We have a great Cornish Pasty restaurant here in Las Vegas. Really good!

[@Simon-xc5oy]

Yes, sort of. Its a half pie. A circle of pastry folded over in two stuffed with meat and potato or whatever you want. Cornwall is famous for its " Cornish Pasties"

[@ValiantWrestling]

A pasty is a baked pastry, a traditional variety of which is particularly associated with Cornwall, South West England, but has spread all over the British Isles, and elsewhere through the Cornish diaspora.

[@mekonta]

Had a pasty in Tintagel, Cornwall. It was as big as my head and had to be eaten in three instalments over two days. You could see them being made from the outside through the shop window. None of your crappy, measly Greggs ingredients, the chunks of meat going in them were golf ball size, chopped with a meat cleaver! Boy, I was stuffed!

[@SpideyVids]

A pasty is generally a meat filling that is baked inside dough. The Cornish pasty is a good example

[@kellynch]

It sounds like an empanada. I like empanadas.

[@ericpode6095]

Not just meat. Usually has slices of potato and pieces of vegetables as well.

[@markeastwood74]

I once heard that the really traditional ones were meat at one end and fruit at the other. Giving hungry miners dinner and dessert. 😋 Sounds great, but Doctor Who does really did into the important aspects of the story these days. They probably just got the from Greggs. Although, Greggs pasties are pretty good. I fancy a pasty.

You don't what a pasty is?! Holy cow, that's unfortunate. They are a superb lunch: meat, potatoes and other vegetables with some pepper, wrapped in pastry and cooked to a golden finish. Serve hot or cold (better hot). They were very popular with miners and you never eat the knot of pastry at the end because that's where you hold it and your hands could be laced with arsenic from the mining. Cornwall has the best pasties and Kernow King has a song devoted to them: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIWoo6GDerllnqM

@@evie._.lake20 Hi. Have you read any Stephen King? In a few of his stories he has characters who are authors, and in at least one of them he talks about the sense of humour that authors have and why it often lands them in trouble. I'm an author, and like most of my lot I laugh at odd things. To me, having reached a somewhat old age, the idea of someone not knowing what a pasty is sounds like something from a comedy sketch (Joss Whedon did it a few times in Buffy, usually with Giles hitting the Trans-Atlantic language barrier). In the end, of course, you can't explain a sense of humour. But I just wanted to thank Bowlestrek for brightening up my day.

[@brianpengelly4653]

A pasty is a traditional food from Cornwall in the far south west of the UK. Traditionally it consisted of meat, potatoes and turnip cut into small chunks and baked inside pastry for Cornish tin miners. It had a crimped crust that the miners could hold with dirty hands while eating the rest. The crust was then discarded. Also known locally as an 'oggy', a Cornish pasty is a culinary delight and should not be confused with the rubbish they serve up north masquerading as pasties. Next week a description of Stargazey pie

Apasty is a type of British pastry, with a variety of fillings. Often, the fillings are meat-based. The most famous type of pasty is the Cornish pasty.

[@michaelfields7088]

The ratings went up a little on this one. I think because Fruity Gatwa was barely in it.

[@Simon-xc5oy]

It was more like the Football was on before it and people hung around, and also some think its the iplayer viewers deciding to watch it live instead. Wonder how many it will get on iplayer this week...

[@markeastwood74]

Except they wouldn't have known that at the start. It's just a little light relief for anyone still suffering through. 🙄🙏

[@markjones-gu2fj]

@@Simon-xc5oy Correct pubs were showing the football and left the TV on BBC 1 that counts as viewers .

[@CyberSlammer2024]

Viewing figures can't take account of what is in the story because you wouldn't know until you had watched it. More likely to be affected by what else is on television and how good the week before was making people watch the following week

[@charg1nmalaz0r51]

The viewing figure overnights are more than likely based on the previous episode and the word of mouth that one got. So imo the fact bang got the lowest figures in doctor who history are from the devils chord and this weeks is based on bang. Which makes sense tbh because bang was the better of the episodes.

