The adventure continues.
It’s the evening of March 11, 2011, and I’m at home alone, staving off boredom by watching all of Doctor Who season 5 with the aid of gin and tonic. As I continue to post about it on Facebook, more and more friends are becoming aware of what’s happening…
NB – as before, if your name or image is on these screenshots and you’d rather it wasn’t, PM me on Facebook and I’ll edit the image. Thanks!
And now, onwards with:
Season 5, Episode 2: The Beast Below
As the story begins, the Doctor and Amy find themselves on a vast, mysterious spaceship. When are they?
Steven Moffat’s script introduces a less than subtle note of political satire:
The Queen pops up. With a bloody big gun.
(No idea why I singled out Charles II. He did have good parties though.)
Unlike the first time, I’m rather enjoying the episode, so no more comments until the final verdict:
A shorter post than the last, but as you can imagine, the next episode prompted a LOT more debate…
