Season 5 Episode 13: The Big Bang
Summary:
The Eleventh Doctor is locked into the Pandorica, Rory has shot Amy and River is trapped inside the exploding Tardis. The universe stopped to exist and only Earth is there in the eye of the exploding Tardis. Somehow the Doctor manages to jump back in time and give Rory instructions how he can get him out of the Pandorica. They leave Amy in the Pandorica and Rory guards her for 2000 years. Young Amelia still remembers the stars and she is able to resurrect Amy. Amy, Rory and the Doctor are reunited but they don't have much time to save the universe before it collapses totally. The Doctor is able to save River and brings her out of the Tardis. When a Dalek shoots the Doctor everything seems to be over but the Doctor is still alive and the last thing he does is piloting the Pandorica into the exploding Tardis. The universe is saved but will someone remember the Doctor?
This season really ended with a bang. The story is sometimes quite complicated with the many time jumps and everything but so many puzzle pieces are put together. Some scenes from the former episodes make more sense now when you know how they are connected and you are really amazed how Steven Moffat has mapped it all out. That's just some brilliant writing he does and I like that everything is somehow connected. The Doctor is able to save the universe and all the people in it but they also forget him because he has to be on the other side of the cracks, so they are able to close. I always wonder if River is the only one who truly remembers the Doctor. Her diary is empty but she has to know who he is or she wouldn't have given it to Amy. Well, we probably never know that for sure. I love the last scenes when Amy finally has a family and she marries Rory. The best thing of course is that she is able to bring the Doctor back cause what would we do without him?

Season 5 Episode 12: The Pandorica Opens
Summary:
Vincent van Gogh has painted a picture that shows an exploding Tardis. River tries everything to contact the Doctor and show him the picture. When they finally meet, it's in a Roman camp in Britain and River is disguised as Cleopatra. Together with River and Amy, the Doctor travels to Stonehenge where he finds the Pandorica. He always thought that it was a fairy tale but now it's standing in front of him and it starts to open. Soon, they notice that Stonehenge is transmitting a message and River finds out that thousands of different alien ships are around Earth. It seems that every race in the universe came together to form an alliance. River tries to bring the Tardis to Stonehenge but she has problems with her and lands in Amy's time. There she finds a book with Amy's favourite stories and also a book with Romans with a picture of Rory in it. Meanwhile in the past, Rory saves Amy from a Cyberman but she doesn't recognise him first. The Doctor wonders how Rory can be there but soon he has other problems because it seems that everything what is happening, is a trap for him.
This episode is quite exciting and we are able to see River again. I don't know, I just love the character of River Song, so I'm always glad to see her again. It's brilliant how many connections to other episodes are made in the first couple of minutes and that the characters reappear. That shows that everything is connected in a way. This episode brings the return of Rory as well, although he isn't human anymore. It's just great to have him back and Amy is able to remember him in the end. They have put so many different alien races into this episode, which I find really amazing. Who would have thought that Daleks, Cybermen and all the others would form an alliance to save the universe but they blame the wrong person for it. I love the little action scenes in this episode when Amy fights the Cyberhead or when River pilots the Tardis. This episode is a great first part of the season 5 finale but it's somehow very depressing because there seems to be no hope that everything will be alright again.

Season 5 Episode 9: Cold Blood
Summary:
The Doctor and Nasreen are captured by Silurian soldiers when they enter the city. Meanwhile Amy and Mo are able to escape from the lab and discover just how many Silurian soldiers live beneath the earth. They also Mo's son Elliot but they can't wake him up. When they try to free the Doctor and Nasreen, they are captured as well. The military leader threatens to kill them, when Rory and the others don't return Alaya but they can't because Ambrose has killed her. Amy is saved by the leader of the Silurians and she and Nasreen negotiate with him about the future of the humans and Silurians on the surface of the Earth. Everything seems to be lost when Rory and the others bring Alaya's body down into the city of the Silurians but the Doctor and all humans are able to escape into lab. They are searching for a way to get back up onto the surface before the drill explodes but do they have enough time?
This episode is a great second part for this story although it has a quite sad ending. It seems like it wasn't the right time yet for the humans and Silurians to share the surface of the Earth. They are quite similar in many ways but the difference are still to big to live together peacefully. I liked the Silurian doctor a lot and was a bit sad when he was killed while he tried to save the humans. You can see that the Doctor wants to think the best of humanity but sometimes he gets disappointed by what they do. Compared to the Doctor, humans are still children and have to learn so much before they can accept other races. The Silurians looked brilliant again and their city under the earth is an amazing place. A really great episode where the cracks appear again. That's another big mystery for the Doctor to solve.

Season 5 Episode 8: The Hungry Earth
Summary:
The Doctor wants to take Amy and Rory to Rio but instead they land in Wales in 2020. When he sees a big drill, he and Amy go off to investigate. Rory wants to follow them after he has put Amy's engagement ring into the Tardis but when he gets out Ambrose and her son think he's a policeman. He goes with them to look at a empty grave that has been emptied from below. Amy and the Doctor discover that someone vanished from the mine the night before and now there is a patch of earth in the floor. The drill is started again and it seems that the ground is fighting back. When the Doctor, Amy and the two workers from the mine try to flee, Amy is sucked into the ground. Suddenly there is a shield over the village and they all can't leave. Something is coming up to the surface and when it gets dark Ambrose's son vanishes as well. The Doctor and Rory can capture one of these beings and the Doctor now knows that they are Silurians. He goes under the earth to find the rest of them but what will he find?
I really love the Silurians. They just look amazing when they don't wear their battle masks and it's interesting to see how human they are. The first part of this two-parter starts really interesting and the way the people go missing, including Amy, is a bit spooky and you really don't know what happened with them. Then you see the Silurians for the first time and you think they are aliens but it's so strange to hear that they come from Earth as well. They were sleeping all this time and were now woken up by the drill. The Doctor is on a quest to bring Amy back and he will do anything to find her. He wouldn't be the Doctor though when he would use weapons. The Doctor always tries to talk to other beings and we will see if he succeeds this time as well. I think it's a cute seen when Rory leaves the ring in the Tardis and maybe that will play a role later on. A great first part of this two-parter.

