1:31:31 this is one of my favorite scenes in the series lmao
I recall it being said that shooting for this was relatively simple, as the show wasn’t very well-known in France.
Paris doesn’t look like that anymore, these days it’s full of engineers and doctors.
Romana read a book to know what fashion to wear in 20th century Paris; apparently that book was Madeline.
Damn, I hate and also feel sorry for the villain here, he was trying to save his people while having utterly no regard for the life produced by his ship’ explosion.
Count Scarlioni is worse than his wife. Even though she stole the Mona Lisa, Count Scarlioni made a wicked mistake when he killed her own wife. Remember husbands, don’t kill your wives.
11:44: Why hasn’t she got any eyebrows?
Because Romana, Women have small eyebrows that are so small, you can barely see them.
By the way, that was not an offense towards women so don’t get angry to those who are female in this comment section.
That detective should have become a regular, he’s awesome.
First time going through classic who, man this story makes me wish we got to see more of the timelords in new who
