Warning: contains spoilers forDoctor Whoseries 9.
But then, if you prick us, do we not bleed?
It depends on the budget and the timeslot.
Thereve been bodies with a modest yet surprising amount of blood on them, and Jenna Coleman said arse.
The show was cancelled after this series broadcast for various reasons, including concerns over the levels of violence.
The realisation isnt as horrible as the idea.
Youve probably got access to 75% of those right now.
Obviously we dont see anyone being hit, their flesh pummelled and pierced, but the idea is there.
Its here where Doctor Whos horror operates: consider the poacher inPyramids Of Mars, crushed by robotic mummies.
Its a death that poses questions other than How gruesome can we make this?
and Series 9 manages a fair few of those itself.
