    26:54 the fourth face there, after Hartnell, is the face of Richard E.

Noone made formal complaints, but it was addressed, he apologised (at the time) and never did it again, in 15 years. However because of the Noel Clarke (mickey) allegations (actual serious legal complaints) someone, probably trying to divert from noel, posted an old video of him talking about johns behaviour. And it worked. People forgot about noel clark and immediately jumped on the anti john bandwagon. Heavily using his sexuality against him. Despite the fact it had been resolved for over a decade. But because of the media attention, he had to lose one or two doctor who jobs, (not because they fired him or anything, just because of temporary distancing because of the media attention). People now lying that he kept doing it for years when he never did. Noone ever complained. and again... it was resolved. Seriosu... but resolved. He shouldn't be out of a job his whole life.

      To help clarify, full name is Tarmacadam, but what we call tarmac is what the US would refer to as 'asphalt', I believe? (Which itself is an abbreviation, technically).

    I've had the feeling for a while that RTD is essentially repeating his first season with Christopher Ecclestone, though with Slitheen 2 parter skipped and one change in order.
    1. Domestic drama focusing on companion (Rose/Ruby Road)
    2. Camp space adventure (End of the World/Space Babies)
    3. Historical with dimension-hopping villain and famous side character (Unquiet Dead/Devil's Chord)
    4. Trapped in one location, companion fake-out death (Dalek/Boom)
    5. Doctor/Companion action leads to mess-up of time (Father's Day/73 Yards)
    6. Comment on modern media/communication (The Long Game/Dot and Bubble)
    7. Historical with 'rogue'ish character (Empty Child-Doctor Dances/Rogue)
    And we're heading to a two part finale portentially wrapping up hints about Bad Wolf....I mean Ruby....Susan Twist....Mrs Flood.....whatever...
    Oh, and the Doctor only falls in love with people whose name begins with 'R'.
    Rose, Reinette, River, Rogue...

    Richard E Grant was seen as one of the Doctor's faces in this episode. He was in "The Snowmen" in 2012 as the villain but he has actually played the Doctor twice, both being non canon until now. One was in a 2003 animated Story called Scream of the Shalka and the other was a parody written by Steven Moffat called "The Curse of Fatal Death". How exactly is this Doctor now canon? I am clueless. Scream of the Shalka can't be one of the pre-Hartnel Doctors because it featured the Master (who wasn't aware of any previous Doctors) and The Curse of Fatal Death would make Rowan Atkinson, Hugh Grant and more be canon Doctors which just adds a whole new level of wildness. So I have no clue, but I am happy because he is a great actor.

      Ok so - The Toymaker, (a being who is able to manipulate matter with thought and to whom time and space is nothing but an illusion, lest we forget), told us in the Giggle that he had made a jigsaw out of the Doctor's past. RTD has stated in many interviews that the purpose of this was to create wiggle room in whatever this show counts as canon (ie nothing, but some fans insist that it must have it, so here is the get-out clause). In doing this, he has pulled Richard E Grant's unofficial 9th Doctor into the main continuity.
      But it gets even better than that!
      Tales From The TARDIS introduced the Memory TARDIS. Dialogue presented within those short pieces states out right that multiple timelines now exist - most notably from the 7th Doctor, who says that in some of those he regenerates, in others he doesn't. RTD has stated that the effects of the Bi-generation reverberated throughout the Doctor's entire timeline, meaning that every past Doctor both regenerated and also stayed the same.
      But it gets even better than that!
      If Grants alternative 9th Doctor can be pulled in, so can other alternatives, including the "Unbound" Doctor's from Big Finish. But BEST OF ALL Rowan Atkinson is now an official incarnation of the Doctor, which I think is borderline joygasmic. But even more even more than that, in The Curse of the Fatal Death, Atkinson's Doctor is shown to regenerate multiple times. One of those times is Richard E Grant. So thanks to the Toymaker messing with the Doctors past, entwining multiverses and mashing it all together, AND the process of Bi-generation, Grant's Shalka Doctor is now not just a stand alone Doctor, but a continuation of his Curse of the Fatal Death incarnation.
      And people thought the Timeless Child retcon was confusing! I FECKING LOVE THE AUDACITY OF IT

    What makes Rogue so interesting for me is that it feels like story-wise it'll be incredibly difficult to bring him back without the next episode where they meet being about the flaws of a whirlwind romance.
    While I loved him in this episode and as a character, the most interesting story to continue it with is a re-meeting that doesn't hold up to what it should have been. But even if they do that I still want him to be around, regardless of whatever amount of romance, cause he was great.

