We still dont even know what the THING WAS
there is no monster in all of doctor who that terrified me as much as this one. I mean yeah there have been terrible, terrible creatures, but the doctor always managed to defeat them. He didn’t manage to defeat this one. It’s still out there, on the diamond planet and it would’ve killed him and taken over the whole universe if it wasn’t for that stewardess. Because if a creature like that can live on the diamond planet – a planet where everyone thought nothing can survive, what can it do to the rest of the world?
Not only was the monster deeply disturbing, but the humans were as well. In this episode we have both humans at their lowest, lashing out in fear like mindless animals, and humans at their best.
i was literally shitting my pants during this episode
And it was the Doctor thinking he was clever that got him into so much trouble because he wouldn’t stop talking.
Scariest episode.
