Is the Doctor now officially 2 billion & 2000 years old?
Is he now just a copy of himself rather than the original?
Why was the castle still in the ocean at the end, wouldn't it now be grounded on an island made of 100 billion+ skulls..... that really would be called Skull Island!
Personally I liked it even though I immediately thought the burnt hand in the opening shot was the Doctor, so not a big surprise by the ending.
I was more stunned when I realised he'd been stuck there 7000 years, when the numbers went up I thought it just went a bit silly and actually had less impact than the original 7000 year statement.
Also not too sure about punching something 400 times harder than diamond, might have been better if he had have had some sort of minor metal tool to hand....especially as he didn't even make a small tunnel through it but a massive 6-foot high passageway.
And has evolution stopped for the Timelords...... still the same old human-looking people after all that time.
Overall this has been a better season than recent ones, lets hope the final episode is decent. |

| This episode scored more points than "Breaking Bad" on IMDB. I can only deduce that The episode that I saw is different from one that the Viewers who vote on IMDB saw. This was one of the very worst episodes I have ever seen. How old is he now ? He puched his way through a substance 400 times harder than diamond. Really!!!. Come back "Timelash" all is forgiven. 0/10 |

Just caught up, watched it on iPlayer in bed last night (fell asleep) and this morning.
Afraid I got lost in all that. Lovely acting from Peter, and lovely cinematography and, as usual, effects. But the story is the key, and this one didn't unlock my door to enjoyment
I watched Tom Baker in Planet Of Evil on the Horror Channel last night, which I enjoyed, again, and understood (more or less!).
I'll maybe watch tonight's finale, if I'm around, but, unlike the Russell TD era, I won't be looking forward to it, or leaving the recorder on.
Please, everyone, feel free to leave your honest views about the series on these boards. They become a bit pointless if you don't. |

| Loved every second of this episode. A true masterpiece. 100/10 |
A cosmos without The Doctor scarcely bears thinking about... |
