Spoilers: The Angels Take Manhattan
Summary: The Doctor enjoys a good book.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Doctor Who, or the characters.
Amy’s not completely sure whether she’s annoyed or amused. They’re in New York, picnicking in Central Park for goodness sake. The Manhattan skyline is all around them, it’s incredible just being here, there’s so much to see and do, yet the Doctor’s got his nose buried in some detective novel about a female private investigator.
She doesn’t care if he’s more interested in his book than in his surroundings, but does he have to read it out loud with so much relish?
On the other hand, it’s kinda nice listening to him.
As long as he stops with the yowzah!
The End

Thank you!

It's usually open TARDIS door's and BAM! DANGER!

It was a slow burner episode.
If he hadn't read that book...

Date: 2016-07-20 03:38 pm (UTC)I wonder if reading the book made things happen the way they did or helped to guide them through something that was inevitable... Timey wimey!
Sometimes, slow burners are the best!

It hurts my head trying to define it but most likely the timey-wimey.
The banter between the Doctor and the companion before things go south is always interesting.
