Doctor Who, S9 Ep8
Hi everybody, Mary here.
So, here's the review for the eigth episode in the ninth series of Doctor Who ! Without ay further ado, let's get started, shall we ?
The Zygon Inversion
So, here are the three words I've picked for this episode :
- The Zygon rebellion : So, as said in the previous episode, the rebels are just a limited number across the Zygons. Most of them want to live peacefully among the humans and not make a single noise. But Bonnie and her friends are saying otherwise. And in the end, when the bow is revealed to be nothing but buttons, Kate Stewart and the Zygon guards have their memories wiped out, and Bonnes becomes the second Osgood and has the memories of the truth, like the Doctor and Clara, since she's so important to the Doctor.
- Clara's still a badass : So, in this episode, we've seen Clara controlling Bonnie since they are linked, even their hearts, so they can't lie to each other without the other one noticing her heart going faster, and so on. She manages to send a text to the Doctor, who's only there for her, and Clara's practically the only person the Doctor would save if he could save only one person. And in the end, Bonnie needs Clara as a pressure towards the Doctor, so she's liberated from the cocoon to be used as a bait. But as usual, Clara is saved and goes happily in the TARDIS with the Doctor. If you want my opinion, I'm tired of this little "Clara is in danger, the Doctor worries about her, he thinks he's dead but he finds a way to find her back, and he only cares about her and he finds her back so they're reunited and happy forever" scheme that has been going on in the first parter (episodes 1 and 2) and the second parter (episodes 3 and 4).
- Osgood : But who's human and who's Zygon in the Osgood duo ? And if the previous Osgood survovor who lost her sister is Zygon and the human had died, and then was joined by Clara-Bonnie, doesn't that make two Zygons in charge of a Zygon-Humans treaty ? We will never know. But in my opinion, the message that was shown by the two Osgoods in the end, is that it doesn't matter if we have humans or Zygons in charge of the Osgood boxes. The message is, Zygons and humans are living on the same planet, they need to leanr how to co-exist in peace and harmony, since to have peace, they need to accept the other species as much as their own, and stop segregating. And I think that it's a very powerful message that should be seen more often on television.
Overall impression : I hated the scheme of the Doctor being worried only for Clara. The Osgoods had a better role and a better impact on the story to be honest. Great episode nonetheless.
Okay, that's it for today ! I really hope you enjoyed this post and I'll see you very soon with another one !
And as usual, our last word : KIDNEYS !
