Doctor Who: The Robot Revolution

Ncuti's Doctor is a delight as always.

Belinda is great, and feels like a Classic Who companion. That no-nonsense attitude and just rolling with what's happening in the moment, rather than questioning everything. (Like there's no: 'Why do they all speak English?')

But - this episode should have been a 4 episode Base Under Siege Classic Who serial.

I sincerely hope nobody DIED when he shorted out the electricity supply for that entire hospital tower...😬

Sasha: Rescue me and take me to the stars!
Me: Welp, she's dead.
Sasha: *dies not even five seconds later*
Me: There you go.

I got blindsided earlier this week by the news that it was back this weekend. I thought we had until May!??

It's so weird being this checked out on Doctor Who.

Yeah. I have accepted that I'll never be as interested as I was during the original RTD/Moffat era but I still enjoy watching.
