Quickly... (The Zygon Inversion)

'Meanwhile, some people sang songs on the other side [ITV]. At a point where the BBC is seemingly under relentless attack, this is what a licence fee buys you. Karaoke is free, as long as you're happy to watch the John Lewis advert. Ambitious Saturday night drama has to be paid for.'

ETA: I can't believe I didn't realise that this was broadcast the evening before Remembrance Sunday. That's some incredible planning.

It was very very good.

Now I just need to work out what MY mind is doing...

Clara was placed into a dream world again. Except this time it was similar to CAL from "Silence In The Library/Forest of the Dead.

The fact that Clara was trying to turn the gun on "herself", went over my head. That was dark. Who knew she could be so resourceful while being unconscious?.:o

That scene towards the end when the Doctor wanted Clara to clear it so he could talk to Osgood alone. He looked like a guy about to ask a girl out on a date.:D

About time... ;)

She's Clara!

Rather, yes. And I guess it was the Doctor's version of asking a girl out.

"About time... ;)"

I know there have been discussions about Clara being CAL and I was wondering if there is a point to it or if Moffat likes to repeat certain concepts over and over again?.

"She's Clara!"

Of course she is!. Is this like in "The Witch's Familiar" where the Doctor gets tea from somewhere and it's never explained?. Except I should say: "She's Clara. Just accept it".:)

"Rather, yes. And I guess it was the Doctor's version of asking a girl out.'

So cute!. Asking a fangirl out.:)

We had something similar with previous Doctors:

*Nine and Lynda, but she died!.

*Eleven and Rita, but she died!.

*With Ten it was some form of seduction with his whole: "Come with me into this blue police box I parked down this dark alleyway"...

Either that or being all "sad puppy" the first time he asked Donna.
Then it's all "no more!. I don't care if you are a pretty young thing!. I'm traveling alone! I'm hurting!".

Sorry if I made Ten sound too dramatic and the fact I've gone a little off track.:)
