Ascension of the Cybermen

Great episode, far superior to any of the others this season, the Cybermen are at their terrifying best

This is probably one of the best written doctor who episode in the Chris chibnal era. It's also one of the best looking doctor who episode. The directing and the production design Is brilliant as well as the cgi. It was good to see the doctor show her darker side instead of being an all known hero than she has been recently and it was good to see her genuinely not know what to do next. The one problem I had was the change in pacing between the two stories. It had the same problem as resolution when there was two stories both with completly different pacing which can be a bit draughting when one second its a small village and the next it's full of explosions. Other than that and some exposition it's fine

Blimey! Another solid episode - everything is shaping up for an excellent finale...hopefully the quality is maintained.

You have to contrast, penultimates past, the last one just wasn't a blast (the oratorical frog). Alas, while this gave us more, you couldn't give it a score, that would indicate close to top drawer. Although, it leaves the boundary open, albeit shaded by a curtain, outcome still dubiously uncertain (the past suggests). Let's wait and see, where the Master takes thee, while he chuckles away tee hee hee!

Where the HELL has THIS Chris Chibnall been!? Why can't we see more of him instead of the writer we're usually lumped with? I'm floored.

"Ascension of The Cybermen" was surprisingly BRILLIANT.

Phenomenal direction, stunning production design, uncharacteristically impressive writing, great cinematography & cinematic visual effects; this is what we've been wanting from the show for SO LONG but never got until now... A story with character, great science fiction, heightened personal stakes, a genuinely threatening villain; if anything, this episode has proven the creators ARE CAPABLE of pulling off this sort of thing so why it's taken them this long, I have no idea but let's hope from now on, it'll continue - & just savour this moment of bliss while it lasts...