[@glorfification]

73 yards - is that how far Russell Davies and Gatwa need to stay away from schools?

[@mtsg3761]

Bowlestrek can join those two Muppets in that restraining order, I'd be terrified hearing this bloke's ranting screams near a school

[@wildwomanofthewoods]

A pasty is like a half moon pastry filled with meat filling. Like a pie or sausage roll but shaped differently.

[@hinduismwithpremananddasbhagat]

This episode kept me watching ... and then left me like all the others: are you kidding me? It was a mystery with no clear solution. We still don't know where the Doctor went. We don't really get what was going on. It was sad. All build-up and then a poopy ending.

[@willpower8061]

Im confused, at what point was this a Dr Who episode? Oh..its not..we have Proffesor Wigglybitz

[@easydrive3662]

Actually the best thing about this episode was the fact the dr was hardly in it! Haha

[@markmerryweather9908]

I came here from another KZbinr who was dissing you badly - I wanted to see for myself. Why the continuous shouting? Dude, take a chill pill, relax, go outside, and go to the Dollar Tree deli section and buy yourself a Pasty - you won't regret it.

I believe some aspects of this were taken from tennents era when the master ran for office. (Just little concepts that were repeated).

[@hinduismwithpremananddasbhagat]

Folks say Millie's acting was outstanding. How can they tell? She only had like 3 emotions for the whole thing. I'm being serious here. There was no character growth or depth of character, just shock and confusion and some laughter. What she ALWAYS does.

[@evie._.lake20]

I agree with this. At least she’s better than “The Fam”

[@demetriushughes4238]

Just don’t watch this show anymore. Problem solved.

[@evie._.lake20]

Iconic comment 🙌🏻

[@darrenbradleytwin]

I don't agree with a lot he says but how else is he supposed to gauge if there has been an improvement or decline in script writing, acting and casting? I'd rather hear him giving first-hand opinions rather than second-hand opinions from what he's heard from other people, even if I don't agree with some of the stuff he says.

[@GnrMilligan]

As an old fella, I haven't really watched Dr Who since the best Doctor ( Baker. Obviously! ) left. I have dipped in now and then but although some have been OK it was the nostalgia I missed. And it is unfair to even expect a 50 year old show to still feel the same as when I was a child. But! At least The Whoniverse can still offer me entertainment. By watching your videos and keeping me up to date. Thanks for taking that bullet for us all!

[@WilloftheFans]

Oh Merry Christmas Will. Finish our stream about this episode and now the guy who set me on this path to reality is back to cripple it too!

[@robinrice5488]

Absolutely brilliant Bowlestrek. Traditional Cornish pasty is best

[@theonetheonlyfinno]

Kinda weird how your getting annoyed at British food being in a British show. Also, if your getting so worked up and your hate the show so much then why are you still watching it?

[@evie._.lake20]

My point exactly

[@darrenbradleytwin]

Ah, but do you like pasties?

[@ChazaMazza_]

this 7 minute video is the reason im happy i found the do not recommend video button

[@hinduismwithpremananddasbhagat]

When are we going to get a legit costume for the Doctor? Always changing and looking like anyone on the street, from earth, just kills so much of the character's mystery. Let's imagine Tom Baker where one week he had a scarf, one week he didn't, one week he wore jeans and a t-shirt, one week he wore a rain coat, one week he wore a hat, and how that would have effected the character and became the character.

[@jonesy7475]

This video gets worse if you accidentally watch it again, worse to the point it’s borderline hilarious.

