Day 218: The Mind Robber Episode 4

The ending to this episode is that Jamie and Zoe are being crushed by a book, as the Doctor is being offered to become the Master of the Land of Fiction. Given later events within this story, I've read the ending with respect to Jamie and Zoe as them becoming fictional which is the most marvellous conceit behind this entire story. It's based around fictional characters, and yet it ignores the fact that the Doctor himself is fictional, showing us fictions within fictions and making the audience think about what the very nature of fiction is. Do fictional characters realise that they're fictional, for instance. The majority f those whom we encounter here seem aware of a higher power that controls their thoughts and actions, but they don't know exactly why. This entire piece is absurd, and wonderfully so, and it's about to get a whole lot odder
