Wow, this episode was amazing! Even before the Cyberman reveal, the creepiness factor made this one to be one of the best Doctor Who episodes in recent memory. Stellar acting, especially from Jodie, lots of humor, which is something that was kind of lacking lately, and THAT ending. One of the best episodes of Doctor Who in years!

Arguably even worse than Orphan 55

After how good the previous 2 episodes were, I genuinely started to regain my hopes for the show.
Boy, was I wrong..
This was just a boring, convoluted mess. NOTHING happened for the first 30 minutes and the ending was obviously as preachy as you can imagine coming from the Chibnall era of Doctor Who.
At least Orphan 55 had some redeeming features, like actually having villains and nice location, this one was just terrible.

Yep, the first 2 episodes are quitre mediocre, especially if you're not into typical teen dramas, as they mostly serve building up characters, but the series quickly picks up pace. It is in episode 3 when the show truly finds its way, and episodes 4-6 are just really, really good in showing the naivity of teen rebellion.
Keep in mind, however, that this show is NOT similar to the movie from 2008 or the book. It is just loosely based, and tells much more about naive idealism than about left-wing extremism. In fact, I'd say the show is more critical of the far-right than left wing.
Give this series another chance, because it truly does pick up and deserves a season 2.

SPOILER: This episode as a season finale was a joke. As a regular episode it would be mediocre, but now...I am extremely disappointed by it.
Medical case- nothing really interesting, besides the fact that the patient was a performance artist. And I didn't like her because she lied about her symptoms.
Hilson- Not too much Wilson in this episode, except for the ending, and it was again only moralizing.
Huddy- The beginning was even O.K in this episode. Too bad that the writers ruined everything by giving cuddy new boyfriend. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a huddy, I think that getting Huddy into the show was not a good idea, but I just couldn't stand her new boyfriend. Overall, besides the first dialogue I liked only the " You wanna know how I Feel" Line.
This episode is really the weakest season finale, and I can't give it a higher rating than a 5/10.
