My opinion on the part where they ask the Meep it's pronoun is that it could have worked wonderfully with David Tennant's Doctor if they had made him ask if it was some weird alien pronouns instead of just asking if it uses our pronouns. It could have brought back some of the old sort of strange and unusual new alien terms that the earlier seasons were known for and could have added a bit of familiar comedy to this episode.

Neil Patrick Harris is the same age Michael gough was when he played the toy maker.

18:38 I think you miss the point here slightly, this "celestial god" as you say is limited by the rules of the game. that's his one binding principle, that he can't cheat. that makes him losing a game of catch where he isn't allowed to manipulate physics and so on a totally believable outcome. Addressing the bi-generation, The English teacher chiselled into the back of my skull would say that the juxtaposition of a typical regeneration where the emotions of the loss of a long-beloved character mix with the emotions of excitement for the character to come create an incredible moment. the phoenix rising from the ashes moment is very emotionally charged, without the loss element the moment just doesn't work. Finally addressing representation, I Myself am queer and though I am Cis I do have trans friends with whom I have discussed this latest series of specials. The general consensus is that the representation is very heavy-handed, this is especially a shame when you contrast this to the representation in RTD's earlier work on Dr Who which I thought while underwhelming and could be stepped up was still very natural. There are ways to do incredibly positive natural feeling representation, but this is not that, this somehow alienates all groups whether they are the subject of representation or not.

Very good video mate :) I'm not in the UK so I can't watch these episodes on the BBC iPlayer, do you know where else I could watch them? Good job again buddy!

Even though the there were some redeeming qualities, ultimately the general direction the show has taken just ain't it for me. It's not the same show anymore. Doubling down on the Timeless Child and the in your face politics aren't my jam. I enjoyed all of Who up to the end of Peter Capaldi's era, and I'm happy with what we got up to that point.

The Celestial Toymaker is great, but Harris has a beautiful singing voice, so why did RTD have him lip-sync a quarter-century-old pop tune?

Good overview

You’re totally right with everything you said mate. Good to hear people saying the truth instead of being scared to be cancelled ❤️ some good moments but overall disappointing, not leaving much hope for the new series

4:21 i think this was supposed to be more of a light-hearted joke not an attack on males

I’ll be honest mate, that background music is really jarring. I can’t listen to this anymore sorry

No it didn`t
