Occasionally, I find myself getting irrationally angry that, Moffat's best efforts at creating closed loops that make sense notwithstanding, mostly DW is all like "yeah time and space are YUUUGE but also still centered around you the viewer's timeline and also Great Britain"

Time Bandits had a similar vibe. They had a map to all of time and space and they were using it to steal from people! "Right, the Middle Ages. Five hundred years before the man we robbed was even born. Ha ha! Try that one in a court of law!"
