Introducing Empress of the Racnoss - Doctor Who - The Runaway Bride - BBC

[@Starbat88]

The actress playing the empress of the Racnoss is clearly having a lot of fun.

[@lumberluc]

No wonder ladies hate spiders, their competition for attention.

[@uppercutgrandma4425]

She's a definitely at a Power Ranger bad guy skillset actress.

[@thegrandmuftiofwakanda]

...unlike the audience.

[@potsy5263]

Oof

2:21 "Only a mad man talks to thin air, trust me you don't want to make me mad"

[@EmeraldWings90]

The Empress was clearly alone a bit too long - evidenced by the fact that she's both totally insane and that she knows human culture quite a bit. Seriously, what did she do for four billion years???

[@darudesandstrom1067]

The costume/model for the Racnoss may seriously be the best prop in the show’s history. Such great scale and design. Not practical for movement but it looks awesome. Can’t really think of a better practical creature/enemy

Love that part. Later when Matt Smith is the Doctor..... Dinosaurs on a spaceship

[@weldonwin]

Silurians: We we a joke to you?

[@Milamberinx]

Yeah, when you drill a hole in Wales you find dinosaurs, but none of them wanted to live under London, the rent's just too high.

SpringTrap Remains same here.

[@lumberluc]

We've seen worse. Absorbing man, cloning army's attempts, Daleks, but Weeping Angels take the cake.

[@julianbaxter2403]

Speaking of the Angels, the tune played from 1:22 - 1:47 is played in the Weeping Angel Episode "Flesh And Stone" when Doctor Opens up the Door revealing the Forest.

[@lazymazza8505]

I fucking hate spiders

[@Daniel-rd6st]

Its a close competition between the weeping angles and the silence for me

It's Rick Riordan

When doctor who was worth a watch.

[@dhooth]

I loved the Empress. There's something about the way she talks. She sounds unintelligent, but really cool at the same time.

[@kennethmelo6336]

Her design is cool. It looks like something out of Diablo.

[@weldonwin]

As the doctor said, they ate whole planets. They consume everything and strip whole galaxies bare

[@SP-ny1fk]

I swear she was crawling up my kitchen wall just this morning

[@stephenbyrne2170]

But she shouldn't even exist. The fledgling empires, including the Time-Lords slaughtered the Racnoss.

“ARE YOU ENJOYING THIS!?” Er, yeah, just a lil bit.

So twinkle twinkle little star, there’s a spider where you are, down below the earth we go, we see some hostile lizard people. Up above the earth so high, the moon is a dragon egg in the sky.
