I'm just gonna say it. Apart from a couple of excellent episodes, that was a pretty dire season.

Shut up, I'm too annoyed about Bill

[Rob!]

She left the doctor lying on the floor to go and get laid!!

I dont know why they bothered having a companion this series if it wasnt permanent.

You could understand Donna as the actress was a big name but not this one

Erm he allowed her heart to be burned away, the rest of her organs to be harvested and turned her into a Cyberman. I'd bloody kill him myself if I were her.

What's that got to do with it?

Clara/Jenna was pretty unusual in how long she stayed.

Martha only did one series. And it was 99% obvious Bill would only have one series to fill the gap until Chibnall's era anyway.

Why did people pick Raph he isn't two faced at all

[Denver]

They do the dynamic for no reason they could have just kept Matt Lucas

Well when he regenerates he'll have a second face so he kind of is?

I missed this part of the episode

You know who was two faced this episode? The Master

The "dynamic" is changing anyway. It's the end of Moffat and Capaldi's time.

[Marsh.]

Don't you just love the subtlety Moffat conveyed of the Master stabbing himself in the back.

I think they should explore a male companion

I wouldn't mind them mixing it up but it's hard to say until we know who the new Doctor is.

Personally, I think it's the male/female double act that makes it work. Hence why most of the male companions have been an extension of the female like Rory and Mickey.

If you had two guys leading the show or two females it loses something.

So, if the new Doctor is a woman then go for it.

If you want to see the Doctor exploring his male companion then you should probably go and read some slashfic

[Marsh.]

It just shows how much the quality of Moffat's work changes as in the last week I think I watched "World Enough and Time" about 6 times in total? I can honestly say, apart from a couple of scenes I want to go back and watch just to clarify what on earth was happening, I have no desire to actually re-watch "The Doctor Falls" again.

Given that cliffhanger, the similar one with John Hurt had me excited for the 50th, but it seems the Christmas Special Moffat's going to disappear up his own arse with his smug cleverness again.

We're ready for you Chibbers!!!!

Well I thought that was beautiful- a great end to a great series! I actually loved Bill's ending too, it balanced out a dark episode.

Overall, I really enjoyed this series. It was nothing groundbreaking but I think we needed a lighter series after everything Moffat has thrown at us. I really hope he will stay on to write an occasional episode, as much as I'm looking forward to Chibnall.

[Marsh.]

From what he's said he's leaving DW completely so won't go back to an occasional episode writer. Like RTD had, I think he's had enough.

Maybe in a few years though.

I don't mind it as much with RTD. For me his strength was the characters and the story arcs. Moffatt struggled with characterisation and barely produced a satisfying arc, but his individual episode ideas are brilliant. e.g. The Silence, Weeping Angels, Clockwork Droids

[Scarlett.]

I really liked this finale, it felt like it lived up to what happened in the first part. Completely different to what happened with Heaven Sent and Hell Bent.

[Ashley.]

I liked the episode. Bill should've just stayed as a cyberman, though.

It's pretty cool they brought the First Doctor back, but how old must he be now?!
