Yay. I been waiting for this episode to drop. These next few are so good but you already know that. 😇👼

Leguś

Fun fact, in the cold open scene where Doctor catches River, Alex Kingston on one of the takes hit her knee against Matt Smith's knackers. Another one, this was the first episode filmed for Matt and Karen so with Alex who had experience prior within the show, helped them a bit.

Josef Schiltz

Steven Moffat: "Of course time travel exists. How do you think you got here from this morning?" Matt Smith: "See? . . . This is what we have to deal with!"

Leo Cap

Your hair matches River's! (in her military gear)

paul mathers

"Right in the knackers!" 😂

Cen

Also all the 'non-angel statue' statues were actually actors and apparently it drove Matt insane that if one of them moved even in the slightest he would have to redo a scene. Hence why alot of the scenes later on became shots of the statues without any of the other cast members so they could use stills

Leo Cap

I haven't gotten to your review at the end yet, so you might have addressed it already -- but to answer your question about the "two heads", basically the Doctor and River simultaneously realized that if the statues were built by the Aplans, they should all have two heads rather than one

Leo Cap

WOW, Angela really predicted the gravity globe solution at the end. fantastic!

Lloyd Brady

I’m pretty sure that this episode was the first thing that Matt and Karen filmed together (they rarely ever film the stories in sequence), and you can tell straight away the report and chemistry they have between them. They became great friends as a result of working together on DW.

Leo Cap

Oh real quick, to clarify -- the "wife" thing was kind of some bait-&-switch dialogue "is River going to be your wife one day?" "Yes... ...I am definitely Mr. grumpy face today"

Leo Cap

WAIT wait wait... you don't like birds?? but birds are dinosaurs!

Jason

You are 100% correct. The Time Of Angels 2 parter were the very 1st episodes Matt & Karen filmed + I remember paparazzi shots on the beach (which coincidentally is Bad Wolf Bay btw) RTD & Moffat believed that it's better to film other episodes before shooting an Ep 1 as its fairer to the main leads. Let them build good chemistry without pressure on their debut. So The Eleventh Hour was shot later after Matt & Karen had built up a good working relationship on set to make it less pressuring. You can see the incredible chemistry Matt & Karen have from the beginning & it's electrifying 😍

The Lore Merchant

The chemistry between Alex Kingston and Matt Smith is just *chefs kiss* The Doctor knows how "dangerous" she is, and is trying very hard not to be charmed by her, but can't help himself.

V1rtu0u5

Okay can they just start carrying baseball caps with mirrors facing inward? =P

Ken Penttinen

The Bishop was Ser Jorah Mormont from GoT :)

Natalie

I knew you were gonna love this one. And yes, I too find Matt dreamy.

Darth Muppet

Tee-hee… I have been WAITING for so long for you to get to this one! River and Matt’s Doctor are so much fun together.

Jake Beaumont

To touch on your question "so they can't ever die, you can't ever smash them with a hammer". You may or may not be able to smash them, but the point is you're not smashing a weeping angel, you're smashing a statue. The weeping angels literally stop existing when you look at them, in other words, you cant ever see a weeping angel. You might be able to destroy the statue and make them non-physical when it turns back into a weeping angel, but im not sure a non-physical weeping angel is an improvement. There may or may not be some potentional issues for this presented in next episode, but I have my own fan explanation for that.

Michele Jean

The thing of you watching Dr Who for the first time means future episodes for you are previous episodes for us. So in the words of Professor River Song, “Spoilers.”

Ben

Or much like the doctor and river, our past her future.

Michael Siegel

One thing to single out: Murray Gold's music! He completely reinvented the sound of Doctor Who for the "fairy tale" aesthetic that Moffat was going for. And it works so well. You really see it start to shine in this pair of episodes. So many episode I'm looking forward to seeing your reaction to. I can't wait (which is why I joined the Patreon :)

Adinium

With what you said about Victory of the Daleks changing the timeline, that's not what happened at all. The Daleks in that episode are survivors from Series 4's finale. So the events of the Dalek stories of Series 4 still happened, Amy not remembering is something completely different that will be explained later

Adinium

the doctor didn't confirm river was his wife, he said "Yes... I am definitely Mr Grumpy Face today"

Chris Biebel

Yes, the River Song- Doctor relationship is...complicated (Spoilers!). Actually, calling it complicated is a gross understatement (Spoilers!). To tell you the truth, River Song herself is...extremely complicated. (Spoilers!) I do have to say that the beginning of this episode is so fantastic because Alex Kingston was smoking hot in that outfit.

Ian Swallow

I’m not sure if someone else has said this & it might be only my interpretation. But I’m fairly sure what went on was that the Angels killed off all the Aplans. Then The Angels retreated to the maze of the dead and over hundreds of years began to starve & their form degrade. The Angel on the Star-Liner knew about their siblings & caused the ship to crash. The crashed ship then helps to reanimate the Angels.

AnastasiyaK

Love your excitement when seeing River!!! I love this two-parter so much. I just love River so much and Alex and Matt have such good chemistry. This being the first thing that Matt and Karen filmed as Doctor and companion is crazy cause they do such a good job, you can’t tell at all.

Russell Crockett

Question for the the sci-fi geeks in the room. If Data from Star Trek, or some other android being was viewing the angels, would they be stone? If not, would that in itself prove that the machine was alive? Just a nerd thought to get your gears going….

Howie

When Father Octavian spoke, I immediately recognized his voice.. I was like, JORAH MORMONT! The scene with Amy and the angel on the screen was definitely one of the most memorable Doctor Who moments.

