Watch the Doctor Who Yule Log to Prepare for the Christmas Special!
Merry Christmas and happy holidays!
BBC America posted a lovely yule log for us to enjoy this weekend and threw in a few Doctor Who Christmas special clips to boot. Considering the episode will come and go while I’m out and about, let us use this spot as our open thread as well. That means spoilers for the big regeneration and all the rest of it will be in the comments. Proceed at your own risk!
My main issue is that I’m not a fan of Time Lords being able to will themselves not to regenerate (or regenerate only after a soliloquy) that’s cropped up in the revived series. The First & Twelfth (technically Thirteenth) Doctors regenerating is a forgone conclusion,
so listening to the two angst about it for unclear reasons isn’t dramatic. Twelve’s goodbye speech was too long & meta in a similar way to Ten’s protracted fan service exit. So the plot was pretty thin. https://www.themarysue.com/things-we-saw-today-happy-birthday-nichelle-nichols/
Working tonight so I didn’t get a chance to see it, but just wanted to stop by and wish everyone a merry Christmas!
