I've been waiting to see Deepa's reaction to this episode since Season 10 started, looking forward to what her reaction is gonna be for the rest of the season, I'm hyped as hell, this was an amazing episode for me and Matt Lucas especially was hilarious this episode
Alright, these reactions have completely changed my mind about the fake regeneration. I now no longer wish that it never happened. Otherwise Deepa WOULDN'T HAVE HAD THE CRAZIEST PREDICTION EVER LIKE WHAT ON EARTH-
So, I didn't quite get the ending of this episode until someone explained it to me: Bill said earlier in this Season that she doesn't remember her mother that well beyond the picture she has of her. So, while the love she did have of her mom was real, Bill stops the Monks by using fake memories of her mom. Also, the Monk multi-parter is 1 of the strangest in Modern Who, but what makes it work is Capaldi's Doctor as a character & his relationships with Bill, Nardole, & Missy.
I totally agree that the ending felt a little rushed. However, I do understand why the monks gave up so quickly. The Doctor explains that they have only given an impression of being many to present power. In reality, there are only a few monks. Once the spell of consent is broken, they know that they do not constitute a strong enough force to take power back via any other means.
The scene where Bill confronts the Doctor and shoots him is so beautifully sad. The music is amazing, I need the series 10 soundtrack just for the music that plays in that scene alone! I also agree The Lie of the Land is not the weakest in the Monk Trilogy, I personally find it to be the best and struggle to understand the hate this episode gets compared to the previous two entries in the trilogy. Love the posh accents you two had at the end too! Your friendship is so wholesome and both of your energies are infectious!
“And Missy’s gonna come.”
“I beg your pardon?”
HELP I CAN’T BREATHE 😂
"And Missy's gonna come"
"I beg pardon"
Died! 😭😂😂😂😂😂

I love how every video starts with the both of you laughing
I am so so excited to see deepas reaction to this! Been waiting. One of my favourite episodes of the seasom
The snorting you guys 😂😂 So funny
We can assume Bill new that it would trigger regen rather than kill him. For mine, it makes sense. Things are desperate, roll the dice on a new Doc.
Just like with 'The Stolen Earth' for 10, imagine if 12's plan did get blown and he ended up regenerating into 13 here
you two make me laugh so much

Yeah they seem like scientists of some sort to me. They’re gonna do what they do but they’re not in it for a war.
When you tell your 8 year old niece these two people are really funny and get that opening.

George Orwell. Well spotted Deepa.
Was not expecting Luke to say that at the beginning! 😂
Awwwwwwwk-werrrrrrrd.
Pleeease noooo I can't wait another 3 weeks for the next Deepa Doctor Who reaction!😅😭🥲
Not a big deal, not even a small deal really, but no edited thumbnail threw me off a moment!! Maybe I'm living in the Monks world!! 😆
