LC and I watched the most recent series of "Doctor Who" over the previous couple of weeks. It is a massive improvement over the previous two series, with two very good episodes in there ("War of the Sontarans", and "Village of the Angels"). Oh, and both Yaz and Dan were excellent - in fact, all the secondary characters this time were really good, with the mini-series format really helping with that.
Sadly, despite being a massive improvement isn't the same as it being all that great - too many of the episodes were just a mess of ideas thrown out far too quickly, this incarnation is forever saddled with the manic supply teacher energy of the previous two series, and it doubles down on the terminally awful "Timeless Child" nonsense. But, hey, apart from all that it was good.
I'm rather less happy about the New Year's episode once again featuring Daleks. They've been done to death, and the previous two specials didn't exactly do anything to help. But never mind.
