The other truly great Attack of the Cybermen scene is the Doctor realizing mid-sentence the Time Lords sent him to save Earth from getting blown up by Halley's Comet and throwing a little fit about it.
Anyone else ever think about Ace getting her memories back and actually realizing what it means that Gallifrey is gone, that they lost the war, that her friends could very well be dead
#like she figures it out but it just doesn’t have the same impact when she doesn’t remember her life there or her friends#but through whatever shenanigans she gets her memories back and the information that she’s known for years at this point finally hits her#one of the few places she felt she belonged is destroyed#and even if not everyone died and there were/are efforts to rebuild there was still so much death#and she doesn’t even know if her friends made it out#gallifrey#j rambles#ace mcshane#doctor who

date idea: lay in a pitch dark room next to your crush, holding hands being the only physical contact point between you. you each have noise canceling headphones on and you're simultaneously listening to Rob Shearman's 2003 Big Finish masterpiece Scherzo. Wait where are you going

I wake up. I think about EDAs. I make breakfast (Vampire Science omelette) I drive to the grocery store. My phone bluetooth connects to the car and begins autoplaying where I left off on my 1000th Scherzo re-listen. I buy only plum pudding, jelly babies and a pack of cigarettes before speeding home to light some sandalwood incense and watch Night of the Doctor again (im getting withdrawls from not seeing paul mcgann for 2 hours) I open up discord and yap to the 5 other EDAs fans about the themes and subtext in Alien Bodies for 3 hours straight. I call my d*ctor and ask if they still do lobotomies. I am told "No" so I settle for going to my local barber shop and showing them a blurry picture of Sam Jones. I go home and smoke an entire pack of cigarettes while reading Travels With Fitz XII and begging Nuwho fans complaining in comment sections to read the EDAs. I go inside and fall asleep to the TVM. I wake up
Think when a lot of people say they want low budget Doctor Who what they really mean is low stakes. Midnight is seen as low budget, but it really wasn't, yet it is low stakes compared to what came before and after it. Wild Blue Yonder is another example of this. It wasn't a cheap episode to make, but the stakes are quite low, just the Doctor and Donna against two aliens on an empty ship, and it was considered the best of the 60th specials.

everyone always acts so aghast about the whole “the doctor kidnapped his first companions!” thing which yeah obviously terrifying from ian and barbara’s pov but you really gotta look at it from the angle of “guy who just ran away from home comes across someone breaking into his car and in a panic locks the doors hits the gas and now they’re all very very lost” and then it becomes hysterical

[image description: four screen caps from Doctor Who. The Ainley Master says “you will obey me”. Ofscreen, Peri Brown says, “no”. The master says, “I am the master.” The camera cuts to Peri, who says, “so what? I am Perpugilliam Brown and I can shout just as loud as you. End description]
I really do love early big finish, the audio quality isn’t great and the sound design isn’t much better, but it just has this certain charm to it
#I think it’s the fact that’s it’s made with a love for doctor who#and a want for it to keep going#it’s also just such an experience going back to the early Benny stuff after listening to one of the newest releases#there’s such a difference#they don’t have their standard sci-fi sound effect down yet#and idk if it’s just this audio but the walking sounds are so loud#that’s not even a complaint it’s kind of charming#doctor who#j rambles#big finish
