The Sound of Drums

[leoniedelt]

RTD, you're forgiven for Rose. Just this once, okay?

You've proven in two parts so far that you really CAN write decent science fiction without all that lovey-dovey Wose in wub shit that made me gag for 2 seasons straight.

This 3 parter is DEFINITELY going to be the best, EVER, in Who history.

And they showed The Capitol on Gallifrey, and adhered to the original 1976 Deadly Assassin Time Lord costumes. OMG. Fangirl squee all right. OMG.

The Master's a sinister devious fuck all right. John Simm is SUPERB, evil and funny all at the same time. And makes dirty phone calls to his rival TIme Lord, lol.

JELLY BABY SQUEE!

How's Ten going to get young again, I wonder? It looked like, in the preview, that the Master would continue torturing the life out of him literally - i enjoyed that, yes.


I have goosebumps. Holy fuck. I am just so utterly incoherent.

I can't think of anything to say, other than I really enjoyed the bit where the Doctor talked about Gallifrey, then they showed what it, or at least the Capitol, looked like.

I want to know what the hell our hermit trio is going to do, though. Lordy.

You and me both. Yes.

What do you think those Toclafane things are?

"Popular in the Southern United States, Grits is a type of maize porridge which is traditionally served at breakfast."

Reading that on the Fact File thing makes me giggle.

The children of Gallifrey, shunted forward into time to the end of the universe to survive the Time War, and the sound of Drums is the call for the Master to rescue them - the Time Lords didnt expect the Doctor to survive either.

That's just my theory anyway.

Hm... well that probably would break the Doctor's hearts. That's what the Master said, anyway. And he did call them "children", so... we'll see if you're right in the next episode!

Seeing as Martha's going to take the choice away from the Doctor and condemn them all to destruction, yes, it will break the Doctor's hearts.

That's my theory. We'll see if i'm right! 6 days to go! :D
