Okay so
first of all a massive sorry for not posting anything in quite a while, I've
been super busy preparing for school, trying to remember all the formulae,
grammar rules and physical laws (this is my last year of school by the way!)
and putting everything in its places and oh, this is just crazy!
Right, back
to the point, as you may have noticed in my previous post I casually mentioned
a thing called Doctor Who. This is a science-fiction television programme
created by the mighty BBC, and it’s all about time-travelling (yowzah!). If
you’re a fan of it, you already know what this post is going to be about, if
not, you should whether check it out first and come back to this post, or just
give up reading if you don’t care.
The long-awaited first episode of season 8 was aired yesterday on BBC One and in my opinion this is a great start of the new timey wimey epoch. The new Doctor himself, who's now played by Peter Capaldi (captain obvious yay) deserved my appreciation straight away. Having just regenerated and looking so serious, fierce and sophisticated, the poor Doctor doesn't know what on Gallifrey is happening to him, but as the episode goes on we begin to understand the forming personality of the 12th.
Surely the
Doctor never travels alone, and Clara Oswald happened to be the person who saw
him change, but at first she felt rather confused and even disappointed by the
new look (which was slightly selfish of her and super annoying for the fans).
Thank goodness throughout the episode she realises that it’s still him, though
the prospect of him becoming her boyfriend is gone for good.
Also that
telephone conversation bit honestly made me cry, I didn't expect to see Matt
Smith in this episode!
I think
that the funniest thing about Deep Breath was Strax, our precious potato man, whose
unintended jokes softened the seriousness and solemnity of the episode
And of course our
wonderful couple! Vastra and Jenny were a great part of the episode as well!
The whole
episode was an emotional hurl, but I personally enjoyed every minute of Deep
Breath and I'm pretty sure the next episodes are going to be just as good as
this one and maybe even better.
Sorry if I
couldn't highlight all the bits, I'm still feeling quite excited about the
whole thing and definitely would love to know your opinions about the episode
in the comments below.
Thanks for
reading,
