Going Through Who takes one small step into Doctor Who Series 6 with “Day of the Moon,” the second half of the Silence two-parter. Samuel and Jacob break down the episode’s horror atmosphere, the terrifying concept of the Silence, River Song’s action-hero moments, Canton’s role in the plan, Nixon’s awkward place in the story, and the major cliffhanger surrounding Amy, the little girl, and regeneration.
Episode Highlights:
Samuel and Jacob discuss behind-the-scenes facts, including the episode’s working title, “Look Behind You,” and the Utah filming location for Amy’s chase scene.
The hosts dig into why the Silence are one of Steven Moffat’s most frightening creations, especially because people forget them the moment they look away.
They compare the Silence to the Weeping Angels, debating which monster is scarier conceptually versus visually.
The episode’s big plan against the Silence gets plenty of attention, especially the Doctor using the Apollo 11 broadcast to turn humanity against them.
River Song’s rooftop dive, gunplay, and banter with the Doctor are praised as standout moments.
Samuel and Jacob discuss the emotional weight of River kissing the Doctor for the first time from his perspective.
The episode wraps with the mystery of Amy’s pregnancy scan and the shocking reveal of the little girl beginning to regenerate.
