DOCTOR WHO in six



This section of my blog is basically my own hot take on each episode of Doctor Who, specifically "new Who." If I'm being completely honest, it's just an excuse during quarantine to studiously watch Doctor Who all over again. 


I can't promise I'll have anything brand new to say, but it will be my own perspective on it, which may or may not eventually just become a podcast.....? 


These reviews will be separated into 6 categories, hence the name of these reviews: DOCTOR WHO in six.


I'm also putting it out there that I'm not exactly a true fan, in that I have only seen Doctor Who from the ninth doctor to the present day. I wish I was cool enough to go back and watch classic Who, but I'm not, so there you go. I will be lacking knowledge of most things that happened before nine so I apologize if my analysis is lacking or even incorrect. 


With that said..... here we go!

I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years. Nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years.

By this time in our trip, our group has already seen Shakespeare's All's Well That Ends Well at the Globe . . . which was superb. Today, we got to take a tour of the theatre itself. Might be one of my favorite sight seeing things I have done. It's just that I have spent so many school years learning about this theatre and the time of Shakespeare. I feel like all I had learned didn't really stick until today. I was there. I was in the space where it all happened. It's true what my English professors say, that if you really want to major in English, your life wouldn't be fulfilled to you come to England. Everything I have learned just gels together all of a sudden. It's beautiful. A wonderful event in earth's history. A stunning creation wrought by humankind. For instance, I learned that the people who watch from the ground are called "groundlings." Makes sense. They were also called "penny stinkers" because they paid one penny to get i...

In the spring I shed my skin and it blows away with the changing wind.

And so begins my Brighton Beach Memoirs. Most of our group took a day trip on Friday to Brighton. After taking the train out through gorgeous green country, we reached the coast. Can you see the ocean yet? How about now? And there it is. It was a tad chilly and pretty windy, but there was sun and ocean, so we were happy :) It was such a relief to be able to leave the rushed city of London and go to Brighton. We were able to take it slow and just relax. A pebble beach isn't nearly as comfortable as a sand beach, but it is something to look at. Here it is ladies and gentlemen. Legit fish and chips on the sea side of Brighton. It was good, except I didn't have nearly enough tartar sauce. This is a lovely pier that goes out a ways and has treat shops and a mini theme park. It's adorable! We then basked in the generous sunlight right beside King George's little vacation palace. Don't ask me which King George. I wasn't enough in the touristy mood to take note! Then c...

Yeah, I went to Spain.

So this is naturally where our journey begins to Madrid. But I've never had to climb up a latter to get to my plane before. That was a brand new experience for me. I felt like I was in the movies! Can you believe this view from my plane window! Gorgeous! It was refreshing to rise above the overcast London sky and pop out into this sunset. The sky was bidding us welcome on our journey to Spain. So we arrived to our first hostel around midnight that night. To be honest, we were all a bit nervous to be staying in the part of the neighborhood we did. There were a bunch of men out, with hardly any women on the streets. But as you can see here, this view from our hostel seemed much friendlier in the morning. This hostel was the worst, so it was good to get it over with. My group was terrified at the possibility of bed bugs and the beds felt like they were made of cardboard. The street in front of our first hostel. Yeah. A little shaddy :) To be honest, not really. Cuz you see tho...
