No spoilers ahead.
There are, like last episode, stories that slot into Moffat’s overall story and then there are … just stories.
I had to wrack my brain. That’s David Warner. He once played Jack the Ripper, in the movie Time After Time.
Kudos to Gatiss for putting Vienna in this episode, (Believe it or not, I first heard it just last year, via a cover on Spotify. I love that song. OK, so my backlog is that long…)
Previously here:
Doctor Who: The Rings Of Akhaten
Doctor Who: The Bells Of Saint John
I’ve loved that song for almost 30 years.
Being a Librarian Goddess, you have no backlog. You’re entirely hep.
Goddesses are omnipotent, don’t forget. We are everywhen always.
You don’t need no steenkin Sonic Screwdriver.
But I want one, that’s for sure.
