Then , the monster depart targeting only the Doctor ’s words , and overtook him so that Ten was the one echoing the words allow for Sky ’s mouth .
The giant identified the Tenth Doctor ’s voice as the most important in the room , which is why it took his .
The other passenger falsely believed the monster had somehow passed from Sky to the Doctor , and they tried to chuck out him from the ship , so the radiation alfresco would end the creature ’s life history .

Althoughit ’s possible to see the giant in " The Well"if you ’re skilled with the pause button , it ’s still jolly much unseeable for the sake of the fib .

No one had ever been to that part of the major planet before , and the roundabout way had only happened out of sheer necessity .
