Warning! This article contains spoilers for Doctor Who’s 60th anniversary special, Wild Blue Yonder.

If you haven’t yet seen the Fourteenth Doctor and Donna Noble’s second exciting adventure together, watch the episode now before returning back here to read some fan reactions…

“My arms are too long…”

The Doctor and Donna land in a strange ship on the very edge of the universe, ending up with no TARDIS, no sonic screwdriver and no way out. In the most desperate fight of their lives, they try to figure out an escape - and encounter the terrifying Not-Things, a robot called Jimbo and the corpse of the ship’s captain along the way!

This mysterious episode drove fans wild! Here are our favourite reactions to Wild Blue Yonder…

Before the TARDIS takes them to the edge of creation, The Doctor and Donna crash-land in 1666. They meet a certain polymath with a fondness for apples – Isaac Newton – and somehow manage to make their mark on the laws of physics. What did fans think of the episode’s introduction?
