Fugitive of the Judoon

This was MASSIVE!!! I didn't expect this episode to be that good and have so many surprises and twists. Wow. Finally Chibs! Btw who else think that this episode was secretly written by Moffat 😂😁

They really need to get rid of these 3 companions because jodie is so good on her own, every episode where they get separated becomes 10x better.

No Spoilers, but there are 3 points of this episode which people will point to and claim it means doctor who is BACK:

• The reveal of the Judoon Fugitive
• What happens to the companions in the middle of the episode
• The message / teaser of things to come (which can now be added to the list of other Macguffins which have been introduced this season)

The big problem is that there's nothing new in here at all. The Judoon are a Russell T Davies creation, the mid episode twist is also a throwback to Davies, the revelation of the Fugutive has been done NUMEROUS times and the message is a throwback yet again.

It feels like this show is just starting to throw fanservice at the wall to keep people entertained, rather than trying to think of something new and fun.

I liked this episode, firstly it was filmed in Gloucester which is a few miles up the road from where I live.

The story began well, with the return of those lovable rogues the Judoon. I liked the banter between the Doctor and the judoon. I won't delve too deeply into the plot, because I don't want to spoil it for those who haven't seen it. There some excellent twists to this story, for the first time in many episodes, I couldn't stop watching.

I wonder what will happen next?

Actually felt like doctor who. Good characters and plot twists.
