Published: Oct. 23, 2019, 11:30 a.m.

b"Okay, this \\u201c7\\u201d is a stretch but we made it work. Join Deb, Lynne, and Tansy as we dissect the rollicking, emotional, and devastating story duo of \\u201cArmy of Ghosts\\u201d and \\u201cDoomsday\\u201d. We give credit to 8 y.o. RTD (the obvious creator of the Dalek v. Cyberman smackdown) while calling out the emotional manipulation he inflicted upon both Jackie and Rose. But we all come together in our adoration Yvonne Hartman\\u2019s confidence (and tailoring) and Mickey Smith\\u2019s swagger. What are your favorite bits of this, literally, epic two-parter? Or was the emotional manipulation just a bit too much? Let us know what you think in the comments! ^D Happy things: Lynne is beyond thrilled that Arthur Darvill has been announced as a guest at next months\\u2019 Chicago TARDIS! Tansy is filled with maternal pride that her youngest bought their first sonic screwdriver \\u2013 and it\\u2019s the 13th Doctor\\u2019s! Deb is still recovering from seeing Christopher Eccleston at NYCC. She live-tweeted the experience in case you missed it!
