Doctor Who “Robot Revolution” Review: Meet Belinda Chandra
The destroyer of the “robot revolution”.
The beginning of any season Doctor Who It’s important, so when there are new co-stars to introduce. The “robot revolution” must make us fall in love with Belinda Chandra (Varada Sethu), endnare new fans and keep existing fans obsessed. Especially since this is the second of two series Disney pays, which means it has to be done well enough to keep the money in circulation.
We opened “17 Years ago” with Belinda Chandra staring at the stars next to her boyfriend Alan Budd (Jonny Green). It’s an awkward teenage date, and Alan apparently tries to win his beauty by buying one of those celebrity adoption certificates. In 2025, Belinda is now a nurse at a busy London hospital, and in the backstage, the doctor is looking for her.
Belinda went home to sleep and we saw her having a certificate of ownership of stars on the wall. But she was awakened by a group of 50s-50s robots from the Ding Ding Rockets who had been kidnapped. and Certificate. The doctor happened to arrive at her home in time, saw the Rockets take off, and prompted for an opening remark.
The certificate is not a gag present, she is actually the queen of Belindachandra, the planet of Belindachandrians (from now on, I call them humans). Doctors chased in TARDIS, but both the Rockets and TARDIS were trapped in a vaguely defined crack of time. When Belin reaches Da, her Sasha 55 greets her, who tells her that the robot is responsible, has overthrown and conquered people a bloody uprising ten years ago.
“Oh, it’s kind of like Jupiter ascends,” I wrote in my notes.
Belinda is taken to a throne room and she is told she must merge with the evil ruler supercomputer AI generators of the planet. AI generator, all skull shapes and Tesla coils, are intended link and Belinda. She shows an animated demonstration of her fate when she is wrapped in machine parts and made into an unconscious cyborg.
“Oh, it’s like from Superman III,” I wrote in my notes.
Who has been lurking in the background of the scene? Doctor, has adopted the title of planetary historian. (Because of time, he arrived here six months before the Rockets, the robot caught Tardis, who had been working with the rebellion. He even had a new companion, Sasha55, who promised to bring him to the stars when he was everywhere. She. In the subsequent battle, Sasha55 evaporated, which was very important to the doctor’s brief horror and sadness.
Surviving rebels, and a small room, assigned to clean Queen Belinda’s road…
“Oh, like cleaning robot MO from floor wall-e,” I wrote in my notes.
…Escape to the teleporter, and the doctor disables Roomba to make sure the robot cannot track them, and then kiss the “robot” by apologizing. Then it was time to stop when the doctor and Belinda first interacted. The doctor was told by someone in their future that Belinda could not say more, lest he confuses the schedule.
The fracture of the time of the two ship passes causes a lot of time-consuming problems, such as the robot having its own copy of the Belinda Star Certificate. But this is not a copy, it is the same object that starts at another point in time, and no one knows how or why they have it. Belinda, like Ruby in front of her, was perceived enough to know that two objects from different points in time could not occupy the same space, in order not to cause an explosion.
“Oh, it’s like Time card!,” I wrote in my notes.
The base is injured and Belinda immediately kicks into nurse mode, grabs IV and treats the patient. She quickly took charge of, impolite nonsense, and soon defended herself from any surrender when the doctor hints that “time-Wemi” is happening. She refuses to allow anyone to fight for her and is determined to capture the narrative and shape her way, no matter how much it costs. So she sneaks away, reactivates Roomba, and gives herself to the robots in exchange for their lives to avoid the rebels.
Belinda and the doctor were taken to encounter an AI generator, which turned out to be…Al Generator. When Belinda was kidnapped by a robot, she mentioned that her ex-Alan bought the certificate, so they kidnapped him, too. But the time fracture means Allen arrives ten years ago, merges with the machine (becoming a creepy cyborg) and starts the robot uprising.
