we live for Peter’s delivery of “that’s okay... i’m good at traps.” trying to convince himself that he’s still in control and not be ruled by his fear. #HellofaBird #helluvaactor
and here’s one of the beautiful moments of this script: the Doctor is scared and he is letting himself be scared. how often do we get to see the Doctor afraid and not blustering over it??
spoon shot is the money. one of the most iconic images from this episode. #HellofaBird
we would say murray is the MVP, but everyone is the MVP of this episode.

@rtalalay using the focal length shift here to show the Doctor realizing what’s happening is UNBELIEVABLE. just an incredible episode from start to finish. #hellofabird
just a great time to drop in the link for the banger track murray composed for this scene. frenetic and then tender, brass-heavy and then gentle, rising strings — incredible.
this is The Doctor, for me (brenna, obvi). he does not give up, he does not stop, even when he knows he’ll lose. he does what he does because it’s right. #HellofaBird
ACT. ING. #HellofaBird
truly, this is murray gold’s finest hour, and “the shepherd’s boy” is his peak composition. DAMN. #HellofaBird
i’ve said it before, but: this episode got me through a very severe bout of depression last year. on very bad days, i would think about the Doctor getting up again (and again and again) to punch that damn wall... and that helped me get up again, too.
so thank you to @rtalalay and @StevenWMoffat and murray gold, and everyone that made this beautiful, mad, perfect episode. it truly is one #HellOfABird
