I love this episode to death. Not the strongest plot, but lovely characterisation, and I adore Bill’s 'chips' monologue in the cold open. The Doctor being a uni teacher seems right, Nardol’s character has settled down, and the continuing use of my favourite TARDIS interior ever.
I agree with your assessment, I liked Clara, but Bill feels like a breath of fresh air. Doctor Who thrives on evolving and changing up it's lineup every now and then.
I love how it plays a bit of Clara’s theme when she asked how would you feel if someone wiped your mind. And he knows something’s missing but not what. I do like how fresh Bill is. And I also liked how Bill is never going to have a flirty relationship with him. A friend is good. A friend is needed.
All the folks who stopped watching the show during Capaldi's first 2 seasons will never know what they were missing out on. After Clara's storyline with 12 (which, no offence, I just didn't care about. I think her completing the Impossible Girl arc by jumping into 11's time stream should have been the perfect ending for her), this series was a definite return to form for the show.
Been waiting for this for soo longgggg :D really glad that Deepa enjoyed the episode. Bill will always be one of my favourite companions. Can't wait to see what Deepa thinks of the rest of her adventures
Deepa says heather is creepy. I've never really thought that myself. Then Luke points out that Bill doesn't think anything of it cause she fancies her.. Yep, I'm busted, big lesbian here
Fantastic reaction as always! I'm so excited that you're into series 10. Part of the freshness is the fact that Bill is the first new real companion for 12. Another part is Bill - I love her and she's different than Amy or Clara. This TARDIS team has some real chemistry.
Surprised you guys cut out all the nods to River and Susan, essentially his only family. He clearly is yearning for something like family in this one, it's probably the most Susan-reference heavy since The Five Doctors. Something about Bill definitely reminds him of his wife's and granddaughter's curiosity or adventurousness.
You two are the best reactions together. I would love to see you two react to another show one day and when she said imagine how it feels if someone did this to you. I thought about Clara there.
There's like an image of a Dalek on the screen for about three seconds in one of the episodes, so that's not quite "it" for the Daleks in series 10 if we want to get pedantic about it... which I do!
I'Ve said it before and I'll say it again. They would be much better Reactions if you watch the Episode instead of Constantly looking at each other when you talk.
You can probably say it again and all you like. I’m guessing they don’t really care. They are 2 best mates watching Doctor Who on camera for an average of 3K views per video, and under 10K subscribers. They’re not exactly doing it for the money. You can tell in their dynamic they’re watching doctor who because they want to, and they’ll do it how they like cos they’re not getting paid. There’s more than plenty of reaction channels who take doctor who reactions seriously. You can go watch them, but I for one come and stay for the best friends dynamic.
@@frogcoin6392 To be honest I don't really care either. They can talk as much as they like, I don't have a Problem with that. The problem I have is you can't say you are Reacting to something IF YOU ARE NOT WATCHING IT!!
Deepa’s Etsy:

Of the over 2 dozen Modern Who Era Companions, Bill won me over in just 1 Season to be a Top 5 Modern Era Companion of The Doctor.
This episode still feels so fresh to me. Hard to believe it’s 7 years old
7 years old?! Oh my god 😂😂
some of those were covid years and they don't count actually imho
@17:13 “Imagine how it’d feel if someone did this to you”
Cue Clara’s Theme and my tears.
That look of displeasure when Deepa hears a Dalek never gets old.
I was SO excited
Series 10 remains one of the absolute BEST, this is gonna be such good fun!
After series 4, this is my absolute favourite series of new who... peak Capaldi in my opinion, and Bill is an amazing, under-rated companion!

Same
Same. Five minutes in, and I knew.

"I love watching this show with you". And we love watching it with Both of you Luke lol.
9:26 I love it when Deepa’s eyes go all golf ball-y 😂😂
Literally just caught up on these I always forget that I put loads of them in my watch later and forget there there then like binge them all in one
Bill's up there with Jack, Donna & Martha as my favourite companions

Absolutely my favourite season. Can’t wait for the next reaction you guys seemed to enjoy this one. Nice to see! ❤
Deepa's look to the side when Heather was taken by the puddle!!! 😆

Luke , you might notice that Moira from this episode is the same actress from Gridlock as Brannigan, the cat man’s wife.
Omg, how have I never realised that!? 😱
YES, what a fun fact! And she was in Wizards Vs Aliens too!

You guys have are everything 🩷
Deepa keeps talking about robot people, Luke doesn't explain that the Daleks are fighting the Movellans, who actually are robot people. =)
13:51 That singing was quite possibly the scariest thing I've ever heard :)
Daleks don't chill they kill.
I get the chest cracking but that's because I'm hypermobile and the parts that connect the bones are loose and stretchy, so things move. It's freaky.
You two are the best reactions together. I would love to see you two react to another show one day and when she said imagine how it feels if someone did this to you. I thought about Clara there.
Are you and deepa going to watch torchwood, I sort of need to see her traumatized
It’s the eventual plan - but also no promises!

Not too late to delete this comment
its their interactions that make their channel special.
Go watch a different channel rather than leaving a rude comment, we all love Luke and Deepas friendship and interactions it’s what makes the reactions
