Before the Flood

Notes

  • The sounds made for the Fisher King as well as the 12th Doctor hologram ghost were done by Corey Taylor of the rock band Slipknot.
  • In the opening scene the Doctor plays notes on an electric guitar which leads into a rock arrangement of the Doctor Who theme song.  That video is embedded here.
  • The amp that the Doctor plus his guitar into is from “Magpie Electricals” – yet another reference back to “The Idiot’s Lantern“.

Starts w/12 doing a monologue about the "bootstrap paradox" - was a weird opening for Pt 2. Then he played a guitar! Pt 2 is part prequel to Pt1. It's an odd dynamic - figuring pic.twitter.com/aeZuTNu82N

out the order of things. In the end, it's satisfying, but the confusing time travel part of it makes the journey an odd one. Enjoyed this a lot more than I did the first time. pic.twitter.com/S2h5YD4uwG
