Fortunately I watched the clip first and then read the story. The clip was depressing. The story was more cheery.

Ah, the clip has a lot of weight to it. Many, myself included, class it as the best Doctor Who story ever made.
Edit: a few extras from and about it.

I’m having a lazy Bank Holiday full of painting, modelling (miniatures and not my side hustle as a swimwear queen) all rounded off with lashings of QI:

Ah that is glorious and, I wouldn’t be surprised if it became law in a few states.
Edit: I wish I was able to keep my South Korean Alien Card to roll out at such moments.

Getting around to planning my return to China. A silly process and a few bits of fun. So a smile and nod to the FSB and PSB will make it all entertaining.

I had another request. I’m very popular but I haven’t got the time. I still have millions to burn through.
No time to waste at hobby clubs.
If anyone is interested, feel free. @muth?

i must admit to missing to the Bear Burger when I lived in Shanghai:
7 quarter pounder patties with cheese between all. Obviously with a huge drink and wedges (the closest to British chips they could do.
But then I was in my muscular strength era. Now I fast a week a month.
So ,the silly survival trends mean nothing to me.

It’s funny you mentioned “butt” while incubating chicken eggs…
I was heading up the stairs to my office and a family with a little girl were coming down. As we passed, the mom says to the dad, “guess what?” and I said, “chicken butt!” They looked at me with the WTF look, but the little girl just cracked up. Made my day.

It is one of those long running in-jokes which go back a long way.
My personal favourite is The Infinite Monkey Cage’s ‘When does a strawberry die?’
