Double Post alert!
S1 Ep2: Tooth and Claw- 22/04/06 While aiming for Ian Dury, 10 and Rose end up in Victorian Scotland with Queen Victoria and a werewolf. Ordinary day, then. Plot Ten and Rose are in the TARDIS deciding where in all of time and space to go next, and Ten suggests Earth. He likes that planet more than Haruto loves doughnuts. Aiming for an Ian Dury concert in 1979, the TARDIS lands 100 years earlier. In Scotland. (It's like aiming for Croyden and getting Aberdeen). They meet Queen Victoria, where the Doctor introduces himself as Doctor James MacCrimmon and apologises for Rose's 'nakedness'. He Psychic Papers himself into the group, which ends up at Torchwood house. The owner tries to talk them out of staying, but Queen Victoria insists. He reluctantly lets them in. While Rose tries to win a bet with Ten by making the Queen say "We are not amused", they are shown around the house by the Lord. In one room, a giant telescope exists. But it doesn't work as telescope. Too many prisms. They exchange tales about werewolves, and Rose goes to get changed into something proper. She gets captured by monks impersonating the house staff, and put with the other servants in a basement, in front of a cage. In the cage, there is a boy. Interchanged with this is Ten being told a wolf story, about how a werewolf exists in the moors. Meanwhile, Rose talks to the boy, who says various things, including that he is an alien, that he wants to bite Queen Victoria and turn her into a werewolf to take over the world, and that Rose has something of the wolf about her. As the full moon rises, the boy turns into a werewolf. The servants (plus Rose) escape just as Ten realises that, like every other myth in this universe, it is A) real and B) out to get him. He tells the servants to hide in the kitchen, and attempts to take the men to fight the creature. They shoot it in the face. When one man goes to see if it's dead, he gets eaten. So, not dead? The werewolf goes to find more food, in the form of the women, but can't go into the kitchen where they hide. Turns out it's scared of Mistletoe (the Monks needed to control it somehow). The Lady of the House decides to stop waiting, and starts mashing up all the remaining bits of Mistletoe. Tens attempts to get Queen Victoria out of the house are thwarted when it's revealed they are locked in, and the windows are guarded. They take refuge in the library, where it's revealed the previous owner of the house coated the room in Mistletoe. They read in a book that he knew about the werewolf, and the Doctor uses his brain finally, and deduces that the 'telescope' is a werewolf killer, powered by moonlight and focused by the Koh-I-Noor diamond, carried everywhere by Queen Victoria. They escape to the room by the help of the women and the sacrifice of the Lord, where they use the 'telescope' to melt the werewolf, but not before it can scratch Queen Victoria. Thank God the royal family has no illnesses or... oh, haemophilia. So the Royal Family are werewolves. Huh. Queen Victoria makes the group Sir Doctor of TARDIS, and Dame Rose of the Powell Estate Turns out it's a decoy for banishing them; Queen Vic was disgusted by their amusement and admiring of the werewolf, and doesn't want them back. They go back to the TARDIS, not caring. After all, Queen Vic's words in 1879 can't mean anything in the modern day. Queen Victoria decides to set up the Torchwood institute to protect the British Empire, and to make the Doctor fear. This episode has a well-paced plot, with enjoyable moments and a nice solution. 9/10 Characters While the main characters don't have much development (it can't happen every episode), the secondary characters display emotions and plans of their own. Also, I just want to say, Prince Albert is awesome in this universe! 8/10 Scare Factor Some genuinely scary moments involving the werewolf, which were necessary because of the Gothic Horror setting, otherwise it wouldn't have felt as good. 7/10 Overall I really like this episode. It has a strong, enjoyable plot, the historical setting feels accurate and authentic, and the ending sets up future plot points. Not sure what else to say, so cue Next Time Trailer: nothing interesting, just some new aliens we've never met before in a school. Definitely nothing worth watching. Just as usual, if I've missed anything, post and tell me about it! |
So, just putting this out there. What do you hope happens in the 50th anniversary? Just remember, this is what's been confirmed:
The 10th and 11th Doctor, Rose and Clara are to star Kate Stewart (UNIT< The Power of Three>) is to feature The Zygons are to be the enemies. Would you keep these people (and aliens). Would you get in more companions. Would you use old footage of episodes to feature old Doctors (Shada again?) |
Finally hit up the Doctor Who Experience today (despite moving to Cardiff nearly a year or go I hadn't visited until now because I went while it was in London). I obviously chose the best time to go, because they have a fair bit of season 7 stuff there now.

I hated those Cherub Angels. Angels are bad enough, but making them creepy ass babies is just not playing fair.
