Twice Upon a Time

Without any Shadow of a doubt, its obvious to any Whovian this is the last episode of Doctor Who, The Greatest Sci-Fi Show ever made.

A show i started watching 14 years ago, when i was 8 YEARS OLD!!!, a show that left its mark on me, Sad to see it butchered to pieces after this, but thankfully i have the classics left to watch. Surprisingly Chibnall wrote incredible episodes in the Moffat era, its weird he is the one who destroyed the show and even weirder Russel refused to correct him and help him instead.

Thank u, to everyone who worked on the first 10 seasons of this masterpiece, truly u made an unmatchable Masterpiece.

...... Best of everything

He'll be fondly remembered as one of the best Doctors over the entire history of the series

Fantastic performance from him and his supporting cast.

Very highly recommended.

One thing you may expect from the Doctor Who Christmas special is that it's probably going to be far from special . Not necessarily a criticism because event television up against an event like Christmas might just cancel itself out so as usual keep things light . Set against the backdrop of the first world war we know we're getting something along the lines of Paul McCartney's song the pipes of peace

This isn't what we got . As someone whose interest in the show has weakened season by season I no longer look up information on upcoming episodes which means this addict of the show comes in to an episode as a casual viewer

What we got was an episode slight on plot but was xompensated as a backwards looking love letter to previous decades of the show which is hugely enjoyable. It doesn't always work of course and while David Bradly fills Hartnell's shoes physically his dialogue is unbecoming of the first Doctor. This sums up the problem of the Moffat era , You could cast Daniel Day Lewis in the lead role and he'd be ineffective in the role due to the writing. What makes this more irritating is how good Capaldi is in this episode and once again you're struck how good the Capaldi era could have been. Once again a lost opportunity . Not to be negative as a fan I understood all the in jokes and thoroughly enjoyed the nostalgia bordering on meta-fiction

And so we enter a new era for the show . With Chibnall we will probably get traditional linear storytelling with a non traditional -- that is a female - lead in the role as The Doctor . Now the shock of the casting from Summer has worn off I'm not as pessimistic as I was so here's to the future of DOCTOR WHO , the greatest show in the universe

This was a very good episode, worth the wait. The whole transition to Jodie's doctor doesn't overshadow the episode. I hate that it was announced ahead of time like it was because we obviously knew how it's going to end, just not the road that was taking us there. Peter & David were fantastic, as usual. It was nice to see a few old friends along the way as well. A solid send off for the guy who has replaced Tom Baker as MY Doctor.

Capaldi made the role all his own (he was quite dislikeable in his first season though), Once the moon birthed a thing and was flown, The hybrid made no sense, The forest was too dense, Skovox Blitzer too daft to condone (as were the sleep monsters).

The breakout was pure genius, Dalek sewers creating new genus, The monks hypnotised, The Master disguised, Rassilon forced to leave and egress.

Mr. Pink had potential to grow, Clara Oswald a precious cargo, Bill brought us perspective, Made time more connective, Nardole always full of gusto.

Missy stole the show as the Master, Hat's off to the person that cast her, The sparring as good, As it possibly could, Where will it all go from hereafter.

A change is as good as a rest, Let's hope Jodie is one of the best, With a new innovator, Just where will he take her, New companions alongside and abreast.
