Majorca: Difference between revisions

'''Majorca''' was a [[Spain|Spanish]] island in the [[Mediterranean Sea]] frequented by tourists. The [[Eleventh Doctor]] tried unsuccessfully to get [[Amy Pond]] and [[Rory Williams]] to Majorca on a few occasions ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Hypothetical Gentleman (comic story)|Hypothetical Gentleman]]'') before finally landing them there. Their experience of the island was less than ideal, fraught with bad emulations of [[English]] food and tourist brochures that vastly exaggerated the island's charms. Though Rory tried to accentuate the positive of the place, Amy was unshakeably unimpressed. While waiting in the airport for a flight back to [[England]], the couple encountered Lady [[Christina de Souza]] and were subsequently rescued from their long stay in the airport lounge by the Doctor. Hearing of how disappointing Majorca had proved to be, the Doctor offered a replacement holiday for the couple on the luxury starliner, ''[[Excelsis]]''. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Eye of Ashaya (comic story)|The Eye of Ashaya]]'') The Eleventh Doctor speculated that the [[Prison ship (The God Complex)|prison ship]] recreating a [[1980s]] [[hotel]] was a mock up made to look like [[Earth]] by [[colonist]]s "recreating a bit of home". The Doctor compared it to how English expats opened English [[pub]]s in Majorca.
