Doctor Who: The Zygon Inversion (2015)
Season 9, Episode 8
6/10
Very near the knuckle
8 November 2015
Warning: Spoilers
Once again our protagonist is close to doom, and once again he survives. The recycled cliff-hanger is becoming distinctly repetitive, either he or Clara is at the mercy of whichever adversary and once again, we the viewers are fully aware everyone will be fine. Plenty of comments made on Peter's speech, rightly so it was a commanding moment for the charismatic Capaldi. At times it got lost in its own cleverness, Osgood being one example, we have two once again, just because, and for what conceivable reason? The Political agenda on Who belongs firmly rooted in the past, at times you could hear the writer on his soap box, preaching his views through the Doctor. Strip back the plot, and several parallels will come to light. Time and place, this was neither. Loyal viewers deserve more.
