I liked River until Series 6/7 which completely ruined her

I agree I liked her before then. I hope she's good at Christmas since she's been off-screen for a while.

I thought it was okay, I think it would have worked better as an extended episode rather than a two parter though since the story isn't interesting enough to carry two episodes.

good point.

I take it part 2 is about the Doctor finding Clara

On the plus side though, Missy <3

yea I agree they could've just chucked 20 minutes onto the end where all the issues are resolved, it didn't make me feel like I can't wait to find out what happens next cause predictable

The Toni Basil promo though <3

That was AMAZING :love: :love: :love:

Nah, honestly, I'm glad its a two parter, got tired of having all the plots magically wrapped up in the last 5 minutes of episodes. I thought tonight was a decent opener. Good to see they finally referenced the Shadow Proclimation again :joker:

4.6M watched last night, 2M down on last years premiere.

Not surprising really, I'm getting a bit tired of Moffatt's episodes tbh. They reek of his vanity and Moffatt's too focused on being seen as clever rather than giving us an entertaining episode.

Time for someone else to take over, he has lost his touch.

This is 100% true, David Tenants were simple but entertaining and appealed to kids.

I was obsessed with DW when I was like 7, but I don't know any young kids who like it.

It's a more grown up show now IMO.

The Empty Child did not appeal to kids

Moffatt was better when he only wrote one story a series. His episodes in series 1-4 were the best episodes of Doctor Who but I think his style of writing doesn't work for whole seasons.

The problem is that he now values clever gimmicks over a good story. He needs to go back to what made his earlier episodes good.

Neither did blink :worry:

Was the music louder than the dialogue for you guys?

The US broadcast was pretty loud last night

Yeah the audio balance was off a bit, the dialogue was a bit quiet.

Davros didn't help by having his hand over his mouth :joker:

So perched for tonight :flutter:

Hopefully it lives up to the first part- very positive reviews :fc:

Every review I've read bar one has said it's much better than the first part. Apparently which sounds amazing :amazed:

Can't wait.

Don't get why some people hated on last weeks episode, it was a pretty straightforward plot, no massive twists. Only people who would be confused is those who have no idea who Davros is.

Last week was an absolutely fantastic episode. Say what you like about Moffat but his writing for Davros was spot on.
Skaro being back was a great move that I'm surprised never happened sooner.

I can't wait for the Doctor and Davros tonight
