>What happened to the old Doctor’s skull? Surely they would’ve piled up. Just next to bird in the first/last room
No, the very last skull he burns as he dies and slaps his hand on the lever to reboot the teleport
Based Moff knows the truth.
No, it doesn't, the skull is the only thing that remains after burning. The next Doctor finds the skull, disconnects it from the cables, and it takes it with him. Then it accidentally drops into the sea, just like all the previous skulls.
When I first watched Heaven Sent I was still with my ex gf. She had recently lost her uncle who she was really close with and when 12 says that line "the worst part about someone dying isn't the day they die, at least you have something to do...it's all the days they stay dead" she started crying so much and she always said that she hated the episode after that
>statement in a work of fiction pointed towards grief makes a point about grief
>grieving person decides she hates the episode for it
that's some really strange logic
So, first time around: where did those drying clothes come from and surely the first time around there was no skull too
the first time around there was a basic set of clothes provided by the castle, and one of the cycles the doctor just wore them and left his own clothes to dry, that's how his velvet coat became part of the cycle. the first time there was no skull, obviously, it just took him a very long time to figure out what to do,
>where did those drying clothes come from
there weren't any
the first time around he probably walked the rest of the way naked
>the first time around there was a basic set of clothes provided by the castle
that seems utterly convenient. Who put them there? Rassilon?
Yeah I mean I kind of get it...she liked magicians apprentice which I also love...but she giggled at 12s speech during zygon inversion which I never forgave her for
...
the castle isn't made to kill him, not really, it's made to make him survive the torture for long enough to make him confess. why do you think there's a bed, flowers, food? they can't extract the truth from him if he dies of starvation or freezes because he has no clothes
OH GOD
also: has anyone ever established why everything in the castle resets... apart from the diamond wall? Is it explicitly stated in the episode or do we just assume it's the only oddity?
When 12 figured it out the first/tenth time he looped around the veil in room 12, went and set things up for the next version (took off all his clothes to leave, set up the shovel and big plaque). It isn't hard to get that 12 would do that when he did Time Heist.
the diamond wall is not really part of the castle, it's the outer shell of the confession dial. 12 quite literally physically punches his way out of the walls of the dial
that's the best compliment a Doctor actor could get and it's coming from a former showrunner.
Tennantfags and Smithfags on suicide watch
of course he does, i think most of series 8-9 made it pretty obvious that they're in love (in their own autistic way)
>"the castle reset isn't perfect" seems a bit too convenient Moff
damn, that last revelation about the portrait...
Reminder Moffat had Clara leave The Doctor for a character called Me:

What a bunch of pseudo-intellectual bullshit relying on visuals and "symbolism" instead of actual plot.
Moffags are so fucking pathetic.

THE GENIUS OF CHIBNALL AND MOFFAT 2015-2020 TM CONFIRMED
>'I AM IN 12' is also written on the back of Clara's portrait. The trouble is, the Doctor draws too much strength from her smile ever to turn her face to the wall...
reminder that 12 is /ourwaifufag/
what if The Doctor did run out of deep confessions and just had to result to really embarrassing shit like once The Master caught me wanking at the Time Lord Academy
OH NO NO NO RTDBROS HOW CAN WE EVER RECOVER FROM THIS GENIUS OF CHIBBCHADS AND MOFFCHADS
This just makes Hell Bent's ending make less sense, honestly. Why the FUCK would Clara consent to any kind of memory wipe, regardless of who it affects? It clashes so intensely with what is previously established.
