KingRocketman II Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I thought it was pretty poor. Like a middling episode of Sarah Jane Investigates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I enjoyed it a lot. As ever, it'll be on a re-watch that I get a proper sense of the quality. Light and fast-moving. Not overly keen in the new sonic or the work-around so that Donna didn't die. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The actual storyline sucked - The Meep is one of those crap villains from Dr Who magazine who isn't very good at being a villain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's the 60th anniversary but I can think of other companions I'd have brought back before her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Wee bits were too star wars for me (mostly aesthetic) but I really enjoyed it. Nathaniel Curtis's cameo was sensational. Some creepy some funny. I liked it. Next week looks great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) Wasn't mad on that one, it was okay but just didn't feel like there was quite enough going on to sustain a 55 minute episode. I liked the stretchy giant monsters and Wilf, though. Edited December 2, 2023 by Bully Wee Villa 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UsedToGoToCentralPark Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Enjoyed that more than last weeks and I thought last week was very good. Looks pretty decent in 4k as well on iplayer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 I found large parts of that pretty boring. It felt like a 30 minute story stretched into 55 minutes. It really only came to life in the last 10-15 minutes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 I liked it, thought it built the tension well. Looking forward to next week. I'm guessing about 90% of the audience won't have seen The Celestial Toymaker. A being far more powerful and wicked than the Doctor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 I think they have quietly dropped the "Celestial" bit of his name... http://www.rsdb.org/slur/celestial 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Anyone who doesn't fancy watching the Celestial Toymaker - well, you should. It's on the iPlayer and is very strange and quite good.

Bully Wee Villa Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) It's shite, IMO. Great idea, terrible execution. My least favourite Hartnell story. Sorry, scottsdad. Also, it's not on the iPlayer, that I can see? Only one of the four episodes actually still exists and they don't seem to have put it on there. There's a fairly new looking animated version on YouTube. Edited December 4, 2023 by Bully Wee Villa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