    A thought that occurred to me was that if the bird people and Rogue were all sent to the same random, barren dimension together Rogue’s gonna have a rough time of it until the Doctor finds him. That experience could easily fuck a person up in a profound way, couldn’t it? That would be sad, but also make for a nice, juicy, dark script to entice the very busy Jonathan Groff back for another appearance. But I’m sure RTD has a plan. 😊

    So sad to see how many bigots and haters watch Doctor Who. What makes it worse are the ones that claim to be fans and love Doctor Who. How quickly they forgot that Jack Harkness kissed the 9th Doctor, the 11th Doctor talking about making out with guys and/or dancing with men. If Doctor Who offends you SO greatly maybe you should just stop watching, stop commenting and go away. The Whoniverse doesn't need "fans" like you.

    The song the Doctor & Rogue are dancing to is A Grace Jones song, Libertango (I've Seen That Face Before), which may be a clue to who Rogue really is.
    The other thing is the addition of Richard E Grant amongst the Doctor's faces. He played the Doctor in the animated Shalka adventure, before the 2005 reboot. RTD was none to kind, regarding that performance. He them showed up as the Great Intelligence in the Moffatt era. I don't believe they've added him in to canonize Shalka.

      That's pretty normal for RTD's writing in general. It's been said that RTD uses the TARDIS mainly just as transport to facilitate stories, while Moffat (and to a lesser extent Chibnall) treats it like a second home for the Doctor and companion(s). I will say I miss the more homely type of TARDIS we had with 12, and those quieter moments in the TARDIS.

    Jack and Rogue have completely different personalities and relationships with the Doctor. Rogue by Kate Heron's (co writer's) own words is "introverted". He's not flirty, he's actually quite standoffish and mostly just trying to get on with his job. The Doctor peals back his walls as the episode goes on and we find his vulnerable side and his geeky side and romantic heart. They are very different people.

    Am I the only one that got 1985 Prince or Morris Day vibes from The Doctor's look and vibe in this episode? I'm not in the LGBTQ community, but I absolutely Loved this episode. Very "classic" Doctor Who type episode but with modern adjustments. For all those who might complain about him enamored with a guy, did they have an issue with Rose? With the Woman in the Fireplace? The woman when the Doctor's psyche was kept in the pocket watch when he battled with The Family? How about that he has a Granddaughter dating all the way back to the First Doctor? If they didn't have issues with those women, then their issue is that it's a guy, and as we've seen The Doctor is non-binary and can regenerate into male, female, or something undefined. Rogue is like the Jack Harkness for this Doctor, at least in terms of "vibes," and I hope that he returns. Wouldn't mind seeing him as a Companion or perhaps The Companion for Ncuti's final season for example. Very interesting character. The "bad guys" are ok, but beyond this one episode I'm not sure if we need to see them again. But yeah, this episode is a 10/10 from me.

    The prevailing theory in the fandom (Potential spoilers? But it is just speculation) is that Rogue is ‘The One Who Waits’.

He then spends the next couple of centuries waiting, and presumably growing resentful that he was never rescued or even searched for…

    I really like Rogue. It’s nice to have a fun episode again after the two rather heavy ones previously. I know there are many times when we’ve seen one-off characters that said they’d return but it really feels like we’ll see Rogue again. And I really like the chemistry that Ncuti and Jonathan Groff have. It took me a rewatch to buy their romance. Whenever he’s fallen in love, it’s always been either with a companion or with a one-off character reluctantly. It's never so quick and so obvious. It took him forever to admit his feelings to Rose, River, and Yaz. That being said, I liked the chulders and that they just ended up maliciously playing. I love the _Caberet_ reference they make. I never believed for a second that Ruby was dead… again. At the rate she’s going, she’ll beat Rory’s record for deaths. And it was really funny in a really meta way to hear Kylie Minogue’s “Can’t Get You Out of My Head”. I almost wanted the Doctor to reference Astrid as a character directly.
