THE DOCTOR
No.

CLARA

CLARA (OS) (CONT'D)
You found him. You actually found Robin Hood.

THE DOCTOR
That is not Robin Hood!

ROBIN
Well then who, sir, is about to relieve you of your magic box.


ROBIN draws his sword.
On THE DOCTOR - his yes flash. Now it's personal. He leaps up on the log, confronting ROBIN.

THE DOCTOR
Nobody, sir! Not in this universe, or the next!

ROBIN
Well then draw your sword, and prove your words.

THE DOCTOR
I don't have a sword. I don't need a sword.


THE DOCTOR, with great ceremony, produces something from his coat. A gauntlet.
THE DOCTOR has slipped on the gauntlet, now fishes something else from his pocket.

THE DOCTOR (CONT'D)
Because I'm the Doctor. And this is my spoon!!


He advances to the middle of the log bridge.

THE DOCTOR (CONT'D)
En garde!


ROBIN laughs - and they set to.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Sword hits spoon. Back and forth they go over the log bridge. ROBIN lunges, THE DOCTOR parries. He's coolly, casually absolutely brilliant at it.

Haha, this is terrible fan fiction. Wait. What?

Holy poo poo that's bad. I mean even allowing for the fact that performances, staging, and direction might be able to make it bearable it just reads as everything critics of Doctor Who rail on the series for.

Was it ever even established that Silurians eat people? They always seemed relatively civilized up to this point. I mean with another nastier character I could see that joke maybe working but with Vastra I just don't see it. Then again everything with her, Jenny, and Strax does feel like a weird mish-mash of half-baked ideas and wasted potential.

Vastra eating people is not new

At some point before she's alluded to eating Jack the Ripper, and she had a big jug of blood ("this is not red wine") when she was talking to Clara in Snowmen.

Missy, the main villain of the series, is basically female River Song. She's obsessed with the Doctor, calls him her boyfriend and has a catch phrase. Also, the second episode has everyone shrunk down and exploring the inside of a Dalek. It's loving poo poo and reads like an awful parody of Moffat's tenure.

According to others, apparently the episodes themselves were on the same open server in .mp4 format. No word on if those were also grabbed. Either way, somebody hosed uuuppp.

I read a few. Listen is another Blink/Midnight and it could be better than either of those. Time Heist sounds like it will be 45 minutes of pure loving fun.

Here's to hoping she ends up an inversion and a direct "calm your tits please" rebuke to all the fans who would not stop gushing over Tennant and to a lesser extent Smith's sex appeal and appear to like Doctor Who only insofar as it gives them fanfiction fantasy boyfriend fodder. Here's to hoping at least.

Jenny is naked for an entire pivotal scene, because Vastra is painting her. Her modesty is covered only by a single piece of cloth. EXCEPT, hahaha, she's not painting her at all, just making her sit around naked for her own pleasure! It doesn't serve a single purpose except getting the actress to be scantily clad. In the script she's described as a nymph.

Later that episode both Vastra and Jenny are in sexy black cat suits fighting the clock work robots from the SS Marie Antoinette ( it's the Madame Pompadors sister ship! Hahahaha!) and the Doctor has another sonic screw driver = erection joke. "Oh, the symbolism!" The Doctor actually says.

In the episode Into the Dalek the Doctor and some human soldiers are miniaturized to perform keyhole surgery on a Dalek who has turned good because of broken circuitry. While inside the are attacked by floating orbs that serve as Dalek antibodies (like the robot Hitler episode!), fall into a waist high vat of human remains that the Dalek feeds on (the Doctor jokes about someone he just allowed to be murdered "Top layer if you want to say some kind words") and repair the damage only to turn the Dalek evil. The Doctor joins his mind with the mutant, trying to turn it good, but instead all the Dalek sees is his hatred for it. "You would make a good Dalek!" it's screams, calling back to a better episode and hinging the entire emotional denouncement of the episode on a copy and pasted line from a better script. In the end the now good Dalek kills itself and takes a Dalek ship with it.

Also, a T-Rex vomits up the TARDIS and the Doctor flirts with it. He speaks T-Rex.

Clara accidentally visits the Doctor in his childhood and finds out that he cried a lot and was generally kind of wussy. She realizes that he's afraid of the dark even now, which somehow explains the monster we've seen on screen. She also does some other "accidentally becoming a formative part of her boyfriend's childhood" poo poo which echoes Father's Day only somehow worse.

The T-Rex flirting is the very first thing the new Doctor gets to do. It's the very first scene of the first episode. It also goes loving nowhere as the T-Rex is dead within a few minutes.

The clockwork robots are back, this time with a menacing leader whose replacing his own faltering parts with human parts. At one point the Doctor tears a humans face off to reveal its robot head underneath, throws the face to Clara and then tells her it's real and used to belong to someone.

When they are about to be captured the Doctor leaves Clara to die and she breaks down crying, getting the robots to reveal their entire plan. BUT really the Doctor is there all along, just wearing the human skin as a mask to hide. "5 foot 7 and pretty. I knew you couldn't stop yourself once she started crying." Hahaha! Dont worry kids, he wasn't really going to let her die, he just made her believe he was so he could wear the remains of a cadaver and extract information from the clockwork robots.

Missy, the villain who calls herself the Doctors girlfriend lives in a place she calls heaven, and every episode features at least one person (good or bad) "die" and end up there. She's the woman who gave Clara the Doctors number way, way, way back.

Clara and Danny fancy each other, but the Doctor hasn't met him yet, though he's jealous of Clara dating. Clara hates one of the students at Coal Hill, a chav called Chelsea (she's coming along for an adventure in a later episode, though so far all we know about her is she hates Clara for having a "wide face."

One of the future soldiers is called Journey Blue. Danny Pink is a mystery.

Also, in the first episode the Doctor wonders aloud why he's got an old face, and why he recognizes himself. "Maybe I'm trying to tell myself something." The script notes that he looks like an old Roman man. Hahahaha! More mysterious mysteries.
