I really like The Ghost Monument. I appreciate it more and more on every re/watch. I like its energy, the visuals and the togetherness of this group. Ryan had a lot of involvement. The Doctor seemed to be a sort of mentor alongside him. I liked the trick with the cigar. The Remnants are a great idea, and threat too. The ending where the Doctor is reunited with their TARDIS is beautiful. I was distracted by Angstrom’s hair. I had hair envy.

‘How are we in space?’ I like the look of these ships ‘Don’t touch anything.’ Doctor What do the bonuses mean? Well, that was close ‘Pythagoras never wore shades.’ Graham ‘you obviously never saw him with a hangover.’ Now hold on, if the Doctor’s outfit is new, where did the glasses come from? Did they come with the new coat and is the Doctor pulling Graham’s leg? Because they didn't have their sonic screwdriver with them when they crashed onto the train and they haven't found their TARDIS yet. The Doctor intimated the pockets on their old outfit were empty, didn’t they? Pulling Graham’s leg then Doctor ‘Do you two know what that is?’ ‘it’s a tent.’ 'Obviously, it's a tent. I meant -’ the last ever rally of the 12 galaxies don't drink the water The Ghost Monument is the TARDIS 'that's an old police box!’ Graham How long has it been since Grace’s funeral? Has Ryan had a chance to chat about it with Graham? How long was the Doctor there for, did she stay with Graham? Can't be at Yaz’s? So what did she get up to? well, that’s interesting ‘Were you born that miserable or did you have to work at it?’ Graham that tree story is shocking, what a lesson to teach your kid ‘We’re stronger together.’ Doctor. The Doctor forgets that later when she’s not telling Ryan, Graham and Yaz stuff. ‘Just one click of the finger and it lights itself.’ Well, that's given the resolution to the episode away love me some ruins sniperbots, call of Duty Ryan ‘Brains beat bullets.’ OK I like that the Doctor has to work to get to the TARDIS. I wonder if that could be extended to more episodes. A series where the majority of the time the Doctor isn’t able to access the TARDIS and travels in other ways The Stenza ‘My wife died because of them.’ ‘Mine too. I’m sorry.’ Wow bits of cloth, they’re all over the place cleaning up the wounded this is good ‘We see further back, The Timeless Child.’ Oh, that’s significant Null & Void, what a bastard ‘and them.’ ‘no.’ And that's that for those 2 characters I like that there’s a conservatory part of the TARDIS, the shape of the police box and then you walk into the TARDIS custard cream dispenser
