2022-02-07 23:56:24 +0000 UTCProbably not regarded as one of the best episodes. I wasn't enamoured with it upon my first few watches. Although, like a number of Who episodes which clearly aren't defendable as examples of top tier Who. I still enjoyed plenty of things which are somewhat intrinsic to this era. Earlier in the evening I'd watched another narratively unimpressive episode from a different series. It's easy to see when you strip down or away script, performance, pace, whimsical tone and a fair for the exuberant flamboyance. These kinds of things more often lend to my enjoyment, when the basic architecture of story don't work as well.

2022-02-07 10:32:02 +0000 UTCI can’t lie I didn’t love this episode much either and I don’t think it’s widely popular at all. Honestly this reaction is the first time I’ve watched it since it was released lol so I totally understand Not liking it as much. Also you’re both so close to some of the best episodes ever (in my opinion) and I can’t wait to see what you think

2022-02-07 08:31:52 +0000 UTCSomeone correct me if I'm mistaken, but I think that this episode was supposed to be a test for a potential Vastra/Jenny/Strax spinoff series aimed for a slightly younger audience (like the Sarah Jane Adventures) which is why it feels a bit off

2022-02-06 23:41:15 +0000 UTCJust to add to one of them: 'When getting out of the TARDIS, Clara points out the Doctor's habit of not turning up where they want, to which the Doctor replied he once spent "A Hell of a long time trying to get a gobby Australian to Heathrow airport." This is a reference to the Fourth and Fifth Doctor's companion Tegan Jovanka.' .... the Doctor immediately follows this with 'Brave heart, Clara' when they hear a scream. The Fifth Doctor would often say to Tegan: 'Brave heart, Tegan'

2022-02-06 22:28:25 +0000 UTCSubtle touch by The Doctor going back to Victorian England to try to jog Clara’s memory. He still cannot figure out the Impossible Girl. I think if the Crimson Horror hadn’t turned up they would’ve gotten back in the TARDIS and headed for London instead of Yorkshire.

2022-02-06 21:52:08 +0000 UTC“The Crimson Horror” facts 🔵 Rachael Stirling, who plays Ada, the blind daughter of the villainous Mrs. Gillyflower, played by Diana Rigg, is also Rigg's daughter in real life. 🔵 "Thomas Thomas" gives directions like a GPS. Tom Tom is a manufacturer of GPS devices. 🔵 When getting out of the TARDIS, Clara points out the Doctor's habit of not turning up where they want, to which the Doctor replied he once spent "A Hell of a long time trying to get a gobby Australian to Heathrow airport." This is a reference to the Fourth and Fifth Doctor's companion Tegan Jovanka. 🔵 This is the 100th episode since the return of Doctor Who in 2005. 🔵 Sweetville is based on the real-world model village of Saltaire, Yorkshire, founded in 1851 by wool industrialist Titus Salt. Titus also had a daughter called Ada, after whom a street in the village is named. Sweetville's name may also reflect the model village of Bournville whose name was later used for a brand of sweet, a chocolate bar. 🔵 Matt Smith was delighted to see Vastra, Jenny and Strax return to the series, and based the Doctor's relationship with Strax on the interplay between Blackadder and Baldrick in Blackadder (1982) and its sequels. 🔵 Diana Rigg had never seen Doctor Who (1963). She was persuaded after viewing a showreel of classic villains from the series assembled by Michael Dennis, stage manager on The Recruiting Officer, a play she was appearing in at the time. 🔵 Mr Sweet was derived from "the repulsive story of the red leech", an untold adventure of Sherlock Holmes mentioned at the start of The Adventure Of The Golden Pince-Nez (1904). 🔵 When the Doctor and Jenny are about to be attacked by Mrs Gillyflower's pilgrims ('attack of the supermodels,' as the Doctor dubs them), Jenny reveals she's in a leather catsuit. In The Avengers (1961) - as Mrs. Peel - 'Diana Rigg' was famous for wearing the form-fitting outfits, in both leather (as Jenny is kitted out), or in PVC. Script development briefly saw Clara take over much of Jenny's role, including fighting the Pilgrims in a leather catsuit.