Aeriel Diettra

I left this as a youtube comment but I wanted to say it here too; I think the most important things to know about the 11th Doctor are that he shouts when he's scared, and he's quiet when he's angry. That can help to understand his reactions sometimes.

Maria Stoycheva

Angela, I believe you were a bit excited to see River and forgot to watch carefully ;) When the Doctor answers 'Yes', he doesn't actually answer Amy's second question (re: River being his future wife). he answers her first question (him being grumpy). remember, he knows exactly as much about River as we do - he has no idea what their relationship in the future is. btw, that look Matt gave when River said "there's a creature in the belly of this ship that can never die", that was the closest I think he has ever gotten to Daemon. for a second I almost saw him. but the stupid hair ruined it :D

Maria Stoycheva

great question! why don't we put a Weeping Angel, Data and, I'd say, Murderbot for good measure, in a room and see what happens. I expect both Data and Murderbot to be unimpressed but other than that...

Maria Stoycheva

I never thought about it too deeply (why they stayed, why they starved in the first place) but that explanation seems legit. I have no idea how Angels travel. do they have spaceships? was it just a matter of no other options to escape the planet?

Maria Stoycheva

thank you! seeing your other comment, you and I will get along great - I also love to mention stuff that Angela missed or misunderstood :D I sometimes wonder if I got those things from watching the show myself, or through osmosis from being in the fandom for so long... I am sure that I, too, missed plenty of details when I first watched it.

David Vandervliet

An interesting was this story was mentioned in Silence of the Library when she wants to compare diaries "Crash of the Byzantium" have we done that yet? This story was planned for Tennant,

David Vandervliet

A friend of mine took stills from the Angel loop and saved them for their computer desk top. And they would randomly change every 30m or so. Every now and then she would minimize or close a program and suddenly the Angel scare the hell out her

Robert A.

It was announced very recently that Doctor Who will be leaving Max at the end of July. No idea where it's gonna end up next -- some say Disney, but that seems unlikely for reasons...I hope this doesn't throw a wrench into your viewing schedule 🙃

Kthulhu

This might have set a record for most Angela jump-scared in a single hour.

William Hurley

Another question, if a dalek is looking at an Angel, and the mutant inside the casing blinks, does the angle move or does it remain stone because the eye stalk is still looking at it?

Margaret Pratt

Iain Glen was also in Downton Abbey as one of Mary’s fiancées. Great voice.

James Miller

Well, Data blinks, so he be sent back in time, and probably lose his head.

Code76

Disagree on your logic there. The Doctor knows who she is to him, at least enough to confirm the question. She knew his name, and in the Forest of the Dead he said there's only one way she could know his name. Heavily implied that is because she is his wife.

Maria Stoycheva

I never took it like that. When I first saw the show, I just assumed there was a situation in which he would tell her his name. I never associated it with marriage, or vows, or prenups, or anything like that. I am not a person who often thinks about marriage, so this is probably why my mind never went there but I still think there are plenty of situations when he might have told her his name (including the last time they met, when he was actually preparing her to meet his younger version and gain his trust?) I imagined (and still do) that he did it because his younger version had heard her use his name, and he just figured he'd close the loop (classic sci-fi trope). not to mention... spoilers? I am not saying anymore, iykyk. :)

Maria Stoycheva

William, ask us again after next episode because...spoilers ;)

Maria Stoycheva

oh, that's terrifying! considering next episode, do you mean that any angel that you smash with a hammer becomes... that? oh! but how? I am just suddenly VERY interested in Weeping Angel physiology :D

funnylilgalreacts

🤣 my husband said "that was a lot of yelling!" Yep. Jump scare queen over here

Josef Schiltz

Alex Kingston had the same thoughts on those shoes. "The most uncomfortable" she said she had ever worn. No wonder they ended up off rather than on. It was also said that Matt Smith wanted them. (jokingly?) Shooting out of order, this was Matt's first performance as The Doctor.

JPL042

You gotta react to the minisodes, it helps fill in some gaps in the lore as Matt Smith’s Doctor progresses 🙃

Aloy

Paused your reaction to say I've never encountered anyone who was ornithophobic or didn't like birds and I just feel validated so thank you for saying as much, and I totally get it.

Molly Campbell

I just saw that Doctor Who is being removed from HBO Max at the end of the month. I hope that doesn't mean the end of your reacting to it.

funnylilgalreacts

If Disney+ doesn’t pick it up then I’ll probably have to buy it off of Amazon. I’m definitely not stopping.

Molly Campbell

Oh thank god, but that sucks if you have to buy it! On the other hand, this is a pretty cool show to own, so maybe it's a toss-up?

funnylilgalreacts

I’m kind of obsessed with it so I don’t plan on leaving it now lol

Leo Cap

I was campaigning for this too, unfortunately I don't think the minisodes are officially streaming anywhere. there are some on youtube, but they're all pretty mid-quality

Josef Schiltz

The last person to land the TARDIS so smoothly was an acolyte Time lady called Romanadvoratrelundar - Romana for short. She bothered to read the flight manual.

Just wait until you find out who River really is. It'll knock your socks off....and I will say no more except... spoilers.

Josef Schiltz

Nipping back and forth between your Wednesday reactions and Doctor Who. Thoroughly enjoyable combo. Now I see why you enjoy Matt Smith's Doctor so much. David's Doctor might enjoy a brief visit to Nevermore. Matt's would hang out there on a semi-permanent basis just to enjoy the local ambience. I used to watch the original Addams' Family back in the 60s. This is a great follow-up.

Alexander

Why would you say that? Can't you just stay quiet - there's no need to spoil that there is any reveal coming. FFS. Have some self control.
