    UNIT must be ridiculously overfunded with how many people Kate offers highly-paid jobs to.
    I don't mind Ruby's mum being a nobody. I mind all the evidence to the contrary which now makes no sense.
    Of course, if they go the Star Wars route, next series will make her Davros' granddaughter.
    If Big Finish has any sense, they will start casting Susan Twist in random stories now.

    OK. Mrs Flood is the Monk.
    The Doctor mentions 1066, the year he first met the Monk. The Monk meddles in time, "I had such plans".
    Mrs Flood dresses as Clara and Romana, so he knows the Doctors history and enjoys playing around....or cosplaying around, a hint dropped in 'Rogue' with the cosplaying bird aliens. The Monk gets his name while cosplaying a monk in 1066, so he likes to dress for the occassion.
    And, of course, Gerald Flood was Kamelion's voice actor, so Mrs Flood is also Kamelion.

    It still would have been about family, but I feel like it would have offered a reason for their closeness.

    I think what has bothered me about this Doctor's stories isn't the 'woke' (which is a useless word), it's the 'woo'. Things happen more less arbitrarily for no reason (why the long scene just to get a spoon?), or because of fortune-cookie platitudes like 'Memory is a time machine' and 'she was Significant because we gave her significance'. This sort of stuff has been going on all season, but this episode suffered the worst damage because none of the story made a lick of sense. One constantly has to 'just go with it' or provide one's own rationalizations.

    Three points. 1. Sutekh died in his time corridor. He was never in the Vortex to grab on to the Tardis.
    2. Not interested in Ruby, the show is about the Doctor, not her. It's just Davies and his one trick pony idea for a season.
    3. Someone said Space Babies has 6 million views. Brilliant, how long did it take to reach that level? 8 weeks! That may well include people who've watched it several times. The fact is, the viewing figures are off the cliff edge, even from the specials last year. The public are having their say by switching off. It's not even gaining a million a week!

    I'm of the opinion that none of the events are real in season one. It's all a fabrication. Dreamscapes, created by some villain to make the Doctor and Ruby believe it's all happening for some nefarious reason. Maybe to find out who the Timeless Child is? The Unit tower is obviously not real, or if it is it must be star trek cloaked. The only thing real is the Doctor, Ruby and Mrs Flood. Therefore the Doctor needs to confront Mrs Flood, the very probable villain of the piece.

    The Tales of the TARDIS are basically just Classic Who stories bookended by scenes of companions talking, meant as intros to Classic Who. The only editing is to merge them into movies instead of individual episodes. Other than Pyramids of Mars, they're mostly full length. And UK exclusive cause Classic Who is a streaming licence nightmare abroad. You're not missing much.

    To answer your question I do love "The Celestial Toymaker" one of the best stories of the Hartnell era unfortunately the animation was absolute crap and looks absolutely nothing like the original episodes and there was too much tinkering in the original audio just to sort modern sensibilities which is just plain ridiculous.
    I'm not the biggest fan of "Tales of the TARDIS" as much as it was nice to see the old Doctors and the old companions again I'm very highly against the re-edited versions of the Classic series it should be left alone and I wish they would stop tinkering with the old effects I like the old effects better as they are I don't even like the remastered versions of the CGI original enterprise from "Star Trek: The Original Series" I prefer the original model and I don't like the remastered version of the "Star Wars Trilogy" I think it's been tinkered with too much it's like vandalism on artwork to me I do not like it at all infact I hate it.

    The whole thing with Ruby's backstory was just so lazily written and a big cop-out for 7 weeks there was all this big build up because people thought she might be an adopted alien or her mother was someone from the Doctor's past possibly a Time Lord which would had been interesting but no RTD couldn't help himself and took the soap opera route and she just turns out to be an ordinary girl with an ordinary mother who abandoned her when she was 15 wow Russell has forgotten how to write science fiction.
    The CGI Sutekh dog was terrible there's absolutely no reason they couldn't had used a real actor as Sutekh in his original costume and mask and it still would had been just as effective and the way he was defeated again lazily written one of the most powerful gods well he's actually an alien the last of the osirens and he gets defeated by a rope that was the mostly dumb.
