Doctor Who Listen Review

Hello and thank you for reading my review of the latest Doctor Who episode written by Steven Moffet- Listen.
One of the main elements that I thought made this story one of the most unique in terms of the basis of the episode is concentrated on the Doctor's psychology and his own fears.
As a fan into the intricate threads of the Doctor's mind I rolled around with a look of joy on my face when I absorbed myself into this story.
What I love about Steven Moffet's writing is that he takes the most ordinary thoughts and fears of us all and twists and moulds into in a frenzy of disturbing and terrifyingly stories that dig into the characters lives.
Alongside the Doctor theorising and frowning at the invisible and if at all real creature was Clara's romantic liasion with the Mr Pink.
I find Danny a very peculiar and fascinating man and find his and Clara's first date to be really funny and quietly beautiful in the midst of the Doctor popping up all over the place.
Also, I would like to highlight on the Doctor and Clara's relationship in this episode as feeling like the doctor wants so desperately to protect her and the special scenes of the doctor standing in Clara's bedroom after her hideously awkward date a rare but cherishable relationship that is so strange and wonderful that I never want it to end... which it will I'm guessing probably very soon.... great.
Anyway moving on, I think what was really interesting about Listen was how Clara will have to deal with the realisation that she's just met the younger version of her date and majorly influenced him to become a soldier. Timey wimey I'll bet.
But what was a complete shocker was we got to see a smidge for the first time ever (I think) of the doctor as a child and finally discovering why the War Doctor decided to travel to a barn in the middle of almost nowhere. Thank you Steven for relieving me of that burden.
It was so intelligent of him to complete that story of Clara being the person who instigated those fears into the doctor and to influence his decision to go back to the barn in the 50th anniversary.
That raises the question; did the creature in this story actually exist? Well, I think it did because the doctor wasn't the only one who saw the mysterious being and Clara also heard the knocking coming from the other side of the locked door at the end of the universe.
Similiar to Midnight, I like the uncertainty and creepiness that we never get to actually see the creature or find out what it was, where it came from and what it wanted.
The direction of was thrilling and creative, the story sublime and the script was plotted cleverly, there was warmth, hilarity, darkness, mystery and magnificence in the Doctor's thoughts and his interaction with Clara. One of the best!!

Doctor Who Robot of Sherwood Review

Hello Whovians,

One of the magical ingredients of Doctor Who is that the tone, style, story and characters change so vividly and rapidly each week.
And this week was one of warmth, comedy, archery competitions and a fictional character- Robin Hood!
I have to admit I haven't really seen much of Robin Hood or know much about him so this episode really helped me to understand who he is and why he's such a legend in the storytelling universe.
Casually, this story begins with the doctor asking Clara where she would like to go and then completely dismisses her in pure Capaldi brilliance.
Here comes the TARDIS landing in Sherwood Forest and is greeted by an arrow puncturing the blessed time machine.
I loved the contrast in tone from last week because in every series you want a mix of different stories which each individual can enjoy and pick as their favourite.
Blatantly, the doctor spends the majority of his time agreeing with Robin and disbelieving that he is indeed real.
This was where the immense comedy factor resided and I found their relationship very refreshing and thoroughly enjoyable.
Clara to me felt like the one to save the day as her characteristics of taking the lead and making the doctor follow her really expanded her character even further and her genuine admiration for Robin was really sweet and absorbing in terms of how cute she was around him.
Peter Capaldi continued to push his version of the doctor into new territory and how his reactions and relationships with the people around him are I feel were very unpredictable which at some moments are really scary which I like.
In addition, I don't think the story was the main focus for this episode but obviously the structure and quality has to be maintained which it does clearly because I was constantly thinking which characters were the robots and which were real.
Also, the doctor's conversation with Robin at the end of the story was very enlightened and I felt like Robin taught the doctor something and proudly expressed his acceptance of not knowing whether he was real and admitting he wasn't a hero.
Relating to this, I believe the main point of this story was not only to throw a lot of laughs but to delve into the doctor questioning whether he thinks he is a hero or not which in this instance we don't really discover.
This was the right decision because I don't think a real hero would ever fully accept that they were a hero because otherwise they wouldn't do the things that they do to be the hero so I applaud Mark Gatiss for exploring this piece of the Doctor's character whilst injecting a dose of fairytales, wildly strange characters and an intelligent but not to selfish plotline.
Now let's listen.........
