    This is not only my favourite special but one of my fave episodes. I love it. It wraps up S8 perfectly and shows that the Clara doctor dynamic is at a turning point - the last moments are perfect. No more lies. Just 100% trust.

    I think the 'forgive Dave' note is there just to make thepoint that subconcoiusly she sort of remembers some of what went on, and it fits with the overall theme of second chances.

    "Doctor, am I young?"
    "No idea."
    That made me chuckle and sad at same time. He see nothing different when Clara getting old, he still see her as usual.

      Or Dave is an ex-boyfriend who did something wrong, and what with Christmas being a time of forgiveness, maybe she felt it was time to do so.

    This is one of my favourite christmas specials, just because of how Christmas was utilized within the framework of the story. It wasn't just 'Alien Invasion, but it's Christmas' the Christmas aspects were tied in very well to the script as a whole.

    “every christmas is last christmas”
    a really beautiful message and a lovely christmas special. the twelfth doctor’s characterisation here is perfect and it serves as a brilliant epilogue to S8. the doctor so excited while flying the sleigh is adorable, i love seeing him mellow out!
    plus, that ending is just perfect. the music, the acting, it’s beautifully done.
    question: will you be watching the prologue to S9, the one set on karn? probably not long enough for a reaction, but it’s way too good for megan to miss out!

  • @Imabassplayer2
    @Imabassplayer2 4 года назад +4

    I really enjoy this episode. It goes in a different direction to the other Christmas specials. They went for a scary story with a twist of Christmas. Usually the Xmas special is a light episode that either wouldn't make it into a series or considered filler. This one actually could be an episode in the series if you tweaked the story a bit. The Santa was a great touch, something we all believe in at one point and then we learn the truth. The episode needed something you could doubt but also could be real after all. Nothing says that more then Santa. Also a big warning that your still dreaming and its all fake. When Santa tells then things they wanted as a kid it does make you thing he could be real. But then you realise that Santa is in their heads. I might be over thinking this but it does have a great story and some depth to it.

    I struggled with series 8 with the rocky/uncomfortable relationships between the three main characters, but for me this Christmas special was the perfect reboot- saying goodbye to Danny, clearing away the (white) lies at the end of the series finale, and the Doctor and Clara excitedly enjoying being together again. The perfect set up for Series 9, for me absolutely the best series since Series 4.

  • @ojwh1933

    I wouldn't say this is generally considered highly by 'Doctor Who' fans.
    Most of the opinions I've seen range from dislike to "meh".
    I love it, and think it's easily one of the best Twelfth Doctor stories; definitely one of the few that handles Clara very well as a character. I'm aware I'm in the minority with that opinion though.

    I’m pretty certain another moment where it’s hinted they were intending to make Shona the next companion is when she calls him ‘the magician’ halfway through the episode, linking in with the first episode of S9, ‘The Magician’s Apprentice’. Because think about it, it’s a completely random title given what happens in the episode. It’s a shame because I wish that’s the direction they went down.
    Also, i’m sure you’re already aware Elliot but the Kill the Moon reaction is blocked - any chance of a re-upload?

    I know a lot of the Christmas specials are tearjerkers, but sometimes I feel like it's just too depressing, otherwise I quite like this special and it closes off Series 8 very well as an epilogue. Very much looking forward to Series 9 reactions, it's always fun to revisit the series through a reactors eyes, especially the stretch of episodes from Face the Raven to Husbands.

    Moffat explained in this video ruclips.net/video/styqnGNTffM/видео.html at 10mins 36 secs (part of his farewell interview with Cristel) that he was sketching out an idea of Shona being the next companion after Jenna decided to leave but Moffat changed her mind late on before filming Last Christmas but not before the read-through.
