Episode 906: The Woman Who Lived

The Doctor runs into a very old friend.  Enemy?  Frenemy?

In the 17th Century, the Doctor crosses paths with a highwayman.  It’s Ashildr, who the Doctor made immortal 800 years earlier.  During that time, she has suffered so many loses that she has changed her name to Me to reflect her loneliness.

She wants to travel with the Doctor but when he says no, she falls back on her secondary plan.  One involving a lion-like alien and traveling through space portals that carry a terrible price.  The Doctor likes this plan even less.

Episode 905: The Girl Who Died

The Doctor and Clara have to teach Vikings how to fight.  And it’s not going well.

Join us as we discuss Episode 905: The Girl Who Died

Captured by Vikings, The Doctor claims he is Odin, King of the Gods.  This works until Odin actually appears in the sky and sends alien warriors to the surface who immediately start shooting.  They kidnap Clara and Ashildr, a girl from the village, and return to their spacecraft.  Before Clara can stop her, Ashildr declares war on Odin, who gives them 24 hours to prepare.

The Doctor knows the remaining villagers are no match for the aliens but after some convincing from Clara, he goes into action.  As the clock marches towards the deadline, villagers try to become fighters, and The Doctor comes to believe that Ashildr may be the key to victory.

Episode 904: Before The Flood

The Doctor is dead but it’s okay.  His ghost just keeps on talking.

Join us as we discuss episode 90: Before The Flood

The ghost of the Doctor is reciting the names of everyone both living and dead.   After Clara tells this to the Doctor in 1980, he is very upset to know his future.  He soon realizes that his ghost is listing the names in the order that they died, with Clara and rest of the crew’s names getting their turn.  No one knows what this means but it cannot be good.

As Clara and the crew process the fact that the Doctor is a ghost, back in 1980, the Doctor, O’Donnell and Bennett search the Scottish town before it’s flooded.  As they race to follow the events that led (leads) to disaster, The Doctor discovers there are larger issues going on than ghosts and death.
