As someone who didn't really like the Chris Chibnall era, I was quite happy to hear Russell T Davies was coming back. While "The Star Beast" was better than most Chris Chibnall era episodes, I was left feeling a little disappointed as I felt like it was 'only ok' and I had prepared myself for something great.
"Wild Blue Yonder" on the other hand, was incredible. It's a very weird, imaginative piece of cosmic sci-fi horror that had me on the edge of my seat the entire time.
The villains are copied versions of the doctor and Donna, and they are intimidating as hell. We get strange explanations for what they are, how they work, there's a constant sense of threat and urgency.
This is weird, freaky and makes you genuinely fear for the safety of these characters you love. It comes up with nifty sci-fi ideas to explain how the things we see in the story work, and it's oozing imagination.
This is the best Doctor Who story to air since World Enough and Time.
