That's...that's...that's BRILLIANT.
I need to re-read The Waste Land.
I need to re-read The Waste Land NOW.
That's...wow.
the Doctor losing his mother is the dark secret behind his frantic attachment to all these earth girls.
At the beginning of "Smile" when Nardole knocks and Bill says "Who's that?" the Doctor mutters, "Mum."
