It’s Closing Time for DOCTOR WHO

Matt Smith Doctor Who BBC

The title for the next episode of Doctor Who, Closing Time, is a pretty accurate description for the good Doctor’s adventures because Season 6 is getting ready to shut its doors. Fortunately, you can check out the latest preview for the upcoming episode while attempting to forget that bit of bad news.

The Closing Time title is also fitting because – well, I don’t want to reveal any spoilers for those that haven’t been keeping track. Let’s just say it’s not a coincidence that the Doctor is visiting Craig (James Corden), who we last saw in the 2010 episode, The Lodger. I suppose you could call it a farewell reunion.

One thing is certain. Craig’s short time with the Doctor provided him with plenty of insight into what to expect when the time lord pops up, as revealed when Craig exclaims, “You noticed something and you’re investigating it. And because it’s you, it’s going to be dangerous and alien.” Yep, Craig has definitely been taking notes.

The Doctor also decides on a temporary career change when he gets a job at a toy store, but he still keeps his trusty sonic screwdriver at his side, which is a very good thing because the Cybermen are back.

Incidentally, if you haven’t been keeping track, what the heck is wrong with you? Lots going on with the Doctor and his intrepid companions so you really should get up to speed with things.
