Featured review
Awful, contrived, dull and an embarrassing mess
The lowest point of doctor who... This show is a joke, these actors/writers/directors have learnt NOTHING from the mistakes they have made for 2 whole seasons now. How can they not just write a half-decent episode? One of the biggest problems of the show right now is Jodie Whitaker... She has NO chemistry with any of the characters, including Captain Jack, who has had great chemistry with all previous doctors. I am concerned that they are harming his character, I really hope he gets out of this show quickly. None of the actors in this TV show don't seem like they want to be here, they seem like actors, not characters. The only thing these actors are good at doing is being really depressed, blindly following the doctor and generally being useless. There are so many other problems with this show. Graham/Ryan/Yas once again doing nothing throughout the entire episode. Horrible unlikeable side characters. Rehash of old plots. Terrible script writing. Awful special effects. Horrible music (please bring back Murray Gold, although I doubt he want's to be associated with this show anymore). And most importantly, Chris Chibnall - once this guy is gone, doctor who will be one small step in the right direction from this awful direction it is currently going in.
Regarding this episode... there were so many missed opportunities, pointless dialogue, ridiculous use of daleks (You're really using them to spray civilians with water? What's stopping them from just kicking the dalek over? How on earth is this making the country more secure? Why use daleks?) Also, the doctor just left a massive dalek farming factory in the middle of England??!?!? Also, why were there some random daleks inside the Tardis's wormhole vortex thing? Also, why are all the companions so whiny and depressed when the doctor goes away for a bit? Like come on get a grip of yourself, do something different with your life, surely your whole life doesn't revolve around tagging along with the doctor?
This show has declined in quality so much... It's so sad to reflect back on earlier seasons when this show was so good.
