Series 10 - Episode 6 Discussion

[Betty]

Gillymac,thanks for the reality check! I would love to see medical studies of people's brains "on stories." I think that fantasy has a sickening addictive affect on some people...certainly on me...to the point where I get so worried about harry and ruth, for instance, that I start ignoring my own family. Or I start wanting Nicola Walker and Peter Firth to get together, when N.W. already has a husband and child of her own, and it would be terrible if a silly tv show broke up somebody's family. I think that the capacity to build a world inside of one's own waking mind is an amazing gift, but potentially so harmful if you let it get out of proportion.
