Where did the other Tardis come from?
« on: January 02, 2021, 03:01:43 PM »
The one disguised as a house n Sheffield, that is?
I watched the New Year special last night, and I've watched all or most of the 13th Doctor's previous adventures, but I'm blowed if I can remember. (I'm hopeless at following complex plots.) Anyone?
I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.

At the end of The Timeless Child, the Doctor finds unused Tardises on Gallifrey and programmes one to take the companions back to Earth. She later escapes in her Tardis but is arrested by the Judoon.

Oh, yes - many thanks. Pity it got destroyed at the end of the NY special.

 By my calculation that only leaves three TARDISes in existance. I could be wrong, though.
"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."

If by the third you mean the other Doctor's one, which was buried at the lighthouse, that's the same as our Doctor's one.

Nope......OK, so I'm a geek.... In 'the brain of Morbius' (Tom Baker era....) Morbius stated that his TARDIS was hidden from the Time Lords. See what I mean about 'geek'?
