Obviamente este tipo necesita un decorador mejor y una ama de llaves decente ...¿ quién mantiene un viejo neumático y los tubos en su sala?

This guy obviously needs a better decorator and a decent housekeeper.....who keeps an old tire and a jungle gym in his living room?

The "Doctor" is thinking out aloud: "Now, let's see....I have to know the exact mass, and density of the Emiracales ruby in order to calculate the effects of time and space on this jewel when I take it into the Tardis! No, wait a minute, it is made from a new substance called zirconium sulphate which is weightless, and so is unaffected by time and space, but how can I remove it without sounding the alarm! Ah, of course...I have to change the substance into a gas!"

El 'doctor' está pensando en voz alta: "¡Bueno, vamos a ver! ¡Tengo que saber la masa atómica exacta y la densidad del rubí "Emiracales" para calcular los efectos del tiempo y el espacio en esta joya cuando la llevo en la máquina del tiempo, el 'Tardis'! ¡No, espera un momento, esta hecho de una nueva sustancia que se llama sulfato de circonio que es ingrávido y por eso no se ve afectado por el tiempo y el espacio, pero ¿cómo puedo quitarla sin hacer sonar la alarma? ¡Ah, por supuesto....tengo que convertir la sustancia en un gas!"

The doctor in Dr Who is a Time Lord and a Doctor of Science but he is not a trained Medical doctor, which is why I have not used the word médico in this context, but doctor!

Here is some interesting information about Zirconium: enter link description here

Corrijan mi español si es necesario, por favor smile

Sé que nuestros hijos han visto Dr. Who, pero yo no, porque la verdad es que es muy difícil convencer a mi esposa ver tal película – no es que rechaza las de ciencia ficción, sino solo las que incluye viajar en el tiempo, lo que siempre la confunde- así que no tengo ni idea de lo que sucede en esta foto.

I know that our children have watched Dr. Who, but I haven’t, because the truth is that it is very difficult to convince my wife to watch such a film- it is not that she rejects science fiction movies, rather only those that include time travel, which always confuses her- as such I have no clue what is happening in this photo.

I know I could have just made something up about the picture, but I wanted to test my ability to write what I wrote. :) - bosquederoble, Sep 30, 2017
You could use the answer the 11th Doctor always gives when confusing chronological paradoxes seem unavoidable. He just dismisses them as "timey-wimey stuff" and moves on. - jellonz, Sep 30, 2017
Excelente :) - 00376109, Oct 1, 2017
Gracias, Coffeelate. :) - bosquederoble, Oct 1, 2017

The War Doctor is standing near the red light. El Doctor de la Guerra (El Guerrero) está de pie cerca de la luz roja.

what ids a war doctor? Makes no sense to me - 006595c6, Sep 30, 2017
That's a character from Doctor Who on bbc. - NKM1974, Sep 30, 2017
Don't you mean a 'War Lord " We call them War lords - FELIZ77, Sep 30, 2017
...in the U.K.! ;) - FELIZ77, Sep 30, 2017
No mistake Feliz. The War Doctor was the 50th anniversary special's incarnation of Doctor Who, responsible for ending the time war. Yeah, that probably made me sound a bit nerdy, but hey, I love Doctor Who :) - jellonz, Sep 30, 2017

Jenna Louise Coleman desempeña el papel de Clara Oswald en este episodio. Es mi favorita compañera favorita del Doctor (y es muy bonita).

Jenna Louise Coleman plays the role of Clara Oswald in this episode. She is my favourite companion of the Doctor (and she is very pretty).

I agree, She is my favourite companion, too She is very hot, too! :) - FELIZ77, Sep 30, 2017
:) I think "mi compañera favorita" sounds more natural. - 00376109, Oct 1, 2017
Yep, I agree Coffee, but I wasn't sure if that would be ambiguous - as in leaving open the interpretation that it was the Doctor's favorite companion, not mine. Regardless, I'll edit. Gracias. - jellonz, Oct 1, 2017
I know Feliz. She is surely one of the prettiest women on the planet ... or any planet :) - jellonz, Oct 1, 2017
I put a pic of her in la Palabra del Dia :) It doesn't really show off her true beauty ... but it had Daleks in it :) - jellonz, Oct 1, 2017

Debo confesar que no tengo la menor idea de esta película, ni de este doctor, pero creo que debe ser muy interesante.

I must confess that I have no idea of this film, or this doctor, but I think it must be very interesting.

I don't know whether it is the deficiency of the hungarian film distribution or my mistake. - porcupine7, Sep 30, 2017
