Doctor Who Series 10 Recap: “The Doctor Falls”
The end of Peter Capaldi’s reign as the Doctor is nigh. And yet, in the end, everybody lived. Even Bill.
Last week, I was enraged at the killing off of Bill. I couldn’t believe the production would actually be so stupid. After all, there was no way the Doctor would be able to solve this. And the production acknowledged that, about halfway through the hour. The Doctor swore to Bill he would fix this. But despite his insistence that something would come through, she recognized the truth. He wasn’t trying to lie, but he wasn’t right either. He could not fix this.
The Doctor: Knock yourself out.
Missy: Your wish is my command.
But to assume because the Doctor could not fix it meant there was no hope was to underestimate Bill.
