Re: Doctor Who S01E02 The Devil's Chord

The True loon tried to make us learn a lesson:

 
Gibson wants Gatwa to take her to see the Beatles recording their first
album at Abbey Road, and the Beatles are made to look like morons that
have no idea how to write good music. Then Cilla Black starts singing
into a U47 turned sideways with the diaphragm facing away from her
mouth. If the U47 was the multi-pattern version that lets you select a
figure 8 polar pattern then it wouldn't have picked up a single thing
she was singing if that was the pattern set. Was this deliberate in
order to demean Cilla Black or a production error?

If you’re going to point out historical mistakes, there’s a much,
much bigger one than minor details technical about the recording
equipment.

If that was London in early 1963, then why wasn’t there snow
piled up on the ground everywhere? This was the worst winter
of the 20th century, but no sign of that in the episode!

Even if you try to blame it on Maestro changing history, that
just opens up more problems. As the Doctor explains to Ruby,
he lived through the original version of this time. He should’ve been
surprised and confused when he stepped out of the TARDIS and
found the wrong weather. And he definitely shouldn’t’ve let
Ruby go out in clothes more suitable for summer than a cold
February.

Those would’ve been genuine, serious complaints about the
episode. But instead you ignore them silly, irrelevant details. You
really need to learn to look beyond your own personal obsessions!
