When I 1st saw the sea devil's, I thought their faces looked like chihuahuas or pugs! I still think they're kind of cute! 🐶🐕🦮🐕‍🦺

I definitely have thalassophobia, which is not so much fear of water, but what might be deep within it. Here's a good description from the internet: "Differing from aquaphobia, which is the fear of any type or amount of water, thalassophobia is the persistent fear of bodies of deep, dark water and what exists below the surface. Whether in the ocean, a deep river, or a large lake, the fear can stem from the thought of an unknown creature swimming below you or even just knowing how deep, expansive, and dark some large bodies of water are. Often, the most frightening part is the water’s ability to get darker the deeper it gets, coupled with what little we actually know about the life forms inhabiting the deepest depths." That coupled with a bit of claustrophobia and cleithrophobia (fear of feeling trapped), I TOTALLY GET YOU on the fear of submarines. (Add into that a bit of my fear of drowning and it's like PHOBIA BINGO up in here!). 😟😟

Also, I'll never get over how cute the Sea Devils are with their fishnet outfits -- like sort of an 80s Valley Girl on her way to the mall. I wonder at what point in their civilization they started using our fishnets for clothing, finding them in the water and thinking: 'You know what? That would LOOK SO GOOD on me!' 😆😆

Thanks for another great reaction. On whether the Master hypnotized Colonel Trenchard, it was deliberately vague. Often he can get full control of someone by the immortal words 'You will obey me!', whereas other times it doesn't really work. Personally I think with Trenchard, it is more that he just brainwashed him into thinking he'd be helping to expose 'dangerous enemy agents', but I guess it's viewer interpretation. On your phobias, Dr Who was renowned for being scary to youngsters who grew up with it (including myself) and one of the things which was cited in a discussion about it was that these early stories were very claustrophobic. That could be because of limited set size or that they knew it would ramp up the fear if you as a viewer felt you couldn't get away from the monsters of the show.. I share your fear of deep water though (although you'd be forgiven for thinking otherwise given my name lol!). See you next time!
