Yeah it was a lame steel zombies threat, badly executed. It was nonsensical and the ending was crap. And the brigade er saving the daughter was lane as well. |

I thought the ending was really good. Neither the Doctor nor Clara get what they want. Both are unhappy but think the other is happy so don't say what they're actually thinking. The Doctor's reaction to not finding Gallifrey was really sad  The ending of the Cybermen part was a bit hokey though. |

So the Mistress' only strength is that nobody seems willing to actually do anything (useful) to restrain or prevent her from swanning about the place killing people, and her only weaknesses are deus ex machina that make the whole thing fall down at once? Was the Master always like that? |

Returning characters are the bane of Moffat's Who. The universe just keeps on getting smaller. |

I got through most of the old series blogs, but ran out of steam as I didn't know a lot of the episodes, so it was tricky to work out what was going on at times. I did enjoy it in the main, so hopefully now they are doing the series that I know well, it'll be even more enjoyable to follow along

Hmm, sure I saw some 'War Machines' from an old Hartnell episode. I predict sci-fi social commentary on hunter-drone ethics, with evil-AI fun, or something. |

I think he should be less superhero and more guiding hand to get the best out of those around him. |

He tends to have become far too grandstandy. But then I guess in many ways he was in the classic series but now I think they do more spectacular set pieces. The guitar bit is worrying.. |

I actually really liked the trailer. He looks more confident, after spending most of the last series being mostly confused until Clara saved the day. |
