A frustrating watch, some good content though.
The Doctor is face to face with Swarm and Azure, and time is beginning to run wild.
The first half an hour, I honestly didn't know what on Earth was happening, I found it confusing, over complicated, messy, and sadly some of the most cheap looking special effects I've seen since about 1988. Way too many characters and villains, too many strands.
The second half of it was better, it somehow looked sharper, the content had a bit more meat on the bones, Dan was great, and I thought Yaz way more interesting.
The trailers for this quite literally showed all of the best parts, last week's trailer was a bit too much of a spoiler, this went off before they showed it.
I'm a big fan of Craig Parkinson, he's a cracking actor, can't say I found this Zoolander type bad guy particularly good though. The quality definitely came from Barbara Flynn, although she's another character we know nothing about.
I really wanted to love this, especially after last week's, I just found it too frustrating, 5/10.
