Spiders! Why did it have to be spiders?!

Why is it Christmas in the time vortex? #DoctorWho

Wow. Wow. New time vortex, and still loving that new TARDIS materialisation. Wow. #DoctorWho

Family Feuds

Jesus Yaz’s Mum is so desperate to know Yaz’s relationship status #DoctorWho #TARDIS #JodieWhittaker #DoctorWhoSeries11 #BBC #BBCOne

It’s such a shame that Shobna Gulati on #DoctorWho so far has been given the deeply predictable helpless “Mum” role. This isn’t sending the best message really is it ?

Ghost Grace
I’m too vulnerable for the ghost of Grace, ngl #doctorwho

Bradley Walsh continues to break my heart and demonstrate how good of an actor he actually is. It’s realistic how they haven’t forgotten Grace. Loved seeing Yas’s family too. #DoctorWho

Graham smelling Grace's coat ? the little things bring back the memories of the people you love and have lost #doctorwho

Spider Surprise

AHHHHHHHHHHH I HATE THIS. AND I THOUGHT PLANET OF THE SPIDERS AND KILL THE MOON GAVE ME THE CREEPS #DoctorWho

“We’re looking into extending spider’s lifespan.”
Me: WHAT IS F***ING WRONG WITH YOU?!?!?!?!?! #DoctorWhp

I'm with Graham, I can't stand spiders ? #DoctorWho
— Darren Chesterton (@whenisayrun___) October 28, 2018
You know what woulda made that a bit better? So you know it's set just shortly after The Woman Who Fell to Earth? Would have been nice to have seen some evidence and hints of these massive spiderwebs and such in episode 1, setting it up for episode 4. Right? #DoctorWho

Okay who is going to be checking for spiders tonight or is that just me going to send my hero wife to check out the bedroom just in case #doctorwho
— KevT Brown (@merimaat) October 28, 2018
I'm so scared of spiders but bloody hell, I felt so bad for the big one in this week's episode. What a great episode tho. #DoctorWho
— Dan (@PokeDan4) October 28, 2018
Amazing how quickly giant spiders become less and less creepy when compared to politicians. #DoctorWho
— Antje Freudenberg (@Mycopoftea) October 28, 2018
Another fantastic #DoctorWho episode. #Spiders scare the shit out of me but that story was perfect. And FINALLY, a TV show got the plural of Pakora right. It's 'pakoray' not 'pakoras' and said brilliantly by #JodieWhittaker to boot!!

Repulsive Robertson
Oof the Trump overtones were certainly strong this week. Alright episode, need time to digest and think about that. The ending was lovely though. Graham's speech was beautiful. #DoctorWho
— Dominic G. Martin (@DominicJGM) October 28, 2018
Woah, woah. What happened to all the baby spiders in the end? Why didn't Robertson die a coward's death like he was supposed to? I NEED ANSWERS. #DoctorWho
— Ellie P (@EllieCub) October 28, 2018
Man Robertson so arrogant jeeze you have giant archanids who want you webbed & he still ranting about Yaz's mom lol.#DoctorWho
— Inkling Mario (@InklingMario) October 28, 2018
What an AMAZING ep'! Had me on the edge of my seat throughout; & again with leaky eyes, (every ep' so far). Chris Noth was brilliant. Fave line, "Are you Ed Sheeran? Is he Ed Sheeran?" #DoctorWho
— Clive Dicken (@NekcidevilC) October 28, 2018
I am loving #TeamTARDIS. And the casting this series has been something else. Chris Noth! That’s an impressive piece of casting. And they left it open for him coming back ??#DoctorWho

Tune!
Can you believe Stormzy saved the day in #DoctorWho?
— David Chipakupaku? (@David_Chippa) October 28, 2018
#Stormzy helps to save the day against overgrown spiders in #DoctorWho – never saw that coming. It's a funny old show.

Graham saying he couldn’t believe the spiders were heading towards that ‘music’ … my thoughts too mate ?#DoctorWho

Team TARDIS
‘My fam… still doesn’t quite work.. Team TARDIS?’

Anyone else see Ryan making shadow puppets? #teamtardis
— Jonathan Toolan (@toolan) October 28, 2018
This is the strongest #TeamTardis there has been in years and the show and its stories are thriving because of it.
