Doctor Who (2023– )
1/10
Waste of time
11 May 2024
I really did give this a chance but my God it was bad.

Space babies:
  • the CGI on the "baby's" was absolutely horrific, I've been better from films back in 2002.


  • The acting was terrible in this as well, nothing about anyone's performance shouted "Doctor Who".


  • space babies pretty much stole parts of 2005's "End of the World" (such as seeing the earth in the further from space and the doctor using sonic screwdriver on phone so companion can ring mother".


  • the story was so weak in this one as well, what an incredible dull episode.


The Devil's Chord:

  • this episode had so much potential by as expected it fell flat. The acting was slight better but again, nothing about ncuti's or Millie's performance shouted "Doctor and companion"


  • Jinx Monsoon, although does naturally look terrifying, didn't do well in this part. There was far too much overacting which was extremely off putting.


  • the story line was pretty forgettable and of course they have to mention pronouns.


  • The worst thing about the episode was the totally unnecessary musical number at the end, what was the point of that? When you're trying to have a "serious" story line and you have this at the end it throws the story off completely.


  • the only thing I did enjoy in this episode was the music (not including the off putting musical at the end) Murray gold is a great composer and he deserves some props, also the costumes were better in this one compared to the first one.


  • Overall, this is not Doctor Who anymore just a cheap imitation.
