oh look, it's a post about Doctor Who - first time in almost a decade

I wasn't going to watch the new Doctor Who special, but then I got spoiled for a returning character and my interest was piqued. And apparently the thing I would hope for in regards to this character does, in fact, happen in some way. Also, this is on Disney+ and I'm subscribed to that platform for the moment, which makes the whole thing feasible in a timely* fashion.
*unintentional, but amusing

However: I haven't watched Doctor Who since midway through Eleven's time. And having checked the "previously on" section of this episode, it seems like it might be a good idea to watch the Christmas special from last year in order to get needed context. But maybe I shouldn't bother at all, not even with the new episode? IDK!

i have missed the last two and a half doctors entirely, but plan to watch the donna bits at least. though, now that it's readily available for the first time in my life, it might become cross stitch viewing...

Yeah, if Disney keeps DW, I may do the same, but for beading.
