There's another idea about the Silurian's reaction to the hair dryer. Silurian's have no hair. Why would he recognize it's TRUE function. True, he's wearing a suit and holding a brief case(or something), but it's reasonable to assume he doesn't know what a hair dryer is and mistook it for and actual weapon of unknown design and function.
Timey wimey stuff, a mystery involving something normal (the locked door), a fun witty woman with an equally fun and witty name, a Silurian in a suit, and the Doctor stealing the show with food. Good to have you back, Moffat.

@@BlueSparxLPsI noticed one in a hotel in Germany just last month. We had to stay in two because our flight got delayed a day (😩) but the first one didn’t have one, I don’t think.
@@BlueSparxLPs Adjoining rooms are very common!! Most hotels have at least a few. They're so people traveling together can go between rooms. Especially for families traveling with children when you either don't fit or don't want to be all in one room. If both parties unlock the door, you can travel freely between. Though, on our cruise, the door automatically locked (there were two doors-- one from each room), so we had to jam some crumpled up paper into the latch so we didn't have to knock constantly.
No, there are tons of hotels in the U.S. with a locked adjacent door. I’ve stayed in hundreds of hotel rooms for work and travel and there are more rooms with them than without.
Its funny because the Silurians were brought back in Hungry Earth/Cold Blood from series 5 with Matt Smith. That two parter was written by future showrunner Chris Chibnall. Now the Silurians are back with former showrunner Steven Moffat
I was hoping with the new (and much better) Chibnall Sontaran design, we'd get something similar with the Silurians. Nope, they're just a joke now like the Sontarans have been for the past 15 years.
OMG this is so amazing. I love this preview. I have loved "WHO" since about 1981 when I was 2. I remember thinking Tom Baker, who is this guy back then.
Might be the best episode all season if it's written by Moffet. Same as the landmine episode was a Moffet one and that was the best of the aired episodes this season.
I've always assumed the locked door in hotel rooms is the connecting door to the next room; they unlock when two parties rent two adjacent rooms at the same time and ask specifically to allow contact between the them (which I've actually seen done). Otherwise, yes, it's locked. And can still be used for timey-wimey purposes, of course....
In the words of the 15th Doctor: "Someone tell me what the Hell is going on here?!?!?" He keeps going through the "wrong door" and then shows up after a Silurian is being threatened with a hair dryer?
There needs to be a future multi-Doctor special where 15 shows up at a really important moment where all the Doctors are teaming up, and say “ham and cheese toastie and pumpkin spice latte”, not realize that loads of his past (and future) selves are here, and then leave assuming he has the wrong person.
god i love ncuti's doctor so much you can't comprehend his charm kills me absolutely also hot take but his theme is the best out of any doctor just because of all the various ways they've used it
Woohoo! 🥳 As a longtime Dr Who fan and a big Nicola Coughlan fan, I am beyond excited! This is going to be one of the best Christmas presents ever, if I can find a way to stream this in Canada.
"The star seed will bloom and the flesh will rise" AKA the moon coming into alignment with the Earth (the reason the Silurians went underground thinking it was going to smash into the planet) and humanity rising as a species.

“Ham and cheese toastie and a pumpkin latte” classic
This is going to be the new "fish fingers and custard"
After the Doctor defeated Sutekh, he decided to serve lattes and ham and cheese sandwiches to cope without Ruby 😂
Yes, please!
Maybe he's moonlighting as an Uber Eats person
I cannot see the word classic without imagining Fifteen dancing to Kylie.
Oh. This looks like an absolute blast.
She looks like she'd be in a Christmas special and I mean that in the best way
It's the red and green outfit.

As an Irish whovian I’m excited to see Nicola Coughlan in the upcoming Xmas special. She’s one of Ireland’s rising stars. 😊🇮🇪
Edit: *risen stars 🌟🇮🇪
I would argue she's already risen. Derry Girls may have made her a known name, but Bridgerton put her on the map
I love her so much but keep forgetting she's not British so we can't claim her 😂I just hear her Bridgeton voice when I see her
@@AlexTawen Because she’s not British she’s Irish. Let’s not get into that argument. 🇮🇪🇮🇪😂😂
She's like...3.6 rising stars.
After one of her recent appearances in Bridgerton, something else was doing the rising. Well, *during* that appearance...
I already love Joy so much, she seems so sweet! Aaa I can't wait for Christmas
Sweet as honey.
I love Joy already. She's such a sweet person! 😊
Moffat era Silurian in RTD2! 🤩
Well it is actually written by Moffat so it doesnt surprise me that he is bringing back something like that 👀

Coincidentally, I'm having one as I watch this as well. 😅@timewyrmrevelations7700

They’ve probably filmed the 2025 Christmas one too
You sort of should, it's completely bad timing

It makes perfect sense for Christmas in July though👌
Trying to drum up some interest to keep the almost dead series alive till Xmas when no doubt they'll get closer to killing it off.
Wow, this is really Nicola Coughlan's year. She's in this, "Big Mood", and she was central to this year's season of "Bridgerton"
I loved Big Mood so much.
Yes delighted for her and hope this elevates her Carreer even further 🥰

Imagine if there was a Jenny and Vastra comeback!!! It has been too long since we last saw them.
The old man did mention two women ;)
Yes the return of the insert text and random location and year! (Not a hate comment btw genuinely looking forward to this one)
Ham and Chesse toasties and Pumpkin latties are about to become the most popular items on Christmas day 2024 now

Sounds a lot better than fish fingers and custard and some other things they’ve thrown out there in the past 😂
@@averyeml yeah, but I still love the others!! Especially fish fingers and custard
I know. And the most popular phrase whenever you go to a Starbucks. Lolz!
I was grinning all the way through that. For all the plaudits thrown at Moffat, I think the biggest one is that he just fundamentally gets Doctor Who.
and this is his swan song / There will not and can not be a S 3 unless Moffet takes over
Nicola Coughlan playing a character named Joy is just chef's kiss!
I so hope they're gonna mention Vastra, even as a small reference.

Somewhere out there in the first section is a blonde British girl hanging from a blimp, while a kid looks for his mommy
And Daleks are preparing to defend London from Nazis
They're all in WW II, but I'm not sure they're all in 1940...
1941 was when Rose was there I believe
Not to mention a mother preparing to tell her children that their dad won’t be coming home from the war.
and captain Jack is there like 3 times.

Did that silurian say "the flesh will rise" at the end of the sentence.. like the series six monsters?
Subtitles say "the star seed will bloom and the flesh will rise".
Probably a reference, but I think its just a problem with the Tardis's translation mechanism.
