The TARDIS has redecorated, do you like it?
You can read our full review of ‘The Ghost Monument’ here but we wanted to know what you think. So we’ve sprinted across deserts and through tunnels to find your reactions!
Title Retort
Let’s talk about the new title sequence.
Put every classic #DoctorWho title sequence in a blender, then add in an extra dose of the first three, and you get this GLORIOUS THING. Thank god. Finally someone who isn’t Bernard Lodge actually gets it! ????? https://t.co/ho8XtFFFyo

I think I was expecting the Doctor's face to appear in the title sequence, but I'm not disappointed that it wasn't. When you think about it, since #DoctorWho came back in 2005, there hasn't been many title sequences that have featured face. I think only Matt & Peter had that.

New title sequence will take some getting used to. It's definitely an amazing graphical take on the howlaround of Hartnell to Pertwee, but at the same time I shall miss the TARDIS and the flying names. And the face. I like the stronger director/producer credit though! #DoctorWho

One question what the hell happened to the opening title sequence? Is that all we get……love the design & music composition but c'mon thats not an opening title sequence – the shortest one in the history of the show. #DoctorWho @DoctorWho_BBCA

Hope the title sequence next week shows the TARDIS with little biscuits dropping out as it moves through the time vortex #DoctorWho

Must be Thursday
After that asteroid belter (sorry) of a cliffhanger, some hoopy froods spotted the Hitchhiker’s influence.
"Bright idea of mine," said Ford, "to find a passing spaceship and get rescued by it." #DoctorWho

If they aren't rescued by The Heart of Gold, I'm going home.#DoctorWho

#DoctorWho DIDN"T KNOW THEY HAD ANOTHER MOVIE FOR HITCHHIKER"S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY.

Be Our Guest (Stars)
Shaun Dooley plays Epzo. Susan Lynch plays Angstrom. Art Malik plays Ilin.
Shaun Dooley crush is reignited #DoctorWho

Susan Lynch this week though ? Fantastic hair, sassy as hell, and queer, which was a nice surprise. #DoctorWho
— Lizzy (@girl_vintage) October 14, 2018
Did Art Malik do the whole episode without getting out of his chair? #doctorwho

The Chase is On
Sunday night was a Bradley Walsh TV invasion.
Tonight's #DoctorWho not as strong as last week's. the race/challenge was underwhelming and those killer robots were absolutely rubbish, but Angstrom and Epzo's rivalry was fun, and I'm still liking Whittaker and the gang.
— Stephen Watson (@WatsonTheScot) October 14, 2018
That was absolutely brilliant from start to finish.
The Doctor & her fam were perfectly characterised, it looked awesome, and… *Art Malik*.
And what an introduction to the new TARDIS!#DoctorWho— Alex Wilcock (@alexwilcock) October 14, 2018
Hope Bradley Walsh doesn’t say “the Chase is on” during #DoctorWho tomorrow otherwise they might all switch over to ITV.

Cut to the Chase
But what about the main plot?
A mighty episode, with a mighty cast. The Ghost Monument was a real tour de force, and I ruddy loved it.

#DoctorWho The Ghost Monument is fine. As far as second episodes go it's one of the weaker ones but still not below anything I'd expect from a second episode. The problems are clear as day though and I could go into them more after a rewatch. Direction and editing in particular. pic.twitter.com/tTOiJCqjeo

The Ghost Monument was somehow better and worse than last week, I'll need to re-watch it to gather my full thoughts but overall I think I liked it #DoctorWho
— Jean-SpooOOok Harry ? (@JeanLucHarry) October 14, 2018
The Ghost Monument is essentially the revival doing 80's #DoctorWho doing 60's #DoctorWho, if that makes any sense.

Thought The Woman Who Fell to Earth was fantastic. The Ghost Monument felt really quite messy though imo.
Still, the TARDIS looks nice although not a patch on Capaldis tbh. I could also leave the custard creme dispenser though. A gimmick too far imo #doctorwho
