One spoilery complaint about "Listen"



Okay, it's a silly thing to be obsessing about, but I can't get over how the TARDIS was able to land on Gallifrey without all the alarms going off and guards showing up that we used to get.

For example, this scene from Deadly Assassin (start at 1:10).

Also, can the Doctor just go land in Gallifrey's past whenever he wants now? I thought it was still Timelocked / in another universe or something?

Well that's typical of Who - continuity be damned and everything else too, if the plot requires *this* to happen.

And I agree it does make sense... It just doesn't bother me that much.

Fair enough. And actually, it's not even that I'm overly bothered myself -- I think I just like the alarms, so I missed them.

I agree that for the most part, this was a very strong episode. Clara was great in it.

Oh yes! I loved seeing Clara's parenting skills in action - actually MORE useful than Twelve's "dad skills"!!