[@GaiusGW]

Nah man. I would say this has been the best doctor who episode in 7 years. The only problem is it didn't have a timey wimey explanation. At least it has not yet. Maybe by the end when we find out who the one who waits is and whether or not she is related to him somehow or might be the one who waits herself and maybe that old lady was just a variation of the one who waits. Maybe it all ties in and will explain this. Definitely left some open-endedness here which I don't mind as long as it's closed in an arc. But you're going way too hard on an episode that has the right amount of creep factor that we haven't had in a very long time

[@PaulusAlone]

I agree that this was the best episode of this reboot which had moments of the good older Doctor Who back. It still left too much open as you say but at least this was a story. Unfortunately it was partly better because Ncuti Gatwa was barely in it and when he was he was surprisingly toned down and more normal acting which I actually liked.

[@ItsJustLuke656]

Nice to see someone was thinking the same I was. It reminds me a bit of midnight, the less we know about the monster the better. I do think we could have gotten some sort of explanation as to how it might be a time loop that's been broken but sometimes less is better.

[@PaulusAlone]

@@ItsJustLuke656 - Hopefully it gets explained with the whole Ruby Sunday mystery in the future?

[@GaiusGW]

Hopefully not just explained but a good explanation that does not involve the message

[@Jack-Peters99]

You're all being so ridiculous. This is coming from someone that hated chibbs entire era, and someone who hates 'woke culture'. The episodes have actually been pretty decent, stop being so bored and tune in to something else if you don't like it. It's what I did for the entire Jodie era. People are so fucking petulant.

[@evie._.lake20]

Agreed

[@nessiesearcher]

I think a pasty is a small meat filled pie. They taste better than they sound.

[@luckybag6814]

Taste better than they sound? I’ve never heard one singing.

[@ZarbiDW]

Not trying to hate, but why are you still watching every episode and putting time in to make individual reviews for each video. Ive watched a couple of your reviews and it feels like your just saying the same thing every time. Im honestly not sure why you bother.

[@Mazz3D]

Troll and a half. Hit the dislike button.

[@mtsg3761]

[@aster4jaden]

This is all I need for Doctor Who.

[@SoulSloth147]

The episode doesnt even make sence Ruby becomes the old woman and trlls her ypunger delf to not look at her. So, if she never looked ay her then she would never become the old woman. Resulting in this episode being the grandfather paradox or someone else being the old woman throughout the episode. Also, the doctor needs to look where he's going. Two episodes in a row have a plot revolving around him not looking where his feet are.

[@vskane]

Usually chicken, ground pork or beef seasoned and wrapped in shortcrust pastry. Think of a calzone - but smaller and with pastry instead of bread. They’re actually really good.

One of the best replies t bowelstrek Ive ever seen

It would be nice to see some counter arguments to counter his points rather than the usual ad hominem. Spiteful comments won't convince him to see how good you think the show is or how wrong he may be as you explain the better aspects of the show. All I keep seeing is people saying, he's doing this for money, or he lives in his mother's basement or making fun that his beloved pet dog is dead and deserved to die, even wishing death upon him... all over disagreeable opinions about a fictional television show.

[@IsaacWhittakerDakin]

[@yetanotherspuart3993]

Why did the first female doctor play by Jodie Whitaker return?

[@Erekose2023]

Sometimes I get close to cracking and spamming a comment section on a Dr Who rel;ated KZbin channel. But.. I manage to hold the urge in, by watching actual Doctor Who episodes, and reinforcing those vague memories I have of seeing the exterior and interior of the TARDIS for the very very first time, and the joys of using salt and pepper pots as Daleks. (Yepo, showing my age there I guess). -------------------- "That, my boy, is the lower RAM allocation. it's been a part of my Acorn Atom since I built it" Question what does that comment say about how my Acorn Atom came into being? And now apply that answer to the remark concering the Space Time detector. ---------------------

[@anthonywarwood6817]

Do you actually like Dr Who ? If not (judging by your “reviews”) why watch ?!?!

[@darrenbradleytwin]

Judging by his past videos of Dr Who DVD reviews I'm pretty sure he likes the show but doesn't like what's being done to it. Speaking of judging, how else is one to judge if the show is improving or declining?

[@TaeSunWoo]

He’s farming hate views and this show he “hates” is how he makes money. Lmao sad really
