I love a woman who can rock suspenders. Or...in this instance should I say braces?
I also love the Dexy's Midnight Runner meets Mork from Ork thing she's got going on.

As expected, it looks comically baggy on her

It's an interesting look, and you have to remember that the Doctor has only ideas and experiences about how women are supposed to dress from the people she's encountered, so you'd expect it to be a little peculiar, as there is no previous behaviour to fall back on! I liked the reveal costume, pity that's not the actual one, but it was a bit "Scottish Widows" like hah.

Well... to be strictly true here... people actually started referring to it as "World War One" before the war actually ended. Most definitely long, LONG before WW2 was a twinkling in Hitler's eye.
It was commonly referred to as the "Great War (for Civilisation)" but it wasn't an exclusive name. But on the side of probabilities here, Gatiss' character is likely to originate from a time prior to it being labelled as WW1 and thus the joke still works. Besides, WW1 didn't "officially" end until 2010... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...ally-ends.html

I've been meaning to get into this series and I keep losing interest/getting occupied with other stuff. I've watched the pilot episode from Eccleston's season, but that's it.
Is it like Power Rangers, where having context of the other stuff that came before is good, but not exactly necessary? I don't have the time to sit through 10 (?) seasons of TV these days.

If you don't feel like going through ten years and two distinctly different showrunner eras, my advise would be to stick with the first four series and 2009 specials, which represents the era of Russel T. Davies as the showrunner. It has a very clear beginning, middle, and end. |

My thoughts on "Twice Upon A Time"
Very much a character piece with not a whole lot of stake to it. Bradley was not needed, the whole thing with Bill, the Captain and Tesitmoney could have benefited more without his presence. The Captain's fate was determined by a flimsy gobbledygook explanation Moffat pulled out of his arse. I liked the whole Christmas armistice thing and the resolution, at last, to the War Doctor situation, but there could have been a tighter explanation. Moffat also failed, in my eyes, to present a convincing case for Capaldi to carry on with his life. Capaldi seems to just come to a sort of "I suppose so" kind of calm resignation. Maybe that's how we all make it through a year come the start of a new one, I don't know. On one hand I did like the callbacks to the RTD era, Into The Dalek, and Tenth Planet, but recycling the highs and lows of previous era (mostly highs) isn't a very confident practice, as it makes it look like the show is having an ongoing mid-life crisis trying to remind everyone of the earlier days when all people embraced it from 8 to 80. |

I finally got around to watching it.
I'm delighted that the "Naked Daleks" and Rusty weren't spoiled for me . Can't imagine how confused he would have been if time unfroze and the Doctor was already gone. The Christmas Armistice was a nice twist, and I should have seen the Captain's identity coming a mile away. But it was still nice. However, the best part for me was Capaldi's final line to stamp out Tennant's, since he'd been clinging to "I don't want to go" for so long that "Doctor, I let you go" was like a breath of fresh air after drowning. Now, how the New Doctor is coming away from her...situation...I have no idea XD

That was a real thing that happened, in case you didn't know.
