As ever, incoherence ahead!
Awww, Victorian christmas. Ooh, that reminds me, I want to watch Little Women. Well, I always want to watch Little Women (CHRISTIAN BALE! GABRIEL BYRNE!), but especially at Christmas.
WAISTCOAT!!! DAVID MORRISSEY IN A WAISTCOAT BEING POSH WITH A NORTHERN TWANG!!!
OH I DO SO LOVE THEM
.... I have a feeling this could get somewhat flaily. TWO DAVIDS IN THE CREDITS!
I like the bronze-y Cybermen. Hairy WTF? It looks like something the Boosh invented! TIMOROUS BEASTIE!!!
LOLing so hard at them skidding about on their bums
HUGGING FOR NO REASON, I LOVE IT
Hee, I kind of love Rosita, she is mouthy and fabulous
"You're gabbling, sir."
Oooh, why doesn't he know who he is?
So apparently ALL timelords are emo.
"What was I like? In the past?" Ohh, his eyes were all big.
DON'T BLINK!
Hee, Dervla Kirwan being all fierce and evil and Victorian.
Let's just take a moment to love all over D.Moz's quiff, shall we?
"Is that your sonic screwdriver?" DAVID TENNANT, STOP MAKING SAUCY FACES, IT IS MOST DISTRACTING. I mean, don't, but think of the children!
OKAY, GUYS, YOU ARE REALLY GOING TO HAVE TO STOP STANDING SO CLOSE TOGETHER AND TALKING IN LOW, BREATHY VOICES IF YOU DON'T WANT ME TO HAVE ALL SORTS OF DIRTY THOUGHTS ON BABY JESUS' BIRTHDAY.
Hee, pocketwatch!fakeout!
That compressed information thing really reminds me of the intercept from Chuck. CAN WE GET ADAM BALDWIN IN HERE? CAN THAT BE DONE?
AND NOW WITH THE ANGUISHED FACE!TOUCHING, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
Cutlass shenanigans = funtimes
Heee, Miss Hartigan is a scarlet harlot, and it is fabuloso
Oooh, Cybermen look lovely in the snow
That aerial shot is fucking gorgeous. Yay for artistic corpses!
Look at you, Dervla Kirwan, with your fierce lipstick.
THE TARDIS IS A HOT AIR BALLOON, FUCKING YES YES YES
(ALSO, TENNANT!EAR TUGGING, HOMG)
Oooh, this is starting to get a bit shady, innit? Why does he have so much money?
Awww, he's not really the Doctor. Sad times :( That was a lovely emo beauty shot of The Tennant, though, wasn't it?
Ohhh, this backstory is really very sad. Did he invent Cybermen or something?
Tennant's hair is sticking waaaay up, 'tis magnificent
Ohhh, Mercy Hartigan. Too fierce for this world apparently. I SHALL MOURN YOU AND YOUR DRESS, DERVLA KIRWAN. Although, a natty new crown and black contacts = fair trade for a brain, y/n?
That massive engine thing looks fabulous. What can you people tell me about this thing they call 'steampunk'?
Can I just say, I love it when the baddies just want to LEARN STUFF; it's so hardcore. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER, CHILDREN.
Hee, Dervla Kirwan is a new, more epic Cyberperson! WIN! Logic and strength and passion! And fury, which is less win, but whatever! SO EFFING FIERCE.
Ohhhh, his son is there! Ohhh, D.Moz and his tears of joy! And the kid is called Frederick! And the Doctor rescued him!
GIANT THAMES CYBERTHING!!!! EPIC!!!
OH FUCK YEAH WITH THE GIANT ROBOT STOMPING ALL OVER THE PLACE
Ohhh, the Doctor and his family emo! I LOVE BOTH OF THE DAVIDS SO VERY HARD
YAY BALLOON!TARDIS!!!
"His name, sir, is the Doctor." I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS
THE MUSIC IS SO EPIC AND THERE IS A BALLOON AND TENNANT'S HAIR HAS GONE BONKERS. YAY CHRISTMAS SPECIAL!
"...Yet another man come to assert himself against me in the night." I REALLY KIND OF ADORE MISS HARTIGAN AND HER HARDCORE WAYS.
David Morrissey, you make me squee a lot when you squeak in delight at how much you have learnt!
"BRAVO! BRAVO!" ♥ ♥ ♥
I AGREE, ROSITA IS MARVELLOUS
Come onnn, Doctor, stay for Christmas dinner!
"Complete and utter wonderful nonsense!" YES I AGREE, I LOVE IT ALSO.
"They break my heart." OH GOD OH GOD, IT HURTS BUT IT IS LOVELY. Poor Doctor, it is hard being a time-travelling slut ♥
THAT WAS A REALLY LOVELY CHRISTMAS SPECIAL, GUYS.
Oooh, "Planet of the Dead"! EXCITING.

my heart, all over the floor.

Date: 2008-12-26 08:06 am (UTC)So...I liked this episode. Interesting reversal on the memory replacement idea, plus David Morrissey really was very endearing. I'm sure something could be made out of the fact that a powerful woman was still contained under the title of 'Cyber King' and in a giant iron man (OH NOES THE SUPRESSIVE PATRIACHY) but...I ain't gonna. ;)

Date: 2008-12-27 10:36 am (UTC)I wasn't sure what it was either, but I'd heard it mentioned in connection to the 'Golden Compass' film, and 'The Prestige', so decided it merited further investigation. Here's a nice site I came across that explains things : http://brassgoggles.co.uk/brassgoggles/brief-steampunk-faq
