Notes

The Twin Dilemma (9.29.19)
so its Sixey's first ep. I know apparently a lot of people don't like this one?? Like Council of Geeks made an offhand remark about how this ep was widely regarded as the stupidest thing Classic Who did. Also i know a lot of people don't like 6?? So idk i'll just have to see
oh so its just Fivey's title sequence w Colin's face.
OOH THERES A WOOSHY NOISE
Wait this is still season 21??? why. ok.
Classic who season divisions are w e i r d
they're just pRANCING AROUND THE CONSOLE ROOM W H Y
PERI: It's terrible.
DOCTOR: Oh, never mind about the clothes, they're easily changed.
doctor PLEASE tell me you aren't going to think /THE COAT/ is better than fiveys jacket
PERI: Well, neither do I. I mean, people don't change like that. I mean, physically, just in a flash.
DOCTOR: I'm not people, Peri. I happen to be me.
a tiny bit d o c t o r n y a r l a t h o t e p
i'm sorry we're like 2 mins in and their just RIDICULOUS
there's something about the hUFF after pulling out the mirror i just ADORE
Colin your ridiculous
idk why i need a screencap of Sixey staring at the mirror I Just do
I like that Peri already hates them
Baby you okay
yh doctor you aren't okay
you need a zero room.
oh wait you rIPPED IT OUT AND TURNED IT INTO A CABINET i'm sure it was a brilliant idea at the time but dID YOU THINK YOU'D NEVER REGENERATE AGAIN
wAIT THE TRANSCRIPT SAYS THAT'S TWO'S COAT THEY'RE HOLDING RIGHT THERE
(*knows the Two Doctors is in like 2 eps* is that fORESHADOWING)
*Castellan voice* no not the ugly coat
aw the cat pin
PERI: You look dreadful.
At least someone calls them out on it
Doctor you're a dick
Doctor you're being creepy
oh is this when he strangles her
"Alien spy" oh deff
doctor you are NOT okay
oh you aren't okay again
I was about to say earlier they're kind of a danger to others right now and should go somewhere safe? Please do that?
the thing about being a hermit reminds me of Hermits United from Utopia
Six are you okay
Like i know you aren't okay but are you okay
I know Peri still travels with the Doctor after this and honestly good on her i would have bolted
I NEED A SCREENCAP OF SIX JUST RAISING THEIR EYEBROW WHEN THEY'RE THREATENED W A GUN
Jaconda's new... /Master/
Nah they wouldn't bring the rat man back this soon. This isn't Season 8!
"Brave heart Tegan" AWWW
Excelsior. o;h, 'm n,ot crying.
This is like the third time the doc's said "discretion is the better part of valor" i literally never heard that phrase b4 Classic Who
SIX WHAT IN HELL ARE YOU DOING
oh PERI i know i said it earlier but i have 1000x more respect for her for putting up with this asshole
kINDLY REFRAIN FROM ADDRESSING ME AS DOC yEEEE
wHAT IN HELL THE DUDES A TIME LORD
w h a t
is the doctor EVER going to stop running into people they used to get drunk with
ok its weird that Peri has to explain compassion to the Doctor but also i mean she's been INCREDIBLY forgiving
And ye at least six REALIZES they're being a dick
sNAPPING to tell Peri to open the doors and then SIGHING as they SAUNTER out of the TARDIS
They're such a drama queen i hate them
"I no longer even have any clothes sense" DOCTOR YOU NEVER DID
the DAK-TER
again, for like the 4th time now, good on Peri for sticking with this asshat
OTHERING HELL i was just about to say "hey Doctor don't kill him" as a joke but WHAT THE HELL DUDE
ok they apologized
Does colin just quirk his brow after every cliffhanger bc if so YES
is Six actually a cat
Doctor your telepathy kinda SUCKS i doubt you'd be able to take on mister slug dude
Meanwhile on doctor who, telepathic slugmen want to take over the universe
DOCTOR: You seem to forget, Peri, I'm not only from another culture but another planet. I am, in your terms, an alien. I am therefore bound to different values and customs.
oh i've seen this clip before. I remember thinking that 6 was just a degree of separation away from shouting at the viewer
DOCTOR: And I would suggest, Peri, that you wait a little before criticising my new persona. You may well find it isn't quite as disagreeable as you think.
HEY YOU IDIOTS DONT STOP WATCHING THE SHOW IM NOT THAT MEAN
DOCTOR: Whatever else happens, I am the Doctor, whether you like it or not.
I swear their gaze is. An inch away from the camera.
