piper wasn't there then they didn't tell billy piper what the
235
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:25,560
disinfectant was going to be so her reaction while she's getting is absolute genuine genuine
236
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:29,960
yeah i thought i thought that because it did look like a genuine unscripted reaction which is quite
237
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,920
funny really i think they edited around all the swear words yeah and i was going to say yeah they
238
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:39,720
probably would have been a few swear words if it had been you know genuine reaction um but the other
239
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:44,680
thing i really liked about um it just kind of just a little thing that kind of developed rose's
240
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:50,040
character in here she says thank you to the elevator she's british well i just think it's a
241
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:54,600
nice thing to do in it you know you kind of she doesn't need to say thank you like it's like us
242
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:58,680
going to alexa you know you kind of say alexa play music and then it starts playing music and
243
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:06,360
go thank you you don't mean i always say my pleasing thank you to alexa do you yeah not always
244
00:20:06,360 --> 00:20:10,760
but most of the time let look right okay guys let us know in the comments or edit yeah on instagram
245
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:15,720
twitter anything like that let us know do you say thank you please yeah please do you say please
246
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,840
and thank you to an alexa because i'm genuine i want to know because i didn't think it was
247
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:24,280
the thing people did but basically do you have manners or not no no no because you're talking to
248
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:29,880
you're just well in fairness you are talking to a person in amazon but you know anyway i think what
249
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,960
builds more to her character is that she picks up that lead pipe as soon as she gets out of the
250
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:38,840
lift like she knows she's at the point where she knows yeah she doesn't do anything with it yeah i
251
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:44,600
mean if you're going down into a dark dingy alleyway and some creepy guy is calling your name you're
252
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:49,720
gonna grab something yeah but she doesn't know that she thinks she's on ward 26 with the doctor
253
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,560
she didn't know she's going down up left right she thinks this guy probably just chauffeured the
254
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:57,320
doctor i mean it's pretty obvious though like because at the end of the day she the reset
255
00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:01,160
yeah kind of the reception area of the hospital is all very nice all very white you know that kind of
256
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:07,240
thing um and then they go obviously she she goes down which again has got to be a bit like yeah
257
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:12,680
it's got to be a silent you've bought 26 you'd be going up yeah nhs wards aren't great at the
258
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:19,880
moment but it still looks better than what that did if it was a ward it'd be better than that
259
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:23,400
i was gonna say i had to grab a lead pipe yesterday anyway you know it's just you know let's just
260
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:27,960
defend off the locals but um that joke written down since you watched the episode
261
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:34,280
but um but yeah no i i think that you know it was pretty obvious that she wasn't in the right place
262
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:38,840
and again you know she's had a whole season worth of traveling with the doctors she's almost she's
263
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:43,800
almost got that kind of sixth sense of danger you know she's expected yeah exactly yeah she's not
264
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:49,240
naive anymore well i'd say that she was naive anyway but she's more switched on now that she's
265
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:54,440
like okay now this could this could be trouble um which it ends up being anyway but um yeah no
266
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:58,360
it was i picked on that straight away you know she just grabbed the weapon and that was uh that was
267
00:21:58,360 --> 00:22:02,920
smart and but yeah then we go into the ward with the face of bo we found out it's the face of bo's
268
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:07,800
who's getting the message across which again you know him being psychic that explains how he gets
269
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:12,120
the message across to the doctor because i'm sitting there thinking how did someone write on
270
00:22:12,120 --> 00:22:17,560
the psychic paper did it did it actually say it was him that sent the message no it just said go
271
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:22,760
to uh go to floor 26 because the doctor says oh i'm here to see someone but i'm not sure who he is
272
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:28,920
um interesting but um yeah so that's almost interesting almost as interesting though as the
273
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:33,240
uh the kind of the exorcist treatment i mean the the treatments there i i don't know hospitals are
274
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:39,080
the best times but there were some interesting kind of treatments going on going on i mean well
275
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:43,080
first of all they had some kind of you know the scene in the exorcist where the the kid like rises
276
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:48,120
up from the bed and he's just levitating that above the bed yeah later god it was literally just
277
00:22:48,120 --> 00:22:52,840
levitating there and i was like that's a bit creepy but okay fair enough and then of course
278
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:57,560
you had the guy that was turning into stone and you know it just some very weird and wonderful
279
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:03,400
treatments and everything like that which again you know it just it's kind of you know it's props
280
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,800
to the to the writers and the effects group because you know you are in the future you know
281
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,640
