    They may be few enough in number that they don't need
    much structure. Most of Gallifrey's inhabitants seemed to
    live outside the Citadel, or at least that was my
    impression.

    We've never been shown the existence of any cities on Gallifrey outside
    of the Citadel.

    Remember the Outsiders, from "The Invasion of Time"?


    They did not live in cities. They lived in the forest and they were fugitives from the Citadel.

    I never said anything about cities. That was just your
    own criterion.

    Given that there were no children among them
    they would not have lasted more than a generation.

    What makes you so sure none of them had children? We
    didn't see all of them.

    I guess my head canon ends a little earlier than that. I
    did love "Heaven Sent," though, as a one-off. That was a
    fine hour of TV, well-crafted and well-acted.


    Heaven Sent/ Hell Bent.

    What about them?

    I saw both, but "Hell Bent" didn't impress me as much as
    "Heaven Sent." The latter was incredibly written and
    presented, IMO, as well as with Capaldi's usual fine
    acting.

    There are back to back.

    They are back to back episodes, and part of the same narrative,
    but that doesn't mean one episode can't be better than the other.
