Capaldi, Capaldi, & more Capaldi

[Gorn Captain]

Isn't it funny, both McCoy and Tennant are Scottish, but weren't allowed to use their accent for the part.
Now, finally, the BBC agreed to let him keep the accent. You'd think they were trying to throw the Scottish a bone, so they wouldn't leave the UK...

Also remarkable is that so many Scottish actors end up as the Doctor...

[Bruce Banner]

Really liking Capaldi in the role so far. Costume is great, too.
Looking forward to him settling in even more. Hopefully we've got some great stories to come.

I think the problem with understanding Capaldi is only when he speaks way to fast with his brogue. on both the two new episodes I had a few sections I had to rewind and relisten, sometimes just giving up and moving on. I actually have watch alot of BBC shows for years and never had this problem before :( Heck I even understand when the liam and noel gallagher talk and that is saying something, LOL

The accent might be worth writing to the BBC about, and while your at it. You could say how brilliant and scary that Chinese Clockwork droid was in esp. 1

My kids have not stopped asking about you since they saw you on the big screen. "Is Clem doing signings? Is he going to be an action figure?"

Was just talking Doctor Who with a buddy the other day and mentioned "I know" the guy that played one of the featured Clock Work Men

He told me I'm full of s___

[Mikey]

Ready for some new Who tonight

[Gorn Captain]

Men...in...tights!

Loved it !!!!!!!!!!

Anybody else think the Sheriff was a dead ringer for Anthony Ainley as the Master ?

[Godzilla]

I thought the same thing Mike! Was that a picture of Troughton in the computer databank file on Robin Hood?

I'm 3/3 on Capaldi episodes. That was a blast of an episode. Some classic one liners in there.

You guys weren't alone. I was thinking "Finally! They brought The Master back and they got it right this time."

[Gorn Captain]

SPOILERS!!!!!!

Great episode.
It was very funny, with the Doctor and Robin trying to outdo each other at every turn.
"I laugh in the face of danger!"
"Has anyone punched you in the face for that?"

I think Capaldi is doing a fantastic job, he's on fire!
From now on, I'm taking my spoon everywhere...

One minor point: the idea of the arrow is a bit silly, so the finale needed something more believable, imo.

But still, great episode!!!

[clemso]

Yes, that must have been deliberate. He was a dead ringer for the classic Master

Yes, I thought the sherriff looked a lot like Delgado's Master and the knights reminded me of the robot Linx makes for Irongron in Time Warrior.

I too thought that I saw Troughton in the data file, he played Robin Hood on Tv in the 50's i think.

Another nice touch was at the archery contest when Capaldi does a 3rd Doctor Aikido move with added " Hai ".
Facially, he reminds me of a cross between Pertwee and Baker. It's the eyes and nose.
