Doctor Who: The Power of the Doctor (2022)
Messy but brilliant
It might just be my expectations at this point were extremely low, but that was the best of Chibnall's run.
Yes - the plot doesn't make any sense, there are plot holes you could drive a train through, and some of the lines sound as if they were read off a cue card.
But the spectacle of the thing more than makes up for it - throwing just about everything at the screen in the hope something sticks. - just don't spend any time trying to work out what's happening.
Massive fan service - if you aren't familiar with Classic Who, there will be moments of pure bafflement as old characters pop up with no explanation.
And finally, the best regeneration of NuWho.
LOL: Last One Laughing Australia (2020)
We keep being told it's funny.
We keep being told that the outlandish antics and bizarre behaviour is funny by the host, but this is just ten people behaving increasingly like five year olds craving attention.
Doctor Who: Resolution (2019)
Resolution Revolution
I really don't understand the negativity of this episode.
The series had been a bit hit and miss, but despite a ham-fisted meeting between Ryan and his dad this was a top quality episode.
Doctor Who: Demons of the Punjab (2018)
Excellent historical episode
Full marks to the makers of Doctor Who for being brave enough to go for an almost purely historical adventure. Minus one for the addition of slightly naff aliens.
"Where is the sci-fi?" ask unobservant people who miss the bit with the time travelling phone box that's bigger on the inside.
