I just watched Doctor Who S10 ep 1, and I loved it! I love love love Bill, she's amazing and bright and real and smart and curious and not afraid to ask questions! And I love Twelve, and does he have such a gorgeous office in previous seasons as well or is it just now? The story was lovely and I so look forward to seeing what Bill and the Doctor are going to be like together, especially since for once the sexual/romantic attraction aspect should be ruled out, so it'll be all the other awesome stuff instead about a curious human being introduced to all of Time and Space by an adventurous Time Lord. I'll do a more proper post later on, I hope, but I just wanted to get the first squee out right away. And I don't care how timey-wimey it's going to be to watch this while I'm also watching S5, timey-wimey is fine.

I'm so going to need Bill icons!

The show already sets him up as someone so special who (nearly) always saves the day and knows more than anyone and can travel all across time and space in a phonebox - if he was a perfectly nice person with great social skills, too, it'd be terrible. :-D

Hahaha, yes. And it's also really important that it's only nearly always, because otherwise he's just got a magic get-out-of-consequences-free card, and that would be awful. (I'm still bitter about the 50th anniversary special. You haven't seen that one yet, have you?)

I agree. Sometimes things have to go wrong, because that's life, even for Time Lords, and also you stop being worried if they'll make it, if they always make it.

No, I haven't seen the anniversary special. I've run across some vaguely spoiler-ish things about it, but not enough to get the whole picture. I'll let you know when I get there, and if I don't like it either then we can bitch about it together. :-D

I admit, I'm really interested to see your reaction. Most people had a very different one from mine, but I feel very strongly about it.
