Frail Whale (Baiting “The Beast Below”)

Pull To Open - A podcast by Pete Pachal and Chris Taylor - Sabato

Why did it take Doctor Who so long to do the “star whale” concept? If the show was waiting for a particularly strong script, it probably should have sailed right on by The Beast Below, which doesn’t exactly bestow the idea with a lot of dignity: it could be the only time Doctor Who has introduced a creature by showing it barfing. Even though the show is mostly using this cosmic cetacean as a metaphor for an ancient semi-god who just wants to be nice to children and help out when they’re crying, you can’t help but feel like the odds are against the Beast. If this story succeeds, it’ll be a major fluke. Leave a review on Apple Podcasts!