Even so, Belinda was happy to sacrifice herself to him until she found out that Allen was holding his copy of The Star. She chose Time card These two pieces of paper were together, causing a big explosion of time, and only the doctor could pull her out. Belinda is safe, but the doctor mentioned that he is now intersecting the flow of time with Belinda. Meanwhile, Alan is poured back to a sperm on the floor, and the Roomba robot will be dragged away soon.
The doctor reunited with TARDIS, scanned Belinda and revealed that he had met her offspring – Mundy Flynn (also Varada Sethu) in last season’s “Boom”. Belinda might be curious that a person who is the same as her might be the same, but she doesn’t embrace the mystery. She was angry at the doctor who scanned her without her consent and he was seeing her as a difficult problem to solve.
After seeing Sasha55 die, she knew it was dangerous to hike with the doctor and wanted to go back to May 24, 2025. They opened the door to TARDIS and looked at the blank before the doctor decided to take her home “a long way”.
Once the ship disappeared, a series of objects began to float in front of the camera: a smashed black cab, the twisted wreckage of the Eiffel Tower, Belinda’s Star Adoption Certificate, and the May calendar, all days except the 25th. Um.
A lot can be done in such a short episode
Like many Disney eras, the “robot revolution” feels stuffed. On the one hand, nothing was welcomed. On the other hand, it feels like a show burning in a fast-moving movie plot. Given that everything is in a hurry and there are many instructions rather than displaying it, it is difficult to be tangible with the bet. We are told that the Earth is under the cruel thumb of the evil overlord, but the red it launches on the buildings in digital matte paintings is very small. We were told that Allen was a small thing, but we never really understood back He is revealed as a villain. We were told that the doctor was following their future instructions, but it would be great if some of them were portrayed.
Davis is crucial in revival Doctor Who and established a culturally noble man, which became under his leadership. His role in the history of the show is safe, but even so, his Disney Age series seems to be shocked by the work of his own successor, Steven Moffat. The “Robot Revolution” features Megaffen, found in ordinary trinkets, a split narrative and a prank that must be played. Not that Moffat has these ideas, but you can almost feel Davis trying to curl his less formal, more character-driven style into something else. Cynical people may suggest Davis reacting to an episode without a single credibility Doctor Who Magazine The greatest latest polls in the series, and Moffat has five.
In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if the script is a little crazy, the essence of gapp is the intentional strategy to frame the rest of the season. But even so, you will feel a certain level of a storytelling model that is not very feasible.
If the script is the weakest part of the plot, then the production design must win the championship. The retro futuristic robot calls for bright red Ford Thunderbird or Chevrolet Bell air, while the cleaning robot is obviously in style on the Volkswagen Beetle. I hope today’s Robovac manufacturers can follow this design that is quite user-friendly.
Behind the scenes
Doctor Who is a regular source of gossip, especially given the permanent vulnerability of stellar characters. It’s easy to say that the leader is about to quit, which sounds real because they left three to four years after the role. There are many recent reports that Ncuti Gatwa has withdrawn from the show, or is about to go on. Many of them also advised the BBC and Disney to reject new episodes of the green light until they see how successful the season is. In addition, the BBC said that since 2010, the budget for cutting funds and inflation has actually dropped by £1 billion (about $1.3 billion) in practical terms. It doesn’t help when asking directly about the future of the series (BBC Youth News Exhibition) News ProgramsRussell T. Davies chose to show the show’s position in a way that is about to re-ice on the ice.
I mentioned this because Belinda defeated Alan with her certificate and the doctor pulled her out. He said that when she touched the paper together, she needed a time to absorb huge energy. The doctor then grabbed his back as if he was in pain, but shrugged, and it was fine for the rest of the episode. However, fans with long memories know that the amount of energy absorbed from Vortex was killed by Christopher Eccleston’s doctor in 2005.
Mrs. Flood Corner
Mrs. Hongshui seems to like moving to the next door, no matter who ends with her companions this year. While being kidnapped, she called the neighbors to the police and told her parents that she loved them. When the rockets rise, she tells the audience that we haven’t seen her yet, and then returns indoors to avoid encountering a doctor, who sprints in the pursuit.
