Spiders were all over the UK in this week’s episode (well, all over Sheffield at least) and we discovered quite a bit about them (who knew they didn’t like the smell of garlic!) But what did we learn about our favourite Time Lord this time around?

New TARDIS controls can be tricky
The Doctor doesn’t necessarily know which controls do what. It seems the reconfiguration of the TARDIS takes a bit of getting used to for The Doctor.

She really doesn’t want to travel alone
Well, this isn’t new but we will go with it.
With the shuffling of feet, the awkward lingering and looks away as she’s saying goodbye at the beginning of the episode, it is pretty obvious she doesn’t want Team TARDIS to leave. She dragged out the goodbye because The Doctor never really does well travelling alone, and 13 seems to know it.

She’s still figuring herself out
“Maybe I’m nervous, or just socially awkward. I’m still figuring myself out”. She’s still trying new things about her personality out. New things like turns of phrase “I call people ”Dude’ now”

She used to have sisters
But does she mean blood relatives? She immediately says “I used to BE a sister – in an aqua-hospital ……….” so perhaps these medical sisters were the sisters she used to have. Like most things about The Doctor’s history, it’s left ambiguous. Which do you think it is?
Adventures with Amelia Earhart
In conversation with Yaz’s family, The Doctor indicates she has had some kind of adventure with Amelia Earhart in which they had to deal with spider web silk that was woven as thick as a pencil and was able to stop a plane

She’s a hugger
Upon meeting Yaz’s mum for the very first time she immediately gives her an enormous hug. Quite the change from Peter Capaldi’s early attitude. Does anyone else want them to meet and for her to give her earlier self a massive bear hug now?

Still has her Psychic paper
Looks like this useful wallet didn’t get thrown out of the TARDIS or blown up along with Capaldi’s sonic.
