Last Updated

Aug 24, 2022

How to Play

  • Name all the one-word episode and story titles in all of tv’s Doctor Who, from the first season in 1963 through to 2021.

    Includes real words, invented nouns and compound word titles (eg: Spacewar).
    (Spacewar is not an answer!)

    Does not include titles preceded by ‘The’ or ‘A’ (so ‘The Snowmen’ wouldn’t count).

level 1

But how did Clara come to that word?

Brevity.

How would «Pond» summarize the urgency of the situation?

Foreshadowing.

level 1

What i just thought of….. this is the second time a pond has been important at the start of a new companion. The Duck pond with no ducks and a frozen pond when everything else has thawed. Doesn’t mean anything but is kinda funny.

level 2

Of course it means something. It means Moffat is trying to use simple symbols to try to draw connections in lieu of actual themes.

level 1

I kinda took it as since there are multiples of her throughout history and they seem to be linked in at least a small way, that she just «knew». Not much of an answer, I know.

level 2

That’s about what I think.

I just hope Moffat doesn’t make us watch her die every single episode this season. That’s a real good way to make us completely ignore the death of what otherwise seems an awesome character played very decently.

level 2

Agreed….don’t forget, she uses the same line at the end from Asylum, even though it makes no actual sense in this episode (why should the doctor run?) There is definitely some awareness shared between the Claras.

level 1

I think that the clue to why she used «pond» was summed up well by Madame Vastra when she said (paraphrasing) «… and if luck and the universe is with you …»

Clara is tied to something larger, so while she may have come up with other words, she was compelled to use «pond» by something outside of herself.

IOW, she didn’t know. She was simply fated to use pond.

level 1

Because the mystery is in the pond however just «mystery» would be too nonspecific.

level 1

The Doctor answered this one in his little ‘talking to himself’ bit: Pond was something new. He didn’t know about the pond. I think Clara picked up that he liked puzzles, so she handed him something that would be likely to make him get off his cloud and demand an explanation.

Now, as to the ginormous coincidence that word was whacking him over the head with, well… there might be an actual explanation, or the universe might just be trying to get his attention.

level 1

I literally facepalmed at Pond, it was predictable and stupid all at once. I am also pretty annoyed we dont get past clara as the companion, would be nice to have a companion not from present time England for once in the new show.

level 1

She read the script.

Let’s be honest here: The only reason for the entire idiocy which is the «One Word Test» is so that she can say «Pond» and we can have a dramatic-but-pointless reaction. It’s a contrived reaction built atop a contrived moment built atop a contrived scenario. It’s just another example of the incredibly lazy scriptwriting which dominated this episode (and which has also dominated the last several Moffat-penned scripts).

level 1

Simply put: The plot says so.

level 1

I’m thinking that she is a very receptive person to other people’s motivations. So she may or may not have a «connection» to the Doctor via the other versions of herself, but she knew what kind of person he was only after meeting him once, which is why it was so intriguing that she described him as «man». So, she chose a word that piqued his curiosity and gave him the answer all at once: «pond».

Edited for clarity!

level 2

I agree with this. Definitely some universe/alternate self bleeding threw but at it’s base, she was sparking his curiosity. Not only is it relavent to the situation, but as a response to impending danger and urgent need, pond is exactly the opposite answer one should give, done on purpose to draw him in.

…that’s what you were saying, right?

level 2

Her tombstone said her full name was Clara Oswin Oswald -_-;
