What's this?

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
It's a scene from Torchwood: Children of Earth, one of the most memorable ones.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Not that memorable; which one was it? (All I can recall of Torchwood is a long series of shots just like this OMG)

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
In Torchwood yeah, but there's only one shot like that in Children of Earth - the one where Gwen is wondering where the Doctor is and recording it.

Maybe it depends on whether you watched CoE when it came out or not -- this scene was the centerpiece of quite a few BBC promos, IIRC.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, really only memorable for the people who saw the promos on BBC One at the time, which is less than 1/4 of the people who watched COE.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
No, it was a memorable scene in its own right. Especially for Brits, who are more likely to know who the Doctor is even if they don't watch Doctor Who. It's kind of comparable (in meaning) to that "I didn't say Superman exists and he's American, I said God exists and he's American" line from Watchmen.

Except all kinds of people watched Torchwood before COE and also watch Doctor Who but this scene doesn't stick out for a lot of us, which is why people are asking what it is. Great that it was memorable for you, but that doesn't mean it was for everyone.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-17 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
I'm the nonny everyone's responding to, and this is basically what I was saying.

Also, how is Children of Earth "not Torchwood" please?

er, no? I knew exactly which scene it was. But I've also watched CoE over a dozen times and listened to the audio files twice that amount (it's very entertaining when doing mindless accounting)

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Apart from the cabinet scenes. Those scenes were haunting, and hell, prophetic of the current english government.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Prophetic? What makes you say that?

(Anonymous) 2013-05-17 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Demonisation of the underclass to justify doing awful things to them? Although to be fair, with a Tory government it's not exactly the biggest leap of faith.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-16 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Memorable for you, maybe. I saw COE but really only the ending was memorable for me. I haven't bothered to watch it since because I loved the MOTW format and so my Torchwood rewatches have been limited to that.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-17 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
I watched it and I don't remember this scene either. That was a long time ago.