you're five million years in the future there's bound to be some weird yeah weird and wonderful
282
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:17,000
diseases which you know they also got the creative fat so so fair play to them it was uh yeah i quite
283
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:21,880
quite like to for setting up you're in a hospital in the future you know we have hospitals now so
284
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,600
how do you determine between a hospital now and a hospital in the future well just yeah you have to
285
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:32,760
cure cases for levitation and stuff yeah exactly exactly right the stone guy do you reckon that's
286
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:39,480
an early case of the angels no if you if you think about without that's one thing again if you think
287
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:45,400
about what the rumors are behind the angels there's no way that could relate to the angels but there's
288
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:50,360
the episode with amy where she starts slowly turning to stone right yeah but that's because
289
00:23:50,360 --> 00:24:00,360
the angels inside her well maybe the angels inside it there's no i reckon more is this a moffat story
290
00:24:00,360 --> 00:24:08,760
then no he could backtrack it no i don't don't think so i mean that could be me angel easter
291
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:14,200
again if you're saying that that's the thing that could be the angel easter oh yeah fair enough it
292
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:20,440
could be yeah maybe i'm calling i'm convinced it's the angel easter i've called this from from the
293
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:25,320
last episode of season one no and you should definitely call it every week yeah i do want to
294
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:29,800
check was the easter egg actually in this episode because i personally didn't see it myself no no
295
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:34,040
no i don't think it was okay i'm glad you said that though because at the end of the day i couldn't
296
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:39,720
see any angels unless it was this angel turning into stone but that was it i was sitting there
297
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:43,080
looking through it i was like i don't see any angels i was like oh no that's it and i'm so glad
298
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,360
that you jumped the gun and you said to me that the easter egg wasn't in there and i was like i
299
00:24:46,360 --> 00:24:53,400
thank god for that that's that saves my embarrassment so uh yeah so that's uh that's it um yeah and then
300
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:58,840
of course we see the face of both for a little callback uh well a second callback um from you
301
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,600
know kind of gisandra which i quite like actually i like that they kind of brought some of the
302
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:08,600
characters back from from episode two um season one yeah something that happens a lot throughout
303
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:14,680
the episode twos of russell's era to be fair yeah he's a moody bastard in this one though isn't he
304
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:20,920
doesn't say anything until the end he's starting at an old age man yeah yeah but then he just gets to
305
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,120
the episode he's like i actually know i actually don't feel like dying now see you later mate
306
00:25:24,120 --> 00:25:30,040
now didn't i say you got cured or something why what i don't know no i'm calling all that
307
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:35,080
drama so it's actually because they hadn't had season three commissioned at this point
308
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,760
so he wrote face of bone was going to give the story was going to reveal it at the end of this
309
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:43,800
series then they got commissioned for series three so he rewrote it but left him in so i think it's
310
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:49,320
a bit of a nothing included uh inclusion to be fair yeah okay yeah so they so they gambled hard
311
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:55,480
on it not being commissioned season three and then had to undo after they done okay i get it i get it
312
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,800
um what i don't get though is of course we got this high tech hospital in the future
313
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:07,320
so you've got weird and wonderful kind of potions iv bags people levitating cat nurses all that stuff
314
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:13,560
um but they decide to use see-through dust sheets as what you mean well if you look at the privacy
315
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:17,160
curtains and everything they just see through dust sheets like surely you'd be like oh let's
316
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:21,000
just put up a force field or something like i don't know i don't know i don't know is the
317
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:26,760
answer bbc and budget yeah it looked like they were painting the hospital while they were
318
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:30,440
while they were there you know there's loads of dust sheets hanging around everywhere there's
319
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:34,760
some bloke painting the ceiling another one drilling the walls you know that's it maybe that is what
320
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:39,400
hostels are like anyway they have those curtains it's like a it's our school thing isn't it yeah
321
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:45,160
but they're like kind of fabric curtains maybe this was the uh this would have been like the posh
322
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:49,960
exclusive ward so maybe they all know each other and it's like a networking event and what so you
323
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:55,560
can see each other through the curtains as you slowly die in bed if you were taken into hospital
324
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:59,960
and they said to you right just keep the noise down the guy next to you is slowly turning into
325
00:26:59,960 --> 00:27:04,040
stone would you or would you not want to see that oh i don't think i want to say i don't
326
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:08,280
want hospitals anyway it was a bit of a grim episode for me i'm not i'm not a fan of hospitals
327
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:13,640
if they said the person next to you is slowly levitating would you be like can i just have a
328
