Doctor Who Recap: Sign of the Times


A sequel to an unsettling, fan-favorite episode makes for a satisfying adventure.

This conveniently allows them to ask a lot of questions under the guise of testing the crew, whom they’ll be stuck with for at least five hours, because it turns out that the planet’s atmosphere is charged with galvanic radiation that requires the ship to make a slow descent. Before the Doctor accompanies Cassio and Shaya to the control area, he turns his captions off and tells Belinda to be careful of Aliss (she lip-reads this, but doesn’t take offense). • We got a Britney Spears needle drop during the outfit change this week — of course Disney has the money for “Toxic.” Maybe that song choice is meant to reflect the Doctor and Belinda’s relationship a bit?
