    Worse Finale Ever.

    What was that. I'm speechless and that's not in a complimenting way.

    An incredibly bland episode.

    Honestly, this episode was just bland. I was engaged throughout because I was waiting for the big reveal, the big twist, the epic fight, some epic monologue, anything. Nothing happened. It was just a big buildup to nothing.

    The season was bland for the most part as well. The only episodes I would consider rememberable are Rosa and It Takes You Away.

    Wait, was this the finale of this season?

    This was actually underwhelming! What the H--- is this? Please pick up the broken pieces of Doctor Who and glue them back together for the new years special.

    Metaphorical Tooth Decay...

    Nothing here to make you smile, worst finale by a country mile. Contrasting this to previous ends, mind bogglingly bad, no dividends. The man in charge has no idea, he's turned gold into diarrhoea. About the villain what can you say, must suffer badly from tooth decay.

    Fitting finale to a terrible season

    The writing and plot lines have been terrible all season. The finale was tepid.

      When the companions are first being chased by the robots in the ship, they are holding torches. As they run down the corridor, however, they are holding the robots' guns, which they never picked up and when they enter into open space they are back with torches.
