Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'


Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

The ring looked a lot like the Doctor's watch when he became human.

Trust my rage

Oh, I like that re: the silver cloak. And yes, the ring had a similar design. I wonder if Prof. Yana had the ring? Did we ever see that?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

When have we seen the Doctor tear up like that before? I don't recall having seen him quite this broken and down, even about Rose.

Also, how did we know Wilf was special?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Is it over on BBCA?

Well, like Donna, he keeps crossing paths with the Doctor.

Yes, we're getting the behind-the-scenes program now.

Did we know before today that he was more special than, say, Micky?

I think the Doctor feels very protective about the human race. Add that and to how he feels about having had to mind-block Donna and I can see how he's starting to get a bit overwhelmed.

Also, I did not get a preview when I ahemmed, do they show anyone else surviving the Master-ization?