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:18,120
quick look i'd want to throw a few things and just see a bit bounced off like if it was like
329
00:27:18,120 --> 00:27:24,200
you know because you know what's like what's like what are you levitating you just want to throw
330
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:29,320
shit at people what's wrong with you then you try to put your hand underneath to see if anything's
331
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:34,040
popping up yeah like the hula hoop out but you know like when you're well you don't know when
332
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,160
you're in space but like when you're in space of course there's no like resistance so if you
333
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,400
was to throw something to someone all right you'd go the other way but when that object hits that
334
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:45,720
person they'd carry they'd then like kind of knock on and they'd just go for it i'd want to see if
335
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:50,840
you could just knock them into the wall that is the weirdest initial reaction i've ever heard i
336
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:58,280
think yeah i don't understand it i won't lie it's busy it's just yeah let's not get into it let's
337
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:05,400
move along so we then go to the old switcheroo the the old freaky friday switcheroo and uh
338
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:11,480
cassandra switches switches body well i can't even say she switches bodies with rose because rose just
339
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:17,560
is still in rose's brain it's just she's pushed to the back i think cassandra says or something
340
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:21,960
yeah she's being compressed into oblivion or something i think the doctor says at one point
341
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:26,440
right yeah which i guess is a convenient thing and of course they they also make it a convenient
342
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:32,840
point that her cassandra's brain that's in the jar is then completely decayed so she then can't go
343
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:37,000
back into it and i actually thought before they said that i was like oh shit rose is dead they've
344
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:42,360
just killed rose is the doctor gonna have to like kind of go through some weird you know kind of i
345
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,280
don't know some kind of psychic realm or something but no they they then said that she was actually
346
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:51,720
compressed at the back of her brain and again it made for yeah it was a convenient thing but um
347
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,320
yeah it comes back in human form and then she wants the d
348
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:00,360
then she wants the d
349
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:10,840
do you want to redo that jp that fellow deaf ears she was straight on the doctor you know so
350
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:14,360
i don't know maybe maybe she thought that david tennant was better looking than christopher
351
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:20,520
eccleston i think she's probably not wrong i mean she's 100 right yeah i don't know
352
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:28,760
it certainly gives way to just what must have absolutely blown my mind as a child even watching
353
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,520
it as an adult i'm like right i'm gonna have to pause and knock one out quickly because
354
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:37,480
oh fuck me she's so fit when cassandra is raised all the lines like living inside a bouncy castle
355
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:47,000
oh yeah fair play to billy piper and david ten because it just they were they had to act as a
356
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:52,440
character that was being taken over by a different character so they're almost playing two characters
357
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:57,720
at once and fair play to them they both absolutely smashed it i mean you know billy piper there with
358
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:03,080
the different accent and the different mannerisms and just it was just perfect and then david
359
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:08,680
tenent as well just playing cassandra as you know inside the doctor was just it was just brilliant
360
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:13,400
you know it was just so funny to watch and again it's a testament to good acting you know both
361
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:18,440
both obviously very good actors and and that's it but uh yeah no it was quite funny when she's
362
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:24,200
looking at herself in the mirror and she's just like oh no i'm the chad uh yeah i forgot the word
363
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:30,520
chad existed and i was like wow yeah i forgot about that word i bet camp david tenent is some
364
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:34,760
of your favorite stuff in this episode brad oh he's class isn't he come on anything david tenent does
365
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:39,640
we know he's brilliant and when he puts on a camp actor and it's it's just the best isn't it he's
366
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:47,000
pretty good to be fair yeah so we then of course then get a little bit more where um rose and the
367
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:52,520
doctor meet back up you know uh cassandra gets confused by a mobile phone and then works out how
368
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:56,760
to use it but it just makes me really funny how she starts putting cockney rhyming slang in there
369
00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:04,840
as well yeah yeah how does she speak old earth cockney yeah i'll be apple and pear yeah which
370
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:10,040
just really makes me laugh because it obviously must cockney rhyming slang must have existed
371
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:14,840
five million years in the future because like that's like in the same way that latin still
372
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:21,240
exists to a degree yeah but nobody speaks anymore some people do you get some fucking weirdos
373
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:25,960
yeah no it's that's it you know so the fact that cassandra had you know kind of knowledge
374
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:30,520
about cockney rhyming slang just say yeah it tells me that the companies they live around five
375
