I rat eit 9.6/10 .
Moffat know how to twist a plot.
Opening souls trapped in cyberspace but for what reason?
Enter the Doctor in 1207 cumbria.
The Bells of Saint John? The telephone in his Police Box.
How did she get that number?
All right, the plot is to capture Clara Oswald's soul in the
Cloud. But who is controlling the Cloud?
The Doctor does rescue Clara the first time.
All right cause a plane to crash instead of using a riot? Hmm!!
Plane is restore and the wi-fi is still worldwide.
Motocycle and dopplegangers. Who said Moffat was not a
genius.
Doppleganger to close down Cloud.
Finally the client, namely the Great Intelligence is revealed.
The 4th Attempt to take over and is foiled.
And yet again he uses a child to carry out his work.
All right Clara what do you have in store for us?

I wonder if the woman will turn out to be significant before the end of
this season's story arc. Not many people can know what the TARDIS's
phone number is, so I wonder if she will turn out to be River Song.

It was great fun so long as you were willing to suspend your disbelief
over the plot, which I was. I especially enjoyed the "mobile phone" gag.

Doctor Who, the horror set up is very good. I thought having the ability
to hack a soul (after the "new software application" was installed) was
excellent horr. Then, they don't do much with it. The room of computer
hackers (all wearing suits?) seemed mostly unnecessary. What was the
purpose those particular souls on the wall of souls, as opposed to all
the ones who weren't shown? I assume those weren't all eaten. As this
was a world-wide epidemic, where were the epidemiologists?

"There is also a final episode whose title has not officially been
announced. However, in a Q & A that took place at Trinity College in
Dublin, Steven Moffet confirmed it will involve Alex Kingston, who
plays River Song, and it will also bring in the much anticipated
mystery of Trenzalore, “Yes. She will certainly be in this series…Is
there more to come about, as it were, Trenzalore and the battle in The
Doctor’s future that led to the attempts on his life in the past? Is
that what you’re asking? Yes.” "

I am dissappointed that they both weren't on Supernatural, as I am sure there would have been some small reference joke worked in somehow.

Great concepts, flaccid execution. Right now, I am not exactly sure which
show I am watching, since it feels like a mish-mash of Friends, Willy Wonka,
and stock hack-written dramedy. I am starting to see why some people think
that Matt Smith may be worried about getting typecast by playing the lead
role in Doctor Who. My heart sank as soon as I saw Clara being
un-downloaded. I just knew that everyone in the world who went missing
would end up being put back the way that they were by the end of the

accidents happen over time and given that the lady in charge had been
under the Great Intelligence's control since she was a child it is
obvious that this had been going on for decades. Which makes you
wonder what did it do before there was Wi-Fi and why didn't the Doctor
pick up on this at some point in the past? I guess these are the sorts
of questions we aren't supposed to ask.

So does this count as Clara's third resurrection? Fourth?

Seriously ... ? I must have missed that part. I was under the

downloaded, and those who were dead for too long could not be

In the classic series, there were Katarina, Sara Kingdom, Adric, Kamelion
(the android that you are probably thinking of), and Peri. Nyssa did not
die in the show, but it was implied that she might later develop cancer, as
a result of her radiation treatment, in her leaving story. Peri's death,
which occurred about half way through a season, was later reported to be a
hoax, at the end of the season. That was done because Doctor Who had
received a lot criticism for having too much violence and death, and the
producers were worried, since the show had just come off of an eighteen
month hiatus (from 1985 to 1986), that the show would be cancelled if they
did not do that. Still, it set a terrible precedent
>I do remember a companion being in jeopardy most weeks.
Yes, and that was because, most of the time, there was a sense that the
companion could be seriously injured, or even die, permanently. Apart from
the Time Lords, who could regenerate, most of the major characters did not
appear to 'die', only to miraculously un-die, like they do now, in the
show, almost regularly.

That would explain why they explicitly say that only the tiny fraction
of people whose bodies hadn't died yet would survive.
Honestly seems pretty dark and well out-of-line with anything not
written by Eric Saward to just have the Doctor glibly decide by fiat
for all of those people that death is better for all of them than
continuing to live in the cloud (I don't know if I'd agree if it were
me personally in the cloud. Probably. But I know for DAMNED sure that
I wouldn't want some random alien unilaterally making the decision for
me). But I assume they're doing that damned "Without his pet humans,
the Doctor goes off the deep end and becomes dark and scary" yet again.

just unilaterally make the decision for all those people that they're

I see it similar to whether you should keep an apparently brain dead person on a

you should destroy a country's economy to overthrow a dictator, or a number of
situations where one person has to decide which way to screw others is best for
them. Since that wasn't the focus of this episode, they did include a quick line
that alludes to the moral complexity without exploring it.

I have trouble accepting that whatever energy was trapped in the cloud
was alive, in order to reject The Doctor's solution. The cloud was, in
fact, the alien's larder. In no way could The Doctor leave them in place.
The script referred to "souls", so we were supposed to accept that this
was a horrid and unnatural afterlife for the ones who couldn't be
resurrected. By removing every soul from the larder, the viewer is to
assume that the souls moved into a natural afterlife condition, whatever
that was. I assume this is knowledge The Doctor lacks, what is supposed
to happen to the soul after death.
In previous series, it was too strongly suggested that The Doctor was
Jesus Christ. If I had a choice, I'd like my Doctor Who stories to be
free of religion, at least from the human perspective.

Except you can't walk up to the wall of screens and ASK an apparently
brain-dead person how they feel about it.
If the Doctor had sent his robot avatar into the next room and had him
say to the wall, "I'm sorry, I can't save you; you're all dead. But I
can end your imprisonment by shutting all this down," and they all
said that was good enough, then there's no problem. But they didn't do
that; they just had the Doctor make the decision for them.

Jones' cousin, in series two of the revival. Since the beginning, of the
original series, Doctor Who has always been ambivalent, about whether the
lead character is a hero, or an anti-hero.

I guess you can get away with just so many people in the prime of life
suddenly going comatose before some pesky family members start to
complain and some annoying doctors start to ask questions.

That is kind of how Moffat's 'Silence in the Library' / 'Forest of the Dead'
story ended, for the characters who could not be restored. Of course, the
virtual reality in the Library seemed to be designed specifically for that

It is actually only a friggin' forty-five minute long show ... but it is it
really too much to ask that they actually explore some of the moral
complexities, rather than just vaguely alluding to them, fleetingly? If it
is too much to ask to have them do this on the televised episodes, then I
wish that they would make novelisations/tie-ins that expand upon the
televised episodes, like some, (but clearly not all), of the novelisations
of the original/classic series did.
