And looking back on the finale, it's illustrated my issues. I have no problems with Chibnall's ideas but he struggles massively to turn them into stories.

The "story" is basically characters explaining sh*t all the time. Isn't the first rule of screenwriting show not tell?

Why not open the show with a cold open of the Timeless Child? Did we need the Master laboriously explaining it?
