September 13th, 2014 - 8:42pmand I hated it but I did like the whole timelord barn thing the rest of the episode seemed a bit rushed
the astronaut of death
September 13th, 2014 - 8:42pmI have a question ?
so was the doctor a orphan?
Doctor 13th
September 13th, 2014 - 8:42pmNot a lot actually happened but with a couple of questions, it was good. 7/10. But, how did they get to Gallifrey? What did the Doctor find outside? And who was under the bed? Me thinks a child to that one as it look human when he (it?) removed the duvet.

September 13th, 2014 - 8:42pmif we assume he was the actual 1st Doctor then yes
The Figure Adventurer
September 13th, 2014 - 8:41pmWell, did you think it was a scary episode?
the astronaut of death
September 13th, 2014 - 8:41pmyes probably

September 13th, 2014 - 8:41pmWould you say that the Child who was the Doctor in barn was the younger version of William Hartnell’s First Doctor?

September 13th, 2014 - 8:41pmBrilliant ep. But what was under the red sheets?
The Temporal Jelly Baby
September 13th, 2014 - 8:40pmThat is just one plothole which isn’t actually a plothole – you’re supposed to decide for yourself! It’s either fear, or as the Doctor mentioned, some sort of species which is very good at hiding!
the astronaut of death
September 13th, 2014 - 8:40pmthat’s not a plot hole
that’s just good writing
The Figure Adventurer
September 13th, 2014 - 8:38pmPlotholes: Who was on the other side of the door? What was Awesome so afraid of? What was under the covers?
The Temporal Jelly Baby
September 13th, 2014 - 8:38pmBut why? I really liked it. This appears to be an episode that you can only really like or hate.
The TARDIS
September 13th, 2014 - 8:37pmOkay… I really enjoyed it, but I don’t like fiddling around with the Doctor’s past. Occasionally, it’s great, but it’s happened a lot recently. It was pulled off well and worked well in the episode, but I just kind of wish that Moffat would stop adding little bits into the Doctor’s life. It’s a personal preference, I’m sure lots of people love the additions to a Who history. In fact, I’d count myself among them if it wasn’t a frequent occurrence.
As for the rest of the episode, I admit I was disappointed by the scares we were promised, but I really enjoyed it as a whole.
9/10 for me, but I’m not letting “that scene” alter my verdict

September 13th, 2014 - 8:36pmThis has to be the worst episode I have seen on doctor who since I started watching it

September 13th, 2014 - 8:35pmbrilliant, brilliant episode, i loved it
IntoDarkness
September 13th, 2014 - 8:35pmI can see where you are coming from because some parts were a little hard to understand.
The Temporal Jelly Baby
September 13th, 2014 - 8:34pmThere was an actual plot, and what plotholes are you referring to?
TheExtremeBlueTARDIS
September 13th, 2014 - 8:33pm10/10, best of the series so far. Although I feel it had to be a bit scarier, and less focussed on Danny and Clara. And I thought the child in the barn was Danny, I was like WHAAT? xD Thank goodness that got explained now.
The Figure Adventurer
September 13th, 2014 - 8:32pmI mean… it was just bad. Didn’t make sense! Plotholes… in fact an actual PLOT would have been nice.
IntoDarkness
September 13th, 2014 - 8:32pmA poll to see what we think might have been behind the door.
Gallifrey Will Rise Again
September 13th, 2014 - 8:31pmJust awesome. I’m continuing to love the chemistry between peter capaldi and jenna. I loved the twist at the end with clara under the doctor’s bed in the barn on gallifrey, it was a rare although brief insight into the doctor’s childhood . I swear something monumental is coming this series, i don’t know what, but i can just sense it.

September 13th, 2014 - 8:31pmLoved it! Simply one of the best!
IntoDarkness
September 13th, 2014 - 8:31pmTo be honest a small part of me doesn’t know .

September 13th, 2014 - 8:30pmThat is what was implied.
The Figure Adventurer
September 13th, 2014 - 8:30pmCould someone explain to me what Listen was?
The Burgundy scarf doctor
September 13th, 2014 - 8:30pmDoes this episode count as a multi doctor story?
