Just for anybody interested in Doctor Who, just to be aware the chosen video was one of the less well-received/liked one of Capaldi's run as the character, in case you watch it and go,"Well he kind of sounds like a piece of poo poo if you think about what he's saying here!"

At this point, hasn't everyone that is going to watch Dr Who, watched Dr Who? (But, apologies for the selection.

Well to be fair, rule one of being a Doctor Who fan is that none of us can agree on anything when it comes to what was good and what was bad! So maybe there are plenty of people who liked it too, I just remember plenty of people (myself included) not really liking the themes of his big speech basically being that the oppressed need to "grow up" and stop expecting people who did monstrous things to them to deserve consequences for their actions, and work with them (to basically recreate the same status quo as before!). Still a great performance by Capaldi regardless.

I gotta watch more Taskmaster, first time I saw an episode I ended up binging an entire season, but I haven't gone back to watch anymore. It's fantastic but deeply addicting.
