Doctor Who Flux: Focus Cut

 'Doctor Who Flux: Focus Cut is a series of fan edits by reddit user u/I-believe-I-can-dieusing footage from the official thirteenth series of Doctor Who 'Flux'

Description
A lot of people seem to have been somewhat lost throughout Flux, which I think is in no small part down to how bizarrely and chaotically it's edited. So I made an edit of to make it more streamlined and hopefully easier to follow. I tried to give each episode more of a central focus, moving things around to where they are more relevant. I also cut a fair amount of stuff so that it’s less bogged down in side plots, about 1h20m shorter in total. It’s still a serial, but the goal was to give each episode its own identity. -u/I-believe-I-can-die

CUT/CHANGE LIST
Episode 1: The Halloween Apocalypse (Karvanista Cut): 34 minutes

-Cut the cold open and moved Vinder’s scenes to the start, to make the Flux event more central

-moved Vinder' message to Bel in episode 3 to here

-Cut Williamson scene

-Cut the Swarm scenes

-Cut Claire and the angels

This episode is now focused on the incoming flux, Dan, and the Doctor chasing Karvanista.

Episode 2: War of the Sontarans (Sontaran Cut): 50 minutes

Cut everything from the planet Time. Otherwise this one is pretty coherent already.

Episode 3: Once, Upon Time (Swarm Cut): 41 minutes

-Brought in Time stuff from e2

-moved swarm’s escape from e1 to the cold open

-cut Williamson scene

-cut Bel scenes

-cut gamer yaz scene

Focused on the timestream plot, centralised Swarm and Azure as the villains.

Episode 4: Village of the Angels (Angel Cut): 49 minutes

-cut Bel/Vinder scenes, otherwise this one mostly works as is.

-brought claire angel scene from e1 to start

Episode 5: Survivors of the Flux (Division Cut): 30 minutes

-cut UNIT scenes

-cut angel mindscape scene

-cut grand serpent trying to kill Yaz, Dan, and Jericho subplot

-cut seer scene

-cut Great Wall of China scene

-brought Williamson scene from e1 to start

-moved in Bel looking for Vinder from e4

Most of the 1904 plot is gone because nothing actually happens there until they meet Williamson at the end, but I kept some of the scenes on the boat because those have some nice emotional moments. Primarily focused on the Doctor meeting with Tecteun and learning about division/flux.

Episode 6: The Vanquishers (Three Doctors Cut): 52 minutes

-cut corner shop subplot

-cut azure’s speech about life/death

-cut grand serpent tracking kate and getting captured subplot

Tried to make it more focused on the Doctor and friends saving Earth but it’s very difficult to really change without reshoots (which I obviously cannot do).
