Caught up with this week's Doctor Who episode, and I... have thoughts. Lots of things I liked, but not my favourite of the season. It was good to see Ruby and her family again, and also to see how UNIT operates when the Doctor isn't there, setting up the spinoff nicely. Really looking forward to seeing more of those characters.
On the other hand, parts of the plot felt weak. Things happened way too easily, and escalated and deescalated pretty fast too. I thought the themes it tackled with how certain social media personas and alt-right grifters are responsible for the spread of disinformation were 100% spot on, but the way everything played out felt a bit sloppy.
Tl;dr, I liked what the episode had to say, but found the execution a bit lacklustre. At the same time I'm very here for Ncuti's speech at the end of the episode and for Kate Stewart's zero-nonsense, entering a grey area, badass approach to handling things.
