Mummy on the Orient Express - Doctor Who Review


Lets Get Real:

A real cracking Drama and Doctor Who to boot, the Mummy was the monster, thus the title, but it was for a reason, it was being spoiler.   The relationship just gets better between the Doctor and Clara, the affection but also Clara's anger at being miss lead by the Doctor, the good Doctor has trust issues is an understatement, if he was your Doctor on the NHS he might cure you or frighten you to death.   The 12th Doctor cares about humanity without being human, he is a Time Lord always asking questions.   It was moving at the end how the Doctor solved the problem, and showed his mercy for an old Soldier,  being forced to do his duty.   The set for the episode was fantastic, you really felt like you were on the 30s Orient Express, also the guest cast was excellent, and that 66 second clock was horrible, the Doctor showing his alien side, wanting information as some was being killed, was ruthless but need to be done, and the Doctor does what needs to be done, just like Captain James T. Kirk.  Another Episode to watch, also the end when Clara changed her mind about leaving her care patient, they fit each like a glove, they need each other, but bicker all the time, great fun, AND drama.