Season 5 Episode 7: Amy's Choice
Summary:
Amy and Rory now live in a small and calm village and Amy is pregnant. One day the Doctor visits them by accident and they show him around. When they fall asleep on a bench, they are suddenly back in the Tardis and find out that they all had the same dream. Something is wrong in the Tardis but before they can find out what, they are back in the village. They flip back and forth between the Tardis and they don't know what is real anymore. Suddenly there is someone else in the Tardis who call himself the Dream Lord. He tells them that they have to decide which world is the real one or they die. In the Tardis, they are falling into a cold sun and start to freeze to death and in the village they are attacked by the old people who are aliens. It's up to Amy to choose which world is the dream and when Rory dies in the village, she knows how to decide. Are they in the real world now?
This is a great episode for the relationship between Amy, Rory and the Doctor. Here, Amy has to decide whom her heart belongs to and in the end she chooses Rory. That doesn't mean she won't flirt with the Doctor anymore but now we know who her true love is. The story is quite interesting because the Doctor and his companions have to find out what the real world is and what the dream and that is not an easy thing to decide. When you see that the old people in the village are aliens, that's a bit strange but it fits into the world of Doctor Who. This eye thing in their mouths is just a bit gross. I think the explanation in the end, that the Dream Lord was no one else as the Doctor is interesting. It has to be some of his darker parts which he normally prevents to bubble up. In this episode we can see that there is more to the Doctor than the eye can see, especially from his dark side which he doesn't show often.

Season 5 Episode 6: The Vampires of Venice
Summary:
The Doctor tells Rory that Amy has tried to seduce him, which makes Rory quite angry but then the Doctor takes him and Amy back in time to Venice. Shortly after their arrival, they witness a strange scene with a man who searches for his daughter in a bunch of pale girls. Interested, the Doctor runs off and starts to investigate what happens in Venice. Amy wants to help by going into the school but Rory is against it. As it is the only chance to find out what is going on, Rory can't say anything anymore and Amy goes into the school of Rosanna Calvierri. She opens a trap door for Rory and the Doctor but is taken to an underground room shortly afterwards by Rosanna and the girls. They want to turn her into one of them and now Amy know that they aren't facing vampires but aliens. Rosanna starts the transformation of Venice into a world under the ocean to give her family a new home. Can the Doctor stop her and save the people of Venice?
This is the first episode in which Rory travels with Amy and the Doctor and Amy isn't very happy about it first. Rory as addition in the Tardis brings some new conflicts with him because there is this connection between Amy and the Doctor and the fact that Amy and Rory are engaged. This leads to some great moments in this episode especially when the Doctor comes out of Rory's cake instead of a stripper. Rory also gives the Doctor some things to think about when he tells him that he makes people dangerous to themselves because they want to impress the Doctor. The story with the vampires is interesting but maybe not one of the best in the history of Doctor Who. It gives us some interesting facts about the cracks and it mentions the Silence again. "The Vampires of Venice" is a fun story with creepy alien fish and some tiles for the big puzzle.

Season 5 Episode 1: The Eleventh Hour
Summary:
After his regeneration the Eleventh Doctor crashes with his Tardis in a garden. There he meets Amelia Pond, who has a scary crack in her wall. It seems like prisoner zero has escaped through the crack but the Doctor is able to close it. When he wants to investigate a strange door in Amelia's house, he gets distracted by noises from the Tardis and flies away with it after he has promised Amelia that he will be back in five minutes. The Doctor returns to the house with a rebuilding Tardis but he has been away twelve years and Amelia is now a grown woman and calls herself Amy. Together they find out that prisoner zero has been in the house all the time and now they try to catch him. Rory, Amy's boyfriend, tells them that he has seen coma patients all over the village and when an alien ship arrives the Doctor tries everything to help them detect the prisoner, which isn't that easy. When the aliens can't find the prisoner, they threaten to destroy the whole planet. With help from Amy and Rory, the Doctor is able to catch the alien. He gets a signal from the Tardis that she is ready and takes her for a ride but will he come back for Amy?
I think this episode is a great start for Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor because it has so much action in it and it's just fun to watch how the Doctor tries to find himself and at the same time tries to save the earth from the aliens who want to destroy it. The scenes with little Amelia at the beginning are just brilliant when they sit in the kitchen and the Doctor tries to find out what his favourite food is. I just love the interaction between them and it's nice to see little Amelia again from time to time. Amy is just brilliant when she tries to convince the Doctor that she's a police woman but she's a kissogram instead. In this episode, Rory seems to be a bit dumb but I'm glad that that changes later. The scene where we see all the other incarnations of the Doctor is brilliant and a great reminder who has been there before. "The Eleventh Hour" is a great beginning for a new series and a great start for the Matt Smith era.

I think this is a really cool Wholock trailer, which was made by 0RainbowProductions.
