The Doctor: This whole world is swimming in Wi-Fi. We’re living in a Wi-Fi soup! Suppose something got inside it. Suppose there was something living in the Wi-Fi, harvesting human minds, extracting them. Imagine that. Human souls trapped like flies in the World Wide Web, stuck for ever, crying out for help.
Clara Oswin: Isn’t that basically Twitter?
“The Bells of Saint John” was the premiere of the second half of Series 7 (2013). It features the Eleventh Doctor (played by Matt Smith) and the modern-day version of Clara Oswald (played by Jenna Coleman).
The dialogue highlights the Doctor’s typical manic energy and Clara’s sharp, sarcastic wit.
In the episode, they face off against the Great Intelligence, which is using a sinister Wi-Fi signal to “upload” human consciousness into a data cloud.
Clara’s quip about Twitter being a trap for human souls still rings pretty true today!
Most people are counting down to Santa’s arrival I’m counting down to #DoctorWhoXmas Only 23 more days! #Whovians
