Reply To: The Official Doctor Who Thread: Born To Save The Universe

@RumplesGirls you capture my thoughts perfectly.

I agree the aliens were unimportant although I did find the fire Lion appreacance to be very appealing but his whole I am just here to invade the world thing lackluster. It would have been more poignant if he was using the lives of this world in desperate attempt to bring his pride back to life. Because a lion needs its pride. However it wasn’t bout the Loin. It was about “Me” (hahha that was fun) aka Ashildr. Ashildr realize despite all she still cared about the people.

I never watched Game of Thrones but this Maisie is phenomenal actress I cared about Ashlidr and I would love to see her again.

That flashback with her babies struck me because I didn’t think she would have children. And then to lost them how tragic. She lived the ultimate heartache and lost, to outlive your children is one of the worse fate. It showed the audience why she became “Me.” Me against the world.

Also I love that they gave the chip to someone unplanned and unexpected.(Although I had flicker of a notion that he might be the one.)

The jokes at the hanging was just priceless. Overall this episode was solid and probably be one of my faves! LOVED IT.
